Question

I am having a web page and i applied script manager on it. On the page load i am checking some condition and showing a Javascript ShowModalDialog from code and it is working fine.

int isAnyNonProdTaskActive = _nonProduction.IsAnyTaskActive(UserIDFromDB);
            if (isAnyNonProdTaskActive > 0)
            {
                //Displays and Logs Message
                _loggerDetails.LogMessage = "EmployeeQuotient.Production.Page_Load()     One NonProduction incomplete task found, NonProductionTimeEntryID : " + isAnyNonProdTaskActive.ToString();
                _writeLog.LogDetails(_loggerDetails.LogLevel_Info, _loggerDetails.LogMessage);

                Session["TaskActiveNonProd"] = isAnyNonProdTaskActive;
                Page page = HttpContext.Current.CurrentHandler as Page;

                //Displays and Logs Message
                _loggerDetails.LogMessage = "EmployeeQuotient.Production.Page_Load()     Opening ElapsedClockNonProd.aspx to complete the incomplete task id :" + isAnyNonProdTaskActive.ToString();
                _writeLog.LogDetails(_loggerDetails.LogLevel_Info, _loggerDetails.LogMessage);

                ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(page, page.GetType(), "OpenModalDialog", "<script type=text/javascript>window.showModalDialog('ElapsedClockNonProd.aspx?code=" + isAnyNonProdTaskActive.ToString() + "', null, 'unadorned:yes ;resizable:0 ;dialogWidth:300px ;dialogHeight:300px ;status:no ;scroll:no ;status=no;'); </script>", false);
            }

The same code i am applying on a Button on the same page then i am getting error.The error message is :- Microsoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: The script tag registered for type ‘ASP.associates_production_aspx’ and key ‘OpenModalDialog’ has invalid characters outside of the script tags: window.showModalDialog(‘ElapsedClockNonProd.aspx?code=464’, null, ‘unadorned:yes ;resizable:0 ;dialogWidth:300px ;dialogHeight:300px ;status:no ;scroll:no ;status=no;’); . Only properly formatted script tags can be registered.

Guide me that how i fix this error.I am not getting that why on the button click it is not working but while page load the same script is working without any issues..

ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(page, page.GetType(), "OpenModalDialog", "<script type='text/javascript'>window.showModalDialog('ElapsedClockNonProd.aspx?code=" + isAnyNonProdTaskActive.ToString() + "', null, 'unadorned:yes ;resizable:0 ;dialogWidth:300px ;dialogHeight:300px ;status:no ;scroll:no ;status=no;'); </script>", false);
