Loading Hyperlink from XAML!

[Mathiaslylo]

Hi there.

I'm using .NET Framework 4.0's System.XAML namespace to load an object from XAML code parsed as a string.

However, if I wish to load the code here:

<TextBlock><Hyperlink NavigateUri="http://test.com">Blah</Hyperlink></TextBlock>

Then how would I make the Hyperlink work? So far if I click it, nothing happens.

I still need help with this.

Add a click event with something like this:

private void MyHyperlink_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Process.Start(((Hyperlink)sender).NavigateUri.ToString());
}

Note: You will need to add a reference to System.Diagnostics.

Doesn't work. You see, I am loading the link dynamically through the System.XAML namespace.

It shouldn't matter should it? You can dynamically add event handers after all.

Oh, and the procedure handling it:

Public Sub LinkClicked(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
MsgBox("Test")
End Sub
