Wondered if anyone else has come up with a solution for this.

When Adding/Editing an article, clicking insert/update reloads the page but the article fields are all blank due to DetailsView going into Insert Mode.

I find this a bit frustrating so would rather it just post back to the article i.e. ShowArticle.aspx?ID=....

Has anyone done something similar. Just curious as to the best event handler to use for this, I thought the Updated event of my details view.

Thanks,
Retro

Yes, that'd be the place to do it.

Be sure to add the following declaration to your DetailsView in the aspx page:

OnItemUpdated="dvwArticle_ItemUpdated"

Then, in the code behind, add the following event handler:

protected void dvwArticle_ItemUpdated(object sender, DetailsViewUpdatedEventArgs e)
  {
      this.Response.Redirect(String.Format("~/ShowArticle.aspx?ID={0}", e.Keys["ID"].ToString()), true);
  }


You could also do something similar with ItemInserted if you want.
