how to call aspx variable from Javascript

I saw some web page saying I could do it this way in
javascript:
var iNumber = <%#publicvarname [or] publicpropertyname %>

but it doesn't seem to work. I have this piece of code
here in javascript:
<script language="javascript">
var sessionServer = "<%#jsTestServer%>";
alert(sessionServer);
</script>

and the variable is defined in the C# code behind:
public string jsTestServer
= "\\\\TestServer\\TestSession\\";

when I run it, alert has no message in it.

Jade,

Try <%= jsTestServer %> instead of <%# jsTestServer %>.
Hope this helps.

<%# is the DataBinding syntax. You need to make sure you call DataBind() on
your page (in the server code. You can also use <%=someVariable%>, which
will print the value out when it runs. The DataBind way is a little more
elegant, I feel.

It still doesn't work. Here is exactly what I have now:

<script language="javascript">
var sessionServer = "<%=jsTestServer%>";
alert(sessionServer);

function CreateSessionFlag()
{
alert("hello");
}

function DeleteSessionFlag()
{
alert("bye");
}
</script>
</head>
<body MS_POSITIONING="GridLayout"
onLoad="CreateSessionFlag();">

In the C# code behind:
public class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
public string jsTestServer
= "\\\\ze483z\\TestSession\\";

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs
e)
{ // Put user code to initialize the page here }

It's a very simple test program. After I changed to "<%
=jsTestServer%>", it generates some jscript error -
object expected on the "onload" line. If I used the old
way var sessionServer = "<%#jsTestServer%>"; it pops up
an alert with empty message.

Check out HTML output. If you have \\ characters, they will get interpreted
by C#. Try with your variable as "Hello, JScript!" :).

Using the <%# syntax, did you do a this.DataBind(); call in your OnLoad or
somewhere?

It did interpreted correctly in HTML:
var sessionServer = "\\ze483z\TestSession\";

where/how should I use "this.DataBind();" exactly in
Onload???

Right, and that's not valid for JScript, thus the runtime error.

this.DataBind(); // That's it

That binds all the <%# markers.

I'm sorry, Mike. I still don't know where to
put "this.DataBind();" I put it in
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
this.DataBind();
}

and I still have the runtime error.

The runtime error is from JScript most likely.

var sessionServer = "\\ze483z\TestSession\"; is not a valid string literal.
