I want to know where lies the difference between these two.I had a google search on this topic and a lots of replies and each of them tell the same thing:
Eval means one way binding(i.e;readonly)
Bind means two way binding(i.e;both read as well as write the datasource)
but none of them explained it more clearly.all i want to know is how can i use the Bind to update/insert something from the datasource?
I have a dropdownlist that gets data through entity objects, but with a navigation. But I get an error trying to do this.
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlVacancy" DataValueField="ID" DataTextField='<%# Eval("Position.Name") %>'
runat="server" Width="200px"/>
I got the difference between Bind and EVal from here. Bind will do both way reading and writing. And Eval do only reading. So any function only for writing?
