Question

This HyperLink syntax is not working to pass parameters to a small PopUp window:

<asp:HyperLink ID='HyperLink2' runat='server' Text='Manage Related Items'     NavigateUrl='<%# 'editRelatedItems.aspx?' + 'ProductSID=' + Eval('ProductSID') + '&CollectionTypeID=' + Eval('CollectionTypeID')+ '&ProductTypeID=' + Eval('ProductTypeID') %>'     onclick='window.open('editRelatedItems.aspx?','name','height=550, width=790,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no, menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no'); return false;)     target='_blank' /> 

Looks like the <asp:HyperLink> tag does not take the 'onclick'. Any ideas on how to get a pop up to fire that can get these parameters? I’m using C#, so perhaps there is a way to build the NavigateURL string in the code behind?

Thanks for any insight you may have.

<asp:HyperLink       ID='HyperLink2'       runat='server'       Text='Manage Related Items'      NavigateUrl='#'      onClick='<%# 'window.open('editRelatedItems.aspx' +                    '?ProductSID=' + Eval('ProductSID') +                    '&CollectionTypeID=' + Eval('CollectionTypeID')+                    '&ProductTypeID=' + Eval('ProductTypeID') +                    ','name','height=550, width=790,toolbar=no,                   directories=no,status=no,                   menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no');                    return false;%>'        Target='_blank' /> 

That should work, but I would really create a javascript method to call which would open the window.

<script type='text/javascript'>    function openRelatedItems(productSID, collectionTypeId, productTypeId) {          window.open('editRelatedItems.aspx' +                    '?ProductSID=' + productSID +                    '&CollectionTypeID=' + collectionTypeID +                    '&ProductTypeID=' + productTypeID +                    ','name','height=550, width=790,toolbar=no,                   directories=no,status=no,                   menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no');      } </script>
