The button is derived from user control. I want to associate a pop-up window on click of that particular butoon. I can able to achieve this on click of anyother buttons on my base page but as that particular button is coming from a user control I am not able to trigger the pop-up window.

$('#btnSendOrder').click(function() {// code here}) // btnSendOrder is from a user control.In this case pop-up is not coming.

$('#btnSendOrder').click(function() { // code here}) // btnSend Order is from the base page itself. In this scenario pop-up comes out.

  • Maybe I am seriously missing something here - you forgot to tell us what programming language/paradigm this is.Just a lot of talk about buttons and popups... – Shane C. Mason Jun 19 '09 at 16:20
  • I'm sorry, I don't understand the question. The two code samples are functionally, identical. You need to explain the context. What are 'user control' and 'base page' referring to? – Kieran Hall Jun 19 '09 at 16:26
  • You should really consider adding the server tag instead of hardcoding the id, asi it won't work if your usercontrol changes containers. Check my answer for a better way to do it – juan Jun 19 '09 at 16:51

Since the button is being rendered on the server, its client ID is not what you are using

You can do this...

$('#<%= btnSendOrder.ClientID %>').click(function() {// code here})

... from your usercontrol, and the portion between <% and %> will be replaced with the real control id in the client html

Using a bit of jquery, it would be relatively trivial to associate the button with a click event on load of the page:

    $(".button").click(function() {
        PopupMyWindow();
    });

If you are using .NET, reember that your controls will end up looking something like: ctl1.UserControlName.ButtonName or something like that.

Check your markup code once it is rendered, then use the exact button name so that your jQuery knows which control to fire from.

  • Also take a look at what @Juan Manual did below. Ideally you should grab the ClientID, instead of hard coding it because depending on where that button lives in your app, its clientID might change. Just a heads up. – Jack Marchetti Jun 19 '09 at 16:57
