RaiseEvent Method
This content is outdated and is no longer being maintained. It is provided as a courtesy for individuals who are still using these technologies. This page may contain URLs that were valid when originally published, but now link to sites or pages that no longer exist.
Notifies Web Parts within a Web Part Page that an event has occurred.
RaiseEvent (NamespaceURN, EventName, EventObject)
Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
NamespaceURN |
A string indicating a user-defined namespace that defines a context for resolving event names, object names, and so on. |
EventName |
A string indicating the name of the event for which Web Parts can register. |
EventObject |
Optional. A Variant that contains additional data passed to the function registered for this event. Usually this is a reference to the object that triggered the event, for example, the button that fired the onClick event. |
Remarks
The RaiseEvent method works together with the RegisterForEvent method to create a coordinated response among Web Parts.
The NamespaceURN parameter defines the context for the event. For example, you can have multiple onChange events in a single Web Part or Web Part Page. By defining a NamespaceURN, you provide a way to distinguish between onChange events that occur on a Customer object, an Employee object, or some other object.
Examples of valid values include URLs, an object name, or some descriptive name. Valid examples include customer, myCompany.com:customer, and myCompany.com:myApp:customer.
