title: Open popup with linkbutton
body: <p>I am using bootstrap modal popup, and this <code>div</code> is (FOR EXAMPLE) a popup [using a repeater]</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div id="messageContent"&gt;Hello World!&lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This pop-up can be opened by doing this (this works):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="#messageContent" role="button" class="btn" data-toggle="modal"&gt;Open Popup&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I want to pass some <code>DataBinder.Eval</code>-values with the <code>&lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code>, and this is not possible, so this is what I tried with a <code>linkbutton</code>:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;asp:LinkButton ID="lbOpenMessage" runat="server" CommandName="OpenMessage" CommandArgument='&lt;%#Eval("MessageID")%&gt;'&gt;Open Popup&lt;/asp:LinkButton&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I am not abled to call the <code>&lt;a href="#messageContent"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code> in the linkbutton to open the pop-up.</p>
  
  <p>When I do something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;asp:LinkButton ID="lbOpenMessage" runat="server" CommandName="OpenMessage" CommandArgument='&lt;%#Eval("MessageID")%&gt;'&gt;
  &lt;a href="#messageContent" role="button" class="btn" data-toggle="modal"&gt;Open Popup&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;/asp:LinkButton&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then the <code>e.Commandname</code>-event doesn't get fired, so I don't get the MessageID.</p>
  
  <p>What can I do to open the pop-up with <code>&lt;a href="#messageContent"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code>, with passing the <code>DataBinder.Eval</code>-values?</p>
  
  <p>I did some research, but couldn't find anything.</p>
