Passing a parm to onClientClick

See code below. The asp code works. As does the VB.NET in the code behind.

What I want to do is in the asp code pass the PrimaryKey.Text as a parm, instead of where the 4 is. Syntax-wise, I cannot get this to work.

VB.NET CODE:

ShowButton1.Attributes.Add("onClick", "ShowRecord('" & PrimaryKey.Text & "');")

ASP.NET CODE

<asp:ImageButton runat="server" id="ShowButton1" causesvalidation="False" commandname="Redirect" cssclass="button_link" imageurl="../Images/icon_view.gif" tooltip="Show Funding Request"
onclientclick="return ShowRecord(4);">
</asp:ImageButton>

It should be,

ShowButton1.Attributes.Add("onclick", "javascript:return ShowRecord('"+PrimaryKey.Tect+"')");

I can get to it work in VB code. What I cant get to work is the aspx code. How do this change this, and replace the 4 with 'PrimaryKey.text' ?

<asp:ImageButton runat="server" id="ShowButton1" causesvalidation="False" commandname="Redirect" cssclass="button_link" imageurl="../Images/icon_view.gif" tooltip="Show Funding Request"
onclientclick="return ShowRecord(4);">
</asp:ImageButton>
