XML

<asp:DataList ID="DataList1" runat="server" RepeatColumns="3" style="z-index: 108; left: 733px; position: absolute; top: 72px" >
          <ItemTemplate><asp:Image ID="uximage" runat="server" /></ItemTemplate>
        </asp:DataList>

'

Image im = (Image)DataList1.FindControl("uximage");
im.ImageUrl = "Handler.ashx";
