making a javascript alert pop up when clicking a button 
Hi,
I'm trying to get the client api to respond but somehow I cant even get a javascript to fire when clicking a button.
  The folloing works fine (in c#) :
myButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "alert('This JS function was added on the fly!');");

However, if I create a file called "test.js" with a function looking like this:

function test()
{
    alert('test');
}

and I then want the function to execute when clicking the button, nothing happens...

myButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "test");

Can anyone tell me whats wrong with my syntax or what I need to do?
I'm using visual web developer and I've placed the test.js file in the same directory as myModule, also I've tried to register the file using the following code:

if (this.Page.ClientScript.IsClientScriptBlockRegistered("test.js") == false)
                {
                    this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(),
                        "test.js", "<script language=javascript src=\"" + this.ModulePath +
                        "test.js\"></script>");
                }

Thanks,
Johannes

Re: making a javascript alert pop up when clicking a button 

Looks like you are missing the parenthesis in your onclick handler. 

myButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "test");

should be

myButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", "test()");
