i used javascript code.
function returnString() { debugger; var currentTime = new Date() var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1 var day = currentTime.getDate() var year = currentTime.getFullYear() var hour=currentTime.getHours() var mint=currentTime.getMinutes() if(mint<9) { mint="0"+mint } if(month<9) { month="0"+month } if(hour > 11){ var a= ("PM") } else { a=("AM") } document.getElementById("hdnResultValue").value = (day + "-" + month + "-" + year + "-" + hour + "-" + mint+ " "+a ); }
and in then at submit button i called returnstring() function
onclientclick and in page load i get hidenfield value it gives positive result.
But, i wrote this code in a test page that page is without masterpage, when i used this code in a page which is using master page, hiddenfield is not returning any value. i dont understand why this problm is occuring, may b due to masterpage.......... can u sugest any thing?
