How do I include JavaScript in an ASP.NET page?
You can include a script block in your ASP.NET page like this:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="HTML5Test.aspx.cs" Inherits="HTML5Test" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<script type="text/javascript">
function alertOnClick()
{
alert('Clicked It!');
}
</script>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>HTML5 Test</title>
<link href="App_Themes/MMTheme/mm.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button"></asp:Button></p>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>You can then add the JavaScript to an event on one of your ASP.NET controls like this:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button1.Attributes.Add("onclick", "alertOnClick();");
}
