Passing arguments to call a javscript function from aspx.cs file

[moni]

Hi..

I am trying to use javascript for google maps display.


If I call the javascript function from my aspx file I use:


<input type="text" id="addresstext" value="Huntington Avenue,
Boston, MA" name="yourName" style="width: 287px" />
<input type="button" id="addressclick" value="Display Map"
onclick="showAddress(addresstext.value)" /><br />


and it works.

But using the Response.Write from the aspx.cs file it
does not display it. I need to pass an argument to the function
call.Am I passing the value wrongly??

I am calling it this way:


Response.Write("<script
language='javascript'>showAddress(getAddress);</script>");


where, getAddress is the comma-seperated Address string.

This is not displaying the map, I am creating using Javascript.

Thx

Yes, you are passing the literal string "getAddress". I think what you want
is to pass an actual value of a string variable that represents your comma -
delimited address string, e.g.:

string getAddress = "1 Park Ave, New York, NY, 10023";
Response.Write("<script
language='javascript'>showAddress(" +getAddress+ ");</script>");

Thanx for the reply....but when i use this, it runs w/o displaying the
map, and gives,

Done,with errors on the page
Error: Expected ')'

But my javascript function works otherwise, and the Response.Write
line also calls it exactly this way

Response.Write("<script language='javascript'>showAddress("
+getAddress+ ");</script>");

Can you tell me wat the possible error could be.

Try putting single quotes around the parameter value, to the left and to the
right of the double quotes. Look at the string that is emitted and see if it
is legal javascript.
