HyperLink from GridView

Using ASP.Net 2.0 and VS 2005.
I have a search page that has server controls, (textboxes, dropdownlists,
etc.) that are used for searching and returning data in a GridView. One of
the GridView columns is a bound HyperLink that sends me to a new aspx page.
However, when I try to use Request.Form to get contents of the controls in
the search page all requests are blank. Is this because the hyperlink does
not do a Redirect? and thus the Request.Form is not available? If so, is
there an alternative way to accomplish this? I really like using the
hyperlink. Thanks.

Mark,
I read this but it references a LinkButton which I am not using. I am using
a HyperlInk control bound to a datafield in a gridView. There are no
CommandName and CommandArgument options in the properties of this control.
Am i missing something? Thanks.

Yes - use a LinkButton...

I am trying that but the SelectedIndexCh anged does not seem to fire. I
created a sub that would set the value from the row.cells(1) and nothing
happens, the screen just blinks. Doesn't clicking on this LinkButton select
the current row?

That's right.

No. You need to specifiy the value as the LinkButton's CommandArgument .
Sep 22 '06 #6
OK, I got it to work. I bound the CommandName and CommandArgument to the 2
column values I needed to pass and it worked. Thank you.

I have a sample of an unbound (autogeneratecolumns is true) sortable/pagable datagrid that works. I want to change one of the columns to a hyperlink. The examples I find use a bound column. I can get this to work; however, the column header on the datagrid is not a link/sortable. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.

Hi I have a GridView that is displaying master records. Some of these records have child records. I would like to a column to my master GridView such that for each master record that has detail records, it displays a hyperlink that then takes the user to the details page.

I got into trouble with this problem. The data I am presenting in a GridView control has a column called "Website". That data comes from a stored procedure in SQL Server 2000. Most of them have valid http urls. But some of them say "None" or "Not available". In the GridView, I would like create a hyperlink for those valid http urls only, and simply plain-output those which say "None" or "Not available".
