My code behind is VB.NET. I use ASP.NET UpdatePanel like the following. However, after the post-back, it locks TextBox controls , I cannot type anything, except when I move the mouse over and click on the TextBox.
why it locked all TextBox controls after the post-back?
Here's why I use UpdatePanel:
During the post-back, after inserting data into DB, set all TextBox text property to String.Empty After the form is submitted, the Panel pStudent should be refresh , not the entire page and the TextBox txtId should be in focus again.
here's the mark-up of the ASP.NET page: [URL]
I use a textbox for input unless one of the checkboxes is checked, then the textbox needs to have a value of 1 which I have working.What I need is a way to lock the textbox if the checkbox is check and allow data if it is unchecked.[code]
View 2 RepliesHeres my problem, My app outputs info into a textbox as a log and appends the new lines to the end of the textbox, is there a way i can scroll the textbox so it displays the end of the text? I had considered writing the line at the top and appending the rest of the data to it but the line is hard to do this way (it uses info from 2 seperate subs and would need a global or a new textbox) and ideally i would like the info at the end in chronological order. the textbox is refreshed at the end of each entry.

what I need to do is automatically (through a timer or similar method) look up a newly added record, and if it exists, have a number returned and populated to a specific textbox. I have the looking up the record and getting the field I want returned working fine, but I just cannot find any way to have it populate a textbox. Another small wrench in the works is that it's a web form. I think I'd be ok with a Windows form.The reason I need this is, the user will not be sure when this record has been added and it would work fine if they wanted to click a button until it is actually added to the table, retrieved and the number needed populates the textbox. However, the folks who gave me the spec prefer the user not to have to keep clicking a button for an undetermined amount of time. So, I've been trying to use a timer. I've tried everything I could think of to get it to populate the textbox. Even javascript didn't seem to work and neither did trying to a redirect back to itself. Everything is fine except for filling in the texbox.

View 3 RepliesIam trying to convert all my access database into Sql Server databases and also create vb .net application for them all. First problem I encountered was there doesn't seem to be anything like a continous form(I know there is a datagridview). So i thought i would create a flowlayoutpanel. Place lots of textboxes on it and fill each of textboxes with information form my dataset. now on to the problem. one of the textboxes is the item description field. This field can have one word or many words. I have been trying to get the textbox to auto expand in height to cover the text. Below is the code I have put together to try and get this to work correctly.
vb.net
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class Form1
Private Const EM_GETLINECOUNT As Integer = &HBA

What is the best approximation algorithm to implement full-text fuzzy search. For example we have a dropdownlist with the following data (from SQL datasource):
Company Policy
Product Catelog
Our Partners
Now I want to replace it with an autocomplete textbox, such that when the letter "p" is typed the list shows all three results. It should start matching the first letter of the first word or second word and so on. Also, it should highlight or make the matched letters bold in the suggestions dropdown.Is there a readymade control for ASP.NET (with JS or jQuery) to deliver all the aforementioned functionality? Otherwise if I have to implement it, is there a tutorial/blog which point me in the right direction?
