what the heck?!?!?!?

Paul W

ok - I've pissed away a morning on this. I keep getting a 'Server Tag is not
well formed' error on a page. I have simplified the page to the point of
ridiculous - and it still fails. The problem is related to the assignment to
'bightml2' in the JS.

If I change it to read "...runat="qqqqqq" then it works, but
"...runat="server" fails!!!!!

PLEASE can someone point me in the right direction?

Paul.

This does not look right.

bightml2='style="WIDTH: 24px"type="text" size="1" value="1"
name="txtNumber"

There are extra quotes

you probably need to get the asp.net parser to stop looking at the literal
JS string.

Do that by breaking it up, and besides it doesn't make sense to output
"runat=server" on client side code!

when asp.net parses the html if it sees a runat=server, it expects to be
inside a valid tag. in this case its not so it gives the error. the fix is:

var bightml2 ='style="WIDTH: 24px"type="text" size="1" value="1"
name="txtNumber"
runat' + ' ="server">'

of course javascrip emitted html is only processed by the browser, so
runat=server is meanless. so you could just use:

var bightml2 ='style="WIDTH: 24px"type="text" size="1" value="1"
name="txtNumber" >'
