Text box

Could someone help me.

After hitting the submit page how do get the text box to clear? The
page is posting back to itself. What do I put on the code behind page?Just change the "EnableViewState" property of the Textbox to "False" in the
Properties Windows at design-time. No code necessary.

IMO it won't work as persisting the texbox content is not done using
viewstate. By design field values are posted to a server (this is how an
HTML form works). The viewstate is there for any other property you could
have to maintain between postbacks except the textbox content).

Your best bet is to explicitelty set the value to an empty string in the
submit button event handler...

Just add this to your code:
MyTextBox.text=""

Text Box and submit button not visible on the browser

Hi,
I am new to this group and to ASP.Net. I wrote a simple .aspx program in VS.Net environment. It has a label control, TextBox control and a button control. When the page is viewed on the browser, one enters their name or whatever and click the submit button, the resulting page shoul display "Hello and the text from the text box. I added required code in the button click event. The problem is when the page is loaded first time on the browser, I see only the label contol with the text that I entered before. Text Box and the Button controls are not visible. Any clues??
thanks.do you have runat=server for both?
Make sure that you have runat="server" in the html for the textbox and button...and make sure you have not set the visible property to false

MajorCats
I do have runat="server" and the Visible properties are set to False. Still it is not working. any other clues?...
After playing around with the code, I realized that none of my web controls are visible in the browser. If I change the following code
<asp:TextBox id="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
to
<input type="text" id="TextBox1"> </input>
then, I see the text box.
But it is not useful when I am trying to build a page using the web controls.
Why is it none of my web controls are visible?.
Anyone know what is triggering this kind of behavior?
help please...... :(
..."and the Visible properties are set to False."

I am assuming you meant that the visible property is NOT set to false...or this is your problem.

Post your html and code...

MajorCats
Here is the code... None of my web controls are visible when loaded in the browser. When I change them to a normal <input> tag, then it displays. It is not useful, when I am trying to develop a web application in the .Net environment. Text box property is set to Tru to begin with and then changed later in the code. see the button_click event handler code. Any help is appreciated.
thanks.

Your problem is the visible=false in your tag...

<asp:TextBox id="TextBox1" runat="server" Visible="False"></asp:TextBox
Change this to:

<asp:TextBox id="TextBox1" runat="server" Visible="True"></asp:TextBox
and it will show up.

Basically, your code shows that you are hiding your textbox and button, and if the button were visible and someone clicked it, you are hiding it yet again......

MajorCats
Thank you very much. I totally overlooked the HTML part and thought the problem was in the Code. I changed it, and now it works.
thanks.

Text box Display

I don't understand the Display setting for controls such as text boxes.
I have a text box a button next to it, and then a submit button below
everything so that when the 1st button is pressed, a calendar appears
underneath it.

Becasue the submit button is below all the user input stuff, I want to
make it so that the calendar and the submit buttons are given set
positions on the screen, so that whenever I press the 1st button, my
submit button doesn't get pushed down the screen to make way for the
calendar.

I would've thought Display="Static" would do this, but I get the same
result as using Display="Dynamic". Can anybody help me out with this?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!You need to use absolute display but make sure the parent elements are all
setup - positioning elements in pixel offsets is not a very good thing to
do. Static is meant for something else and IE does not even support it.

text box text wont change

i have a asp.net page that has some text boxes with some text in there..then i have a submit button..the problem is that when i try in code to get what the textboxes have in the .Text property i get what i've put when the page loaded and not what actually the user has written! anyone has experienced this? what am i doing wrong? :confused:

help!!!!!!!!!!!!!You just not checking for post back...like I said in the other thread, post your code (especially your load event code) and I will show you how to use it properly to ensure things like this don't happen.
load event
WebMessage web = Serializer.BinDeSerializer(Server.MapPath(@."Logs\" + Request.QueryString["File"]));
msgTxt.Text = web.Message;
titleTxt.Text = web.Title;
nickTxt.Text = web.Author;
post(edit)button
case "EDIT": {
Debug.WriteLine(titleTxt.Text);
string filename = Server.MapPath(@."Logs\" + Request.QueryString["File"]);
WebMessage oldMsg = Serializer.BinDeSerializer(filename);

if (File.Exists(filename)) {
File.Delete(filename);
}

WebMessage newMsg = new WebMessage(
titleTxt.Text,
msgTxt.Text,
nickTxt.Text,
DateTime.Now,
oldMsg.Comments,
Path.GetFileName(filename));

