Does anyone know of a way of hiding a column in an asp.net listview?

Question

I know you can put <% if %> statements in the ItemTemplate to hide controls but the column is still there. You cannot put <% %> statements into the LayoutTemplate whic

Answer 1

The ListView gives you full control about how the data is rendered to the client. You specify the Layout Template, and give a placeholder which will be where each item is injected.

The output of the below will give you a table, and each item will be a new TR.

Notice the use of runat='server' and visible ='<%# %>'

    
        
        
    
    
        
            
                <%# Eval("SuperCoolIcon") %>
            
            
                <%# Eval("Name") %>
            
            
                <%# Eval("Age") %>
