I want to execute if statement in Repeater itemtemplate like below

C#

<Repeater>
   <Itemtemplate>
      <% if(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "item").ToString() == "something") { %>

      <% } %>
   <Itemtemplate>
</Repeater>

the code above is wrong, because the DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "item") can't be nested in <% %>, I want to know how can I use Eval items in <% %> block.

You'll want to use one of the events instead of trying to do it in ASPX. For example, you could use the ItemDataBound event:

Read this article about different server tags for including different content - http://weblogs.asp.net/ahmedmoosa/embedded-code-and-inline-server-tags[^]
You problem is that you use <% %> with if (which is good) and with Eval (which is not good). If you have to do it this way (and not using server side events) you have to use some other form of retrieving the value from the data than Eval...
Something like DataTabe.Rows[0]["column"]...
