How to get textfield values

I created a UI by parsing XML (I haven't used a xib file). That is, I created two text fields and one button. Now I want to get both textfield values when the button is clicked. Can anyone suggest how to do this?

You can access the text of a UITextField using

NSString *textFieldValue = myTextField.text;

or use

NSString *textFieldValue = [myTextField text];

Make sure your button has this:

[button addTarget:self action:@selector(getTextValue:) 
    forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

Then, make this method (or whatever is in your @selector):

-(void)getTextValue:(id)sender {
    NSString *one = yourtextfield.text;
    NSString *two = yourtextfield2.text;
}

Use the text property of UITextField , like below 

NSString* myFirstValue = [myFirstTextField.text retain];

NSString* mySecondValue = [mySecondTextField.text retain];

after using both value don't forget to release them 

 [myFirstValue release];
 [mySecondValue release];

if you have created textfield by code and you want to get text of textfield in button action then you can declare textfield in .h file and in your action call

[textfield text];
