TextBox.TextChanged event not firing!

[Guest]

Hi guys

I'm trying to get ASP.NET to do something when someone starts typing in my
textbox, but it doesn't want to fire the codebehind!

I've got AutoPostBack set to to True on my textbox, and the following wireup
in my code-behind...

this.txtMyTextBox.TextChanged += new System.EventHandler(this.TextChange);

TextChange function looks something like...

private void TextChange
{
Response.Write("test!");
}

But when I type in the text box nothing happens! What have I missed?!

Cheers


Dan

Try set your AutoPostBack to true.

You do realise however, this will cause the page to post back and reload.
Not a very nice user experience.

Unless you loading some other data on the page, i would suggest you use
javascript for this

My AutoPostBack is set to True, it still doesn't work.

This is an intranet application, so I wanted to see what the speed was like
- might be okay, might not

Any other suggestions?
