How to add click function to a dynamically created Button in WebFormapplicat ion?


I am trying to create a bookstore WebApplication using c#. I can
display the books (obtained from sql server) on a table in a WebForm.
At the end of each row, I would like to add "add to cart" button.
Therefore, I use

Button bt_add = new Button();
bt_add.Text = "Add to cart";

and put it in a cell which is later placed in each table row. The
Buttons display fine on the WebForm. However, I don't know how to add
the Button_Click function for each of the Button I created since I don't
know the total number of books in advance. Can anyone help me get "add
to cart" button to work?

Note: I try clicking on each Button, the WebForm page loads back to its
original stage (Page_Load function) and my search result is gone.

Thanks,

Hallo NG, I created a Button with Click-Event dynamically: System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button bt_1 = new Button(); bt_1.Click += new EventHandler(bt_1_click); and I implemented the Funktion bt_1_click in which I created a second Button dynamically too. System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button bt_2= new Button();

I am trying to handle a button click event, which updates a web control table with data. The button is dynamically created in the table itself. When I call updateTable() in the Page_Load the new data from the button is not available at this time as to allow the table to properly update. So basically, I need to call UpdateTable() twice, once from page load and once from button. This causes problems with my application, and I was trying...

PROBLEM: When a user control is loaded into a PlaceHolder control more than once, the events do not fire on the first click of a control on the dynamically loaded user control.

In priciple the process is as follows: When I first create the page I analyse data and if appropriate: - add one or more row to a table in the webform - add cells to the rows - add a button (myButton) where the user can change some settings. - enable/disable some other buttons to the form This is all done in a function...

Hi, I have built a custom control button which inherits from WebControl and implements IPostBackEventHandler. The control also declares an event Click and provides a method OnClick which invokes the registered delegate. All is fine with my control until I try to add it to the page dynamically in a code behind event handler and wire-up the click event using the normal syntax such that; protected void btnNew_Click(object sender, EventArgs...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
