Controlsource that applies a databinding expression against the NavigateUrl.
This property is especially useful for binding page level post back events that cause a postback to a page event. The following example is used inside of a Repeater to delete an item and the PK is passed as an event 'parameter':
<ww:wwWebHyperLink runat="server" ID="btnDelete"
Click="btnDelete_Click"
Text="Delete"
CssClass="hoverbutton"
UrlControlSource="this.Page.GetPostbackEventReference('Page','btnDelete_Click',TRANS(pk),.T.)"
/>
To handle this event the event is fired and it can pick up the __EventParameter POST variable for state:
FUNCTION btnDelete_Click()
lcId = Request.Form("__EventParameter")
IF !this.oEntry.Delete( VAL(lcId) )
this.ErrorDisplay.ShowError("Couldn't delete entry:<br>" + this.oEntry.cErrormsg
RETURN
ENDIF
this.ErrorDisplay.ShowMessage( "Entry deleted." )
ENDFUNC
* btnDelete_Click
Note that you need to call DataBind() on this control (or its host data control like a Repeater/DataGrid) in order for this expression to be applied.
