Adding onClick event dynamically using jQuery

You can use the click event and call your function or move your logic into the handler:

$("#bfCaptchaEntry").click(function(){ myFunction(); });

You can use the click event and set your function as the handler:

$("#bfCaptchaEntry").click(myFunction);

.click()

Bind an event handler to the "click" JavaScript event, or trigger that event on an element.

You can use the on event bound to "click" and call your function or move your logic into the handler:

$("#bfCaptchaEntry").on("click", function(){ myFunction(); });

You can use the on event bound to "click" and set your function as the handler:

$("#bfCaptchaEntry").on("click", myFunction);

.on()

Attach an event handler function for one or more events to the selected elements.

try this approach if you know your object client name ( it is not important that it is Button or TextBox )

$('#ButtonName').removeAttr('onclick');
$('#ButtonName').attr('onClick', 'FunctionName(this);');

try this ones if you want add onClick event to a server object with JQuery

$('#' + '<%= ButtonName.ClientID %>').removeAttr('onclick');
$('#' + '<%= ButtonName.ClientID %>').attr('onClick', 'FunctionName(this);');

Try below approach,

$('#bfCaptchaEntry').on('click', myfunction);

or in case jQuery is not an absolute necessaity then try below,

document.getElementById('bfCaptchaEntry').onclick = myfunction;

However the above method has few drawbacks as it set onclick as a property rather than being registered as handler...
