Solution 2

Something like this:

JavaScript

function deleteConfirmPasswordText()
{
    if(document.getElementById("txtPassword").value == "") {
        document.getElementById("txtConfirmPassword").value = "";
    }
    return false;
}

XML

<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtConfirmPassword" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Submit" OnClientClick="return deleteConfirmPasswordText();" />

Note: return false is because the form shouldn't post if the password text box is empty. You must have these validations in place, both at client side and server side.

Hope this helps!

Can you check the code.....

Ankur^\m/ 21-Jan-11 1:48am

What do you mean by that? If you meant if the code I gave is valid, yes it is. I checked it.

Lyn123 21-Jan-11 1:54am

I mean my code in the question......

Ankur^\m/ 21-Jan-11 2:06am

Couple of things that need to be changed:
a) Add return false; inside all 'if' statements.
b) the first if-else would be only 'if'. Or make all of them only 'if' and it will work.

Since the passwords do not match, the first if-else statement is executed and never goes to the last if-else and thus confirm text box doesn't get cleared.

I hope that clears your doubt.

else if(document.getElementById("Password").value=="" && document.getElementById("Confirm").value!="")
{
document.getElementById("Confirm").value="";
}

or

else if(valpassword=="" && valconfirm!="")
{
document.getElementById("valconfirm").value="";
}
My this code is not working.......

See my above comment. Make everything 'if' and it will solve your problem.

You need to set the textbox text property to null or "".

I've got the kbd tag in my name. So i guess some setting on CP has changed.

Ankur^\m/ 21-Jan-11 6:23am

Oh, I see. I thought you did something. :doh:
And hey I didn't know about kbd tag. Thanks!
