Assigning Session variable from Javascript

Question

Hi all I am assigning a Session variable using Javascript as follows, I am using devexpress controls

<script type="text/javascript">
    function f() {
        var v = textBox1.GetValue();
        <%Session["Demo"] = v;%>
        var sValue='<%=Session["Demo"]%>';
        textBox3.SetValue(sValue);
    }
</script>

This is giving an error on webpage when I run as The name 'v' does not exist in the current context

So can some one help me what to do

Cannot be done , JS executes in client side .

As @The New Idiot mentioned - it cannot be done on a client side, since Session objects are stored on a server side. The only way you can do it is on some request get/post or even ajax request and set variable on a server side
