You can not call a server side function from the onclick event. You can call only the Javascript function.

Solution 2

Error: "btn.OnClientClick += new EventHandler(get);"

Try: "btn.OnClick += new EventHandler(get);"

OnClientClick is for Client Side events(Javascript).

If you need client fire client side event, Use "btn.Attributes.Add("onclick","JsFunction()");

btn does not having onclick property

insted i tried like
btn.Attributes.Add("onclick","get()");

public void get(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.mopopupeditrule.Show();
}

Solution 3

if you wants to add a server side function then

btn.OnClick += new EventHandler(btn_Click);

here Attaching a function using delegate.

If you wants to add a Javascript function then try

C#

btn.Attributes.Add("onclick", "javascript function name");

The way you have added attribute is correct. But you are expecting it to be a sever side method, which is not the case. The attribute 'onclick' has been added at the client side; which means get() should be a javascript method.

It would look something like this:

JavaScript

<script>
function get()
{
    //show modal dialog here...
}
</script>
