Add a html attribute to asp.net control (asp:HyperlinkField)

I would like to know if it's possible to add attribute to asp control like . I'm using bootstrap and I need to add this attributes (data-toogle, data-remote, data-target).

I need to add them here:

<asp:HyperLinkField DataTextField="USER_ID" HeaderText="" datanavigateurlfields="USER_ID"
                datanavigateurlformatstring="~\Delete.aspx?user_id={0}" ControlStyle-CssClass="aDelete" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#modalDialog" data-remote="false"/>

Obviously this doesn't work. Wonder if someone could help me with this.

Solved it with JQuery, it seems that "Attributes" class isnt't defined for HyperLinkField so it is impossible to add attributes from CodeBehind or even JavaScript, I think.

$(document).ready(function () {
        $('.aDelete').click(function () {
            $('#ModalDialog').modal();
        });
    });

Depending on the control, you can add the attribute directly to it e.g.

<asp:HyperLink ID="foo" runat="server" Text="foo" data-foobar="hello" />

Renders as

<a id="ctl00_ctl00_plcMain_plcMain_foo" data-foobar="hello">foo</a>

Failing that you can access the controls AttributeCollection and add it there in the code behind:

foo.Attributes.Add("data-foobar", "hello");
