Calling Javascript function from code behind ASP.NET

Question

I\'m attempting to call a javascript method in its own file from code behind on a button click.

aspx file

protected void Next_Click(object sender, EventA         


        

Answer 1

1). If the function is stored in external file (e.g. MyScript.js) then you should include it in the section of the web page and add onclick event to the button, like:

ButtonName.Attributes.Add("onclick", {YourFunction}); 

in Page_Load event.

2) Another approach is to assign the entire javascript function to a string variable and then pass it instead of {YourFunction} prefixed with javascript:. In this case you don't even need the external file.

Hope it will help. My best, Alex
