<DetailDataSource> tag of the <xmod:template> tag. Typically, the detail command will include one or more <parameter> tags that identify which record should be retrieved. The detail control should use the same parameter names and fill them with valid values, typically from the current record. That's why detail controls are typically found in <ItemTemplate> and <AlternatingItemTemplate> tags.
