Running a JS from an Asp:button?

[hpl]

Is that possible? I have tried this:

<asp:button id=btnOpen OnClick="Javascript: openNewWindow();" tabIndex=20 Runat="server" CssClass="knap2" Text="Åbn fil"></asp:button>

where

<script language=javascript>
		function openNewWindow()
        {
			var winName = "";
            var winFeatures = "width=520,height=640,top=0,left=0,status";
            var winURL = "http://localhost/Prisberegning2004/udskrift.aspx"
            var w;
            w = window.open(winURL,winName,winFeatures);
        }
</script>

But it doesnt't work

There's a number of ways you could do it, 1 way would be to leave your javascript where it is on your .aspx page and add this line to page_load

btnOpen.Attributes.Add("onclick", "openNewWindow();")

GREAT GREAT, just what I needed!


Maybe you could have an idea of how I can execute a click-event when I hit enter in a textbox.

I have a login consisting of txtUser, txtPassword and btnLogin. When I have entered username and password and hit enter I wish to execute the btnLogin_click.

Page.RegisterHiddenField("__EVENTTARGET", "btnDefault")

where btnDefault is the name of your button.

Hmmm, I've tried that under Page_load, but nothing happens.

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Page.RegisterHiddenField("__EVENTTARGET", "Login")
    End Sub

hmm works for me everytime just tried a page with multiple buttons and it works for each one. when you run the page and view source do you get this line

<input type="hidden" name="__EVENTTARGET" value="Login" />

EDIT: There's a problem if you add a JS attribute to the button aswell as the above code, could that be the problem?

Nothing happens when I try to view the source

I have no JS connected to the button "Login"

Please send me the code you're using, then I will try to find out what goes wrong

Hi again, thanks for your code. The code works fine. But when I apply a new textbox (I have two textboxes in my Login app) something strange happens. When I hit enter the event for closing the window is running instead of the btnDefault2-event

Yep i've just done the same and got the same results.

I want to sort this out so i'll going to try some things.......
