Calling ClientID from aspx

Question

")" / ">

what doesn’t work, the error says: Parser error message: server tags cannot contain <% ...%> constructors.

Any attempts to solve this? Thanks;)

Answer 1

You are calling the JS event ( onchange ), not the server event, so just pass in this.id

 <input type="checkbox" id="chbSaveState" runat="server" tabindex="3" onchange="SaveState(this.id)" /> 

To be clear, this.id and <%=chbSaveState.ClientID%> will return the same value in this case. Since you are calling this on the chbSaveState event, you can simply use the easily accessible JS property here, rather than <%=chbSaveState.ClientID%> , which requires the server to return the identifier that the server generates for this control.

Answer 2

you can do it with jQuery like this:

 var control = '#<%= chbSAveState.ClientID%>'; $(control).change(function(){ SaveState($(this).id); }); 

Answer 3

I do not have much experience with server-side controls, but it is possible:

 <input type="checkbox" id="chbSaveState" runat="server" tabindex="3" onchange="SaveState(chbSaveState.ClientID)" />
