Jquery textbox returns no value in asp.net

Question

Is there a work around to get the value of the textbox? Let's say I set the textbox datepicker to 09-14-2014 then after clicking button it returns no value.

Here's my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {
            $("[id$=txtDate1]").datepicker({
                dateFormat: 'mm-dd-yy',
                showOn: 'button',
                buttonImageOnly: true,
                buttonImage: 'Images/calendar.png'
            });
        });
    </script>

<asp:TextBox ID="txtDate1" runat="server" ReadOnly="true"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Search" OnClick="Button1_Click" />

Could it be that you have different time formats on the server and on the client? — Andrei V

I don't think read only values is posted back to the server.

You can remove server side ReadOnly and use this on page load.

txtDate1.Attributes.Add("readonly","readonly");

Or you can use Request.Form collection to get the values.

string date1 = Request.Form[txtDate1.UniqueID];

Sure they are. Elements with disabled do not get posted.

Should I remove it or just make it false?

@AndreiV but .net does not use it.

@NatsuDragneel you need to remove form .aspx and use attribute on page load.

Remove ReadOnly="true" from

<asp:TextBox ID="txtDate1" runat="server" ReadOnly="true"></asp:TextBox>

And in code behind add txtDate1.Attributes.Add("readonly", "readonly");

By doing this you can retrieve read-only textbox's value in the code behind.
