Textchanged event fires on every post

I used the textchanged event of textbox and set the autopostback property to
true. The textchanged event should fire when the content of the textbox is
changed and user tab out of the textbox control. However, textchanged event
fires whenever there is a postback, even when I click a button that send
postback. Can anybody tell we what change I should make so that textchanged
event only fire when the content is changed?

Hi Samuel,

"The textchanged event should fire when the content of the textbox is
changed and user tab out of the textbox control."

That is not true. Not all of the web control cause a postback. TextBox is
one of them. Please take a look at this to understand the asp.net event model
better:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...EventModel.asp

If you want to cause a postback on every change on the textbox immediately,
you will have to use a javascript function to create a manual postback.
Hope that helps,

Ethem

Hi all, I have a combobox control, in wich I put an autocomplete code. This code is in the TextChanged event, but when this event fires, the Text property isn't updated yet. For example, if the Text property is "Foo" and I press the letter "d", the Text property when the TextChanged event runs is "Foo". Only after the TextChanged event be processed, the KeyDown, KeyUp and KeyPress events fires and update the Text property.

I'm trying to some dynamic searching to my windows Form so I added code in my TextBox.TextChanged so that, after every text change, a search is done to a datatable.

The problem is that there's so much data in the table that...

Hi, clearly I'm just not getting something here. I have an aspx form with ONE textbox and several label controls on it. I have the textbox set to AutoPostBack = True, but when I enter my text and hit ENTER, nothing fires. Oddly enough, this is similar to the button problem I've just posted as well. I use similar code for the textbox textchanged event, but it doesn't fire on that page either IF I remove the button (even though I don't...

Hi all, I've created an User control. It's an extension of a textbox wich has some extra properties so that validation becomes a lot faster. The control wordks great if autopostback is on.

I have an application that gets values from the registery and populates textboxes on a form. I have also created a sub using textchanged event. which prompts the user to save their changes. The problem is that when the form loads and the textboxes are filled it triggers the textchanged event. I want the boxes to fill with the stored data and the change event to fire only after the user has made a change. Thanks

Working on a web project (academic example) for a beginning VB class where there are four text boxes, each to hold four characters. I want focus to shift automatically to the next text box when the user has entered the 4th character in a given text box.
