hi gents

bit of an odd one here...Im creating a heirarchy tree which on click can run javascript. This tree is in a web user control. Basically I want to pull back the id of the item they clicked...

so my question is.

can I use javascript to set a property of the control to the id?

if so how? if not, am I being stupid and there is a better way?

thanks for the help

You can use server controls (or HTML controls with runat="server") to get client-side generated information back to the server. I have many client rich controls that perform actions on the client side and populate hidden form fields to send information back to the server. That what I have found to best solve this problem.

hi Peter

That sounds like it could work, so essentially id use javascript to change a hidden field the hidden field event fires and set the property? is that the best way to do it? can I then read the property using javascript or similar?

Im testing now but could you post a couple of pieces of code maybe?

thanks again...

Did you get this issue resolved?
