I'm not exactly sure what your problem is because you haven't stated it; but, MsgBox is not available in web applications.

You may want to consider placing a Label on the page and setting that Label's Text property to whatever it is you need to display:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
Sub ridgenerator(ByVal a As String)

        Session("rid") = a

        messageLabel.Text = "gg"

        GridView2.DataBind()

End Sub

@Frinavale
i m sorry for not being so clear actually my function is not being called from the grid view on the click event of that linkbutton.
i just want you all to tell me the procedure by which i can call a function on a click event from the gridview.
And i m using web application there is no problem with the msgbox the only thing is
"HOW TO CALL THAT FUNCTION FROM GRIDVIEW USING LINKBUTTON?"
i did the folowing last time but didnt succeed

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton5" runat="server" Font-Underline="False" Text='<%# Eval("name") %>' OnClientClick='<%# folderidgenerator(Eval("f_id")) %>' >

</asp:LinkButton>

any help?

I'm not sure if the LinkButton has been automatically generated for you (like the LinkButtons in the Header Row of the GridView used for sorting...or the edit/update/delete buttons).....

But, you should look into using the RowCommand Event. The RowCommand Event is raised whenever a control within the GridView raises an event.

Please note that you have to configure your GridView to use this event:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
 <asp:GridView ID="GridView2" 

               ...

              OnRowCommand="ridgenerator"

             runat="server">
