Asp.net + C# + JQuery: Click on a datalistItem which is a div then ItemCommand event will be fired?

Question

Hi,

I have an asp.net datalist like this:

<asp:DataList ID="DataList_Trips" OnItemCommand="DataList_Trips_ItemCommand" >
<ItemTemplate>
<div class="divListTrips">
</div>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>

Is there any chance when I click on the div with the class divListTrips, it will fire the event OnItemCommand?

Thanks in advance. Your help is much appreciated!

I would suggest using jQuery to call a page method, like in this example: http://www.seoasp.net/post/2008/07/16/jQuery-To-Call-ASPNET-Page-Methods-and-Web-Services.aspx

instead of trying to coerce it to call your ItemCommand handler.
