Pass parameter to Popup window

I have 2 webform in vb.NET application.
On Webform1, I have one text box1 and one button.
on Webform2, I have one text box .
I need transfer the value of textbox 1 in webform1 to textbox2 in
webform2. and popup webform2 when user click on the button on webform1.
I have code in webform1:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Button1.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open('WebForm2.aspx?a=" +
TextBox1.Text.ToString + "',null,'height=250, width=250,status= no,
resizable= no, scrollbars=no, toolbar=no,location=no,menubar=no ');")
End Sub
and following code in webform2:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
TextBox1.Text = Request("a").ToString
End Sub
I could not get the result unless I click on the button1 twice. i know
what happen in here but have no solution. I will be appreciated if you
could help here.
Thanks in advanced,
DiHi ,
You can achieve this by injecting a javascript in the Button1 click
event on the server side . Write an function to inject an javascript in the
webform1 button1 click.
Don't do anything with Attributes of button1 as it won't achieve result u
requires as the 1st page the textbox1 value would be blank.
private void openWindowInjectScript(){
string myScript;
myScript = "<scr" + "ipt>window.open('WebForm2.aspx?a=" + txtIdfield.Value
+ "',null,'height=250, width=250,status= no,resizable= no, scrollbars=no,
toolbar=no,location=no,menubar=no'); </scr" + "ipt>";
this.Page.RegisterStartupScript("JavaScript",myScript);
}
In the webform1.aspx button1_Click event
private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
openWindowInjectScript();
}
Basically openwindowInjectScript register a script at pageload and which
will make to open an window with current values.
This is the way out for it and it should work

Thank you for your reply. But actually I tried and this did not work
for some reason, any idea?
Try this onClick event of your button
Response.Write("<SCRIPT>");
Response.Write("window.open('page,aspx?value=" + myval +
" ',null,'height=200,width=900,status=yes,
toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no')
;
");
Response.Write("</SCRIPT>");
I think this will do the trick, tell me if not

pass values of combo box to asp code

I have a combo box and i want to pass its values to open a connection.

To extract values from combo box my freind suggessted me to use Request.querystring("comboname")

but this could be used only when i pass values to the url.

is there any other way to extract the value from combo box

You are right Request.QueryString would be used when you want to get a value from URL. To use your combobox value use DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Text (to get a text) orDropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value (to get value).

Cheers
Ritesh

In addition to the above approach, if you are posting the form then the value of drop down list can be accessed by Request.form("NameofControl"), convert the values as per your requirement.

Pass variable to another page

I have a calendar form that sends the inputted date back to a text box .
Using the GET method, I would like to pass the date as a variable to another
asp page. How do I do this?
Thanks.Hi Marti,
Not sure if I understand your question. But in ASP.Net 2.0 you have to
ability to do cross-page positing. So you can just do a postback with
value of that textbox to your other page.

Thanks - That's exactly what I was looking for. I was using a different
method to pass values. I have tried using the postback method but to no
avail. Below is the source page I am working with, can you tell me what I
should have on my target page?

Passing in drpdown dataset

i am adding a row in dataset , in which i want to add
(space chracter for html) and then want to bind
dataset to asp.net dropdown list box. But & automatically
converted to & chracter.
Is there any way by which can be retained as it is
when dropdown throws the html part.
THanksVikram:
you need to HtmlDecode
Do something like this:
public static string DecodedSpaces(int numberOfSpaces)
{
string spaces = "";
for (int i = 0; i <= numberOfSpaces; ++i)
{
spaces += " ";
}
return HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(spaces);

Passing a value from server side to client side

Im having a bit of a problem here, what I want to do is a user types
in data in a text box then I need to pass that data to the client side.
The problem Im having is I can't seem to get the value from the text
box be it a regular asp.net text box or even when I assign a value in a
hidden textbox I still can't seem to get the value. I thought using:
document.getElementbyID("Client_ID").innerText would get the value but
its not.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
ThanksWhere is the textbox? Grid/DataList/Repeater? User control? Content page?

Kimberly,

The first thing to check is whether or not you have the correct client id.
ViewSource on the page and double check what client id your control is being
rendered with.

You should use the textbox ClientID property. You need to pass it from
server to client. If you do it in a hidden input control, it may look like:

<input type="hidden" id="clientId" runat="server"/>
...
var clientId=document.getElementById("clientId").value;
...
myText=document.getElementById(clientId).value

Passing a variable in the onLoad event.

I have a data grid with multiple rows. Each row has a drop down box. I need
it to select the correct item for each row. What I am trying to figure out,
is can I pass a value to the onLoad event for the dropdownlist?

OnLoad="loadDefault(Container.DataItem("dropValue"))"Are you trying to put a selected index?
