Solution 1

You can't use C# as a scripting language. C# runs server side and JavaScript is what executes on the client side.

You are comparing apple and orange, and that does not make sense. JavaScript is client-side scripting that adds programming capability to the otherwise static HTML page and is executed by browsers and is visible in the html page. On the other hand, C# is a server-side language that preforms application logic on the server and is hidden from the users.

I know the difference. But in few cases, I noticed c# language under the script tag attributed to run at "Server". I wanted to know if this is a good practice . Is it not going to effect the performance of the site..?
