Client-side scripting on server control

[Mantorok]

Hi all

Is it possible to have client-side scripts executed from server controls, I
have a BulletList control and when they click on an item in the list I need
some javascript to be executed.

Thanks
Kev

Kev,

You need to attach client-side events to the control. You need to
understand
what HTML elements the control renders as and how to get to the elements
from server code.

Do you have any examples or guidance for me on achieving that?

Thanks
Kev

No, it's a v2.0 control.

What is a BulletList control? Is it your custom control?

re:

Is it ? I can't find it in my 2.0 documentation,
nor on the online msdn2 docs. Would you post an online reference ?

I know it's a Display mode for the <asp:ValidationSummary control :
DisplayMode="BulletList | List ( but that works in v 1.1, too )
or, more properly, it's one of the Members of the DisplayMode
Enumeration ( the others are "List" and "SingleParagraph ).

I thought it could be a control which Dino Esposito authored :

Aha, thank you, i'll give that a go.

Look at Attributes property. You need to know what client event you want
to
handle and set the attribute for this event to the name of a javascript
function that will handle it.:

myList.Attributes["<client event>"]="handleTheEvent();";

Again, you need to find out what html tag the BulletedList is rendered as
and what event you need to handle for this tag.

Oops, I meant BulletedList....

Ahh, the mystery unravels!
I was scratching my head on that one... ;-)
