CheckBox inside a Repeater?

[HockeyFan]

I'm still learning .Net and have an ASP.Net app that I'm working on.
On this particular page, I need to put a bunch of checkboxes on the side of
the page, and the text for each is derived from the database. So I can't
just hardcode the checkboxes. I'll have any number of them, and possibly
even 0.
I am told that you use a Repeater control for this, but beyond that, am not
sure what to do. Can someone show me?

There was no way for you to know it, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a newsgroup where the dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

Are you sure you don't want a CheckBoxList? That is a control that can be
bound to a data source ...
