Ok I have a fairly simple issue I want to define some session state variables
So far in my code behind in C# for an aspx page I have the following type of declaration working fine in my index.aspx.cs file.
Session[Constants.firstName] = "Jordan";
or
Session[Constants.firstName] = 123;
I want to grab the Text from the index.aspx Textboxes though instead like so.
Session[Constants.firstName] = txtb_FName.Text;
The problem is that changing this to the variable txtb_FName.Text does not work and when I debug it shows the local variable is being filled with "" not the input from my Textbox.
The whole CODE trail looks like this;
