Access html control value from code-behind

Question

Hi all...

 

I have HTML Controls as -

 

<div class="cont-input fl"><input name="" type="text" value="Name" onBlur="if(this.value=='') this.value='Name';" onFocus="if(this.value=='Name') this.value='';" id="txtName" runat="server" ></div>

 

Issue - When I type a name say "Mahesh Sharma" , then I want to access the value "Mahesh Sharma" in code-behind (aspx.cs file).

 

When I type - txtName.Value - I get "Name" as Value.

 

How to access the user-entered value from backend ?

Answer 1

If I get it correctly you want to add a button to the form, from code and not with the designer.

It's not that hard. Just add an eventhandler for the load event of your form. Instantiate a button, set some properties of that button and add it to the control collection of the form.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //instantiate new Button
    Button btnNew = new Button();

    //edit some properties.. size, location, text
    btnNew.Text = "Hello world";
    btnNew.Size = new Size(100, 20);
    btnNew.Location = new Point(50, 70);

    //add an event handler for the click event
    btnNew.Click += btnNewClick;

    //add the button to the controls
    this.Controls.Add(btnNew);
}

private void btnNewClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //method for the click event.
    MessageBox.Show("You clicked the button");
}
