Public Event MenuItemClick As MenuEventHandler
Dim instance As Menu
Dim handler As MenuEventHandler
AddHandler instance.MenuItemClick, handler
public event MenuEventHandler MenuItemClick
public:
event MenuEventHandler^ MenuItemClick {

/** @event */
public void remove_MenuItemClick (MenuEventHandler value)
In JScript, you can handle the events defined by a class, but you cannot define your own.
The MenuItemClick event is raised when a menu item is clicked in a Menu control. This allows you to provide an event handler that performs a custom routine, such as synchronizing with another control on the page, whenever this event occurs.
A MenuEventArgs object is passed to the event handler, which allows you to access the properties of the menu item that raised the event.
For more information about handling events, see Consuming Events.
The following code example demonstrates how to create an event handler for the MenuItemClick event that displays the text of the menu item selected by the user.
