value in field at run time

kumarop · April 10th, 2005, 10:14 AM

Dear all,
What is the best way to put value in one field in a form on run time, So that user can see some value already written in that field the moment page is loaded.
Let say I want to display current system date in filed called fromdate in the same form for example I can take time () from asp code, but how to put this into form's field in same page.

Regards

suppose ur datevalue=date() or time whtever
then you have two ways

<body onload="LoadFunction()">
<form name="myform"><input type=text name="fromdate"></form>
</body>
<script>
function LoadFunction()
{
document.myform.fromdate.value='<%=datevalue%>'
}
</script>

or

<input type=text name="fromdate" value="<%=datevalue%>">

Hope this will help you

Cheers :)
