In my master page i've a textbox.
<asp:TextBox ID="SearchTextBox" runat="server" class="searchtxtbox" onfocus="HideSearchWaterMark();" Text="Search" onblur="ShowSearchWaterMark(this);" />
I added jquery references in code behind.
TextBox SearchTextBox = this.FindControl("SearchTextBox") as TextBox;
StringBuilder objStringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
objStringBuilder.Append("<script type=\"text/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\n");
objStringBuilder.AppendFormat("var searchTextBox = '{0}';\n", SearchTextBox.ClientID);
objStringBuilder.Append("</script>\n");
this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(GetType(), "RegisterVariables", objStringBuilder.ToString());
this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this.GetType(), "Global", this.ResolveClientUrl("~/Resources/Scripts/Search.js"));
this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this.GetType(), "Global", this.ResolveClientUrl("~/Resources/Scripts/jquery-1.4.2.js"));
this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this.GetType(), "Global", this.ResolveClientUrl("~/Resources/TagsScripts/jquery.autocomplete.js"));
in Search.js i've the following methods to access the text box of master page:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#" + searchTextBox).autocomplete("Handlers/GenericHandler.ashx?tgt=12", {
multiple: true,
multipleSeparator: ";",
mustMatch: false,
autoFill: true
});
});
function HideSearchWaterMark() {
var control = $("#" + searchTextBox);
if (control[0].className == "searchtxtbox ac_input")
control[0].value = "";
control[0].className = "searchtxtbox ac_input";
}
function ShowSearchWaterMark(tagsTextBox) {
if (searchTextBox.value.length == 0) {
searchTextBox.value = "Search";
searchTextBox.className = "searchtxtbox ac_input";
}
When i run my application i'm getting object reference not set error.
Please tell me where i need to change my code.
