This is how:

or, with jQuery:
http://api.jquery.com/click/[^].

Here:

HTML

<input type="button" id="ClickToRunJS" onclick="CallJS();" />

JavaScript

function CallJS()
{
   alert("OnClick on a HTML button was triggered!!!");
}

Sandeep, could you explain this "önclick" instead of "onclick"? I can see it only on CodeProject, but often.

Looks like, It's the CP's HTML PRE tag converter I guess. Just check what I have posted using 'Improve Solution' link.

I typed the whole answer by hand with normal english keyboard, yet after I noticed what was posted after seeing your comment that there are dots on top of 'o' of onclick.
