Dear Sir,
In a simple form there are two text field and one submit button (button2).I want to perform some asp codeed work (here for example writing date for example...).Which should run on click of button1 withought submitting the form.

What is the best method to do so.?

1. One way could be write javascript function on onclick event of button1,but how to write it...

Do update this code for my learning please

Hii kumarop!!!

ASP code runs on the server rather than client browser ,
Its only the asp.dll that interprets asp code into Html which is sent to the client browser.

You can do the same thing using client side javascript.
Store the values in javascript variable and put it on span or div tag when user clicks the button
Hope this will help you

Cheers :)
