how to use hyperlink in datalist

<asp:datalist id="DataList2" runat="server" datasourceid="SqlDataSource2" repeatcolumns="5" repeatdirection="Horizontal" horizontalalign="Center" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
   <itemtemplate>
     <asp:hyperlink id="HyperLink1" runat="server" navigateurl="<%# Eval("Url") %>" text="<%# Eval("Name") %>" />
    </itemtemplate>
</asp:datalist>

you should edit the item template of the DataList and put an ASP HyperLink inside, and you use data binding to assign the NavigateUrl to such control.

<pre lang="xml">&lt;asp:DataList ID=&quot;listSearchResults&quot; Border=&quot;1&quot; BorderColor=&quot;Black&quot;
    RepeatDirect=&quot;Horizontal&quot; RepeatColumns=&quot;5&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; &gt;
    &lt;ItemTemplate&gt;

     &lt;asp:HyperLink ID=&quot;HyperLink1&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; NavigateUrl=&#39;&lt;%# Eval(&quot;Url&quot;) %&gt;&#39; Text=&#39;&lt;%# Eval(&quot;Name&quot;) %&gt;&#39; /&gt;

    &lt;/ItemTemplate&gt;
&lt;/asp:DataList&gt;</pre>

<asp:datalist onitemcommand="itemcommand" id="DataList1" runat="server" datakeyfield="name" width="600px" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" RepeatColumns="3" HorizontalAlign="Center">
<itemtemplate>
<asp:linkbutton id="lnk" cssclass="Name" commandname="lnk1" runat="server" text="xyz"></asp:linkbutton><br />
</asp:label>
</itemtemplate>
</asp:datalist>

protected void itemcommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName.Equals("lnk1"))
{
Response.Redirect("Acer.aspx");
}
}
