aspx thread: TextBox all uppercase


Message #1 by "Mel C Solomon" <melsolomon@e...> on Thu, 14 Jun 2001 11:47:03 -0800
to all,

Need some tips on how to make a TextBox convert all key entries into

uppercase.

The scheme is:

1. the textfield have the cursor

2. when i enter "r", the textfield now has "R"

3. when i enter "d", the textfield now has "RD"

4. when i enter "2", the textfield now has "RD2"

5. when i enter "Y", the textfield now has "RD2Y"

6. when i reached 4 characters in my textfield, i could no longer enter more

characters.

7. when i insert "f" between "D" and "2", the textfield now has "RDF2".



thanks and regards,



mel :-)

You can set the maxlenght property to 4.



<asp:TextBox maxlength=4 ...... />



Use Javascript to convert key entries into uppercase.

Create a Javascript function and set the onKeyPress property of the textbox

to the functionname.

ex:



<script language="Javascript">

function myFunction(myControl)

{

	// myControl is the TextBox object.

	//..... Your code here.

	// To convert lowercase characters to uppercase,

	// you use the function String.toUpperCase

}

</script>



<asp:TextBox onKeyPress="myFunction(this);" ..../>



I hope you know how to create javascript to handle the rest.



Happy coding..

Hi,



        In .Net application we can convert the entries in the text box  to

uppercase using  one of the methods in the keypresseventargs argument. Its

available in the keychar property. To restrict the user to type 4 characters

use the length property of the textbox. Hope this will help u.



Regards



SATHISH C.G.
