Disable textbox in ASP.NET

Posted Date: 15 Nov 2005 Posted By:: Nithya Member Level: Silver Member Rank: 0 Points: 2 Responses: 2

When my page is loaded I want my textbox to be disabled and then to be enabled when we press a button. I tried textbox1.enabled=false in PageLoad and then set textbox properties(Enabled=false). But it's of no use. What to do? How to disable the textbox? I want the coding for asp.net.

Hai,
Just add the javascrit in the <HEAD> tag


<script>
function disableText()
{
	document.getElementById("TextBox1").disabled=true;
}
function enableText()
{
document.getElementById("TextBox1").disabled=false;
return false;
}
</script>

In the page load call the function like
<body MS_POSITIONING="GridLayout" onload="return disableText();">
This will call the javascript function to disable the text box. Where TextBox1 is the textbox.
In the page load event of the page give the following code
Button1.Attributes.Add("onClick", "return enableText();")
When you test the application, while loading the textbox will be disable and when you click the button, the textbox will be enabled.
