How to use DataBinder.Eval in HyperLink NavigationUrl - ASP.net

I wanted to append page Url with DataBinder.Eval value in ASP.NET hyperlink control on ASP.NET HTML source. I was trying it using many ways and also search for resources on web but I could not find any useful thing.

I thought this will help u guys to get an idea about appending two strings. Solution as follows.

<asp:HyperLink ID="customerHyperLink" runat="server"
Text= '<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %>' NavigateUrl='<%# "~/Pages/YourPage.aspx?id=" + DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "id") %>'></asp:HyperLink>

You can see how I have appended these two value in NavigateUrl property.

Hope some one will get the advantage of this post.

I kept getting "Input string was not in a correct format" when I used your exact code. So I changed the '+' in the navigateurl to a '&' and it works. I have used '+' before to concatenate but for some reason it would not take it here... I guess it's just another option. Thanks for the tip!

Exit a T-SQL Cursor When Condition is met

Have you ever wanted to exit from a cursor when a condition is met? I wanted to do it. So this is how I did it. DECLARE @Field1 AS INT DECLARE @Field2 AS INT DECLARE CursorName CURSOR READ_ONLY FOR SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM TableName OPEN CursorName FETCH NEXT FROM CursorName INTO @Field1, @Field2 WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN IF @Field1 = 1 BEGIN GOTO ENDCURSOR END FETCH NEXT FROM CursorName INTO @Field1, @Field2 END ENDCURSOR: CLOSE CursorName DEALLOCATE CursorName I have set my fonts to bold where you want to notice. So that's all I hope you will get something out of it and it is true that this is not a big deal. :)

Generic Repository with Entity Framework Core

Recently I worked on a project with ASP.NET Core which uses Entity Framework Core. With them, I used a generic repository pattern in the data layer. Repository interface was like below: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq.Expressions; using OnlineSurvey.Models; namespace OnlineSurvey.Data { public interface IRepository<T> where T : BaseEntity { T GetById(int id, params Expression<Func<T, object>>[] includExpressions); void Add(T entity); void Delete(T entity); void Delete(int id); IEnumerable<T> GetAll(params Expression<Func<T, object>>[] includExpressions); IEnumerable<T> Find(Expression<Func<T, bool>> where); int Count(); } } And the implementation was like below: using System; using System.Data.Entity; using System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure; using System.Collections.Generic; using Syste
