ServerClick question

[Naoise]

I have a form with a button declared as

Protected WithEvents MyButton As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputButton

In my code behind page how do I capture the fact that it has been clicked in sub page_load()?

I know you can have a dedicated function that handles the logic behind when the button is clicked ie


public sub btn_click()handles MyButton.ServerClick
....
end sub

but I need to know if it has been clicked in sub page_load(), I have tried if(MyButton.ServerClick)then ... which does not work

You can use the EVENTTARGET to find a reference to the control that caused the postback.

I know this isn't exactly what you are looking for but it may get you pointed in the right direction.

Actually, I should expand on my comment. If you are using a button or image to postback the form, the button or image will be in the Request.Form collection. If you are not using one of those controls, the id will be in the __EVENTTARGET of the request.form collection.

Add Trace="True" to your page directive and you'll see what I mean.
