Example onClick Event:
Here i am showing how one can use this event & add event handler. Example covers both asp.net server side control & HTML control. To run this example just copy the below code then run your page. Add the below function in your javascript block:

function funcOnClick()
{
// Code goes here
alert("Click event fired");
// Return false never make a post back to server.
// so one can add validation by using this concept. If return true then the page will be post back to server
return false;
}

Add the handler:

<asp:button runat="server" id="cmdOnClick" text="OnClientClick" onclientclick="return funcOnClick();">
<asp:button runat="server" id="cmdOnClick" text="OnClientClick" onclientclick="return funcOnClick();">
<asp:button runat="server" id="cmdRunTime" text="Server Control onClick">
<input type="button" name="cmdHTML" value="HTML onClick" onclick="return funcOnClick();">
