Answer 2

Try the following in your codebehind

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(), "scrptName", "javascript: alert('hi'); ", true);

You can replace alert('hi'); with your javascript function you want to call from code behind.

Answer 3

Hi

You can call Js functions as a script registered on the codebehind itself.

Page.RegisterStartupScript("key","value")

key is the name you want to give the script eg. "PageClose" value is the;

stringBuilder str = new StringBuilder()
str.Append("<script = language='javascript'>");
str.Append("window.close();");
str.Append("</script>")

here instead of using the window.close you coud append your js function as a string, ideally i put this string builder class and build the script in the constructor if i need it always in the page

Then use this in the event handler you want to execute the script

Page.RegisterStartUp("PageClose",str.ToString());

This would place the javascript before the closing tag of the page thats rendered

Page.ClientScriptBlock("PageClose",str.ToString());

This would place the JS function after the opening tag of the page thats rendered

Hope this helps
