Controls You Can Use on Web Forms   ASP.NET Standard Controls   Button Controls

An ImageButton control allows you to present a graphic as a clickable control.

1. Declare an <asp:ImageButton> element on the page.
2. Set the button’s ImageUrl property to point to an image file ( .gif, .jpg, .png ).
3. Assign the handler that will receive control when the Click event of the button occurs ( i.e., when a user clicks the control ).

<asp:ImageButton runat="server" 
   ImageUrl="myPic.jpg" 
   onClick="doSomething" />

The following sample illustrates using the ImageButton control.

The ImageUrl property can also be bound to a data source to display graphics based on database information, as when an ImageButton control is used within templated controls such as a DataGrid, DataList, GridView, FormView or Repeater.

The below example demonstrates how to assign a value to the ImageUrl property based on database information.
