Whats your database SQL Server ???????? You may have to change the value of any nulls in the table first Grady Booch: I told Google to their face...what you need is some serious adult supervision. (2007 Turing lecture) http://www.frankkerrigan.com/[^]

You can set the background of an area/field using an expression instead of a color value. Use something like this: =IIF(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2 = 1, "LightGrey", "White") JR

You can't. The javascript function doesn't exist until the page is loaded in the browser. If you want the function to run as soon as the page loads, you can add a call in the onload property in the body tag, or add a script tag to the page: Page.RegisterStartupScript("Description", "<script type=\"text/javascript\">theFunction();</script>"); --- b { font-weight: normal; }

That is what the javascript code does. --- b { font-weight: normal; }

points to be noted... 1) u have set the values in the page load event of one form and tryin to access the value from another class. it wont work. may be pass the values to the test class constructor. 2) when ur calling the function which returns its textbox value from another class it hasnt been set to a value... 3) its works in ur currnet form bcoz the text box gets the value from the page load event sathy

u cant use a non static member inside a static function.... and if u try to convert the textbox obj into a static one they've used a this pointer to tht so throwing a error... try this code.. public class WebForm1 : System.Web.UI.Page { protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox tb; protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button Button1; protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label l1; protected static string s; private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { getvalue(); l1.Text = WebForm1.gd(); } public string getvalue() { s = tb.Text; return s; } public static string gd() { return s; } } sathy

You need to submit the JavaScript string so that the server (aka C#) has access to it in the post-back. Try adding a TextBox and setting it using JavaScript. Then, when you submit the form, you should get the new value. Michael Flanakin Web Log

lol, OK ... Happy Coding :rose: << >>

Here is an article on passing values between forms[^] (Remembering that a Form is just another type of class) My: Blog | Photos "Man who stand on hill with mouth open will wait long time for roast duck to drop in." -- Confucius

Sorry, but I am not into much of ASP.NET. I think it has got something to do with Security permissions and sruff. Why donlt you post this in the ASP.NET forum? Bikash Rai

All the code didn't show up in the post. Check it now. --- b { font-weight: normal; }

Well, i asked that a short while back as well, you'll have to use a html button and in the onclick bit put: window.open("website url","one_word_id_type_thing","resizable=0,width=550,height=400") resizable=0 means you cant resize it 1 means that you can. Just thought, to open a page in a new window, and keep the web forms button, add: using System.Diagnostics; then in the button put: Process.Start("website url"); that should open it in a new window.
