ASP.NET

<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Lunch" CausesValidation="false" CssClass="bigbuttons" style="background:url(../App_Themes/Images/green-box.gif)" Font-Bold="True"  ForeColor="White" Font-Size="Large" OnClientClick="openmodalWin(); return false;"  /> <br />

JavaScript:-

JavaScript

function openmodalWin() {
        var CloseTImeOfPopUp = window.showModalDialog("ClockPopUP.aspx", "Clock", "dialogWidth:550px;dialogHeight:350px,");
        }

As you can see that i m calling a javascript function "openmodalWin" on the Button Click event .I had checked that the function is returning CloseTimeofPopUp sucessfully and i am able to display it via Alert box. I want that the reurn value from the javascript function, i can store on the same server side code i.e. Button1_OnClick() event and then i can store it to database. Please tell me how i can do this ?

Solution 2

hidden field is a good solution
but
other than hidden field, if picking value is not very urgent or you need this value across multiple pages. inside JS you can save the value in Session as well and pick the value on last postback where you need to pick this value and save in database

Solution 1

when you got value of time by js in your variable
you can set it into a hidden field

and remove "return false" from your button
and add OnClick event on that button (by double click on button a event added in cs page)

after that hidden field value can be access in Asp.Net Page

I had done as per your guidance, I had created a hidden field and set the value to that hidden field. Then i removed "return false" from the button but and i also created the OnClick event also and added string lunchelapsedTime = Request.Form["hiddenLunchElapsed"]; but when i debug it is showing null.

you should add a hidden control of asp.net control
also accessible in asp.net page
