Asp.Net C# get checkbox value of “this” checked checkbox without looping

Question

I have hundreds of checkboxes that are dynamically created with different values. They are all the same id. I am using asp.net c# checkbox.

Without looping through all of the checkboxes, I'd like to only deal with the checkbox I actually click. Basically, the same behavior you would get using JQuery $(this).val(); for example.

I know this can be done using Jquery but I need to do it with C#. I'm trying to figure how to do the equivalent of the code below in C#.

$('.maingrid input[type=checkbox]').click(function() {
   var value = $(this).next("label").text();
   console.log(value);
});

Answer 1

Create an event handler and set the checkboxes onCheckedChanged see here event to that event handler. When the event is called, cast the sender to a CheckBox in to a var and go from there.
