Question

I am trying to call my .cs method in client side to set the Checked attribute of asp:checkbox. My checkbox control is as follows:

<asp:CheckBox ID="chkStatus" runat="server" Checked='<%# ProcessEntityStatus(Eval("Deleted"))%>' Text="Active" Enabled="false" />

Code behind method:

public bool ProcessEntityStatus(bool value)
{
    if (!value)
    {
        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

It doesn’t work. Can any one help me please.

Modify your code like this and see if it helps.

<asp:CheckBox ID="chkStatus" runat="server" Checked='<%= ProcessEntityStatus(Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("Deleted")))%>' Text="Active" Enabled="false" />

public string ProcessEntityStatus(bool value)
    {

       if (!value)
       {
           return "true";
       }
       else
       {
           return "false";
       }
    }
