>>Hi Jason - I was curious so I copied your code into a test app and it all seemed to work fine for me:
Thanks. However, I don't think your test is good enough as it does not do what my app actually does, because there is so much more to my UI and the object being created is not a simple inline statement, it's a class that calls another class and so on. But since it works with one repeater and not the other repeater, but still based on the same data provider, the problem to me seems to be related to performance - the repeater in the panel runs before the dp object can be fully created and thus does not render, however, it works in the accordion because the repeater runs later, after the user clicks the accordion and thus the dp object is fully created. Someone must have dealt with this issue before - how do you handle UI rendering before the data is fully formed? I'm assuming this is the problem, I can't come to any other logical explanation. I can post the send the app to someone, but it's not practical to post all the code here.
