Hello I have following aspx code and when the button inside ItemTemplate
is cliked i need to pass the Item.BookID into code behind and I am unsure how to do it as there can be multiple items in the view. Thank you help would be much appreciated.
<asp:ListView runat="server" ID="UserDetailBooks" DefaultMode="ReadOnly" ItemType="WebApplication1.Models.Borrowed" SelectMethod="GetBorrow" DeleteMethod="ReturnBook">
<EmptyDataTemplate>
<h3>No borrowed books!</h3>
</EmptyDataTemplate>
<LayoutTemplate>
<div style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 50%;">
<h4>Books in possesion:</h4>
<table style="border-spacing: 2px;">
<tr id="groupPlaceholder" runat="server">
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</LayoutTemplate>
<GroupTemplate>
<tr>
<td id="itemPlaceholder" runat="server"></td>
</tr>
</GroupTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<td><asp:Button runat="server" Text="Return" OnClick="ReturnBook" />
<a href="BookDetail.aspx?BookID=<%#:Item.BookID %>"><%#:Item.BookTitle %></a>
</td>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:ListView>
You could pass the id in the button attributes?
<asp:Button runat="server" Text="Return" BookID="<%#:Item.BookID %>" OnClick="ReturnBook" />
<a href="BookDetail.aspx?BookID=<%#:Item.BookID %>"><%#:Item.BookTitle %></a>
void ReturnBook(object sender, EventArgs e) {
Button b = sender;
string BookId = b.Attributes["BookID"];
}
