Get value of textbox placed in FormView

[Sergey]

Hi,

I am trying to implement add/remove items into Combobox functionality using a client-side API same as sample provided in /ComboBox/Examples/Programming/AddRemoveDisableItemsClientSide.
But my controls are placed in a FormView and it seems that I have problem to get value of a textbox within javascript function. The line from sample:

function

AddNewItem(){

...

var intextput = document.getElementById("TextBox1").value;

...

}

is not working. How can I get value of a textbox placed in a FormView control using javascript?

Hello Sergey,

I suggest that you obtain the textbox's value using this code:

var intextput = document.getElementById("FormView1_TextBox1").value;

where FormView1 is the ID of the formview and TextBox1 is the ID of the textbox.

I hope this helps.

All the best,

Yes it works! for me

if you want to get the value of a textbox you can get it by js code
first search the element by "getElementById" and to receive value of variable ".value"

so final code will become

var myNewVar = document.getElementById("FormView_TextBox").value; 

value of textbox will be saved in myNewVar

Thanks
