Gooday. I have a login control, with an integrated user textbox and login button. I did this little test to see how it works, and surprisingly, after doing this:
protected void LoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TextBox userTextBox = (TextBox)Login1.FindControl("UserName");
userTextBox.Text = "You pressed the button";
}
the userTextBox doesn't change to "You pressed the button". Why? Thanks. Anna
EDIT: Sure, here is the markup (most of it is generated automatically by the system when adding the Login control); you will notice a button LoginButton integrated in the Login:
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="head" runat="server">
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="searchPanel" runat="server" DefaultButton="login1$LoginButton">
<asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server"
FailureText="Logarea a esuat. Reincercati!" LoginButtonText="Logati-va!"
PasswordLabelText="Parola:"
PasswordRequiredErrorMessage="Trebuie sa introduceti parola."
RememberMeText="Tine-ma minte!" TitleText="Logare"
UserNameLabelText="Nume de utilizator:"
UserNameRequiredErrorMessage="Trebuie sa introduceti numele de utilizator.">
<LayoutTemplate>
<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0"
style="border-collapse:collapse;">
<tr>
<td>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="2">
Logare</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">
<asp:Label ID="UserNameLabel" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="UserName">Nume
de utilizator:</asp:Label>
</td>
.........
<tr>
<td align="right" colspan="2">
<asp:Button ID="LoginButton" runat="server" CommandName="Login"
Text="Logati-va!" ValidationGroup="Login1" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</LayoutTemplate>
</asp:Login>
</asp:Panel>
</asp:Content>
The code-behind goes liek this:
namespace Cinemax
{
public partial class Login : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//userTextBox.Focus(); // this sets the focus on the username textbox when the page loads
this.Title = CinemaxConfiguration.SiteName + ": Login";
}
protected void LoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TextBox userTextBox = (TextBox)Login1.FindControl("UserName");
TextBox userPassword = (TextBox)Login1.FindControl("Password");
//Button loginBtn = (Button)Login1.FindControl("LoginButton");
userTextBox.Text = "You pressed me";
if (User1.ConnAttempt(userTextBox.Text, userPassword.Text) == 1)
{
Session["User"] = userTextBox.Text;
Response.Redirect("Catalog.aspx");
}
else
{
}
}
}
}
