Help! Having trouble calling codebehind function from repeater results!

[Kent P. Iler]

Hi,

I have a data repeater that is returning a list of events. One of the
things I want to do is give the user a way to edit or delete an event. My
plan was to use an Imagebutton that would invoke a codebehind function that
would either edit or delete the item. My problem is I need to pass the
event_id as a parameter to each of these functions so I know what event to
edit/delete. The error code is complaining about the way I'm trying to pass
the parameter in the repeater results.

Can anyone help with this? I'm including the error code and source below.

Error Code:
----------------------------
http://localhost/BVA/edit_events.aspx(82) : error BC30201: Expression
expected.

AddHandler __ctrl.Click, AddressOf
Me.EditEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_id")%>)
~
http://localhost/BVA/edit_events.aspx(82) : error BC30201: Expression
expected.

RemoveHandler __ctrl.Click, AddressOf
Me.EditEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_id")%>)
~
http://localhost/BVA/edit_events.aspx(84) : error BC30201: Expression
expected.

AddHandler __ctrl.Click, AddressOf
Me.DeleteEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_id")%> )
~
http://localhost/BVA/edit_events.aspx(84) : error BC30201: Expression
expected.

RemoveHandler __ctrl.Click, AddressOf
Me.DeleteEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_id")%> )
----------------------------
Code sample:
----------------------------
<ItemTemplate>
<tr>
<td nowrap class="tableRow">
<%#container.DataItem("event_date")%></td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow">&nbsp;</td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow"><%#container.DataItem("event_name ")%></td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow">&nbsp;</td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow"><asp:ImageButton Runat="server"
ImageUrl="Images/edit.gif"
onclick='EditEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_id ")%>)'></asp:ImageButton><
/td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow">&nbsp;</td>
<td nowrap class="tableRow"><asp:ImageButton Runat="server"
ImageUrl="Images/delete.gif"
onclick='DeleteEvent(<%#container.DataItem("event_ id")%>)'></asp:ImageButton

</td>

</tr>
</ItemTemplate>

Thank you!
