Why not go for something like a master-child relationship. Do you require further interaction with the child data you are showing to the user? Please specify the nature if so.
Assuming that the child data that you are going to show is simple data meant to simply convey related data to user, you can go for a combination jQuery, and repeaters to accomplish your objective.
The first repeater you show your master data. Against each row in your repeater you show a show button here. You do not need a linkbutton here; just a simple anchor will do. You'd have to write js in it to toggle the correct child data.
All the child data should also be repeated. But not shown to the user at first. Only that particular child item should be shown - this is suitably triggered by the show anchor which is clicked on the master repeater. Rest is all js/css.
Below is a link to a sample project which demonstrates the concept.
