In Asp.net controls writing a button click event is easy by setting an attribute onclick event. But here in ext.net controls writing a button click event is not as that easy even though it is having an attribute/property same as asp.net Controls. Ext.net has many ways to handle the button onclick event one way of doing it is by Direct Event. So in this article i want to demonstrate how to use of Direct click event in ext.net Controls. Let us see the below code snippet
less than symbol ext:Button runat="server" Text="Run" Width="75" greater than symbol
less than symbol DirectEvents greater than symbol
less than symbol Click OnEvent="DoSomething" greater than symbol
lessthansymbol /Click greaterthan symbol
lessthansymbol / DirectEvents greaterthan symbol
lessthan/ ext:Button greaterthan symbol
Note : replace lessthansymbol(<) and greaterthansymbol(>) when you try this code in your application
on the above ext.net code you see the attribute of runat, text and width they are same as asp.net controls but you see the below tag DirectEvents is what the discrepancy with asp.net Controls actually this is the attribute i want to set my function for Click Event i.e.Click OnEvent ="DoSomething". DoSomething is the method that i will write the code in the Server side.
Now in the Server Side you see the below code
[DirectMethod]
public void DoSomething()
{
X.Msg.Notify("My Name is: ", Bhushan).Show();
}
Especially you are handling a direct event on the server side you need to specify on top of the Method that it is a Direct Method. ext.net Controls than only recognizes the event is a Direct Otherwise your event will not be fired on this Method. In that direct event i had called an message notify event which is 'MY NAME IS BHUSHAN' it will popup below of your form /screen
