Basically I am creating a simple function in javascript to check if a textbox value has changed from what it was originally and if so to warn the user the impact the change will have. If the user clicks yes, do nothing, if they click no then I want to set the value of the textbox back to the original value it should be for them.
EDIT
Okay it seems I was mistaken as to the root of the problem. It seems that the inpUsername which is a hidden input I have is blank from the beginning. How do I set it correctly in the asp portion of the code so it takes the value of another textbox on the same control?
I currently have:
<input type="hidden" id="inpUsername" runat="server" value=
%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"txtUsername")%> />
This returns the error: BC30456: 'DataItem' is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.Control'. However if I add additional quotes around the value it outputs "/> to the screen
The txtUsername declaration as requested is:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtUsername" runat="server" CssClass="Textbox" Style="width:100%"
onchange="checkForUsernameChange()"/>
var txtUsername = document.getElementById(" <%=txtUsername.ClientID%>").value;
There's some spaces before the ID. I'm pretty sure you wanted :
var txtUsername = document.getElementById("<%=txtUsername.ClientID%>").value;
Or maybe the spaces were intended, in which case the confirm should also include those spaces.

I'm trying to get the value of a textbox into a JavaScript variable. ultimately I'm trying to hide or show different webparts depending on the value in the textbox. I'm piecing the code together to test for input first. Below is the code for the textbox in question that I pulled from Firebug:
<input onfocus="return (TextBox.OnFocus(this, event));" onblur="return (TextBox.OnBlur(this, event));" oninput="return (TextBox.OnInput(this, event));" id="ctl00_m_g_ff1af521_db80_4f46_9a65_42671828173f_FormControl0_V1_I1_T82" scriptclass="TextBox" class="z_VYBB68eomwymAKXW_0 c5_VYBB68eomwymAKXW_0 ef_VYBB68eomwymAKXW_0" wrapped="true" direction="ltr" viewdatanode="83" formid="ctl00_m_g_ff1af521_db80_4f46_9a65_42671828173f_FormControl0" originalid="V1_I1_T82" tabindex="0" title="" value="Visible" style="position: relative;" type="text">
If I use the code below I get an "Undefined" error message(popup). As you can clearly see though, the value of the textbox = "Visible" as the code above tells us.
$(document).ready(function()
{
var HideWeb = $("#ctl00_m_g_ff1af521_db80_4f46_9a65_42671828173f_FormControl0_V1_I1_T82").val();
alert(HideWeb);
});
I've also tried the following with no success (popup returns empty).
var HideWeb = document.getElementById("#ctl00_m_g_ff1af521_db80_4f46_9a65_42671828173f_FormControl0_V1_I1_T82").value;
alert(HideWeb);
I've also tried using the other ID numbers in hopes that one of them would work in the JavaScript\Jquery code above. If someone could pick this apart and help me determine what the problem is I would appreciate it.Thank you.
This correspondes to a question I asked here.......
https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/113969/showing-hiding-webparts-conditionally
you may try..
$("input:text[originalid='V1_I1_T82']").val()
This will return you the value..
try removing "#"
var HideWeb = $("ctl00_m_g_ff1af521_db80_4f46_9a65_42671828173f_FormControl0_V1_I1_T82").val();
I am having the following Radio butttons in my aspx file.
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoOption1" runat="server" GroupName="grpAnswers"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoOption2" runat="server" GroupName="grpAnswers"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoOption3" runat="server" GroupName="grpAnswers"/>
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoOption4" runat="server" GroupName="grpAnswers"/>
I want to set the text from javascript on a button's click.
Javascript code is as follows.
document.getElementById("rdoOption1").innerHTML = "sometext";
I've also tried with Text,nodevalue instead of innerHTML, no use. Plz help.
You need to use ClientID in javascript instead of using the server side id. As the server side id is changed when html is generated by asp.net. You also have : instead of semi colon at the end of javascript statement. Use value instead of innerHTML as that is not for input html elements.
document.getElementById("<%= rdoOption1.ClientID %>").value = "sometext";
If you have .Net Framework 4 and above then you can use Control.ClientIDMode="static" to keep the server id on the client side.
Edit The second thing you have to take care is to make sure the html element you are trying to access is already added to DOM. You can do this by putting the script after the html elements you are trying to access. The best place would be just before the ending body tag </body>
<script type="text/javascript>
document.getElementById("rdoOption1").innerHTML = "sometext";
</script>
</body>
Atlast I've found the solution for this.
Actually the asp:RadioButton is rendering in the browser as follows,
<input name="grpAnswers" id="rdoOption1" type="radio" value="rdoOption1"/>
<label for="rdoOption1">
Note: It'll generate label only if you specify some value for Text property of the asp:RadioButton.
