c# - reading from text box and passing to another page -

i want read text textbox , send page. on page keep geting empty string. why doesn't work ?

i have on page 1:

public string _beseda() {     return textbox1.text;           } 

and on page 2 should retrieve string:

private void button1_click(object sender, routedeventargs e) {     page2 neki = new page2();     messagebox.show(neki._beseda()); } 

there 2 strategies pass data between pages in windows phone.

1. use app.cs
2. pass data parameter values during navigation

1. using app.cs

open app.cs code behind of app.xaml write:

 // store textbox value     public string storevalue; 

in page1

 protected override void onnavigatedfrom(system.windows.navigation.navigationeventargs e)     {         base.onnavigatedfrom(e);         app app = application.current  app;         app.storevalue = textbox1.text;                 } 

on page2

 private void button1_click(object sender, routedeventargs e) {      app app = application.current  app;     messagebox.show(app.storevalue); } 

2. passing values parameters while navigating

before navigating embed textbox value page url

    string newurl = "/page2.xaml?text="+textbox1.text;     navigationservice.navigate(new uri(newurl, urikind.relative)); 

in page2

    //temporarily hold value got navigation      string textboxvalue = "";     protected override void onnavigatedto(system.windows.navigation.navigationeventargs e)     {         base.onnavigatedto(e);         //retrieve value passed during page navigation          navigationcontext.querystring.trygetvalue("text", out textboxvalue)                    }        private void button1_click(object sender, routedeventargs e) {         messagebox.show(textboxvalue);      }
