I have 2 link buttons with OnClientClick() & OnCommand() events

OnClientClick() i am opening a  samll window

& OnCommand() event I want to know on  which Linkbutton user has click

protected void  LinkButton_Command(object sender, CommandEventArgs e)

        {

             if (e.CommandName == "Friend")

                {

                    Session["type"] = "f";

                }

                if (e.CommandName == "Privatemessage")

                {

                    Session["type"] = "p";

                }

Hello,

There is nothing wrong with your code. I copied your code and ran it. The Command  event is getting fired.

One of my collegue also faced the same issue.  He just copied his code into the new page and it started working.

I would suggest you to do the same. Just copy and paste it in a new web form and then try to run it.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Thanks & Regards,

It will not fire because you yourself are stopping it. You have written "return false;" :

OnClientClick="openRadWin(); return false;"

So why would the server side code will fire ? since you are telling the page to stop the default action on click of link button, which is a postpack.

yes raghav you r right,

but when i say return true then rad window immegiately get closed

so wht to do to keep it open unless user close it

You must be having some button on your RAD modal. Write your logic on click of that button instead of command of link button.

Remove  return false; from OnclientClick event.
