</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>

 protected void ddlist_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        ContentPlaceHolder mcon = new ContentPlaceHolder();
        mcon = (ContentPlaceHolder)Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolder1");
        LinkButton lnk = new LinkButton();
        lnk = (LinkButton)e.Item.FindControl("lnkbtn");
        int id = (int.Parse(lnk.CommandArgument));
        ICollection Catlist = ProductManager.Get_Categories(int.Parse(Session["check"].ToString()), id);
        if (Catlist.Count > 0)
        {
            //Label lbl = new Label();
            //lbl = (Label)ddlist.FindControl("lblh");

            //lbl.Text += ">" + lnk.Text;
            j = j + 1;
            Session["check"] = j.ToString();
            Response.Write(Session["check"].ToString());
            ddlist.DataSource = ((DataRowCollection)Catlist)[0].Table;
            ddlist.DataBind();
            for (int i = 0; i <= ddlist.Items.Count - 1; i++)
            {
                LinkButton hyp = new LinkButton();
                hyp = (LinkButton)ddlist.Items[i].FindControl("lnkbtn");
                hyp.Text = ((DataRowCollection)Catlist)[0].Table.Rows[i].ItemArray[1].ToString();
               
             
            }
