Hi,

I have this statement in ASP.NET

txtDirName1First.Attributes.Add(“onclick”, “if(this.value == ‘first’) {this.value = ”; this.color=’#FFF;’}”)

txtDirName1First is an ASP.NET textbox I want to change the color of its font when its clicked.

The first part of my javascript works fine and the textbox clears, however the color doesn’t change.

Thanks

@ZeroKilledMar 23.2009 — i'm not familiar with asp.net, but what i can see is that the code set an event, and of course, the code is javascript. so, this line is wrong because there is no [b]color[/b] property. notice the addition of [b]style[/b] object:
<i>
</i>this.[b]style[/b].color='#FFF';

Okay I changed it to this, but the second statement still doesn't seem to work.

if(this.value == 'first') {this.value = ''; this.style.color='#000;'}

Thanks

@ZeroKilledMar 23.2009 — notice that my original code is different from yours:<i>
</i>//my code;
this.style.color='#000'[b];[/b]
//your code;
this.style.color='#000[b];[/b]'


i did not included the semicolon inside the string [b]'#FFF'[/b].
