  Hi Ratheesh,

  Thanks for a quick reply.

  Well, I did exactly the way you have suggested. That is,  $('#<%=txtCardHolder.ClientID %>').val('');
  

  But it gives "Object expected" browser error.
  

  Thanks & Regards,

  Hi,

  Make sure that you are including the JQuery file in th page .

  Put the code inside jQuery(document).ready(function($)

  {

  --- Put code here---

  }

   

  Thanks

   Hi

  use the following construct to cclear the value of textbox :- $('#<id of the textbox>').attr('value', ''); 

   Note : text of textbox is actually displayed as value attribute in the markup so you need to use the attr() function and set the value property to empty.

  Like this

  <script src="../Js/jquery-1.2.6.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

   Hi,

  As said above, if you are missing reference to jQuery file, you will get that error. If your controls are placed in nested controls(like in server side panels), you will face client side reference issues. This is the best way to eliminate such issues: http://encosia.com/2009/06/09/11-keystrokes-that-made-my-jquery-selector-run-10x-faster/

  Hope it helps [:)]
