Textbox, hidden, no value

Hi,

having some troubles with a BOUND textbox.
The BOUND (text property) textbox is hidden on the form.
Just before I update the database I stopped the code in debug and when I
use me.C_ID.text it gives back the value "". When I make the control
visible it suddenly does have a value.

Can't a hidden textbox have a value then???

Maurice,
That does not hold good. Hidden textbox can have values. It
would be easier to point out the bug if you could post the code which
is causing the problem. Besides, you can use HtmlInputHidden which is
specifically introduced to serve the purpose.

HTH,
Chris.

Hi
TextBox which is invisible would not be rendered to the client. And after a post back since it is recreated again it would not contain value before the Databinding

Probably you are using smilar code to hide your textbox
....
txtb.Visible=fa lse
....
insted you may set the style -DISPLAY attribute to make it hiddedn at the client
style="DISPLAY: none"
....
hopefuly this would resolve your issue

This works pretty well, and it's easy, but it's not the ultimate solution. The kludgey part is it uses a hidden field to incrementally capture the keystrokes in the visible field (because executing code from KeyPress in the visible field doesn't work - for some reason Access doesn't see the letters until Exit or AfterUpdate is executed - maybe Refresh too). So you have to make sure the data in the hidden field matches what's in the visible...

Hello All I am working on ASP.NET 1.1 Custom Pager that allows a User to Enter a Number in a TextBox and go to the page selected. Since the OnClick Event does not work in ASP.NET 1.1 for a TextBox I want to use a hidden button to fire when the Onclick Event is fired for the TextBox.
