Hi,
I am trying to use couple of server controls in my master page and I need to identify the same at the client side(javascript).
But in ASP .NET2.0 the server controls are appended with "ctl00_ctl00_" to the control id.
for example if i set the contol id as
<asp:HiddenField ID="hidcontrol" runat="server" />
and try to get the control value using
js as
var controlvalue=document.getElementById("hidcontrol") .value;
IN ASP 2.0-Master pages ,the control id will be renamed to "ctl00_ctl00_hiddenevent"
<input name="ctl00$ctl00$hidcontrol" type="hidden" id="ctl00_ctl00_hidcontrol" >
In this case ,How will I access the control value dynamically at the client side.
Please help.I am not able to move forward as i need the value to be accessed from the client side for sure.
NB:Saw couple of discussion threads where its suggested to get the control id by the following way.;
var controlvalue=document.getElementById("<%=hidcontro l.ClientID%>").value;
But I am not able to get it.Am i missing something.PLease HELP
One more query;Is there anyway to force a master page to retain the name of the form as
programmed instead of changing it to aspnetForm?
Thanks in Advance!!!
