Use asp:Table in aspx.vb with hyperlinks

[John Alexander]

Dim I As Integer
Dim needfooter As boolean
Dim Literal1 As New Literal()
Define_List1_Data()

Dim html As New StringBuilder() 'Building an HTML string.
html.Append("<table border = '1' cellspacing=\'0\' cellpadding=\'2\' border=\'1\'><tr>")      'Table start.
        For I = 1 to 8
            html.Append("<th>column " & i & "</th>")
        Next
      html.Append("</tr>")       'Building the Data rows.
        for I = 1 to 88
		needFooter = true
        if I mod 8 = 0 then html.Append("<tr>")
	html.Append("<TD align = 'center'>")
**Here is my problem **
I want the cells to be links to a Sub in this page but it won't accept what I typed.
	html.Append("<A HREF='javascript:DisplayConstellations(I)'>" & ConName(I) & "</A>")
	html.Append("</TD>")
        if I mod 8 = 8 Then
        	html.Append("</tr>")
        	needFooter = false
	End If
     Next
        html.Append("</table>")        'Table end.
PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(New Literal() With{.Text=html.ToString()})

Any suggestions to allow it to link to the Sub?

Your "DisplayConstel lations(I)" is not accepted because your integer is inside of quotes. Try using something like this:

Html.Append("<A HREF=javascript:DisplayConstellations(" & I & ")>" & ConName(I) & "</A>")

That didn't work. I use html.Append("<A HREF='#DisplayC onstellations(" & I & ")'>" & ConName(I) & "</A>") Notice that single quote marks are needed for javascript as html.Append use double quotes. I see at the bottom of my browser that it displays localhost/program name/page name/#sub to go to when I hover the mouse over the desired cell but it doesn't do anything. If I put in a page name then it would probably go to that page but the sub I want to use is in this page.

Html.Append("<a href='JavaScrip t:DisplayConste llations(" & I & ")';>" & ConName(I) & "</a></TD>") I finally ended up using javascript in aspx page to receive the click. I was trying to get away from javascript and learn asp.net with vb.net. This is only faking it with javascript and not using aspx.
