I need to get the value of the CommandArgument attribute of a LinkButton, in an asp:Repeater.

I have an asp:Repeater with 2 LinkButtons whose CommandArgument I set to a value:

<ItemTemplate>

    <tr class=odd>                                        

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, batch_id)%></td>

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, productId)%></td>

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, serial_number)%></td>

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, activation_card_number)%></td>

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, transaction_amount,{0:C})%></td>                                        

        <td><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, response_dt, {0:M/d/yyyy HH:mm:ss})%></td>                                        

        <td style=text-align:center;><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, resp_process_msg)%></td>

        <td style=text-align:center;><%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, resp_response_code)%></td>

        <td style=text-align:center;><asp:LinkButton ID=lnkBtnRestageAdd CommandName=Add CommandArgument='<%#Eval(activation_card_number)%>' runat=server Text=stage class=add OnClientClick=return false; /></td>                                                                                

        <td style=text-align:center;><asp:LinkButton ID=lnkBtnRestageMinus CommandName=Subtract CommandArgument='<%#Eval(activation_card_number)%>' runat=server Text=stage class=minus OnClientClick=return false; /></td>

      </tr>

</ItemTemplate>

I have suppressed the PostBack with OnClientClick=return false; so that I can pop a jQuery dialog modal when the link buttons get clicked:

if (btnAdd != null) {

    $(.add).click(function() {

        $(#<%=divDialogAdd.ClientID %>).removeAttr(style);

        $(#<%=divDialogAdd.ClientID %>).dialog(open);

    });

}

In the modal I have 2 other asp:LinkButtons, and when the 'Yes' button is clicked I do the postback like so:

yesBtn.click(function() {

    setTimeout('__doPostBack('btnAdd','')', 0); //need to add a param

});

What I need to do, is somehow grab the CommandArgument value from the LinkButton in the Repeater, so that I can pass that as a parametere or assign it to a hidden field. I have tried jQuery's attr(), but that only works when the attribute was set using that function as well. How can I get this value, or what other way can I go about this?

I don't think you can get that property in javascript. Because the command argument is passed as the the argument in the doPostBack function. But i think you can change your code like this to decrease the complexity.

<asp:LinkButton ID=lnkBtnRestageAdd 

                CommandName=Add 

                CommandArgument='<%#Eval(activation_card_number)%>' 

                runat=server 

                Text=stage 

                class=add 

                OnClientClick='<%#Eval(activation_card_number,javascript:return YourFunction({0});)%>' />

do the stuff that you want to do in the function YourFunction return true if Yes is pressed and return false
