How to get text box value in JavaScript

Question

I am trying to use JavaScript to get the value from an HTML text box but value is not coming after white space

For example:

Answer 1

Set the id attribute of the input to txtJob. Your browser is acting quirky when you call getElementById.

Answer 2

If you are using ASP.NET, the server-side code tags in these examples below will provide the exact control ID, even if you are using Master pages.

Javascript:

document.getElementById("<%=MyControlName.ClientID%>").value;

JQuery:

$("#<%= MyControlName.ClientID %>").val();

Answer 3

If you are using any user control and want to get any text box values then you can use the below code:

var result = document.getElementById('LE_OtherCostsDetails_txtHomeOwnerInsurance').value;

Here, LE_OtherCostsDetails, is the name of the user control and txtHomeOwnerInsurance is the id of the text box.
