The control name is 'txtDischargeDate' and it is automatically created when
in edit mode. How can I reference it in Javascript?

Check out this article, i have explained about the similar problem in
datagrid. Problem is with the name of the control which you are passing to
javascript function. For solution check this article.

Dear Saravana,

The article helped me a lot, but I still cannot find the solution. I use the
following code:

Private Sub dliStayDetails_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataListItemEventArgs) Handles
dliStayDetails.ItemDataBound

If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item Or e.Item.ItemType =
ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
Dim imgCal As New System.Web.UI.WebControls.Image()
imgCal = CType(e.Item.FindControl("imgCal1"),
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Image)
imgCal.Attributes.Add("Onclick", "javascript:pickDate('" &
e.Item.FindControl("txtAdmDate").ClientID & "')")
End If

End Sub

and I get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" for the
line with the attribute.
Thanks,

Buran
