Accessing a javascript function from within an ascx
-
Hi I am wondering what the best way is to access jscript from within an ascx control? If you have a button or another object; then you can simply use one of the pre - existing attributes such as for instance "onclientclick" to access your script. Another way would be to fire another controls event that we use as a caller - object. Maybe change the style of the control to "style = "display:none" or something like that, then just call its event to trigger execution. I am uncertain as to how this method works. The ascx is part of html page so maybe because the ascx is parsed in the html - parent; one could reference that page and point to the script that contains the code that we wish to execute. If someone could please give me an example of how this would work; it would be greatly appreciated. :-D Thanking you in advance

There is no such thing as an ascx on the client side, it's code is just part of the html that's generated. So, any script that is included in the page, you can call from the control.
