Hi all,
I have implemented template.master page in default.aspx. There is one situation where in I have to access asp.net controls (dropdown boxes) in Javascript. For which I have used
var MeetingList = document.getElementById("ddlMeeting_Type_Name");
which does not seem to work at all... :(
experts!! is there any way to overcome this problem?
My guessing is since the default.aspx has no document of its own, document.getElementById is not supported...

Hi there,
Take a look at the resulting HTML in the browser. You'll find that .NET has renamed your client ID to something ctrl0_ContentPlaceHolder_ddlMeeting_Type_Name. You'll need to use that ID to reference the control.

It's better to use
document.getElementById("<%= ddlMeeting_Type_Name.ClientID %>");