Serializer.BinSerialize(newMsg, filename);
Response.Redirect("Log.aspx?&Action=POST", true);
break;
where titleTxt,msgTxt,nickTxt are the TextBoxes which arent changing the text
In your page load event, check for Page.IsPostBack.

if (!Page.IsPostBack) {
// Perform your initialization (db calls, etc..)
}
still not working...i dont get what would help checkin if it is postback or not lol..because if it is postback and now is not working then checking for it wont help, if it isnt and isnt working by checking i will not do it work..so *** can i do?
Because we are working in a stateless environment. Everytime a postback occurs, the page_load event fires off before any of the control event(s) that caused the post back. So, if you reset the values in the load event, then in your event handler, you are still dealing with the initial default values.
Change to this:

if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
WebMessage web = Serializer.BinDeSerializer(Server.MapPath(@."Logs\" + Request.QueryString["File"]));
msgTxt.Text = web.Message;
titleTxt.Text = web.Title;
nickTxt.Text = web.Author;
}
hmm...even with hellswraith code it doesnt work..
Well, the code I posted is the exact same, so it wouldn't work (minus the three lines of code) :rolleyes:

Post your entire code-behind, it's something else..
hmm my page is getting a bit confusing, since its only my 2nd asp.net project and i wasnt expecting for somethings i had to implement..i will make a new architecture for the site and then i will try again and if it doesnt work post it here again..but i need to implement cookies..anyone could answer by other post about cookies plz? :D

tks by ur answers btw

text search in asp.net

its urgent i want a text search in asp.net with c#

if i enter asp in text box and submit the page it has to get the pages with text syed in that page.

Help will be appriciated

Hi,

I haven't tried this yet but it migh help you:

http://www.dotnetjunkies.com/Tutorial/195E323C-78F3-4884-A5AA-3A1081AC3B35.dcik

i want text search utility for the whole of my website

Hi, Sorry but iam unable to understand this question, you entered a text asp now want pages with syed in that page(which page you want), and with what text. that text should be in the name or inside the content of the page.

1)enter the word which you want to search in your website.

2)diplay the pages where this word occurs in your website pages.

Hi, i do not know if their is some inbuilt facility to do so.What i could have done, is this way,

The project where your webpages are present is a directory . So first find the no. and names of file in that directory and put the name inside a string array.

Now we have the names of all files we have to read.

Create a foreach loop and start reading the file .This will be outermost loop . In the inner loop start reading them and match the each string with your own string .If matches skip the inner loop then save the name of that file inside another string array.Its like we do linear Search,

In the end use javascript code to open your webpage with the names retrieved from the string Array in your code behind.

--------

Its true that giving suggestions is quite easy, but some times they help.

Hope this will help

Thanks BMW,

But i got this url fewdays back and its working .

but anyhow thanks for sending me the url.

syedwna:

1)enter the word which you want to search in your website.

2)diplay the pages where this word occurs in your website pages.

Hi,

Here is a demo for you :http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/SearchDotnet.asp

Hope this helps.

Textarea, form submit on return key

Hi,

Something is causing the form to be submitted whenever I hit the
return-key. Normally I wouldn't bother, but it also happens when I'm
typing in a textarea-control, which makes it impossible to fill in
multiple lines...

Where to look?

Thanks!Sjaakie schreef:

It might be helpfull to know that the textarea is a multiline
textbox-control.

Cheers
Sjaakie, i tried a small sample but I can't reproduce the behavior!, can you
post some code?

Jose,
I tried to cancel this posting, but apparently it was already replicated
to other servers.

It turned out it was just me being stupid. I was confident I had set the
property 'Multiline', but I didn't ... so it behaved as a regular textbox.

Thanks for your support anyway.

Textbox and its corresponding submit button.

I noticed that if I hit enter in the text box instead of clicking on the submit button that the page just refreshes and bttn_click event doesn't occur for the submittal.

After a search I found the following to work:

ClientScript.RegisterHiddenField(string hiddenFieldName, string hiddenFieldInitialValue)

From what I gather this allows the page to have a default button event occur whenever the enter key is pressed in a text box.

My question is how would you go about setting this up for more than one text box and submit button on a page that will do different things other than the default.

I found this:
this.userTxtBx.Attributes.Add("onkeypress", "setEnterKey('userBttn')");
but it does not work in my attempts.

Thanks in advance.After contemplating the problem further, I realize the problem is not so complex.
The simplest solution is html form code defaultbutton=""
Another way is to have a hidden textbox field in your form.
