Why you are not using a label / div control and associate a JavaSscript with the TextBox change to write the text on label or dIv's innerhtml

Hi,

You could use javascript to do so, just add your text to a div should do the trick, or if you prefer using codebehind I'd use a list control and add literals containing the last value of your textbox at runtime.

I hope I understood your question...

Solution 2

You can add an Attribute of onChange with the TextBox, that will call a JavaScript method.
TextBox1.Attributes.Add("onchange", "JSMethod();");
On that particular method you can override the other control text by getting the value of current textbox.
