Dear Dnn Guru

How can I use Java Script in client side in module .ascx file to receive Session data which transferred from other page when I develop the module. I tried the normal Java codes that usually used in .aspx file but not successful. I also tried to use server side page_load to get Session Data first.(this is successful), and then assign the data to one Label then use Java Script to get the data by using document.getElementById("LabelID").value, or by using <%=this.Session["TransferedData"] %> to receive Session Data in JavaScript. These efforts are not successful. Please help me to solve the problem.

Thanks in advance

Jimmy

Dear Richard

The codes are as following:

I tried to use server side page_load to get Session Data first， and then assign the data to Label lblTesting. This is successful, The value is displayed on Lable.
The codebehind codes are as following:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string comingStr = Convert.ToString(Session["Transfer"]);
if (comingStr != null)
{
lblTesting.Text = comingStr;
}
else
{
lblTesting.Text = "Not Coming";
}
}

But when I tried to use client side javascript to get the Session Data by document.getElementById("lblTesting").value and then displaied on html input control or on Label control, Its' failed. The page codes are as following:




I also tried to let the client side received the Session data directly. The javascript codes are as following:


Its'failed again.

In an HTML page all ID's have to be unique. ASP.NET generates a client-side id that is derived from the name of the label control. That explains why document.getElementById("lblTesting").value does not work. The id lblTesting does not exist in the HTML.

To make this approach work you need to generate that fragment of the javascript and have the client side ID of the control plugged into it. Something like...

"var x = document.getElementById(" + lblTesting.ClientID + ").value...."

Similarly I would expect generated javascript from...

"var x = " + <%=this.Session["TransferedData"] %> + ";"

To work. Use your browser tools to see what actually ends up in the page and use that knowledge to re-adjust your code.
