How to access server side script inside a javascript function?

I've used sever-side to diclared the function and values passed int he those funtions inside javascript. But, thats taking place before the page is being sent to the client. I don't think the client can call back to the server. (Sounds like a big security risk for Db information) Sorry I wasn't more help.
No, client-side script cannot call server-side script functions. Ever.
Server-side script is processed and completed before the client computer ever sees the page. The only way to "call" a server-side function using client-side scripting would be to browse to another page.

A pirate walks into a bar with a huge ship's steering wheel down his pants.
The bartender asks, "Are you aware that you have a steering wheel down your pants?"
The pirate replies, "Arrrrr! It's driving me nuts!

One way to do what you're doing is to maybe open a small popup window with the function. The popup window could be a PHP or ASP file that will do your server-side scripting for you, then the window could close.

This is from msdn:
Now, I want to replace:
oPopBody.innerHTML = "Click outside <B>popup</B> to close.";
With an ASP form so that I can save the info to database. Like: oPopBody.innerHTML = <%=MySaveFunction()%>
OR:
oPopBody.innerHTML = "<form .....>blab blab"</form>
When I try to submit the form, nothing happen.
Just don't ask me why I don't use window.open
Any help would greatly appreciated!
Code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Popup Example</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript">
var oPopup = window.createPopup();
function ButtonClick()
{
var oPopBody = oPopup.document.body;
oPopBody.style.backgroundColor = "lightyellow";
oPopBody.style.border = "solid black 1px";
oPopBody.innerHTML = "Click outside <B>popup</B> to close.";
oPopup.show(100, 100, 180, 25, document.body);
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<BUTTON onclick="ButtonClick()">Click Me!</BUTTON>
</BODY>

I found the following code on a website that calls another page and updates a database without redirecting/reloading the page.
The code is part of a funtion that is called when an image is clicked on.
Has anyone used this technique before or has more info about it?
