Apply css to asp:HyperLinkColumn

[Maziar Aflatoun]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how I can apply the css 'linksmall' to my hyperlink in my
datagrid?

I have the following and it doesn't work
<asp:HyperLinkColumn Text="Edit" DataNavigateUrlField="PID"
ItemStyle-CssClass="linksmall"
DataNavigateUrlFormatString="ManageItem.aspx?PID={0}">

I need to add it to my href='' tag.

Thank you
Maziar A.

In ItemDataBound event set
e.Item.Cells[xx].Attributes["class"]="linksmall";
where xx is the index of the column with the hyperlink

That doesn't work because it assigns the css to the cell and not the href.
What I need is

<td class="linksmall"><a href="ManageItem.aspx?PID=24"
class="linksmall">Edit</a></td>

instead of
<td class="linksmall"><a href="ManageItem.aspx?PID=24">Edit</a></td>

Any idea?

Thank you

Maziar,

First of all, if you've assigned a class to <td>, it will format the cell
content in the way your want. I don't think there is any reason for setting
the same class for the <a>.

Secondly, I had another look at your problem. The solution is
<asp:HyperLinkColumn Text="Edit" DataNavigateUrlField="PID"
DataNavigateUrlFormatString="ManageItem.aspx?PID={0}">
<ItemStyle CssClass="linksmall"></ItemStyle>
</asp:HyperLinkColumn>
