User Control Problem

[Roshawn]

Hi All,

I have created a web user control. This control mimics the numeric pagers
seen on many online bookstores. I made this user control using the
Repeater. It is populated dynamically. Here's my code for its
presentation:

<asp:Repeater id="Repeater1" enableviewstate="False" runat="server">
<HeaderTemplate><div id="pager"></HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate><a href='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Number",
"Results.aspx?page={0}") %>'
runat="server"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Number")
%></a></ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate></div></FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

Using its code-behind file, the control is bound to the data of choice.
When this control is placed on a webform, it does as expected. Everything
works fine and dandy.

However, when I click on one of the anchors, I'd like the selected anchor's
href property to be empty (to prevent further clicking on it until another
anchor is selected). I've noticed that settting the href property to "" or
"#" still allows the anchor to be clicked. This is the only functionality
that is missing from my user control. Could someone please tell me how to
accomplish this?

Thanks,
Roshawn

I'm not sure what your question is.
Do you want the the hyper link not to be clickable so that the user can't
request the page again while the page is reloading?
To do this you have to write some javascript function that takes the page as
a parameter, reload the page with that parmeter and sets some flag which is
checked if the funciton is called again-

hope this helps,
