Hi all,

I'm trying to access a control on the clientside which is defined in my module as:

<input type="hidden" runat="server" id="txtVenueId" />

When DNN renders this, it is outputted as:

 <input name="dnn$ctr389$AddEvent$txtVenueId" type="hidden" id="dnn_ctr389_AddEvent_txtVenueId" />

I'm pretty sure I should use the ClientAPI, otherwise I will need to write a find control function.  However, I'm struggling to find the information and the function that I need to call to use to the ClientAPI.  Can anyone guide me in the right direction.

Much appreciated,

Olly

You shoudl be able to use something like this:

document.getElementById('<%# txtVenueId.ClientId %>')... txtVenueId.ClientId should get you dnn_ctr389_AddEvent_txtVenueId at the run time.

Thanks very much for the answer.

After trying this out, I tweaked it slightly to get it to work:

<%= txtVenue.ClientID %>

Thanks again

This will also do...

str s = "document.getElementById('" + txtVenueId.ClientID + "')";

then ofcourse you have to register the script using the

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(Page), "OnLoad", s, true)

Thanks.
