Question

I am trying to use list view for dynamic display of data from database. I want that on clicking that data a background coding should run by getting the ID of the selected data and then it should navigate to another page.

Answer 1

The answer which worked for me

<asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server" DataKeyNames="ID" 
        onselectedindexchanging="ListView1_SelectedIndexChanging">
<LayoutTemplate>
    <ul>
        <asp:PlaceHolder ID="itemPlaceholder" runat="server" />    
    </ul>                
</LayoutTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
    <li>
        <%#Eval("Subject") %>
         <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkSelect" Text="Read More" CommandName="Select"     runat="server" />
    </li>
</ItemTemplate>
<SelectedItemTemplate>
       <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkSelect" Text="Read More" CommandName="Select" runat="server"
           ForeColor="White" />
           <%#Eval("Subject") %>
           </SelectedItemTemplate>
    </asp:ListView>

The .CS file

protected void ListView1_SelectedIndexChanging(object sender, ListViewSelectEventArgs e)
    {
        ListView1.SelectedIndex = e.NewSelectedIndex;
        string pid = ListView1.SelectedDataKey.Value.ToString();
        Session["id"] = pid;
        Response.Redirect("About.aspx");
    }
