.NET Forum / ASP.NET / General / July 2007Retrieving form data by name
This will likely be the dumbest question of the day, but: Me.Request.Form.Item(3) 'works Me.Request.Form.Item("txtName") 'doesn't work Intellisense shows the full name of the key is: ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$txtName Why is the key not: txtName ? Master: <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server"> </asp:ContentPlaceHolder> </div> </form> Page: <asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server"> <table style="width: 500px; height: 200px"> <tr> <td style="width: auto;"> Email address:</td> <td style="width: 192px;"> <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" MaxLength="50" Width="264px"></asp:TextBox></td> You could read your value as txtName.Text or Me.Request.Form.Item(txtName.ClientID) > This will likely be the dumbest question of the day, but: > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" > MaxLength="50" Width="264px"></asp:TextBox></td> Thanks! Or just use txtName.Text if viewstate is enabled. > You could read your value as > txtName.Text [quoted text clipped - 30 lines] >> <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" >> MaxLength="50" Width="264px"></asp:TextBox></td> Howdy Aidy, Why if viewstate is enabled? It works even if ViewState is disabled, because it's equivalent to Request.Form[txt.UniqueID]. TextBox uses viewstate only to raise OnTextChanged event. Regards -- Milosz > Or just use > [quoted text clipped - 36 lines] > >> <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" > >> MaxLength="50" Width="264px"></asp:TextBox></td> I have to admit as I was typing I doubted that you needed the viewstate enabled. As you said, it is needed for comparisons for raising events and seld-populating but no much else > Howdy Aidy, > [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] >> >> <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" >> >> MaxLength="50" Width="264px"></asp:TextBox></td> Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
