Run this page ...

    
            <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > 
        
            <head runat="server">

            </head> 
        
            <body> 
        
                <form id="form1" runat="server"> 
        
                <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server"> 
        
                </telerik:RadScriptManager> 
        
                <div> 
        
                  <telerik:RadTextBox ID="RadTextBox1" runat="server" EmptyMessage="Drag text on to me"> 
        
                  </telerik:RadTextBox><asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label> 
        
                  <br /> 
        
                  <telerik:RadTextBox ID="RadTextBox2" runat="server" TextMode="Password" EmptyMessage="Enter Password"> 
        
                  </telerik:RadTextBox><asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label> 
        
                  <br /> 
        
                  <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" onclick="Button1_Click" /> 
        
                </div> 
        
                </form> 
        
            </body> 
        
            </html>

    
                    protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) 
        
                    { 
        
                        Label1.Text = RadTextBox1.Text; 
        
                        Label2.Text = RadTextBox2.Text; 
        
                    }

First of all, you will see that the password box appears to have a value, although clicking on the button will show that it doesn't.

Drag some text on to the 1st textbox. I dragged the url for this page out of the Location bar of FF on to the textbox on my page. Pressing the button, you would expect to see "http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/new-thread.aspx?forumId=243". What I actually get is "Drag text on to mehttp://www.telerik.com/community/forums/new-thread.aspx?forumId=243 ".

I'm fairly sure you can't do anything about the first of these 2 issues. I suspect the 2nd is a bug you could fix.

Hello Stuart,

>> First of all, you will see that the password box appears to have a value, although clicking on the button will show that it doesn't.

The "value" that you are seeing is actually the EmptyMessage. Since it is not a real value, it is not returned as such on the server. I am afraid we don't support EmptyMessage with password RadTextBoxes.

>> What I actually get is "Drag text on to me....................".

Indeed, it is not expected for the empty message to be preserved and transformed into a part of the textbox value when you drag text into the textbox. We will fix this. Thank you for the report.
