I have created a class library DLL to be referenced from any third-party application and it contains only one function that calls a JavaScript to read a local file and returns some values from the file to referencing application.
I used:
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write
but it writes the JavaScript function at the beginning of the referencing page so it can never be executed.Then, to write the JavaScript at the end of the referencing page I used:
Dim CSM As UI.ClientScriptManager = System.Web.UI.Page.ClientScript
and I used also:Me.Page.ClientScript CSM.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Me.GetType(), "SCRIPTNAME", JavaScriptSuntax.ToString)
And it shows an error message: Reference to a non-shared member requires a shared reference.
I tried:
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript("", Me.GetType(), "SCRIPTNAME", JavaScriptSuntax.ToString)
but it gave me an error message: Name "ScriptManager" is not declared.
I add references to the following:
System.Web, System.Web.UI, System.Web.UI.ClientScriptManager, System.Web.UI.Page, System.Text
How can I call a JavaScript from a class library DLL to be performed correctly from any referencing asp.net application??
Thanks for the help in advance.
Code Sample:
** Correction now it writes the JavaScript in the body tag but for some reason it doesn't work!!!
