Dot Net Code Snippets

Cross page posting is submitting the form to a different page. This is usually required when you are creating a multi page form to collect information from the user on each page. When moving from the source to the target page, the values of controls in the source page can be accessed in the target page.

<:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text="Welcome to .NET"></asp:TextBox>

<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" PostBackUrl="~/Default.aspx" Text="TargetButton" />

 <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" ></asp:Label>

  if (Page.PreviousPage != null)
        {
            TextBox btn = (TextBox)(Page.PreviousPage.FindControl("TextBox1"));
            Label1.Text = btn.Text;
        }
