Hi,<br />
<br />
I don't think i've ever use the button control. But with input I would do it like this :<br />
<br />
The way I would select a button like you are trying to is :<br />
<br />
&lt;input type=&quot;button&quot; id=&quot;ctl00_ContentPlaceHold<wbr />er1_btnSub<wbr />mitOrder&quot; class=&quot;btn&quot; value=&quot;Submit Order&quot;&gt;&lt;/input&gt;<br />
<br />
$(&quot;input[id*=_btnSubmitOrd<wbr />er]&quot;).clic<wbr />k(function<wbr />() {<br />
&nbsp; if (validateNotes) {<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; return true;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; else {<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; return false;<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; }<br />
});<br />

</div>

Are there any differences between &quot;button&quot; and &quot;input&quot; for the click event?<br />
My click event is not firing.<br />

Are there any differences between "button" and "input" for the click event?
My click event is not firing.
  
                  <button id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_btnSubmitOrder" class="btn">
                        <span></span>Submit Order</button> 


                $("[id$='_btnSubmitOrder']").click(function () {
                    if (validateNotes) {
                        return true;
                    }
                    else {

jQuery (Core) is a cross-browser JavaScript library that provides abstractions for common client-side tasks such as Document Object Model (DOM) traversal, DOM manipulation, event handling, animation and Ajax. jQuery also provides a platform to create plugins that extend jQuery's capabilities beyond those already provided by the library.
