Answer 1

You can set the anchor as server side control and change it's attribute in code. The markup may look like:

<a id="popupmodal" runat="server" href='<%# GetAFTERburnDownloadHRef() %>' >
    <asp:Image ID="Image2" runat="server"   
        ImageUrl="images/Download.jpg"/>
</a>

And in code behind:

protected void ListView2_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)
{

    Image Image2 = (Image)e.Item.FindControl("Image2");
    //come code here for get <a></a> tag to made this change I want 
    string PlanType = "free";
    if (PlanType == Globals.PlaneType.PlanOne)            
    {
        HtmlAnchor popupmodal = (HtmlAnchor)e.Item.FindControl("popupmodal");
        //here i want to add name="popupmodal" in <a></a> like this  
        //<a name="popupmodal"></a>
        popupmodal.Attributes.Add("name", "popupmodal");               
        Image2.ImageUrl = "~/images/LockDownload.JPG";
    }
    else
    {
        Image2.ImageUrl = "~/images/Download.JPG";
    }
}
