Command Class
Creates a user interface element that enables users to invoke ASP.NET event handlers and it provides a means to post user input from UI elements back to the server.
public class System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Command :
System.Web.UI.MobileControls.TextControl,
System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler
Remarks
The Command control displays as an interactive UI element on the requesting device. The label of the UI element comes from the Text property, which is inherited from the TextControl base class.
**Caution **Avoid using special characters in ASP.NET mobile Web page URLs. The HREF tags generated for posting Command events back to the server are not strictly validated. For example, a URL that includes spaces results in the generation of WML that cannot be handled by some WML browsers.
Example
The following code sample demonstrates how to attach command events. Clicking either of the Command buttons raises the OnItemCommand event. The user-defined function uses the CommandEventArgs
argument to see which Command button was clicked.
<%@ Page Inherits="System.Web.UI.MobileControls.MobilePage"
Language="VB" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="mobile"
Namespace="System.Web.UI.MobileControls"
Assembly="System.Web.Mobile" %>
<script Language="VB" runat=server>
Sub Command_Click(sender As Object, e As CommandEventArgs)
If e.CommandName.ToString() = "Command1" Then
Label1.Text = "You clicked Button1."
Else If e.CommandName.ToString() = "Command2" Then
Label1.Text = "You clicked Button2."
End If
End Sub
</script>
<mobile:Form id="myForm" runat=server>
<mobile:Label id="Label1" runat=server>Click a button
</mobile:label>
<mobile:Label id="Label2" runat=server></mobile:label>
<mobile:Command id="Command1" OnItemCommand="Command_Click"
CommandName="Command1" runat="server" Text="Button1" />
<mobile:Command id="Command2" OnItemCommand="Command_Click"
CommandName="Command2" runat="server" Text="Button2" />
</mobile:Form>
