Bind Value to WebTextEditor When Used As Template
WebTextEditor can be used as editing tool in many scenarios. If you have details view or other data list control, WebTextEditor can be used as the item or edit template and the related data can be displayed in WebTextEditor.
DetailsView control is used to demonstrate this capability. After it is bound properly to Employees table, users can navigate through employee data using the navigation links provided. Data can be bound to WebTextEditor when it is used as item or edit template. Simply set the Content property to the related data.
