onclick and onclientclick

Question

I have the following line in asp.net

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="createuser" 
    OnClientClick="javascript:$('#dialogform').dialog('open');" 
    onclick="AddCaseInfo_Click">Create Case</asp:LinkButton>

onclientclick works fine, but not onclick. I tried

OnClientClick="javascript:$('#dialogform').dialog('open');return true;"

or

OnClientClick="javascript: return $('#dialogform').dialog('open');"

...but it still doesnt work.

:( Any help please?

You shouldn't have to specify javascript: or return true:

OnClientClick="$('#dialogform').dialog('open');"
