calling js file in asp project

Question

I have validation.js in scripts folder of my .net project. I am using asp:content pages which has master page. I have referenced the .js file in master page and used it in one of the asp:content web page but it does not work. I have also tried to reference it directly to the asp:content web page but it still does not work however when I copy the js code directly to the asp:content page of header section it works. I have tried several things such as

<script src='<%= Page.ResolveClientUrl("../Scripts/js/validation.js") %>' type="text/javascript"></script>

I have also tried:

<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/js/validation.js"></script>

What am I missing.

In my asp:content page I have textboxes such as

Please help me here

Try Remove the ../ and add ~/ i.e <script src='<%= Page.ResolveClientUrl("~/Scripts/js/validation.js") %>' type="text/javascript"></script> — Rajesh

Simply drag the js file and drop it on master page it will automatically add js file with correct path.

You could use a ScriptManager for referencing your JS file like

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
    <Scripts>
        <asp:ScriptReference Path="../Scripts/js/validation.js" />
    </Scripts>
</asp:ScriptManager>

If you want JS to be referenced in your Header section only you may use

<head>
    <script type="text/javascript" 
        src="<%= Page.ResolveClientUrl("~/Scripts/js/validation.js") %>"></script>
</head>

Drag and drop the you JS file after the body closing tag :

Sample;

</body>
<script src="../Scripts/js/validation.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</html>
