Client side action to cause postback

[Vidar Petursson]

Hi

As soon as anything is added to the textbox set radio checked and submit?

myBox.Attributes.Add("onkeypress","if(this.value != '')
{this.form.myRadio.checked=true; this.form.submit()}");

Note if radiobtn list then you have to use index
this.form.myRadio[INDEX].checked = true;

Is checkbox not a better choice than radio

Hi Vidar.

Your code works, but as soon as the form is submited the value of the
textbox is lost. Do you have any idea on why?

Thanks,

Antonio Maciel.

why not just set the AutoPostback=True on the radio button?
