It's too slowly to open dsource form from China this time, so I ask here :)

get user changed value of input control, just element.elementText, but how to get user changed value of plaintext control ?

I tried methods below, all failed:

elePlaintext.attribute("value"));   //old value
elePlaintext.elementText);          //nothing ?
elePlaintext.innerText);            //nothine ?
elePlaintext.innerHTML);            //old value
elePlaintext.outerHTML);            //old value

(*plaintext.value).toString

Sorry, I wasn't around :)

I use elePlaintext.innerText usually. It works fine for me. Your solution is also fine, but it uses the JSON structure.

Thanks! bobef, HTMLayout is a wonderful library, the only problem seems documentiations and examples, e.g. how to get or set element value, I can not understand that some times some methods work fine, but some times failed.

I know, but I am not likely to write documentation. That's where the original documentation comes in handy. One needs to be familiar with HTMLayout anyway...

Well this is because of how HTMLayout works. Generally you you HElement.value for elements like <input> and <select> and for normal elements like <div> <etc> you use the (inner/outer)(HTML/Text) methods. Sometimes you can use these for inputs as well.
