OnKeyPress = "reload page"

G

Guest

Hi

I've got the following in my aspx

<asp:textbox id="findwhat" OnKeyPress="javascript:suggest()"></asp:textbox>

and the suggest function

function suggest()
{
getElementById[btnfind'].click();
}

btnfind is an asp:imagebutton control, with a handler in the codebehind. So
in theory, typing in the box performs whatever action pressing that button
does. Except it doesnt. It reloads the page, completely.

Any idea whats going on!?

Cheers

Tried 3 different implementations of AJAX and none of them work for me!
Anyway, fixed it now cheers.

Problem now is how to put the cursor back into the textbox after refresh -
without selecting the text. Any thoughts?

Dan,

btnfind is a server button and as such it causes a postback. Consider using
Ajax.
