Obtain Textbox Value w/out Form

I want to retrieve the value of the textbox 'TablePageSize' when I press the
'Go' button, like so:

Page Size <input name="TablePage Size" type="text" size="4" maxlength="4" />
&nbsp;<input name="Go" type="button" value="Go"
onclick="alert( document.TableP ageSize.value); "/>

But for various reasons I don't have a form here. How do I refer to the
'TablePageSize' object to get its value.

Regards,
Wayne C.

Give it an id and use document.getEle mentById, or use
document.getEle mentsByName.

Better yet, put it in a form and set up a server side fallback.

Oh - and if you plan on serving your document as text/html, then you should
insert a space before "/>".

I have a web page that displays multiple records for a company. The input text boxes that display my data are created dynamically. I'm creating these input boxes dynamically because the number of records for each company varies. The name of each input box increments by one for each record (Ex: A1, B1, C1 | A2, B2, C2, etc..) On my web page the user will enter in a number into the txtGrossPayroll(some number) input box. I have added...

I'm trying to assign a custom value to a textbox. Here's what I have. I've created a module and "default value" code for a textbox which generates a custom auto-number (yyyy-0000) when a New Record button is clicked. The code checks the table for the highest value and then assigns 1 and inserts the value. I have a second text box which needs the same type of custom auto-number which has to be generated from a second command button. ...

I just realized that the code I inherited is using all asp.net server controls (ie. webform controls) and when I try to update textboxes on the client side, I lose the new value of the textbox when submitting the form to update the database. The server doesn't have the client side value any more. It seems to me that as I begin to write the client side javacript code for form validation and client side editing capabilities in order to save...

Dear Group Sorry for bothering you again but I need expert advice on this. I have placed a HTML textbox on my aspx form and converted it to run as a server control. At some point in my code I assign a value to this textbox using Javascript with 'Form1.TextBox1.Value = "Hello"' But when I want to read the value of this Textbox later on using VB with 'MyVar = TextBox1.Text' it returns nothing.

Hello all, I have always been having this issue and wondering what the solution is. When I set the enableviewstate property to false for a textbox, the textbox always retains its value after a postback occurs. Why is this? I want the textbox to become empty after postback. How can I do it without setting textbox.text = "" and without doing Response.redirect to the same page. JK

I apologize for those of you who think I'm posting on the same topic.

I understand how to use ASP to retrieve a value from a form textbox. I don't understand how to use ASP to fill in a value in a form textbox. I'm guessing that perhaps Response.Write can be used? If so, I don't know the syntax to do this. Simplified code. A form with one control - a textbox. After the user submits the form, I can get the textbox value. How would I send a string back to this same textbox to overwrite the user-entered value? ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
