If I have a bunch of input fields (textboxes, checkboxes and textarea) within a contentplaceholder, how do i loop through all the controls within this contentplaceholder, or the whole page ?

If im using master pages with contentplaceholders, how do i get a reference to the controls within the form ?  The following code doesnt work

 

foreach (Control c in this.Controls)
{
    if (c is TextBox)
    {
       Response.write(((TextBox)c).text);
    }
}

 

Have a look at:

ASP.NET 2.0 Masterpages and FindControl

hth,

public static void ClearFormRecursive(Control Root) { foreach (Control c in Root.Controls) { if (Root is ContentPlaceHolder) { if (c is TextBox) { Response.write(((TextBox)c).text); } } else { ClearFormRecursive(c); } if (Root == null) { return; } } }
