Hi,

I''m actually writing the same application - ASP.NET application working with
bar code scanner. Here is form, that works fine:

<mobile:Form id="FormEANFind" runat="server" Paginate="True"
PagerStyle-NextPageText="->" PagerStyle-PreviousPageText="<-"
StyleReference="Form">
<mobile:DeviceSpecific id="DeviceSpecific1" runat="server">
<Choice Filter="isHTML32"
Xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mobile/html32template...
<HeaderTemplate>
<mobile:Link id="LinkEANIndex" runat="server"
NavigateUrl="index.aspx">Index</mobile:Link>
</HeaderTemplate>
</Choice>
</mobile:DeviceSpecific>EAN:
<mobile:TextBox id="edtEAN" runat="server"></mobile:TextBox>
<mobile:Command id="btnSubmitEAN" runat="server">Find</mobile:Command>
<mobile:Label id="lblEANError" runat="server"
StyleReference="error"></mobile:Label>
<mobile:Panel id="Panel1" runat="server">
<mobile:DeviceSpecific id="DeviceSpecific5" runat="server">
<Choice Filter="isHTML32"
Xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/mobile/html32template...
<ContentTemplate>
<Script for="window" event="onload" language="jscript">
window.FormEANFind.edtEAN.focus();
</Script>
</ContentTemplate>
</Choice>
</mobile:DeviceSpecific>
</mobile:Panel>
</mobile:Form>

But trouble is to handle onchange event and take some action. I found on
Internet, that you should use such script (for example):

window.FormEANFind.edtEAN.onchange = text_changed;
function text_changed(e)
{
window.FormEANFind.btnSubmitEAN.click();
}

It looks so fine, but it doesn''t work. I''ll post question in this newsgroup,
so check it for possible answer from another user.
