Solution 2

if it is inside the repeater then

href='javascript:ShowUseSummary(<%#Eval("ID")%>);'>

js

function ShowUseSummary(id){

//...
return url;
}

It is showing the data like as below
);" id="AuxiliaryInfoRepeater_ctl01_auxiliaryInfoHyperLink" title="View Use"> .

It is not binding the data for ex data is test1 then it is not displayed in the UI.
