In my code behind files I have this:

public void test()
    {
        MTConnection con = MTConnection.CreateConnection(new Credential(new Context("ClearQuest - Boise", "Version 2.0", Micron.Application.Context.Environments.Production), "DSSPROD", Credential.DataSourceTypes.MSSQL, Credential.DataSourceProviders.Odbc));

        string sqltest = " select T1.dbid,T12.systemname AS 'ParentSystem',T1.systemname,T1.systemstate,T1.features,T3.name,T4.stakeholder,"+
                         " T4.fldcolumn_1,T1.systemwebpage,T1.description from ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( CQ_ADMIN.micronsystem T1 INNER JOIN"+

                         " = T7.dbid ) LEFT OUTER JOIN CQ_ADMIN.parent_child_links T12mm ON T1.dbid = T12mm.child_dbid  and 16778862 ="+

                         " CQ_ADMIN.parent_child_links where parent_fielddef_id = 16778767 and child_dbid in (select child_dbid from"+

                         " ASC,T1.systemname ASC";

        System.Data.DataSet ds = con.ExecuteDataset(CommandType.Text, sqltest);

        foreach (DataRow drCQ in ds.Tables[0].Rows)
        {

           string parent_system = drCQ["ParentSystem"].ToString();

           string support_system = drCQ["systemname"].ToString();
           //Response.Write(drCQ["systemname"] + " <B><I>Its parent is</I></B> " + drCQ["ParentSystem"] + "<BR />");
        }
    }

I am wondering if it were possible to pull the the results into JavaScript so that I can make an array out of the results.  If so how would you do that?

Thanks,

just out of curiosity, why do you want to put the results into java script to make an array when you can just make a c# array?

I want to create dynamically generated drop down menus without using a post back, and the only way that I could find to do it was to use javascript.

well say you wanted to pass that to your javascript when the user clicks a button, you can try something like this  

string myString = "this isnt the same as your text but hopefully you will get the idea";

myButton.Attributes["onClick"] = "stringWork(myString);";

//the stringWork is the java function to call when you click the button
//the syntax might not be right for adding myString as the parameter
//you might have to do something like "stringWork(\"" + myString + "\");";

then in java something like this 
function stringWork(myString)
{
    //Now you can use java functions to break up your string how ever you want
}
 

All that the above seems to do is refresh my page.  I set into the javascript an alet to display the string but the alert does not fire.

 You may have to add the attribute for "onclick" to the button control since it is not a server-side onclick event but a client side event.

Button1.Attributes.add("onclick","javascriptfunction(parameters)")

You may want to consider using AJAX. It fully supports dynamically generating dropdown lists without posting back the entire page.

Dotnetjunkie, could you give an example of how to do this using AJAX? 

I have not coded ajax at all.  I was trying to stick to JavaScript since I know it but if AJAX supports it I can try.
