label and onclick

**hpl** · Feb 7th, 2003, 01:05 PM

I wish to fire an onclick event when I click a label. But it fails. It's fine if I use a button. I am rewriting my javascript menus to .net code. Or does any have a better solution? I wish to activate a .net sub when I click a JS-menu.

Code:

<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<script runat="server">

    Sub panelhp(sender As Object, E As EventArgs)
        lblHp.text = "Test"
    
    end sub

</script>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
    <form runat="server">
        <asp:label id="Label1" onclick="panelhp" runat="server" text="Test"></asp:label>
        <asp:label id="lblHp" runat="server" text="Help"></asp:label>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

I am not that good with ASP.Net yet, but I think in VB.Net code you need to put a handles statement at the end of the sub:

VB Code:

Sub panelhp(sender As Object, E As EventArgs) Handles lblHp.Click 'or something like that....
        lblHp.text = "Test"
    
    end sub

I don't think ASP labels have click events associated with them. You'll have to use a button, hyperlink, or something similar available for web forms...

hpl, you can not assign any action on a label control...

OK, so I have to use a button and the hide the borderwidths? I have also tried to use this
<asp:hyperlink ..../>. Can anyone give an example with onclick used with a hyperlink? I can't make it work, perhaps I use some events, which are not allowed.
