ASP.net Repeater get current index, pointer, or counter

the question is really simple. Is there a way to access the current pointer/counter for an asp Repeater control.

I have a list with items and I would like one of the repeaters columns (it repeats and html table) to be something like ...

Item 1 | some info

Item 2 | some info

... and so on

1 and 2 being the counter.

To display the item number on the repeater you can use the Container.ItemIndex property.

<asp:repeater id="rptRepeater" runat="server">
    <itemtemplate>
        Item <%# Container.ItemIndex + 1 %>| <%# Eval("Column1") %>
    </itemtemplate>
    <separatortemplate>
        <br />
    </separatortemplate>
</asp:repeater>

Add a label control to your Repeater's ItemTemplate. Handle OnItemCreated event.

ASPX

<asp:Repeater ID="rptr" runat="server" OnItemCreated="RepeaterItemCreated">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <div id="width:50%;height:30px;background:#0f0a0f;">
            <asp:Label ID="lblSr" runat="server" 
               style="width:30%;float:left;text-align:right;text-indent:-2px;" />
            <span 
               style="width:65%;float:right;text-align:left;text-indent:-2px;" >
            <%# Eval("Item") %>
            </span>
        </div>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

Code Behind:

    protected void RepeaterItemCreated(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
    {
        Label l = e.Item.FindControl("lblSr") as Label;
        if (l != null)
            l.Text = e.Item.ItemIndex + 1+"";
    }
