Probably the file is not in the path specified. '../../../' will move 3 step up to the directory in which the page is located and look for the js file in a folder named JS.

Also the language attribute is Deprecated.

See Scripts:

18.2.1 The SCRIPT element

language = cdata [CI]

Deprecated. This attribute specifies the scripting language of the contents of this element. Its value is an identifier for the language, but since these identifiers are not standard, this attribute has been deprecated in favor of type.

Edit

Try changing

<script src="../../../JS/Registration.js" language="javascript" type="text/javascript" />

to

<script src="../../../JS/Registration.js" language="javascript" type="text/javascript"></script>

ScriptManager control can also be used to reference javascript files  One catch is that the ScriptManager control needs to be place inside the form tag  I myself prefer ScriptManager control and generally place it just above the closing form tag    lt asp ScriptManager ID  sm  runat  server  gt       lt Scripts gt           lt asp ScriptReference Path    Scripts yourscript min js    gt       lt  Scripts gt   lt  asp ScriptManager gt

I assume that you are using MasterPage so within your master page you should have   lt head runat  server  gt       lt asp ContentPlaceHolder ID  head  runat  server  gt       lt  asp ContentPlaceHolder gt   lt  head gt    And within any of your pages based on that MasterPage add this   lt asp Content ID  Content1  ContentPlaceHolderID  head  runat  server  gt       lt script src  js yourscript js  type  text javascript  gt  lt  script gt   lt  asp Content gt

Use Fiddler to see what is happening  Then change the path accordingly  You will probably find you get a 404 error and the path is wrong
