Event Type

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to declaratively specify and code an event handler for the ServerClick event. When the HtmlAnchor control is clicked, a message is displayed.

ASP.NET (C#)

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="True" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > 

<head>
    <title> HtmlAnchor ServerClick Event Example </title>
<script runat="server">

      void HtmlAnchor_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
         
         Message.InnerHtml = "Thank you for clicking the HtmlAnchor control.";

      }

   </script>

</head>

<body>

   <form id="form1" runat="server">

      <h3> HtmlAnchor ServerClick Event Example </h3>

      <a id="AnchorButton"
         onserverclick="HtmlAnchor_Click"
         runat="server">

         Click Here

      </a>

      <br /><br />

      <span id="Message" runat="server"/>

   </form>

</body>
</html>

The following code example modifies the previous example to programmatically specify and code an event handler for the ServerClick event.

ASP.NET (C#)

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="True" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > 

<head>
    <title> HtmlAnchor ServerClick Event Example </title>
<script runat="server">

      void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
       
         // Create an EventHandler delegate for the method you want to handle the event
         // and then add it to the list of methods called when the event is raised.
         AnchorButton.ServerClick += new System.EventHandler(this.HtmlAnchor_Click);

      }

      void HtmlAnchor_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
         
         Message.InnerHtml = "Thank you for clicking the HtmlAnchor control.";

      }

   </script>

</head>

<body>

   <form id="form1" runat="server">

      <h3> HtmlAnchor ServerClick Event Example </h3>

      <a id="AnchorButton"
         runat="server">

         Click Here

      </a>

      <br /><br />

      <span id="Message" runat="server"/>

   </form>

</body>
</html>

Remarks

The ServerClick event is raised when the HtmlAnchor control is clicked. This server event causes a round trip to occur from the client to the server and back.
