Re: Custom Controls & Javascript

The ID in the client will be dynamically generated and might be different than the exact ID you've assigned in your code. To determine what the ID will be in the client browser use the ClientID property on the control in the server. You'll have to incorporate that dynamically into your javascript when calling getElementById().

I have created a Custom Control and I need to populate 2 fields with
data that I am grabbing from a control on the parent form.  I need to
use Javascript to grab the data on the parent form & populate the data
in the custom control.  The code that I have below get's the data but
can't find the control on the custom control.  Any ideas or proper
direction would be appreciated.

sFName=document.Form1.fldFName.value;
var NameField = document.getElementById(fldQFName);
NameField.value = sFName;
Thanks!

Steve.
