Solution 2

You can write the

JavaScript

$(document).ready(function($){});

function in the master page or if you want to do it only in some specific page
then you can write it in different .js page and include it in that specific page only.

Thanks

If you want to use jQuery to be invoked on any server side element, you need to retrieve the ClientID of that. ClientID is the client referential id which is used in the id selector '#'

So for this case, use

JavaScript

$('#' + '<%form1.ClientID%>')

. This will need to be done when the control is in a place where its Id can be dynamically generated, like within a parent control (grid etc).
