ASP.NET 2.0 LoginView & TextBox...

[sidnijs]

I have script and this script have to get information from textbox which is in a LoginView!

<script language="vb" runat="server">
....
............. = TextBox1.Text
....

</script>
<html.... 
....
   <asp:LoginView ID="LoginView1" runat="server">
      <AnonymousTemplate>
         <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Width="305px"></asp:TextBox>
      </AnonymousTemplate>
   </asp:LoginView>

</html>

But there is an error whet I run my page...

"TextBox1 not declared" <--- error in script!

[size=8+]WHY?????[/size]

I have tried to write "LoginView1.TextBox1.Text", "LoginView1.AnonymousTemplate.TextBox1.Text" and others...

You will need to use the FindControl method of the LoginView control - something like

 ((TextBox)LoginView1.FindControl("TextBox1")).Text = "Test";

although you need to be aware that if the user is logged in this will return null.

=/ I still have a problem.

LoginView1.FindControl(textbox1).Text

The name 'textbox1' is not declared!

=/

i don't understand!!!!

p.S. Textbox is in ''AnonymousTemplate'' ---> and i'm not logged in...

 

[PlausiblyDamp]

        DirectCast(LoginView1.FindControl("TextBox1"), TextBox).Text = "Test"

 

[sidnijs]

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.


???

 

[PlausiblyDamp]

It will only work if the anonymous template is showing and if you have the control ID exactly right.

 

[sidnijs]

but all is correct... =/

 

[sidnijs]

ctype (loginview1.findcontrol("Textbox1"), textbox).text

^--- sometimes works!!!!



I hate MS programmers!!!

 

[PlausiblyDamp]

If ctype works, DirectCast should as well. You need to make sure that when you refer to a control the text is the same including the casing.
