TextView.LoadItems Event

Definition

Occurs when a control is custom-paginated and needs more data. This API is obsolete. For information about how to develop ASP.NET mobile applications, see Mobile Apps & Sites with ASP.NET.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create custom pagination and call the LoadItems method to load a specified number of items per page.

Note

The following code sample uses the single-file code model and may not work correctly if copied directly into a code-behind file. This code sample must be copied into an empty text file that has an .aspx extension. For more information, see ASP.NET Web Forms Page Code Model.

Remarks

When control is custom-paginated, you do not explicitly bind the control. After pagination, the control raises this event, indicating what part of the data is required. The application can handle this event and bind the control with the required data.
