title: Call Javascript function from code-behind in C#.NET
body: <p>I am trying to call a javascript simple alert function when I catch an exception in my C# code as follows:</p>
  
  <p>inside my function:</p>
  
  <pre><code>try
  {
      //something!
  }
  catch (Exception exc)
  {
      ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(Page), "SymbolError", 
       "&lt;script type='text/javascript'&gt;alert('Error !!!');return false;&lt;/script&gt;");
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there another way I can do this, because this doesn't show any alert boxes or anything??</p>
