Hi,

I have the code here as in the following:

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %>

<script  runat="server">
sub Page_Load
if Not Page.IsPostBack then
   dim mycdcatalog=New DataSet
   mycdcatalog.ReadXml(MapPath("alice_music_list.xml"))
   cdcatalog.DataSource= mycdcatalog
   cdcatalog.DataBind()
end if
end sub
</script>

<html>
<body>

<form runat="server">
<asp:Repeater id="cdcatalog" runat="server">

<HeaderTemplate>
<table style=";font-family:Arial;width:56%;margin:1em 5% 5% 1em" border="1">
<tr style="background-color:black;color:white">
<th align="left">Title</th>
<th align="left">Date Added</th>
</tr>
</HeaderTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>                                        
  <tr style="background-color:#FFFFCC;color:red">
<td><%#Container.DataItem("title")%> </td>
<td>
 <asp:Repeater ID="Repeater_a" DataSource="<%#XPathSelect("song/date")%>"
  <ItemTemplate><%#XPath("@added")%></ItemTemplate>
</td> 
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>

<SeparatorTemplate>
<tr>
<td colspan="3"></td>
</tr>
</SeparatorTemplate>

<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>

</asp:Repeater>
</form>
</body>
</html>

However, this is what I get:

Compiler Error Message: CS1002: ; expected

Have I done something wrong here?
I tried some other apps and it does execute properly.

Thanks for your help.

<asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server" DataSourceID="XmlDataSource1">
        <ItemTemplate>        
                <p>
                    <%# XPath("Name") %> - <%# XPath("Surname") %>
                </p>        
        </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:Repeater>
        <asp:XmlDataSource ID="XmlDataSource1" runat="server" DataFile="~/file.xml" XPath="//Person"></asp:XmlDataSource>

Thanks, I just found out I also need to take out the subroutine at the beginning of the script, or it would not work.
