Some weird stuff is happening, I am converting an application that used to use javascript to open another web page in a tiny window for data input to use a ModalPopupExtende
For some reason it doesn't seem to happen if the textbox is set to ReadOnly.
I'm thinking there could be a workaround by displaying an editable textbox to the user, catching the keystrokes to it, and updating a readonly textbox that is hidden from the user.
Still a bit messy, but I can't roll back to May's release because there's another bug in that release with the ComboBox that I need to avoid!
UPDATE:
As a bit of background, I have a user control (ascx) inside my modal popup because I need to reuse it. The ascx has to handle the user's input itself (the containing page doesn't know what's going on inside the control) so when the user clicks a button I do a callback and process the data. If a successful result is returned to the client callback function then I simulate a click of what the containing page thinks is the "OK" button which is actually invisible to the user.
I've changed my code to add a hidden, readonly textbox and copy the text from the original textbox into the new one every time the text changes.

then when passing values back in the callback instead of getting the value of txtName, I use txtNameRO.
I don't think this will help if you're doing a postback, but you could add a callback before the postback like I have. Hopefully this will help someone anyway!
