How to get intercept an event on a HyperLink control ?

[Gilles Lambert]

Hi,

I need the NavigateUrl property of the HyperLink control to point to a
file and whish to intercept the click on the link. But this control
don't expose such event and the LinkButon don't expose the NavigateUrl
property.

So is it possible to do this ?

Thanks and best regards
Gilles

Hi Gilles,

What I would do in this situation, which in fact I kind of do in my public website is the following:

1. Use a LinkButton so you can intercept the click in code.
2. Pass the value of NavigateUrl in the CommandArgument that you can nab in the event handler in code.
3. In your code, process what you need to do for the intercept, then do a Respone.Redirect(LinkButton1.CommandArgument)

I hope this helps!
