Question

Is it possible to have a server-side click handler for a hyperlink?

Answer 1

Consider converting your hyperlink, perhaps it’s an <a> tag, to a ASP.NET server side control: LinkButton.

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" id="foo"   OnClick="LinkButton_Click" 
     Text="Do Some Stuff Server Side, and Expect a Redirect Somewhere" />

It’s not clear from the question what you’d like to do server side. From here, you can call custom code and basically do anything once it’s posted back.
