Identify wich button was pressed!

[bredal Jensen]

Hello,

I have a web form with three buttons among other things.
I need to know wich one of my buttons was pressed .
The problem is that i want my page to be valid before any of the
buttons "click" routines can do some processing , meaning that they have the
"Causevalidation" property set to true.

The validation routines depends upon which of the buttons was pressed.
How can i identify them in my validation routine?

Thanks in advance.

Why not simply check Page.IsValid in the click routines before doing the
processing?

Wire up each of the buttons to the same event handler. When you get in
there the button that was clicked would have passed itself through the
postback. Getting the objects UniqueID will give you the Id of the button
that was clicked. Alternatively wireup a handler for each button and have
then all call your validation method.

If you use Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"] and html buttons you can understand
on submit which control was causin the submit

That does not solve my problem as i explained earlier.

I need to do validation before any processing in my "click routine" .
The problem is that Validation depends upon which button was clicked.

I hope you understands the problem.

Check out "MattC" reply , the problem can be solved by delegates
as he suggested....
Many Thanks
