Clearing a TextBox in ASP.NET
The best way to do this is
textbox.text = string.Empty;
Also remember that string type is immutable!
It makes no difference - do what is most readable for you and your colleagues.
Many prefer to use string.Empty
.
- The performance difference between the two options will be too small to measure, most likely.
TextBox.Text = String.Empty;
is a lot more readable. It clearly states what you're trying to do: "set the text property of this text box to an empty string".
I recommend you go with the assignment, as it is both faster, and much more clear.
