The following code sample uses the single-file code model and may not work correctly if copied directly into a code-behind file. This code sample must be copied into an empty text file that has an .aspx extension. For more information on the Web Forms code model, see ASP.NET Web Forms Page Code Model.

Remarks

The Command event is raised when the ImageButton control is clicked. The OnCommand event handler is used to make the ImageButton control behave like a Command button. A command name can be associated with the control by using the CommandName property. This allows multiple ImageButton controls to be placed on the Web page. The value in this property can then be programmatically identified in the OnCommand event handler to determine the appropriate action to perform when each ImageButton control is clicked. The CommandArgument property can also be used to pass additional information about the command, such as specifying ascending order.

Note

The Command event is raised through the control hierarchy in the form of the BubbleEvent.

Raising an event invokes the event handler through a delegate. For more information, see How to: Consume Events in a Web Forms Application.

The OnCommand method also allows derived classes to handle the event without attaching a delegate. This is the preferred technique for handling the event in a derived class.

Notes to Inheritors

When overriding OnCommand(CommandEventArgs) in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's OnCommand(CommandEventArgs) method so that registered delegates receive the event.
