Dynamically give Id to button, Commandargument send value

Here is my part of Shop.aspx code:
<% foreach(var item in items){ %>
...
<asp:Button id="btnBuy" runat="server" class="btn" Text="Buy" OnClick ="btnBuy_Click" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("item.id") %>' />
<% } %>
I've got a loop where I create few buttons to my shopping items, and I need them to have id of my item
protected void btnBuy_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int itemId = Convert.ToInt32(btnBuy.CommandArgument);
}
On click i need to have id of the item/button clicked, to save them later in my database.
Problem -
When i click on button btnbuy.CommandArgument is "".

It's wrong: you wrote c#in asp style. You have to use a Repeater and then you can manage ItemCommand for every button click.
Aspx
<asp:Repeater ID="myRepeater" runat="server" OnItemCommand="myRepeater_ItemCommand">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label id="myLbl" runat="server" Text='<%# ((Item)(Container.DataItem)).ProductName %>'/>
<asp:Button id="btnBuy" runat="server" CssClass="btn" Text="Buy" CommandName="Click" CommandArgument='<%# ((Item)(Container.DataItem)).ProductId %>' />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
c# (eg. OnLoad)
List<Item> myCollection = ...; // get list of items
myRepeater.DataSource = myCollection;
myRepeater.DataBind();
...
protected void myRepeater_ItemCommand(Object sender, RepeaterCommandEventArgs e)
{
if(e.CommandName == "Click")
{
int idRecord = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);
// do something using idRecord or
// get sender properties: ((Button)e.CommandSource).Text
}
}

C#/ASP.Net - ImageButton OnClick CodeBehind function

I've got default.aspx/default.aspx.cs and other.cs where i "store" a bunch of functions.
In my default.aspx i've :
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" CssClass="btn_img" ImageUrl="./images/1.png" runat="server" OnClick='<%# "setFunction(" +Eval("aGUID") +")" %>' />
in my default.aspx.cs
protected void setFunction(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)
{
string istr = e.ToString();
var iguid = new Guid(istr);
// this are classes/functions stored in other.cs
ManageFun mfun = new ManageFun();
mfun.setMM(iguid);
}
I though i was doing all right, but can't figure out what i'm doing wrong!
In matter of fact it does nothing!
Apreciate any help!
Thanks!

You can try this
<h3>ImageButton Sample</h3>
Click anywhere on the image.<br /><br />
<asp:ImageButton id="imagebutton1" runat="server"
AlternateText="ImageButton 1"
ImageAlign="left"
ImageUrl="images/pict.jpg"
OnClick="ImageButton_Click"/>
<br /><br />
<asp:label id="Label1" runat="server"/>
and C# code
public void ImageButton_Click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = "You clicked the ImageButton control at the coordinates: (" +
e.X.ToString() + ", " + e.Y.ToString() + ")";
}
No need to write these <%#
Here is the reference Click

Basically asp:ImageButton with Onclick which will not call the server side code with Eval.
Edit:
You can directly call like this :
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" CssClass="btn_img" ImageUrl="./images/1.png" runat="server" OnClick="setFunction" />
if you want to pass the parameter to that function you can assign the param to the CommandArguement as below
CommandArguement='<%# Eval("aGUID") %>'
in your SetFunction you can retrieve like this
string val = e.CommandArguement.ToString()

How to change the layout of QueryableFilterRepeater?

I am using an ASP.NET Dynamic Data Entities web application which contains a QueryableFilterRepeater server control inside the content placeholder on page List.aspx, when I execute the website, the filter control shows all the filters (Label Name along with the corresponding Drop Down) vertically.
Is there any way we can change the layout and display the filters horizontally?
Please find the .aspx code below
<asp:QueryableFilterRepeater runat="server" ID="FilterRepeater">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("DisplayName") %>' OnPreRender="Label_PreRender" />
<asp:DynamicFilter runat="server" ID="DynamicFilter" OnFilterChanged="DynamicFilter_FilterChanged" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:QueryableFilterRepeater>
The corresponding .cs file code:-
protected void Label_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label label = (Label)sender;
DynamicFilter dynamicFilter = (DynamicFilter)label.FindControl("DynamicFilter");
QueryableFilterUserControl fuc = dynamicFilter.FilterTemplate as QueryableFilterUserControl;
if (fuc != null && fuc.FilterControl != null)
{
label.AssociatedControlID = fuc.FilterControl.GetUniqueIDRelativeTo(label);
}
}
protected void DynamicFilter_FilterChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GridView1.PageIndex = 0;
}
Need suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

