hyper link in SPGridview not binding Java script

Question

Hi all,

I am trying a hyperlink DataNavigateUrlFormatString  in SPGridView via java script.but the hyperlink text lost hyperlink, becomes regular
text, which means I can't click on it, how can I fix it?

           lnkReqno = new HyperLinkField();
            lnkReqno.DataTextField = "Reqno";
            lnkReqno.HeaderStyle.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#66727c");
            lnkReqno.HeaderStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Left;
            lnkReqno.ItemStyle.ForeColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#ffffff");
            
          lnkReqno.DataNavigateUrlFormatString = "javascript:alert('hi')";           
     
            lnkReqno.Visible = true;
            lnkReqno.HeaderText = "Request #";
           
            SPRequestGridView.Columns.Add(lnkReqno);

Hi,

To call a javascript, you have to register the javascript on webpart page. To render the javascript on webpart page you have to use

string strScript="<script type='text/javascript' language='javascript'>function redirecturl(){alert('HI')}";
this.Page.RegisterStartUpScript("alert",strScript);
lnkReqno.DataNavigateUrlFormatString = "javascript:redirecturl();";

Hi, 

That solution is not working for me, at the end my Link has the next structure <a>Time Tracking</a> without href attribute, any suggestion?

This is my code:

HyperLinkField LinkColName = new HyperLinkField();
            LinkColName.HeaderText = "Time Tracking";
            LinkColName.Text = "Time Tracking";            
            LinkColName.DataNavigateUrlFields = new string[] { Id,Title  };
            LinkColName.DataNavigateUrlFormatString = @"javascript:CallTimeTracking();";
