calling a sub (function) from onclick button

[asp2008]

Happy New Year.

I am populating an html table with database records. Users may click on a check box and update one of the columns data. A button click will capture these data and update my table.
So my questions is.. is it possible to call vbscript fuction on button onclick ?
So it will be like but I get an error. What I am doing wrong?

Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

<%
Sub butnupdate
response.write( "Help" )

End Sub
%>


<input type="submit" name="updtcomment" value=" Update Comments" onclick="<%butnupdate%>">

ASP runs on the server.

onclick events run on the client.

You can call a serverside function from the client via ajax.

I recommend you discuss this in a javascript forum which is more applicable than here in ASP forum

This thread started in ASP, moved to Javascript, then back to ASP

In any event, I believe the OP's problem has been solved despite bulevardi posting a reply 3 weeks after the fact

Found a way.
Thank you.
