Ha! I've answered my own question - thought I'd share with y'all. The
trick is, in fact, in the ItemCreated event of the Repeater control. The
RepeaterItemEventArgs passed in contains an Item and this Item contains a
DataItem. I tried casting this to all sorts of stuff without success
(MSDN wasn't much help, explaining it as a "data item"). I finally gained
access to the Item.DataItem by using DataBinder.Eval (duh) - so...
protected void FormatRepeaterItem(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
int a1 = (int)DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem,"FooCount");
if(a1 > 4)
{
Label lab = new Label();
lab.Text = "<img src='mygif.gif'>";
e.Item.Controls.Add(lab);
)
}
