How to get the text contents (box value) of AutoCompleteBox?

[Yan Moura]

Hi, I need to retrieve the text contents of AutoCompleteBox in Javascript (client side).

I tried this but it just alerts me nothing (blank result):

<script>

function CheckOE() {
            alert(document.getElementById('RadAutoCompleteBox1').value);
        }

</script>

<telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox RenderMode="Lightweight" runat="server" ID="RadAutoCompleteBox1" ClientID="RadAutoCompleteBox1" 
            autopostback="true"
            DataSourceID="blah" DataTextField="blah" DataValueField="blah" InputType="blah" Width="100%"
            AllowCustomEntry = "false"
            DropDownWidth="150px"
            onfocusout="CheckOE()"
            >

Any idea?

Thanks!

Hello, Yan,

I would like to note that this forum is related to the Telerik UI for WinForms suite. According to the provided information, it seems that you don't use AutoCompleteBox from the WinForms suite. Feel free to post your question on the relevant forum according to the product that you use: https://www.telerik.com/forums  

Thank you for your understanding.
