Public Delegate Sub MenuEventHandler(sender As Object, e As MenuEventArgs)

Parameters

sender: Object

The source of the event.

e: MenuEventArgs

A MenuEventArgs that contains the event data.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the MenuEventHandler delegate to programmatically register an event handler for the MenuItemClick event of a Menu control. For this example to work correctly, you must copy the sample site map data below to a file named Web.sitemap.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<script runat="server">
    
  void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
    
    // Create a new Menu control.
    Menu newMenu = new Menu();
          
    // Set the properties of the Menu control.
    newMenu.ID = "NavigationMenu";
    newMenu.Orientation = Orientation.Vertical;
    newMenu.Target = "_blank";

    // Specify the data source for the menu.
    newMenu.DataSourceID = "MenuSource";

    // Programmatically register the event-handling method
    // for the MenuItemClick event of a Menu control. 
    newMenu.MenuItemClick += new MenuEventHandler(this.NavigationMenu_MenuItemClick);

    // Add the Menu control to the Controls collection
    // of the PlaceHolder control.
    MenuPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(newMenu);
    
  }

  void NavigationMenu_MenuItemClick(Object sender, MenuEventArgs e)
  {

    // Display the text of the menu item selected by the user.
    Message.Text = "You selected " + e.Item.Text + ".";

  }

Remarks

The MenuEventHandler class is used to represent the method that handles the events in the following table.

Event	Description
MenuItemClick	Occurs when a menu item is clicked. This event is commonly used to synchronize a Menu control with another control on the page.
MenuItemDataBound	Occurs when a menu item is bound to data. This event is commonly used to modify a menu item before it is rendered in a Menu control.

When you create a MenuEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, unless you remove the delegate. For more information about event-handler delegates, see Handling and Raising Events.

Extension Methods
