Call jQuery function from ASP.NET code behind C#

Question

I have the following jquery function

> <script type="text/javascript">
> 
>     $(document).ready(function() {
> 
>         $('#callGrowel').click(function() {
>             $.growlUI('Email Received', 'from Joe Bloggs');
>         });
>     });
> 
> </script>

and in my aspx page I have a div

<div id="callGrowel" >Run Growe l</div>

but I need a way of calling the growlUI jquery function from my code behind file in C# rather than clicking on a div in the UI.

Is this possible??

Answer 1

This doesn't make sense really. Your C# code runs on the server to generate an HTML file which is passed to the client and translated there. jQuery can only operate on the HTML n the client side.

Is what you're trying to do not achieved by replacing

     $('#callGrowel').click(function() {
         $.growlUI('Email Received', 'from Joe Bloggs');
     });

with

     $.growlUI('Email Received', 'from Joe Bloggs');
