Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of the RegisterStartupScript method in conjunction with the IsStartupScriptRegistered method. If the ECMAScript written in the code declaration block has not already been registered, as determined by IsStartupScriptRegistered, then a RegisterStartupScript call is made.

Remarks

Call this method before calling Page.RegisterStartupScript to avoid unnecessarily assembling the client-side script. This is particularly important if the script requires a large amount of server resources to create.

The IsStartupScriptRegistered method has been deprecated. Use the IsStartupScriptRegistered method in the ClientScriptManager class.
