Bind Popup Control to Data

• Jul 02, 2021

Although you can create windows and specify their properties manually, you can also bind to a data source to populate windows. You can bind ASPxPopupControl to any object that implements the IListSource, IEnumerable, or IDataSource interface (for example, SqlDataSource, XmlDataSource).

Run Demo: ASPxPopupControl - Data Binding

Use any of the following ASPxPopupControl properties to specify the data source:

• ASPxDataWebControlBase.DataSource to programmatically supply a data object.
• ASPxDataWebControl.DataSourceID to define a declarative data source.

The image below demonstrates the path to bind an ASPxPopupControl to an XML file.

ASPxPopupControl automatically creates a PopupWindow object for each record in the data source and retrieves their property values from corresponding items.

Additionally, you can handle the ASPxPopupControl’s DataBound, DataBinding and WindowDataBound events.
