“LinkTitle” column from event list dose not render when added to a repeater control?

Question

I have the following code to render the event Titles (the LinkTitle Column) in a custom web part:

<asp:Label ID="Title" runat="server" CssClass="titleStyle" Text='<%#Eval("LinkTitle")%>'></asp:Label><br />

It (the link to the Event List Item) shows up underlined but does not let the user edit.

Is there another way for me to specify it?

Answer 1

Please consider evolving your other questions rather than posting essentially the same question in different ways:

• How do I retrieve the "Title (linked to edit)" column from event list to display in my custom web part.

• An example of databinding the repeater control?

The LinkTitle and LinkTitleNoMenu fields are special "Computed" fields in SharePoint. They are rendered using the XSL transformation in SharePoint 2010. Please refer to this documentation on the topic: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff604021.aspx

This is why I recommended that you leverage the XSL rendering system in the other questions to accomplish this task. Otherwise you would use code similar to what I provided in the "an-example-of-databinding-the-repeater-control" question.
