    var btnSave = document.getElementById('btnSave');
    btnSave.click();
    alert("The changes are saved sucessfully!!"); 
</script>

Answer 1

EDIT

Since this is an ASP.NET button.. you need to resolve what will be client id.

your code sould be

<script type= "text/javascript" language="javascript">
var btnSave = document.getElementById('<%= btnSave.ClientID %>');
btnSave.click();
alert("The changes are saved sucessfully!!"); 

Answer 2

i hope i am not confusing you here... let me try to list out..

• the button is an asp:button
• the event click is triggered from javascript
• an alert is placed after the click event is triggered

how will the control flow to the alert line at all? once the click event is triggered a post back process will start as it is an asp button...

Answer 3

click() is an IE only method to support simulating an event in script. It does not work in mozilla (firefox) or webkit (chrome, safari).

Did you try actually clicking on the element with your mouse?