So ,I have changed my code as follows,
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoOption1" runat="server" GroupName="grpAnswers" Text=" "/>
My Javascript code to set Text for that asp:RadioButton is as follows,
document.getElementById("rdoOption1").nextSibling.innerHTML = "someText";
This one worked for me.Thanks to all those who spent their valuable time in answering my question. :)
ASP.Net controls are server side controls and not client side controls like HTML.
Their actual ID's get generated during the run time not before hand.
So, your syntax should be some thing like:
document.getElementById("<%= rdoOption1.ClientID %>").innerHTML = "sometext";
Check out this post: how-to-change-the-text-of-a-radio-button.
I don't think you can change the text using innerText of a radio button.
I'm running into a bit of an issue. My JavaScript function returns "undefined" when using master pages. However, when I'm not using master pages, it works fine. Here is my code:
HTML:
<input id="txtPhoneNumberAreaCode" class="TextBox" runat="server" type="text" onkeyup="GoToNextTextBox(this.id, 3, 'cphMainArea_txtPhoneNumberFirstThree')" />
The Javascript:
function GoToNextTextBox(CurrentTextBox, MaxCharLength, NextTextBox) {
alert(CurrentTextBox.value);//pops up "undefined"
if (CurrentTextBox.value.length == MaxCharLength) {
NextTextBox.focus();
NextTextBox.style.backgroundColor = '#FFFFFF';
}
Again, this works fine when not using master pages. So I'm completely confused.
This is because, you are doing it wrong.
In GoToNextTextBox(), you are expecting a DOM element, but you are passing only its id.
DO this:
<input id="txtPhoneNumberAreaCode" class="TextBox" runat="server" type="text"
onkeyup="GoToNextTextBox(this, 3, 'cphMainArea_txtPhoneNumberFirstThree')" />
When using master pages and user controls the rendered ID of your controls change, but there is a way to stop it.
Let's say you have a Textbox
<asp:Textbox id="txtName" runat="server"></asp:Textbox>
on a standard asp page, it's id will be as you expect, txtName
Now you add a master page, called Site.Master. In your rendered html, the controls name is now different.
cntl1_Site_txtName
I might have the syntax of the new name a bit off, but you can view source and find it for yourself.
There is a way to control that though. There is a property on your page, ClientIDMode.
If i remember correctly it has 3 or 4 options. Auto ID is default I believe.
If you set it to static for that page, then you will no longer get the verbose control IDs, they will be as you expect.
This can be a downfall when using things like Repeaters though. You will not have easy access to specific fields if they do not have the verbose ID
I am using asp.net.
I have taken one Hidden value and assigning value to that hidden variable in Java-script.
aspx: <input type="hidden" runat="server" id="hdnProductionIds" value="0" name="hdnProductionIds" />
JS:
document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_hdnProductionIds").value = "123";
I want to use that hidden value in server side coding(vb.net). But while do-post back, hidden variable value becomes Zero (default value)
Can any one please suggest me.
Thanks, Jagadi.
You need to use the request form collection
Dim prodIDs as String= Request.Form("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_hdnProductionIds")
How can I write this so the text shows in the text field (search bar) during the page load?
<input type="text" id="addressInput" value="<%=addressStr%>" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Search a location here';" onfocus="if(this.value=='Search a location here')this.value='';" />
At the moment the text only shows when you click in the textfield.
#detonate: You could just add some of the same logic to the ASP value so it'll show Search a location here if addressStr is blank:
<input type="text" id="addressInput" value="<% If addressStr = "" Then Response.Write "Search a location here" End If %>" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Search a location here';" onfocus="if(this.value=='Search a location here')this.value='';" />
it looks like you're trying to setup a watermark for a textbox, is that correct?
I'm going to refer you to a basic example of textbox watermarking that should be able to give you an example and give everyone a bit of a common codebase for discussion, since you didn't include a lot of code in your post: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/WatermarkTextBox.aspx
In it, I'll reference one of his codeblocks, that is similar to the one you posted:
<td>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtUserId" runat="server"
onfocus="Focus(this.id,'User ID')"
onblur="Blur(this.id,'User ID')"
Width="126px" CssClass="WaterMarkedTextBox">User ID</asp:TextBox>
</td>
While I realize he used ASP.NET instead of ASP, I wanted to draw attention to the fact that he put <textbox>text</textbox> so that you could see part of the answer to the question you directly asked above.
EDIT: Let me try this again: You would have something like this:
<textbox attributes="" methods="" >
<%=addressStr%>
</textbox>
Hopefully tho, the whole example given on that page will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
