There's more involved in the value of course, but HiddenField is an asp:HiddenField control with runat=server set. I have in my javascript:
var id = $("#<%= HiddenField.ClientID %>").val();
The code in the javascript is set to be run only after the postback has occured (a different client click event) for the purpose of passing the hidden field value via QueryString to another URL (since i can't do a response redirect on postbacks and the client wants it in a different page anyway).
I am working on an ASP.NET application (well supposed to be deploying it about 3 days ago) and my hidden fields are loosing value when the form gets posted back..
I am using them to store information i write using javascript and on my own machine this works fine but as soon as i deploy it on our server everything else works except these values are lost..
I am using the .NET AJAX control toolkit on the same page and have noticed my calander datepicker also looses the data..
I have checked using firebug and the data is definitely getting post to the server but is getting lost somewhere!
Now this is working fine but , lets say i have 10 textboxes, if i change the value one the first textbox to be the same as the second textbox , it means it is a duplicate, now the problem here is that the value of the hidden field does not get updated immidiately , you have to click twice to get the real value.
I have a hiddenfield, which I want to save the scroll position of asp.panel scrollbar during postback, and when during postback this value is called back to set the scroll position.
Using javascript I can grab the value from the scrollbar, and assign it to the hidden field, but when I post the page back the value has gone.
Here is my code snippet: <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> function SetScroll(val) { [code].....Am I missing something? How do I keep the value during post back?
you save data into a dynamic hidden field ,which is created dynamically during the handling of some postback event.what is the best way to retrieve it from this field upon a postback, (besides searching the request for the key of this hidden field and then retrieving the corresponding value as in the code below)?
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { bool found = false; for (int i=0; i<this.Request.Form.Keys.Count; i++)
I have a ascx page where I am using a hidden field to store the value of a the drop down box as it is generated using a google address finder. My problem is that when I try to store the value directly in the hidden field :
hfDdlVerifyID.Value = ddlVerifySS.SelectedValue;
in the event of a button click, the value is stored but on postback is lost again. Whereas, if i try to use Scriptmanager to do it, nothing is stored.
I have a custom user control which contains a asp hiddenfield object. The value of this hidden field is being set using javascript and I have verified that the value is being set properly. When a postback occurs the new value is not being saved and I cannot access it in my code.
I believe the problem is because the user control is not saved in viewstate and therefore the hidden field value is not saved accross postback. How can I make the hidden field save its value? I tried accessing it from the early page cycles and still no luck.
I have a custom control that has a hidden field. Upon postback I want to obtain the value stored in it, but it's always an empty string.I am performing client-side manipulation of the hidden field values and have verified in firebug that the fields are correct before issue a post back,Here is the setup:
public class DualListPanel : SWebControl, INamingContainer
I inherited some JavaScript that I was told to integrate into our ASP.NET site. I thought this would be straightforward but it's turning out to be a bit of a challenge.
The goal is to get the value from this HTML control into ASP.NET, however this control itself is being dynamically generated by another chunk of javascript, so I can't just change this to an asp.net control. My solution was to add the onchange="updateQuestion();" method, this JS will take these SELECT tags and place the values into an ASP.NET control:
function updateSecQ() { var sQuestion = document.getElementById('<%=sQuestion.ClientID%>'); sQuestion.Value = ""; var questions = document.getElementsByName('Question'); for (question in questions) { if (questions[question].value != null) sQuestion.Value += questions[question].value + ","; } alert(sQuestion.Value); }
As you can see, that's looking to update an ASP.NET control:
I must be doing something wrong, but this makes sense to me. I have a Listbox loaded with tons of items from a datasource. A user clicks one of these items it grabs the selectedindex (an integer) and stores it in a HiddenField (works fine).
Now when the page does a complete a refresh (after postback) I want the ListBox to go back to that selectedindex that is in the HiddenField. Problem is, it seems that after postback the HiddenField is empty? Then I thought about storing the value in an Integer variable in code, but that is simply coming up as a zero at all times.
Question 1: What is the best/simplest way to do this?
Question 2: How?
I am currently grabbing it on selectedindex change
I am calling a Java-script function, in that i am passing the value of hidden field, that hidden field i want to use at server-side, but the value of hidden field is null.
Client Side function
function getDetails() { document.forms[0].HdnNode.value=tree_selected_id; //HTML Hidden Field. str="Cmp_12"; str_array=str.split("_"); var str_array1=str_array[0]; var str_array2=str_array[1]; document.getElementById("<%=HiddenNodeId.ClientId %>").value=str_array1; document.getElementById("<%=HiddenTreeId.ClientId %>").value=str_array2; }
Server Side Function
Public Sub InsertNodes(ByVal NodeId As String) Dim objErrorObj As New ErrorObj Dim ParentID As String ParentID = HiddenNodeParent.Value NodeId = HiddenNodeId.Value Dim NodeIDTree As String NodeIDTree = HiddenTreeId.Value End Sub
I have a user control that i have registered to an aspx page. Now from the aspx page, i am trying to access one of the registered usercontrol's hiddenfield value in my aspx page using javacript using the below code:
I looked into the page's trace, and i could see 'control1$hdnField'. Then why i am not getting its value in my aspx page. I have also confirmed that the hidden field by this name exists in the user control and also has a default value set.
have a tree view control build dynamically. i want to change color of the selected node from client side. write the script given below. and its work fine.
the thing is that I have a form with a textbox and a button and a hidden field, now what i want to do is to write something in the textbox ,pass it to the hidden field and then access that thing written in the hidden field in the controller . how can i do that?
how am I be able to assign a value to my hidden field control? I have this web service that returns member's ID and name (e.g. 0001-John dela Vega). In order for me to search for a member, I'm using an autocomplete extender, now, if in case that I found the member I'd like to assign its member id to a hidden field. I ask this because I'd like to change the way my web service return data so instead of displaying the member's id and name at the same, I'll just show its member name.
I have a form in MVC3 that includes a check box to copy data if it is the same as a previous form. If the checkbox is checked, it populates the text box with the content from the hidden field. Here's a sample to illustrate what I'm doing:
[Code]....
When the box is checked, it calls FillInfo(), which uses DHTML to fill the TextBox called "ThisInfo" with the value of the hidden field "DefaultInfo."
Here's the problem: if the form fails validation (e.g. "ThisInfo" is a required field and is left blank), the hidden "DefaultInfo" box is getting cleared out -- which I DON'T want it to do. As a result, when the checkbox is clicked, it is copying empty data into the "ThisInfo" field.
i have some programming aspect how can i check whether hidden field is empty or not i mean i want to check that ListTwiHiddenField.items.cout==0 or empty how can i check this
