Identify which button clicked in Gridview

Question

Hi All I have a Gridview in my webpage and there are two button fields included in gridview for selection. One is for Adding and other one is for Editing. How can i track which button is clicked inside GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged Event? Simply what i want is to get the cell id or the button id of the button clicked. Can anybody give me a hand to sort this out ? ****this is my gridview columns***** SelectImageUrl=~/images/addNew.png SelectText=select > SelectImageUrl=~/images/edit.png SelectText=edit > *******this is my Event*********** protected void GridView1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender EventArgs e) { //code goes here } Thanks Max

Hi Charith you need to add the command name to the control. So that when it is clicked you can identify in the item command. CommandName=AddToCart CommandArgument=  Text=Add to Cart /> Identify in the row command event of the grid control. protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender GridViewCommandEventArgs e) { if (e.CommandName == AddToCart) { // Retrieve the row index stored in the // CommandArgument property. int index = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument); // Retrieve the row that contains the button // from the Rows collection. GridViewRow row = GridView1.Rows[index]; // Add code here to add the item to the shopping cart. } }
