ImageButton 1

[shams123]

Hi guys,

I have a page with more than 20 clickable images. I am wondering if there's any grouping mechanism for imagebuttons so that a click on any one can call the same procedure and I could retrieve the image that was clicked?

Creating onclick for each image button doesn't sound promising. As always, all help appreciated.

Thanks!

put all of them in a template column inside datagrid. your datagrid will be a single column datagrid

then you can use the following inside the ItemCommand

Select Case e.CommandName

Case image1clicked
'do something
Case image2clicked
'do something else
...
...
Case else
'do nothing
End Select

Hi mate,

The images are going to be all over the page, no logical placement will be done. Can I still use the template column in datagrid?

That's an overly complicated method and not very practical. Instead, add a Handles event for each image button e.g.

Protected Sub ImageClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.ImageClickEventArgs) Handles ImageButton1.Click, ImageButton2.Click etc...

    End Sub

Create your own sub that handles the click event of each image button you want"

    Sub ImageButtonClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.ImageClickEventArgs) _
    [b]Handles ImageButton1.Click, ImageButton2.Click, ImageButton3.Click, ImageButton4.Click, ImageButton5.Click[/b]

        Dim imgButton As New ImageButton
        imgButton = sender


        Select Case imgButton.ID
            Case "ImageButton1"
                'Do Stuff
            Case "ImageButton2"
                'Do stuff
                .... etc
            Case Else
        End Select

    End Sub

Thanks to ca8msm as well. I just wanted to capture the image that was clicked and then it was a common operation to do.

Cheers guys!

ca8msm, what you suggested was exactly something that the OP was trying to avoid...

No it wasn't. It was exactly the same method that Jim suggested and if you re-read my code you will see there are two image button clicks that are handled by the same function.
