Within a webpage, upon loading, I fill a dataset with two table with a relation between those tables and then load the data into a repeater with a nested repeater. This can also occur after the user clicks on a button. The data gets loaded from a SQL database and the repeater datasource is set to the dataset after a postback. However, when ItemDataBound occurs the Item.Dataitem is always null.
Why would this occur?
below is my HTML repeater code
<asp:Repeater ID="rptCustomSpaList" runat="server"
onitemdatabound="rptCustomSpaList_ItemDataBound">
<HeaderTemplate>
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
