Hi,

I want to copy values appearing on a control(eg. textBox,DropdownList) on press of TAB key to some file.
But can anyshare any idea how to do that?

imagine a Windows form where controls like (Text Box,DDownList) will come on Form depending upon the values it reads from a image.Here controls are automatically added to the form.
now when i just press on TAB key it will copy the values from the control and save it to some file.

Please awaiting for an Idea!

Thanks,
Sourabh

Is your question about web forms or windows forms? You have tagged your question with jquery, javascript etc, but you also talk about windows forms. If it's a web form, you can use the .change() event to achieve what you want.

use jquery and while adding dynamic control add common css class to them.

for that css class write "blur" function in jquery and that will give you value of the control.

with that value call server function using jquery ajax

XML

<input type="textbox" class="copyValue">
<select class="copyValue">
  <option>One</option>
  <option><two></two></option>
</select>

JavaScript

<script>
   $(document).ready(funciton(){
        bind();
   });
</script>


global.js
function bind()
{
    $('.copyValue').blur(function() {
         //readvalue
         //call jquery ajax function
    });
}</input>
