Ok, so I've got some HTML that's generated dynamically. Part of it
StringBuilder.Append("<input type=\"button\" onclick=\"Email_Clicked\" value=\"Email\" class=\"button\" runat=\"server\" />");
I need this to call C# method Email_Clicked
How can I accomplish this without asp:button control?
What about doing an ajax call to a method in your aspx page with jQuery? Take a look at this post about Using jQuery to directly call ASP.NET AJAX page methods
As mentioned before, Ajax is easy to implement and will do the trick. Put this attribute on your method:
<Ajax.AjaxMethod(Ajax.HttpSessionStateRequirement.ReadWrite)> _
Public Function DoSomething() As Integer
'handle stuff
End Function
you can call the method from javascript by using this:
Declaration.DoSomething()
don't forget to register your ajax call object in for example the pageload:
Ajax.Utility.RegisterTypeForAjax(GetType(Declaration))
If you don't register it, calling Declaration.DoSomething() won't work.
You can "manually" force a postback by calling the __doPostBack method in JavaScript. The following web page contains a short tutorial on how to do that:
You can't.. directly.
You can use Page Methods or plain AJAX for this though.
Here is relevant question here combining both:
Calling an ASP.NET server side method via jQuery
use
onserverclick="Email_Clicked"
