Get the value from the CheckBox Control

Question

How can I get the value from the CheckBox Control before is selected?? It doesn´t have a .Value method.

else if (c.GetType() == typeof(CheckBox)) // c is control
{
      string textValue= ((CheckBox)(c)).Text; // here I take the text
     string value= ((CheckBox)(c)).????; //how should I take the value?

Solution 1

You must get Value attribute.

string Value = checkbox1.Attributes["Value"];

Solution 2

myCheckbox.Checked

returns true or false based on the state of the checkbox.

Solution 3

try this : ((CheckBox)(c)).Checked.ToString()

Try AutoPostBack="true" on your check box in the aspx
