Configuring Automatic Paging of Content

The ASPX page is as follows:

<mobile:Form id="Form1" Paginate="true" runat="server">

<mobile:List id="List1" runat="server"></mobile:List>

</mobile:Form>

In

<script runat="server" /> block or codebehind:

Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

If Not IsPostBack

Dim count AS Integer

For count = 1 To 100

Dim listItem = New MobileListItem(count.ToString())

List1.Items.Add(listItem)

Next

End If

End Sub

Comments

Because the screens of mobile devices are typically small and cannot display large

amounts of data,ASP.NET mobile controls provide the capability to automatically paginate

across large amounts of data by splitting them into multiple screens.The form control

is an example of a mobile control that contains this functionality.

By setting the Paginate property of the form control, you enable this capability.The

control automatically inserts navigation constructs that are appropriate for the device in

question.This enables the users to page back and forth between multiple screens of data.

The TextView, List, and the ObjectList controls also support internal pagination.
