Question

I am using asp.net C#
I am also using the jQuery UI Calendar control.
calendar control

It appears the calendar control wants to work with an input control with an ID of “datepicker”.

<input type="text" id="datepicker"  />

I want to use value of the input control in my code behind but seeing how it is not an asp.net control I am not sure how I can reference it in the code behind.

Does anyone know how to get the value of the input control in the code behind?

Answer 1

use

<input type="text" id="datepicker" name="datepicker" />

and in the code behind:

Request.Form["datepicker"]

In fact, Form property of Request is populated with form values.
