Can I call a code behind function from a div onclick event?

Question

I have a bunch of divs on my page that are added at run time dynamically. When any of the dynamically added divs are clicked - All need to call the same function in my code

I'm not used to write VB code so my example is in C# but maybe it can help you get started. It's probably not the cleanest way to implement this, but i'll give it a try:

HTML

 

        Footer Controls and stuff go here
    

Client

Server

private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   var arg = Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"]; 'this will be empty on your first page request, but if the user click a div it will cause a postback to server, so this event will be fired again and will contain the div ID.

   if(arg != null)
   {
      string divID = (string)arg;
      'call your method with the argument.
   }
}
