passing value using eventargs

[memememe]

is there a way to pass values using the eventargs of a certain event, lets
say onclick?? or how does everyone else pass values? lets say each button
has 5 things (string, ints, etc) it needs to know, how can you pass that to
the event handler?

One option is to utilize the commandarguments argument.
it's a read write property of the control retrievable thru event args ex.
e.commandname

I have used that but it wont solve my problem right now (actually not my
problem, someone elses) because they are using the onlick event of something
other than a button, and it does not have the command event.

Some .Net Event classes contain data in them. It sounds like you might need
to create a custom Event Class and Event Handler delegate, in order to pass
the data you specifically need. Is that correct?

that would probably actually work (had considered similar scenarios), i just
hope i can convince the person needing that thats the way to go.
What about creating a class that extends lets say htmlanchor and on the
onclick event it passes something on the event args, or it has some
properties that can be read/write?

As to whether you can successfully override an event handler for an existing
class, you would have to check that class to find out. It's not hard to
create a custom Server Control either.
