Attributes.Add Onclick Event in C# code behind

dom-events, javascript

Solution

First off, make sure that when the page has been generated that the ID is still "tbxProdAC" if this is a .Net control, the ID would have been changed. In this case you can use a class.

Try the following, - This uses JQuery - you will need to include that

txtbxHowMany.Attributes.Add("onclick", "$('#tbxProdAC').val('');");

Add the following to the Head Section of your page.

 <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>

And you can get the JQuery.Js file from here: http://docs.jquery.com/Downloading_jQuery#Download_jQuery

Problem

I have two textboxes `tbxProdAc` and `txtbxHowMany`. I would like to write a bit of code in the code behind so that when I enter text in one, any text that may have been in the other is removed. How would one go about achieving this and in which event should I place it? I have tried to use: ``` txtbxHowMany.Attributes.Add("onclick", "document.getElementById('tbxProdAC').innerText='';"); ``` in the page load event but without success; should this be in the `pre_init`? As you can probably tell, complete novice at work here.
