I am making a dynamic table that will add rows whenever the add row button is clicked. I am creating the button programmatically and adding it to the table header. Below that button, and on the same column there will be delete row buttons too.
I am having a problem though, when I click the button, the event is not being called. Am I creating the button correctly? If not, then how do I do it? If I am, then do you know what the problem is?
region Add_Table_Header
TableHeaderCell thcOne = new TableHeaderCell();
TableHeaderCell thcTwo = new TableHeaderCell();
TableHeaderCell thcThree = new TableHeaderCell();
TableHeaderCell thcrFour = new TableHeaderCell();
TableHeaderCell thcFive = new TableHeaderCell();
TableCell thcRowAction = new TableCell(); //THIS IS THE COLUMN WITH THE
//ADD BUTTON
thcOne.Text = "Who";
thcTwo.Text = "Date Started";
thcThree.Text = "Date Ended";
thcrFour.Text = "Causes?";
thcFive.Text = "Result";
//HERE IS WHERE I CREATE AND ADD THE BUTTON
Button addRowButton = new Button();
addRowButton.Text = "Add Row";
addRowButton.Click += new EventHandler(this.AddNewRow_Click);
thcRowAction.Controls.Add(addRowButton);
TableHeaderRow headerRow = new TableHeaderRow();
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcOne);
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcTwo);
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcThree);
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcrFour);
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcFive);
headerRow.Cells.Add(thcRowAction);
table.Rows.Add(headerRow);
#endregion
protected void AddNewRow_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (ViewState["RowsCount"] != null)
{
numOfRows = Convert.ToInt32(ViewState["RowsCount"]);
GenerateTable(numOfRows);
}
}
Once again, the button appears, but it does not enter the correct event method. Thanks for your help and time :)
By the way when I do it declaratively such as:
<asp:Button ID="BTNAdd" runat="server" Text="Add New Row" OnClick="AddNewRow_Click" />
the event will register and work completely fine.
NEW INFO: I have a delete button appearing too, I did not register any type of event with it, but when I click it, it does the exact same thing as the add row button, could this be because the master page or a different source is telling the buttons what to do first or by default?
THANKS :)
