Session is a Sever object not client, so you cannot access it in javascript code. You have to pass the string to the server either through querystring or through any form field and then get it on the server and add it to the session

Thanks Bhatti, Can you please tell me how do you call a server side method from the Javascript? Thanks

What are you really trying to do? You are in ASP.NET forum which means you have an idea how web forms works. So basically you add a ASP:Button in you page and onclientclick you call the javascript function, in that function you change the value of any hidden field or regular textbox and submit the form. And on server side you add the click handler to the button and in that eevnt handler you get the value of that field. Please go through quickstart tutorials[^] to understand the whole flow. e.g. you will call the following javascript function onclicentclick of the button: function TestOne() { // stringOne is asp:hidden field document.myform.stringOne.value = 'stringOne'; docuemt.myform.submit(); } and on server side in event handler for click event of button you will do this: Session["Test"] = stringOne.Value;
