  How to access dropdown which is on master page?

  Jan 22, 2013 01:33 PM|LINK

  Hi,

  On my page I would like to access a drop down which is on my master page.

  Here is the markup on master;

  <select name="ctl00$ddlLanguage" onchange="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack(\'ctl00$ddlLanguage\',\'\')', 0)" id="ctl00_ddlLanguage">
  <option selected="selected" value="tr-TR">Turkish</option>
  <option value="en-US">English</option>

  And my js on page:

  var drpCulture = "<%= ddlLanguages.ClientID %>";
  $("#" + drpCulture).change(function () {
  var selectedCulture = this.value;
  jQuery.preferCulture(selectedCulture);
  });

  How can I access?

  Best Regards.

  Try below code

  var drpCulture = "<%=Page.Master.FindControl("ddlLanguages").ClientID %>";
  $("#" + drpCulture).change(function () {
  var selectedCulture = this.value;
  jQuery.preferCulture(selectedCulture);
  });
