Remarks

Use the PagerTemplate property to define a custom user interface (UI) for paging data. The PagerTemplate template usually contains navigation controls to page through data. It can also be used to display information about the underlying data source, such as the total number of records or the current page number.

To create a custom template declaratively, put a PagerTemplate element inside the TemplatePagerField object. You can then add the contents to the PagerTemplate element.

You can reference the DataPager control in binding expressions in the PagerTemplate template by using the Container property. This property provides access to the properties of the DataPager control, which includes the StartRowIndex, MaximumRows, and TotalRowCount properties.
