Call / Embed Method in ASPX

[Andrew Robinson]

quick question:

I need to call a method from within my ASPX file. What is the syntax? What I
have isn't working.

<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink98" runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%= GetUrl()
%>'>Back to Summary1</asp:HyperLink>

in my cs file:
protected string GetUrl()
{

return "This is a test";

}

thanks:

If this isn't happening during a databound operation, you typically set it
in codebehind.

HyperLink98.NavigateUrl = GetUrl();

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your posting.

The <%= construct can only be used in client script for write some value
from server. The hyperlink control is run at server side.

You can use the <%# construct if it's happening during a databound
operation.
