Hi I have an Asp repeater on my form filled from a website. Basically each member is a href. What I want to do is depending which is selected I wish to set a session variable say x, to be some value, dependant on the selection. Any ideas? Thank you in advance

Try using a LinkButton rather than an anchor tag as it has a Click event where you can set your variable.

Thanks, how can i pass my variable through to this event?
 
You could add it to the CommandArgument property of the Button.

Hi, thanks for your response. I tried that, but the following is happening. I have onClick =eventHandler and in this method, I set the session["variable"] = whatever;

This session is not available on the next page though. I tried to specify the postbackurl parameter and it didnt even call the onclick method. I then left this out and tried a response redirect in the onclick method. It redirected but the session was not set. Any ideas?

Post your Click event of the LinkButton
