[RESOLVED] [2008] Javascript in a Web User Control

[keystone_paul]

I'm having a problem - hope someone can help.

I am developing a website using ASP.Net, the basic layout is governed by a master page with a header, footer and left column, and then a content block in the middle.

I am building a user control to basically handle the left-column which is basically a menu of links which is made up graphically of a few images layered on top of each other. I want to implement roll-over highlighting of options, so I've taken some existing javascript which I know works fine to pre-load the images, and to handle the switching on mouse over and exit.

The problem I have is that when I run a page with this control on it, the code is failing because its looking for the javascript routine within the body of the page that is hosting the control, not within the control itself.

So my question - is it possible to embed the javascript within the control? Is it just a case of needing to explicitly referencing the control?

How did you place the javascript in the control in the first place? If you want to embed it directly you could always place it within <script> tags in the controls

<script type="text/JavaScript">
function abc()
{
...
}
</script>
