Another Datalist question!

[oddball]

I want to display a size restricted window with no menu bar from a Hyperlink control in a Datalist. The URL needs to also pass the CompanyID.

The only way i know to open a mini window is using Javascript, so I am trying to combine the call to the Javascript function with the Databinder of the CompanyID. The end URL should look like this:

admin/Homepage.aspx?companyid=1

Here's the code:
===========================================================

<aspataList id=&quot;myDataList&quot; CellPadding=&quot;4&quot; Width=&quot;98%&quot; EnableViewState=&quot;false&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot;>
<ItemTemplate>
<span class=&quot;ItemTitle&quot;>
<asp:HyperLink NavigateUrl=&quot;javascriptpenWindowScroll('admin/Homepage.aspx?companyid=')&quot; Text=<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,&quot;CompanyName&quot %> runat=&quot;server&quot; />
</span>
<br>
<span class=&quot;Normal&quot;>
Joined <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,&quot;RegDate&quot %>  
</span>
<br>
</ItemTemplate>
</aspataList>

===========================================================

Here's what i want to crowbar into it:
===========================================================


<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,&quot;CompanyID&quot %>


===========================================================

Setting the NavigateURL to the Javascript on its own works, as does the DataBinder on its own, but i can't combine them without a syntax error. Is it possible or have i got the wrong approach?

cheers in advance,

try this approach:

<span class=&quot;ItemTitle&quot;>
<a href=&quot;javascriptpenWindowScroll('admin/Hompage.aspx?companyid='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem(&quot;companyID&quot) %>');&quot;>
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,&quot;CompanyName&quot %>
</a>
</span>

or better yet, if it were me, I'd put all but the companyID into the javascript function, and just pass in the id as an argument to the function. That's w/o knowing what else you use it for, though, so that might not be feasable.

anyway... hth
