Is there a way to check all linkbuttons that have a specified CommandArgument value and hide/show them in vb.net?
ex:
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton3" runat="server" class="thumbnail" style="text-align:center;" OnClick="display" CommandArgument="App1"/>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton4" runat="server" class="thumbnail" style="text-align:center;" OnClick="display" CommandArgument="App2"/>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton5" runat="server" class="thumbnail" style="text-align:center;" OnClick="display" CommandArgument="App1"/>
In vb.net I want to do the following [below is just text of what I want]
for each [Link buttons where CommandArguement = "App1" ]
Linkbutton[].Visible = false
next
Update:
I tried building something like this but c.CommandArgument doesn't work. I've done a cast on a linkbutton and got the CommandArgument from it but that was after clicking on the linkbutton and returning it which isn't the same scenario as what I am trying to accomplish.
Attempt:
Dim controlId As String = ""
Dim cControl As Control
For Each c As Control In cControl.Controls
If TypeOf c Is LinkButton Then
'Or whatever that is you checking for
If c.commandArgument = "App1" Then
End If
End If
Next
Example of code that works if I click on it
Dim btn As LinkButton = DirectCast(sender, LinkButton)
Dim yourValue As String = btn.CommandArgument
Missed the btn declaration
Dim c2 As Control
For Each c2 In pnl1.Controls
If TypeOf c2 Is LinkButton Then
Dim btn As LinkButton = c2
Dim val As String = btn.CommandArgument
If val.Contains("App1") Then
End If
End If
Next
