Calling function from c# to JS File

Question

I am using an inline jquery in the c# code and it works. But when I try to call it through js file, it does not work.

C# code

tableCell.Attributes.Add("onclick", 
                         @" if($(""div[id*='Name'] input[id*='" +
                         checkboxID + @"']"").is(':checked')" );

Here, I get the value true. So Now I try to make a function in js file and call it.

tableCell.Attributes.Add("onclick",
                         "javascript:Foo(this,'" + checkBoxID + "');
                         return false;");

Js File :

function ToggleScorecardConfig(sender,checkboxID) {
    var a = checkboxID + "@";
    alert(a); //WORKS
    alert($(""div[id*='Name'] input[id*='" + checkBoxID +
              @"']"").is(':checked')); //ERROR : ')' Expected
}

I know I am doing some very small mistake, Can anyone please guide me.

You have double double quotes in the JS file code, should just be:

$("div[id*='Name'] input[id*='" + checkBoxID + "']")

The '@' is used to escape the double quotes in C#, that's why the in-line code works, you don't need that in JS

It says '@' Invalid. double double quotes work in inline query.

This gives me false, but I should get true, as in Inline query, I get true value.

What do you get when if you do alert($("div[id*='Name'] input[id*='" + checkBoxID + "']").length)

In the inline query, I get some length as 2,4,11 but when I try with JS File, I get 0 only.

You checked that checkBoxID has the right value? You can also debug the jQuery result and review the selector.
