Question

I am trying to pass this eval to javascript but keep on getting the following error:

<input type="submit" value="Send" id="btnPDf" onclick='<%# "openLink( " +   Eval("ID" )  +  "  );" %>' runat="server" />

the error in firebug:

Timestamp: 12/11/2012 17:59:16
Error: SyntaxError: identifier starts immediately after numeric literal
Line: 1, Column: 24
Source Code:
openLink( b690d0c5-9269-424a-ac57-02f3359c982f );

I have tried passing it with double quotes and back slashes like ‘\’ but still no joy

Answer 1

Your string concatenation is broken. You need to wrap your parameter in quotes using escape sequences –

onclick='<%# "openLink(\"" + Eval("ID" ) + "\" );" %>'
