Accessing OnClick event for dynamically created controls.

[Jim Mitchell]

I have some code behind that generates 10 imagebutton controls.... I can
not seem to figure out how to trap the onclick event for each image and
determine which image was clicked.

Can someone help?

Thanks in advance.
for i = 1 to 10

img = New System.Web.UI.WebControls.ImageButton

img.ImageUrl = "images/buy.gif"

you need to be hooking up your onclick event to its handler. this isn't
generated for you automatically.
this.onclick += onclick handler goes here

Thanks for the quick response, but I do not know what you mean by....
this.onclick += onclick handler goes here

I created a test page as shown..... Where would I add this.onclick +=
onclick

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

If Not IsPostBack Then

For i = 1 To 5

img = New System.Web.UI.WebControls.ImageButton

img.ImageUrl = "images/meeting.gif"

img.ID = "imgEdit"

Next

End If

End Sub

Thanks for you help pointing me in the right direction. I did finally get
things working. I needed the VB commands, I needed to put the code in the
Init section of the code behind and I needed to stop doing a few stupid
things in my code.

Anyway, I have posted the page below for anyone that might be interested.
