Is there an ASP.NET pagination control (Not MVC)?

Question

I've got a search results page that basically consists of a repeater with content in it. What I need is a way to paginate the results. Getting paginated results isn't the problem, what I'm after is a web control that will display a list of the available paged data, preferably by providing the number of results and a page size

Answer 1

Repeaters don't do this by default.

However, GridViews do.

Personally, I hate GridViews, so I wrote a Paging/Sorting Repeater control.

Basic Steps:

• Subclass the Repeater Control
• Add a private PagedDataSource to it
• Add a public PageSize property
• Override Control.DataBind
  • Store the Control.DataSource in the PagedDataSource.
  • Bind the Control.DataSource to PagedDataSource
• Override Control.Render
  • Call Base.Render()
  • Render your paging links.
