I am building a usercontrol which can display data with many flags. I would like to be able to able to declare it this way, or something similar to that from the asp.net page
<ctl:DisplayItem runat="server" id="ctlTest">
<flags>
<flagIsAvailable />

Can anyone add a complete input about how to create Parent Property with multiple child properties or in short nested properties.
Example: Style tag: which has properties like font, color, display... etc? which accept objects and its value.
[code]....
As soon as Rainbow property is typed, user should get intellisense for list of number of colors. Then accordingly user can select list of those colors and assign a value to them.
So what I'm trying to accomplish is this
[Code]....
The user control has public properties named accordingly and the page has protected properties accordingly which I've verified have the desired values.
For some reason the values are always empty strings or 0s in the usercontrol, no matter what the page property is.
This is page load
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{ [code]...
But in my ascx.cs when IButton1_Click is trigered My name is null
private string _sname;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ [code]...
I have several usercontrols which are loaded based on business logic.However, all of them have webcontrols whose selected/entered value needs to be accessible in parent page on an event.Since there can be any combination of UserControls, I do not want to load all the UserControls in the Parent Page, since they are heavy.
I would like to load only those controls which are supposed to appear on the page, yet access the value from the usercontrol which caused the postback. (I would rather not access using Request.Form) (ViewState is open, but unsuccessful to store value in parent page's viewstate in onClick)Here is a sample scenario
Page: Home
Dynamically Loads: UserControls1
UserControls has TextBox tb and Button btn, causing onClick
When btn is clicked, I want to get value of tb in parent page on PostBack, Page creates UserControl2
How to create create variables/properties in master page, and let sub-pages access them? So my master will have a string property HomeUrl How can any page that uses the master page access this property?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a User Control that accepts a generic List of CustomObject as a bindable property.
I'd like it to look a little somthing like this :

I'm trying to change a Label's text property and colour properties depending if an event occurs on the page behind file.
Does anyone have a similar issue?
if (((Label)FindControl("Label1")).Text != null) - //getting Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
{
Label Labelmerchantid = (Label)FindControl("Label1");
Labelmerchantid.Visible = true;
Labelmerchantid.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

I have usercontrol called as 'DateControl1' in which i have textbox and a calenderextender(ajax).I have written a property for my usercontrol as follows: public string DateFormat
{
get { return dateformat; }
set { dateformat = value; }
}
when i assign the format in my cs file as DateControl1.DateFormat = "dd-mm-yyyy", then this dateformat must be assigned to the built-in property of Calenderextender.Can anyone please tell how to do this in c# asp.net?
How can I write the C# code (aspx) to initialize the user control with some default property values? I mean where/which event? I have a user control with a gridview that I bind on container page. On page load of the container page I bind the data. I tried writing the initialization code in initproperties but it didn't work. Please suggest where can I set the default values for my usercontrol?
Edited:As suggested by DOK.. I already have a property and I change width of one of the DIVs. Here is the code that is not working.
public int CollapsiblePanelWidth
{
set[code]....
this works only if I set the width on calling program. Otherwise the default value of style="width: 105px;" is not added.
I have some user controls which have properties which need to be set from a form on the page
<uc1:MyPlugin
ID="MyPlugin2"
runat="server"
Property1="Hi"
Property2="0" Property3="<%=Property3%>"
Property4="<%#Property4
%>"
/>
Property3 and Property4 anre both public properties of the page I am on and the user control
Currently the code complaing about Property3 saying it cannot create an object of Int32 from '<%=Property3%>' and Property4 always gets set to 0 (the default)
I do not wish to use the c# code to set these values as this Plugin will be deployed with a CMS which I have no control over
when I add a custom usercontrol by code like this:
[Code]....
the compiler doesn't accept it at all...
how to access "custom usercontrol's properties" while the usercontrol itsef has been added programaticly by code.
I currently have a repeater control and inside the itemtemplate I have a usercontrol. This usercontrol renders correctly, but I am trying to assign a dataitem to a property in the repeater control.
[code]...
RequestId is just an Int32. It just doesn't assign it.
I can put the eval outside of the usercontrol just in the itemtemplate and it correctly outputs the right id.
If I remove the whole eval and just type a number in then it works fine. I was using an EntityDataSource and this automatically binded to the repeater. It printed out all the information from the database on the screen without any codebehind. But when I put in the code behind Repeater1.DataBind(); it then started to work.
I don't know why, but hey it's solved. It now successfully passes the value through. I imagine it has something to do with the page lifecycle.
I have a user control in asp.net that i need to dynmically set properties for. The propety and property values are in a dictionary, for example:
Dictionary<string, string> propertyValues;
Control c = Page.LoadControl("~/Control.ascx")
I can currently set the properties on the control using reflection, however, with .net 4 and the new dynamic keyword, is there an easier way to do it, for example, something like this:
dynamic c = Page.LoadControl("~/control.ascx");
foreach(var itemin propertyValues)
{
c.item.key = item.value;
}
this obviously doesnt work because item.key is a string and not a property.
I built a simple user control called noteEditor. I need to set/get the CommandName property when the control is used in a gridview. I seem to be able to set it just fine but when I to get it I get a null.Here is the code for my user control:

