I'm trying to access a variable I have in the HTML from my Code-Behind either by adding it as a session variable or making it the text of a textbox.

Neither is working.

Dim ItemNo As String

ItemNo = Request.QueryString("itemno")

Response.Write(ItemNo)

Session.Add("ItemNo", ItemNo)

<asp:TextBox ID="ItemNo" runat="server" Text='<%# Request.QueryString("itemno") %>'></asp:TextBox>

The value of ItemNo is output to the screen. However, when I try to access Session.Item("ItemNo") from the code behind, I'm having trouble.

I've also tried using the text of a textbox approach as seen above. The textbox doesn't show the text.

What am I doing wrong?

Answer

The answer was to simply do this in the code-behind instead of the HTML

Dim ItemNo As String

ItemNo = Request.QueryString("itemno")

Sorry, I'm a doofus sometimes.

in .aspx page:

<asp:TextBox ID="ItemNo" runat="server" ></asp:TextBox>

in .aspx.vb file:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

ItemNo.Text = Request.QueryString("itemno")

Session("itemno") = Request.QueryString("itemno")

End Sub
