When defining your ListView template, it is just that ... a template, so the buttons don't yet exist. You will therefore need to use the ListView.ItemDataBound event to find and disable your button as each item is being bound.
<asp:ListView ID="MyListView" runat="server" OnItemDataBound="MyListView_ItemDataBound">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" OnClientClick="return deleteConfirm();">
<img src="../Admin/Images/deletebtn.png"alt="deletebtn" class="deleteimgbtn" id="dltbtn"/>
</asp:LinkButton>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:ListView>
protected void MyListView_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Item.ItemType == ListViewItemType.DataItem)
{
var LinkButton1 = (LinkButton)e.Item.FindControl("LinkButton1");
if (true) // insert your condition here
{
LinkButton1.Visible = false;
}
}
}
