# How to: Call a Page Function
This example shows how to call a page function from a [!INCLUDE[TLA#tla_xaml](../../../includes/tlasharptla-xaml-md.md)] page.
## Example
You can navigate to a page function using a uniform resource identifier (URI), just as you can when you navigate to a page. This is shown in the following example.
[!code-csharp[HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets#NavigateToAPageFunctionLikeAPageCODEBEHIND](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets/CSharp/CallingPage.xaml.cs#navigatetoapagefunctionlikeapagecodebehind)]
[!code-vb[HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets#NavigateToAPageFunctionLikeAPageCODEBEHIND](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets/VisualBasic/CallingPage.xaml.vb#navigatetoapagefunctionlikeapagecodebehind)]
If you need to pass data to the page function, you can create an instance of it and pass the data by setting a property. Or, as the following example shows, you can pass the data using a non-parameterless constructor.
[!code-xaml[HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets#CallAPageFunctionXAML](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets/CSharp/CallingPage.xaml#callapagefunctionxaml)]
[!code-csharp[HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets#CallAPageFunctionCODEBEHIND](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets/CSharp/CallingPage.xaml.cs#callapagefunctioncodebehind)]
[!code-vb[HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets#CallAPageFunctionCODEBEHIND](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/HOWTOPageFunctionSnippets/VisualBasic/CallingPage.xaml.vb#callapagefunctioncodebehind)]
