Remarks

The ServerChange event is raised when the content of the HtmlTextArea control changes between posts to the server. This event is commonly used to perform data validation on the text box.

Note

This event is only raised when the user initiates a post to the server, such as clicking a submit button. This event does not cause a post to the server to occur.

Note

The control must have viewstate enabled for the ServerChange event to work correctly.

For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.
