to dynamically change it I suspect you will need to incorporate some javascript code. But I don't know how myself. Since this is really DHTML ask in that forum.

Hello, I am stuck with a problem trying to mimic the behavior of a Windows Forms Readonly textbox in HMTL/ASP.NET.

I am having a hard time with this one, and I thought it would be easy. I have a datagrid in which I have textboxs for users to enter data. One of the fields in the database behind the datagrid tells me if the textbox is readonly or not. I am having a hard time setting the readonly property of the textbox with a conditional if statement (IIF). Here is the coding; <asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Data Entry"> <ItemTemplate>

I have a textbox on a form that is populated from the database when the form loads. When I check textbox.Text when the user clicks my submit button, the value is always what it was when the form loaded, no matter of what the user changed the text to. Any suggestions? protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { DataSet ds = Customers.GetCustomer(Request); if (ds.Tables.Rows.Count == 0) return;

Hey guys... I have a form that asks for several dates. I tried using asp calendar controls to set values of the date textboxes which were readonly. I found this annoying since each time I advanced a month and/or selected any date, it posted back and refreshed the page. So, instead, I resorted to an old javascript function I use a lot. The javascript creates a pop up (html) window and sets the value of the textbox when the user picks a...

Please help. This is a real puzzler! Originally posted on microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms but no answer found! I have a read-only textBox which shows the results of a selection on another form. When the selection changes from the saved data, I wish to show it a different colour. As it is read-only the ForeColor property has no effect.
