Hi everyone, I would like to pass the title attribute in the pagination dynamically and I'm trying to do it.

Certainly! If you're looking to dynamically set the title attribute for pagination links in ASPRunner.NET, you can achieve this by modifying the pagination template or by using an event to customize the rendering of the pagination controls.

Here’s a general approach you can take:

1. Use Custom Pagination Template

If you are using a custom template for your pagination, you can directly add the title attribute to the pagination links. You would typically find this in the template files or in the settings for your pagination in ASPRunner.NET.

For example, in your pagination template, you could do something like this:

<a href="page.aspx?page=1" title="Go to page 1">1</a>
<a href="page.aspx?page=2" title="Go to page 2">2</a>

2. Use Events to Customize Pagination

You can also use server-side events to customize the pagination links dynamically. Here’s how you can do it:

  • Go to the Events section in ASPRunner.NET.
  • Find the appropriate event for your pagination (like BeforeDisplay or BeforeProcess).
  • In this event, you can modify the pagination links to include a dynamic title.

Here’s an example of what the code might look like in the BeforeProcess event:

protected void BeforeProcess()
{
// Assuming `pagination` is the pagination object
foreach (var pageLink in pagination.Links)
{
// Set the title attribute dynamically based on the page number
pageLink.Attributes["title"] = $"Navigate to page {pageLink.PageNumber}";
}
}

3. JavaScript Solution

If you prefer to handle it on the client side, you can use JavaScript to add the title attributes after the page loads:

document.querySelectorAll('.pagination a').forEach(link => {
const pageNumber = link.textContent; // Get the text content (page number)
link.setAttribute('title', `Navigate to page ${pageNumber}`); // Set the title attribute
});

Make sure to include this script in your page, either in the <head> or just before the closing </body> tag.

Conclusion

Choose the approach that best fits your needs. If you need to set the title attribute based on specific conditions or values, using server-side events might be the best option. If you want more straightforward control or minor adjustments, JavaScript can be a quick solution.

Feel free to ask if you need more specific guidance or examples!

The question doesn't make much sense. What does title attribute has to do with pagination? You need to provide more info, what exactly you are trying to achieve?
