OnTextChanged event not firing

58 New Member
Help!

I have an ASP textbox where the OnTextChanged event is not firing. Here's the call:

<asp:TextBox ID="ApproverCop y" runat="server" CssClass="noSho w" OnTextChanged=" StoreNewTrainin gs" AutoPostBack="T rue"></asp:TextBox></TD>

The event fires if I enter the value manually, but not when I do it programmaticall y in the code behind.

Please help.

So, when you make a change in the codebehind, just call the method that is the handler yourself:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. ApproverCopy_TextChanged(ApproverCopy, null);
  2.

That would be because the server code executes before the page even loads and the handler is javascript based (causes a postback to your server-side code)

Ah, I found I misstated something in my question. I'm not really populating the field from the codebehind, but rather from javascript. I basically have a modal popup window that grabs a value from the user and when they dismiss the popup, it puts the value into the textbox field. I then would like it to kick off my code (from the OnTextChanged event), which grabs that value.

Well the on textchanged in javascript doesn't fire unles you "lose focus" on the control.
Seems kinda dumb to me, but that's how I've seen it work before. You might able to call a focus() and then a blur() on the textbox to see if that triggers it?

Hi. I have created a web-based file manager. Now I'd like to watch a folder for changes, and when a change occurs I'd like to refresh my page. Okay. So I have created a FileSystemWatcher set on the folder I need to watch. It works fine. The problem occurs when I need to trigger an automatic Refresh. So I added two handlers - OnChanged and OnRename, in the same class as my filemanager.

I think I already know the answer to this but here goes. I've read the other postings but no solutions for this. If a user enters a textbox, there is no 'onenter', etc. to control firing off a sub, etc. We have OnTextChanged. But it doesn't fire until focus is placed somewhere else. The issue is that on my form if a user changes a textbox but goes to 'Save' the form, the 'Save' button gets the focus and fires event OnTextChanged but stops...

I've got a form that is supposed to validate data entry from a bar code scanner. The scanner is set up to add a carriage return at the end of the data in the barcode, which should fire the onTextChanged event to validate the information recieved; however, the Enter key does not fire this event as it should. Can anyone give me some help as to why the Enter key won't fire the onTextChanged event? Matt
