the code behind ::

public partial class showNews : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    static int index;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Managers.News nn = new Managers.News();

        hf_unitId.Value = "1";

        if (!IsPostBack)
        {

                lbl_title.Text = nn.GetTheLatestNews(1).Rows[0][1].ToString();
                string newsId = nn.GetTheLatestNews(1).Rows[0][0].ToString();
                string photoName = p.GetAllPhotos(int.Parse(newsId)).Rows[0][2].ToString();
                string dir = "NewsImages" + "/" + "UnitNum" + "1" + "_" + "NewsNum" + newsId + "/";
                img_news.ImageUrl = dir + photoName;
                lbl_newsDate.Text = nn.GetTheLatestNews(1).Rows[0][9].ToString();
                txt_desc.Text = nn.GetTheLatestNews(1).Rows[0][5].ToString();

        }
    }
    /* =========================================================================== */
    protected void lv_news_ItemCommand(object sender, ListViewCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        Managers.News nn = new Managers.News();
        Managers.Photo p = new Managers.Photo();
        index = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);


        if (e.CommandName == "others")
        {
            int newsId = int.Parse(((HiddenField)lv_news.Items[index].FindControl("hf_newsId")).Value);
            lbl_title.Text = nn.GetNewsInList(newsId)[0].EnglishNewsTitle;
            string photoName = p.GetAllPhotos(newsId).Rows[0][2].ToString();
            string dir = "NewsImages" + "/" + "UnitNum" + "1" + "_" + "NewsNum" + newsId + "/";
            img_news.ImageUrl = dir + photoName;
            lbl_newsDate.Text = nn.GetNewsInList(newsId)[0].ShowingDate;
            txt_desc.Text = nn.GetNewsInList(newsId)[0].EnglishText;

        }
    }
    protected void DataPager1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        lv_news.DataBind();
    }

the problem is appeared when i have added the pager to my list view ,,i have out of range for index exception …
how to determine the page iam in and specify the right index either i use list view or grid view or other such controls..

Answer 1

Finally i fix my problem.

The problem is in the following line::

CommandArgument ='<%# Container.DataItemIndex%>'

---

the command argument not reset itself every time when move from page to another page..

• The answer is ::(in the case of
  ListView):

CommandArgument ='<%# ((ListViewDataItem)Container).DisplayIndex%>'

---

• The answer is :: (in the case of
  GridView):

CommandArgument='<%#((GridViewRow)Container).RowIndex%>'