Here is how I use the control in a gridview on the host page:

As indicated by the comment, e.CommandName always returns an empty string.
I have developped a usercontrol, but I can't seem to find how to databind on a property of the usercontrol in a detailsview.The property is defined this way:

I am working on a project where we want to keep a history of a particular object. On save I want a method on the object that will determine if it has changed so that I can call a method to save its current state to history. E.g. I populate a form from an object the user makes changes (or possibly not) and submits the from. I want to take my original object and a copy of that object that has been updated from the form and determine if it has changed at all. Additionally I may decide at some point that certain properties don't matter (e.g. if Name changes I won't track it).
I'm thinking the easiest/most flexible way to accomplish this would be if I could give the properties I care about a custom attribute [ChangeTracked] and then I could use reflection to get a list of all properties with that attribute and loop through them comparing A.property == B.property to determine if any have changed.
Would this work? Is there a significantly better/easier way to handle this, like some sort of built in method you can add to an object to determine if the values of any properties have changed? Whatever the solution some psudo code would be appreciated. Just as a point of clarification the solution needs to determine if the value I care about has actually changed not just if it has been assigned since it was created i.e. if I set Name="bob" and it was already "bob" before my assignment this does not count as a change.
I'm having difficulties with adding sub-properties into Property sheet.
for example:
let's say I've created a web-control with a textbox in it. I can add to my web-control a new property such as:
public TextBox MyTextBox
{
get
{
return m_TextBox;
}
set
{
m_TextBox = value;
}
}
and this will be enough for me to add the TextBox into the property sheet of the web control each time i use this web-control.
My problem is with adding the TextBox properties into the property sheet with the sign "+" next to the "MyTextBox" property.
I'm using VS2008 if it's make the difference.
I have a UserControl that is on a masterpage... I have created the following property for the userControl in the codebehind:
[Code]....
Now I need to access this control and change that property from an aspx page that uses the masterpage with the control. I'm stuck I cannot seem to find the controls property. I can find the control and make it visible or not but I cannot find the property to modify control...
I have build a usercontrol in asp.net, and there is a property like the following.
Everything works fine when the bound value is an integer. However, if the bound field return a null from database, it will return a invalid cast error.
change to a nullable int is not desirable because it changes the how programmer work with the control's property in code-behind.

this is about ASP.NET, ViewState, UserControls and loosing the values of my properties. It is an classic question by know, I know, and even though I have searched here and on Google for a resolution to this problem, I havent succeeded. On the contrary, the more I test different things, the less I understand it seems.
On top of this I am using ext.net and their so called DirectMethod's but I dont think that has much to do with this problem. There are numerous questions I have and I hope that this text will be fairly readable and understandable =)
The UserControl
I have a UserControl, Customers.ascx, that contains some Properties. The "most" important is *_CustomerId*. The _CustomerId is set in code-behind, in ext.net's "DirectMethod" like this (code below from the Page Customers.aspx):
