Hi, I have a javascript inside a partial view that sits in a parent view.  There is a submit button on the partial view that when clicked I would like to fire an alert.  

<script type="text/javascript">

 $(function () {

        var selectedName = $("#selectaname");

        $("#sendMail").click(function () {

            if (selectedName.val() == "someValue") {

                alert("You need to select the correct name");

                return false;

            }

        });

    });

  </script>

How can I show my jquery alert from within a child view?   Any help would be greatly appreciated!
