hi jon,
here is what i understand your question to be:
user enters some text, "hello" in the textbox and clicks save.
you update the database with "Preamble-" + "hello" for a record.
the page is reloaded and "hello" is still in the textbox, but you want
"Preamble-Hello" in the textbox.
if it was me, i would do a Response.Redirect(Request.Url.PathAndQuery) this
will reload the patch from scratch. i like this approach because it removes
the F5/refresh 'repost' problem if the user refreshes the page, and you have
no problems of maintaining the state of the page then.
however, a simpler approach would be to just update the value of the textbox
after your database update code, e.g.:
me.Textbox1.Text = "Preamble-Hello"
am i missing something?