I usually wrap the control in a span element and then use CSS to style it the way that i want:
<asp:QueryableFilterRepeater runat="server" ID="FilterRepeater">
<ItemTemplate>
<span class="filter">
<asp:Label runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("DisplayName") %>' OnPreRender="Label_PreRender" />
<asp:DynamicFilter runat="server" ID="DynamicFilter" OnFilterChanged="DynamicFilter_FilterChanged"/>
</span>
</ItemTemplate>

Creating a query string when clicking on image (asp.net/c#)

My application is an image gallery and with a Repeater control i'm listing the thumbnails (that's in a separate folder, apart from the full scale images). When clicking on a thumbnail a full scale image should be shown in the Image control "fullSizeImage" and a query string should be created which (with a GET of the page) shows that specific image in full scale.
The code for the query string is done, but the problem is that I don't have a clue where to put it (the creation of the query), because the HyperLink control doesn't support event clicks. Is there a way to use for example Repeater ItemCommand, or how could I accomplish what I want here?
Thanks!
from default.aspx:
<asp:Image ID="fullSizeImage" runat="server" />
<asp:Repeater ID="ImageRepeater" runat="server" DataSourceID="" >
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:HyperLink ID="ImageHyperLink" NavigateUrl='<%# Eval("Name", "~/Images/{0}") %>' runat="server" CssClass="thumbnails" >
<asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# Eval("Name", "~/Images/Thumbnails/{0}") %>' CssClass="thumbnail" />
</asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
from code behind:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
var directory = new DirectoryInfo(Gallery.PhysicalApplicationPath + "/Images");
var theFiles = directory.GetFiles();
ImageRepeater.DataSource = theFiles;
ImageRepeater.DataBind();
var dataName = Request.QueryString["name"];
fullSizeImage.ImageUrl = dataName;
}
the creation of the query string (that I don't know where to put):
string str = ImageUrl; <- the url of the clicked image
Response.Redirect("default.aspx?name=" + Server.UrlEncode(str);

This works with me
<asp:HyperLink ID="ImageHyperLink" NavigateUrl='<%# "~/default.aspx?name=" + Server.UrlEncode(Eval("Name","~/Images/{0}")) %>' runat="server" CssClass="thumbnails" >
<asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# Eval("Name", "~/Images/Thumbnails/{0}") %>' CssClass="thumbnail" />
</asp:HyperLink>

In the code behind you can set up a method tied to the Repeater's ItemDataBound event. In that method you can retrieve the current file, find the HyperLink, and set the link's NavigateUrl to be the string you are generating. Something like the following:
ImageRepeater.ItemDataBound += new RepeaterItemEventHandler(ImageRepeater_ItemDataBound);
private void ImageRepeater_ItemDataBound(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
[File] f = (File)e.Item.DataItem;
HyperLink ImageHyperLink = (HyperLink)e.Item.FindControl("ImageHyperLink");
string str = f.ImageUrl;
ImageHyperLink.NavigateUrl = "default.aspx?name=" + Server.UrlEncode(str);
}

Want to bind querystring in postbackurl of imagebutton in gridview?

when i try to databind the '<%#Eval("EntryID") %>' to the ImageButton's postbackurl as
<asp:ImageButton ID="ibtnEdit" runat="server" CommandName="Edit" CommandArgument='<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"SystemEmailID")%>'
ImageUrl="~/Images/edit-list.gif" PostBackUrl="~/Edit_SyatemEmails.aspx?blogentry=edit&id=<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"SystemEmailID")%>"/>
it's failed, then i updated the code to
<asp:ImageButton ID="ibtnBlogEntryEdit" PostBackUrl='"~/admin/BlogEntry.aspx?blogentry=edit&entryid=" & <%# Eval("EntryID") %>' SkinID="edit" runat="server" />
well,the above code has pass the debugging,but failed to databind to the postbackurl,the result as
http://localhost/dovoshow/"~/admin/BlogEntry.aspx?blogentry=edit&entryid="%20&%20<%#%20Eval("EntryID")%20%>
so,anyonw know how to solve it ,help me thanks

It should be like...
PostBackUrl='<%# Eval("SystemEmailID", "Edit_SyatemEmails.aspx?id={0}"
+ "&blogentry=" + Request.QueryString["edit"]) %>'

I would suggest you to do it in the code behind.
On GridView RowCreated event:
protected void GridView_OnRowCreated(Object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if(e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
(e.Row.FindControl("ibtnEdit") as ImageButton). PostBackUrl = "~/Edit_SyatemEmails.aspx?blogentry=edit&id=" + DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "SystemEmailID"))
}
}
