hi,

i have written the following javascript code. however i am writing my web application using visual web developer 2008 express edition, and i am finding it hard to incorporate it into my asp.net page. can i use javascript in asp.net page? does anybody have any suggestions as to how i can do this. the point of my code is to have a series of text appear on the web page in a sequence on after the other. please can someone help me, any suggestions will be appreciated.

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function timedText() {
var t1=setTimeout("document.getElementById('displayDiv ').innerHTML+='2 seconds!<br>'",2000);
var t2=setTimeout("document.getElementById('displayDiv ').innerHTML+='4 seconds!<br>'",4000);
var t3=setTimeout("document.getElementById('displayDiv ').innerHTML+='6 seconds!'",6000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Display timed text!" onClick="timedText()">
<div id="displayDiv">
</div>
<p>Click on the button above. It will tell you when two, four, and six seconds have passed.</p>
</body>
</html>

try onclick and not onClick...
then, there's an error in your javascript: setTimeout takes a function on the first argument, not a string... so just define a method
function _2seconds() {
document.getElementById('displayDiv ').innerHTML+='2 seconds!<br>';
}

and now, use the following line:
var t1=setTimeout(_2seconds, 2000);

I think that's much better.

And, of course, do the same for 4 and 6 seconds...

If you use a JavaScript framework, like prototype, you can bind data on methods you give as argument...
example:
var t1=setTimeout(myMethod.bind(2), 2000);
