ItemTemplate postback question

[Chris]

I am having trouble accessing the value typed into the textbox on click of a submit button. the control is found however the text property is always empty. Please assist.

Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click

For Each item As RadListBoxItem In lbAssignedComponents.Items
   Dim tbxPageComponentName As TextBox = item.FindControl("tbxPageComponentName")
Next

End Sub

<telerik:RadAjaxPanel runat="server" ID="RadAjaxPanel1">
    <telerik:RadListBox runat="server" ID="lbAvailableComponents" Height="200px" Width="342px" TransferMode="Copy" AllowTransfer="true" AllowTransferDuplicates="true" TransferToID="lbAssignedComponents" AutoPostBackOnTransfer="true">
        <ItemTemplate>
            Component: <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "Text")%><br />
        </ItemTemplate>
    </telerik:RadListBox>
    <telerik:RadListBox runat="server" ID="lbAssignedComponents" Height="200px" Width="342px" AllowReorder="true" AllowDelete="true" AllowTransfer="false">
        <ItemTemplate>
            Component: <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "Text")%><br />
            Unique Name: <asp:TextBox ID="tbxPageComponentName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
        </ItemTemplate>
    </telerik:RadListBox>
</telerik:RadAjaxPanel>

Any thoughts?

I am still waiting on assistance. Is my question not clear enough?

I have the same issue as you. I read on another post that to persist the textbox state, you have to add the listboxitem on the server side during runtime. I modified my code, and was able to accomplish this.
