The following code example modifies the previous example to programmatically specify and code an event handler for the ServerClick event.

      {
       
         // Create an EventHandler delegate for the method you want to handle the event
         // and then add it to the list of methods called when the event is raised.
         AnchorButton.ServerClick += new System.EventHandler(this.HtmlAnchor_Click);

      }

      void HtmlAnchor_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
         
         Message.InnerHtml = "Thank you for clicking the HtmlAnchor control.";

      }

Remarks

The ServerClick event is raised when the HtmlAnchor control is clicked. This server event causes a round trip to occur from the client to the server and back.
