set focus issue in asp.net project..

[jackparsana]

hi

please help me to do that..

i have one form in asp.net.
In that, i have one dropdownlist box control

and near that one linkbutton "Add",
one hidden textbox is there.

when i click on Add button dropdown will hide and show textbox in their place.

i want to setfocus on that textbox without refreshing page or reloading page.

i have problem with refreshing contain after click on "Add".

so please help me to avoid this reloading or refreshing.

thanks in advance.

server side controls are meant to set off the post-back event (which is the refresh).. if you need a client side operation (i.e. to hide/show an object), then use standard html button with javascript inbuilt as an onclick event

[NETProgrammer]

Yeah javascript is your way. Turn off the AutoPostback I.E. AutoPostback=False
and write down a small snipet of JavaScript code and call it in the program.

use javascript for showhide dropdown and textbox...Using javascript you can change it without refreshing page.
document.getElementById("<%=txtShipping.ClientID%>").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("<%=dropdownShipping.ClientID%>").style.display = "";
