Retrieve Value from form object

[LindaH]

I'm trying to pass a value for further processing using a form element, lblHiddenControl. This is a .NET server control, so there is no "name" attribute, just an "id." When I use the following code, I get the error message, "Object doesn't support this property or method."

_{if (window.document.getElementById("lblHiddenControl&quot) {
alert (document.frmProfile.getElementById("lblHiddenControl&quot.value);
}}

When I do a View Source, this is the HTML code I see for this object: _{<span id=&quot;lblHiddenControl&quot;>txtLogin</span>}

How can I get the vlaue of this control?

I figured this one out. For future reference:

To retrieve a value from an <asp:label> control:
document.getElementById(&quot;lblHiddenControl&quot.innerText

To retrieve a value from an <asp:textbox> control:
document.getElementById(&quot;txtHiddenControl&quot.value

And to use that value:
_{if (window.document.getElementById(&quot;txtHiddenControl&quot) {
document.getElementById(document.getElementById(&quot;txtHiddenControl&quot.value).scrollIntoView(true);
document.getElementById(document.getElementById(&quot;txtHiddenControl&quot.value).focus();
}}
