asp:RadioButton runat="server" - want to react to click event on client side

[Barry]

I've wasted the whole day trying things and researching, but nothing is
working. I would *greatly* appreciate if someone can give me the
solution to this problem.

I'm using the .NET Framework 2.0 in C# with a Master page and
additional .aspx pages with .cs code-behind pages in Windows XP.

In an .aspx page I have declared a control as follows:
<asp:RadioButto n runat="server" GroupName="rbtn S0"
ID="rbtnS0start " />

I want to do some event-side work whenever this RadioButton is clicked.
I've tried everything I've found, e.g., putting
rbtnS0start.Att ributes.Add("On Click", "rbtnS0start_Cl ick();");
in the .cs file's Page_Load event, and then specifying
<script type="javascrip t">
function rbtnS0start_Cli ck()
alert('test');
</script>
in the asp:Content section of the .aspx file. I get an "error on page"
from IE6 whenever I click that button. I've tried dozens of
combinations of things. (Unfortunately, there is no OnClick attribute
for an asp:RadioButton .)

Can someone *please* give me the code (and where it goes) so that I can
do client-side work when the user clicks an asp:RadioButton control?

Thank you *so much* to anyone who helps!

you need to legal javascript syntax to define the function.

<script type="javascrip t">
function rbtnS0start_Cli ck() {
alert('test');
}
</script>

Oh what a difference a couple of curly braces make! Imagine 9 hours
wasted because I didn't have the curly braces :-(. Thank you both very
much!!

Ok, now I want to work with my client controls (instead of just popping
up an alert). For instance when they click rbtnS0start I want the
javascript on the client to set rbtnS1start (another asp:RadioButton )
to be 'checked=true'. I've tried things like: rbtnS1start.Che cked =
true; but apparently that's not right because it doesn't check the
button or execute the rest of my javascript.

Obviously I'm quite new to client-side scripting, so any help/pointers
you can provide would be most appreciated. (Btw, I'm on the clock, so
the sooner someone will help me the better.)

Thank you!!

Well I finally figured out a way to do this. I couldn't get the
document.getEle mentById thing to work, and I'm sure there must be a
more concise way to do this (for example, passing an array) but I don't
know Javascript well enough. At this point, I don't care. I got it to
work, so I'm supplying the complete solution for the other poor souls
out there trying to do the same thing. As a reminder, what this does
is, when the user clicks the asp:RadioButton whose ASP ID is
rbtnS0start, I want the client to run Javascript in the .aspx page so
that the asp:RadioButton s named rbtnS1start thru rbtnS6start
automatically get checked.

In the code-behind page I have this code:
protected void Page_Load(objec t sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
rbtnS0start.Att ributes.Add("On Click", "rbtnS0start_Cl ick("
+
rbtnS1start.Cli entID + "," +
rbtnS2start.Cli entID + "," +
rbtnS3start.Cli entID + "," +
rbtnS4start.Cli entID + "," +
rbtnS5start.Cli entID + "," +
rbtnS6start.Cli entID +
");");
}
}

In the .aspx page, I included the following code just before the
</asp:Contenttag (which is the last tag on the page)...
<script type="text/javascript">
function rbtnS0start_Cli ck(b1,b2,b3,b4, b5,b6)
{
b1.checked = true;
b2.checked = true;
b3.checked = true;
b4.checked = true;
b5.checked = true;
b6.checked = true;
}
</script>

Could this have possibly been made any harder to do!!??
