Textboxs

[KevoMee]

Hi, I've created my textbox and when the page loads I put a value into so it will show some text when the pages loads.

1. FirstNameBox.Text = UserRow.firstname;

Now if the text in that box is changed and the person clicks on the submit button then I want the data to be changed in the database so this is what I do:

2. AuctionSet.users.FindByusername(Context.User.Identity.Name)["firstname"] = FirstNameBox.Text;

Now, I've debugged this and the text in the box is the same as in step 1 even if I change the text and press submit!

Anyone got any ideas on this one?

Thanks,
kev.

Check if you are putting the data in place on your page load event. If you are each time the page loads you will get that data set up. On a lot of my pages I load my data from inside a

If (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
loadData();
}

type of thing. Because if your UserRow.firstname is not being changed then you will still get the same value as the initial if you are setting the textbox on the page load each time.
