OnTextChanged not Firing!
Hello,
I've got an aspx page with TextBox and DropDownList controls on it. The TextBox controls are populated by a javascript calendar control (Obout brand calendar control).
When I select a date in the calendar, the date appears in the TextBox, but the OnTextChanged event for the Textbox never fires. If I manually change the date in the TextBox, however, the OnTextChanged event DOES fire.
I've got AutoPostBack="True" set on both TextBoxes and both DropDownLists. Also, I have set autocomplete="off" in the master page's <form>. I have also placed an OnBlur call in the TextBox, but this event only fires when I manually change the date as well.
Any ideas?

gpizzuto- thank you for your reply. Any idea how one would accomplish that?
Don't know Obout control, but try to enable the AutoPostBack="True" also to that

I am using a standard ASP.NET TextBox (not Obout - I'm only using Obout DropDownLists). Also, AutoPostBack="True" is already set.

Can you try to write a javascript function for 'onchange' with similiar code as 'onblur' and see if it works ?
It would look something like this
It would look something like this
<asp:textbox id="someid" runat="server" autopostback="true" ontextchanged="" onchange="javascript:__doPostBack('<%= someid.ClientID %>', '');" />ASKER
masterpass - thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, OnChange results in the same problem. I created a javascript function (containing window.alert("in js!")) and placed it in OnChange and only get the javascript popup when I manually change the text in the textbox.
my bad! I have one more work around!
Try using the jquery .change() to handle the situation. An example is here : http://blog.darkthread.net/blogs/darkthreadtw/archive/2010/03/09/jquery1-4-fix-autocomplete-onchange-issue.aspx

masterpass - thanks for the link, but this using .change() didn't resolve the issue either (it didn't fire either).
