hi, If you want to run the javascript and the server side code with a single button click event,then, you can do as follows: Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Response.Write("Postback: This is a server-side event ") End Sub function AlertHello(){ alert("Hello ..This is a client side Java script") } and add this line: So, when you click the Button, both the events are triggered... hope this helps..

pp_TextBox1 and pp_Calendar1 are the property procedures that I've written to retireve the values from TextBox & selected date on Calendar.I've two buttons on Page1. When I click on Button1, the contents of TextBox & selected Calendar date are displayed onto the same page on a label.I'm able to get this .When I click on Button2, I want to transfer the contents of TextBox and Calendar control to a label on Page2. When I click the Button2, the Page2.aspx form is loaded but I dont see any display on the label... I'm working this example from Professional ASP.Net 2.0 book by wrox publications.They have given an example using FindControl method but I didn't get any output on Page2.aspx even then..So, please tell me where I'm going wrong ??? Thanks in advance..

hi Britney, I tried this piece of code but still I'm not able to display the contents of textbox & the selected calendar date onto a label on page2.I've written the response.redirect code in a Button2_Click Sub. The control is transferred from page1 to page2 and the page2 url will carry the contents of strings message1 & message2, but they are not being displayed onto the label.Can you please tell me where I'm going wrong ??? thanks a lot for your help.

hi friends, I'm trying an example on PostBackURL.My application has two pages,page1.aspx & page2.aspx. On page1,I've a textbox & a calendar with 2 button controls.I'm trying to display the selected contents on Page1 into a label on Page2.Here's what my code on Page1.aspx looks like Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Label1.Text = "Hello " & TextBox1.Text & "
" & _ "Date Selected: " & Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString() End Sub

On Page2.aspx, I've included a virtual path to reference page1 & Code on page2.aspx is: Protected Sub PageLoad(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) lblDisplay.Text = "Hello" & PreviousPage.pp_TextBox1.Text & "
" & _ "Date Selected: " & _ PreviousPage.pp_Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToShortDateString() End Sub I'm not getting any errors & neither am i getting any display on Page2.aspx. can anyone please help me find the solution ? Thanks a lot in advance..

hi, I got my MCAD about 2 months ago in VB .net.You can go ahead and take SQL server if you've some work exp in it.I didn't find it hard 'coz I'd knowledge of client -server concepts/SQL/PL/SQL etc..so,i felt the exam was easy.Re! certifications, I'd have to say that with good work exp, a certification definitely helps atleast to get to the interview stage. Good luck and have fun

Thanks Apurva
