$find() does not find checkbox?

[Eric]

I am trying to use code found in the "HowToModalDialog" sample application but I use Text boxes and check boxes.

Everything seems fine with the Text boxes but the javascript function find$() does not seem to find my checkboxes despite using the ClientId.
Is there any particular reason for this?
Does $find not support checkboxes?

Hi Eric,

The $find method is a built-in Ajax method which is used to reference AJAX client objects. I suggest to use either the document.getElementById or the $get method to reference the desired HTML elements.

Cool, did the trick.

I am struggling a bit to find documentation about the Ajax built-in functions...
If I look for $find in the Visual Studio doc, it returns nothing. Do you know where would be the best place for that type of documentation?

Many Thanks

Hello Eric,

In my opinion the best sites where you can find AJAX documentation are the official ones as follows:

http://www.asp.net/ajax/documentation/live/
http://www.asp.net/AJAX/Documentation/Live/tutorials/ASPNETAJAXAndJavaScriptTutorials.aspx

I also suggest to use the MSDN for a reference in case of future problems.
