can't figure out this simple task

  1. Default can't figure out this simple task

    I'm using VS to create a form. I want a user to be able to input in to a
    field either the html code (<a href="http:\\www.mysite.com" Click here!</a>)
    or use some built in function where when the form is submitted and displayed
    back to me it displays the label as a hyperlink rather than the full web
    address.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  2. Default RE: can't figure out this simple task

    Is this a web app or windows app? Is it public or private?

    Reason I ask is that what you need to do is have the server-side code render
    the HTML that the user entered into a text box on postback. That could be
    exceedingly dangerous if the client enters various forms of script.

    Anyhow. With a web app, you can capture the posted client text in a variable
    and use Response.Write to write it back to the document stream on postback.
    That's the simplist way. There are others, including client-side JavaScript.

    This, to me, appears to be client side wiring of an event for a web page
    using javascript.

    1. Type something in a text box
    2. Click the button
    3. The text in the text box is then written in the Div tag.

    The moving pieces are:

    1. onclick="return myButton_OnClick();" This bit tell the web page what to
    do when the button is clicked. Kinda like a delegate pointer in .Net
    2. myButton_OnClick() this function is the routine that places the text
    from the textbox in the Div Tag
    3. getElementById says find an html tag that has it's ID attribute set to a
    certain value
