OnclientClick Databinder.Eval problem

[daveonion]

Hi,
I have a javafunction which I am trying to pass a parameter using databinder.eval onclientclick of a button in a gridview, however i cant seem to get the correct syntax.

See below

OnClientClick= 'return confirmClose("<%#Databinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Recieved")%>");'

Please advise if its possible or not

thanks

i think you mean javascript, not java. completely different
is Received a string or boolean? if it's a string it needs to be in quotes (single or double), if it's a number or boolean then you don't need quotes on the client (javascript) side. for example

OnClientClick= 'return confirmClose(<%#Databinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Recieved")%>);'

you could also try using an equals, instead of a a pound sign

OnClientClick= 'return confirmClose("<%=Databinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Recieved")%>");'

a third option. build the entire string on the server

OnClientClick= '<%=string.Format("return confirmClose('{0}');", Databinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Recieved"))%>'

I believe on of these approaches should work. It's been a long time since I had to deal with webforms, so my syntax may be off.
