Property Value

Type: System..::.String

The name of the field to bind to the ImageUrl property of each image in an ImageField object.

Use the DataImageUrlField property to specify the name of the field to bind to the ImageUrl property of each image in an ImageField object. The specified field must contain the URLs for the images to display in the ImageField object. You can optionally format the URL values by setting the DataImageUrlFormatString property.

Note:

When the filed value is nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), an image cannot be displayed. You can display an alternate image for nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) field values by setting the NullImageUrl property. Instead of an alternate image, you can display alternate text by setting the NullDisplayText property.

The following example code demonstrates how to use the DataImageUrlField property to specify the name of the field to bind to the ImageUrl property of each image in an ImageField object.
