calling JavaScript function from code-behind

[Alexander Kaplunov]

Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way to call a JavaScript function from
code-behind. I know that you can add a "onclick" attribute to a button but
that is not what I'm looking for. What I'm looking for is something similar
to this:

Client side:

function test()
{
alert("Got test!");
}

Server side:

public void foo()
{
call_javascript_function("test");
}

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Any help is appreciated.
Alex.

have a look at registerstartupscript or you can just response.write it out
if push comes to shove

Or, in Page_Load, you can do this:

control.attributes.add(eventHandlerName, clientFunctionToRun)

have a look at registerstartupscript or you can just response.write it out
if push comes to shove

Not every control has attributes so this won't work in my case.

control.attributes.add(eventHandlerName, clientFunctionToRun)

Alex,

Nearly everything does have an eventhandler (onClick, onLoad, onChange,
onBlur, etc.). Your code doesn't tell us what it is you want to do other
than show us a server call to a client function. When do you need your
client function to fire?

OK, I am using Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls.ToolbarButton

This control has a ButtonClick event, which is handeled on the server. What
I really need is when this button is clicked to call a javascript function
on the client side.

you can still use the attributes function and append the javascript to the
particular button. Something like this should work:

//set a pointer to button number 2
ToolbarButton oSchedule = (ToolbarButton)Tools.Items[1];

//append javascript the normal way
oSchedule.Attributes blah blah blah

or you may want to just embed the javascript inside the text of the
particular button on the toolbar. You can do this either thru the above
statement and using

oSchedule.Text = "<onclick = 'somefunction()' span
style="color:brown;Borderutset;">View Rates</span>"

or you can just do it from the text attribute of the toolbar item property
in the designer.

Or catch the event at the form level. Add an attribute to the form, then
catch it there. Works properly only for IE.
