Text Box

[JimmyFo]

Hi, quick question: if I were looking to modify a textbox (ASP or standard HTML input) by JavaScript, how would I go about doing it? At a certain point in my script, I would like to be able to append data on a new line in this text box.

It can really be anything, a textbox, label, etc, it just needs to be accesable to the VB codebehind.

Thanks,
James

[i]element[/i].value += "\n append this text";

\n means new line. it won't have an affect in a text box. it will in a text area. it won't in a label.

for labels, use <br /> instead of \n.

Thanks for the reply - quick comment on this. I'm working with the JS

http://the-stickman.com/web-development/javascript/upload-multiple-files-with-a-single-file-element

here for multiple uploads.

What it's doing is using multiple "div"s from a parent to display selected files dynamically. Does the element refer to only one object, the parent div object? Since this value is still residing in the JS, how do I get the value passed to a hidden textbox/label, so that my VB codebehind can access it?

Thanks,
James
