ASp.net Ajax 4.0 , Master-Details View with the DataView , Part 2

If you are just tuning in , you can read Part 1 here

Parent Entity Child Entity
List
Properties
       ListID
       ListTitle
Associations
       ListElements
ListElement
Properties
       ListElementText
       ListElementID
Associations
       List

In the last part , we looked at using the Events from the DataView to render another template
for the inner details. Looking further , I discovered that there is a syntax for injecting code into the
template.

The code injected into the template looks like this ..

 <!--*
  //Code
*-->
HTML
<!--*
  //Code
*-->

This looks very similar to the Inline code in aspx pages.

For the Master-Details example as before , the template would look like this ..

To bind all lists and their listElements , the template would look like this ..

 <div id="listTemplate" class="sys-template">
<ul>
    <li>
        <h3>
            {{ ListTitle }}
        </h3>
        <ul>
            <!--*
//Iterate over the ListElements , generating the <li> element for each List Element
for(var index=0;index< ListElements.length;index++) {
var listElement = ListElements[index];
*-->
            <li>{{ listElement.ListElementText }} </li>
            <!--*
}
*-->
        </ul>
    </li>
</ul>
</div>
 

And then , you are done !!! 
You will need the following script files .

Complete sample Code is below , I swapped out the DataService code for local data .
