Re: Textbox Tooltip altered by javascript is not seen by code to save it

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Thanks for the info, I was originally using the Hidden fields in that way
but because this is a Time *** Datalist and they want 16 Textboxes for
Input per row. I am getting slower Browser performance with each new row
added to the Datalist and with a Hidden Field for each of those to store a
Memo for each Textbox was Doubling my Control overload.

So I was trying to eliminate those as it did help performance when I did, is
there any way to do a Request to the Browser for the ToolTip(title)
Attribute or another way that is efficient. Right now I'm thinking a
JavaScript Array if I can't get to the altered ToopTip, but not sure how to
get the data in the Javascript Array back on the server?

Thanks

the browser does not postback the tooltip value. you will need the
javascript to copy it to a hidden field.

I have the following textbox setup with Text & ToolTip Bindings as
follows; I'm using Visual Studio 2008 VB:



<asp:TextBox ID="txtDay1" runat="server"

Text='<%# Eval("Day1") %>' Width="30px"

ToolTip='<%# Eval("M1") %>'></asp:TextBox>



I am changing the Text on the page by Typing it in, but the ToolTip is
being changed from another Textbox thru javascript as a memo to the first
TextBox, which is working on the page to change the ToolTip when moused
over.



Problem I am having is when I try to save the new ToolTip text in my VB
code it is still seeing the original Evaluation and not the new altered
ToolTip Text, this is in a Datalist Control



Here is the VB Code, the change to the Text of the TextBox is being
picked up by this code, just not the tooltip(Code Simplified).



Dim D As TextBox = Me.DataListTime.Items.Item(i).FindControl("txtDay1")



.Day1 = D.Text 'Sees Changes Okay

.M1 = D.ToolTip 'Only sees Original, not changes thru javascript



Thanks for any help
