Autocomplete: Display Data Different From What Is Filled And Filling In Multiple Fields?
Jan 5, 2010
I'm using asp.NET MVC, and am looking at the JQuery autocomplete plugin for what I want to do. I need some extra functionality that I don't think it provides.
I have a page with two text fields, First and Last name. Ideally, when someone begins typing into either, I would like autocomplete to display both the first and last name of all matches. If one of these matches were selected, I would like only the appropriate (first/last) name to go into the current field, while the other field is also filled in with the appropriate name.
So the problems here are that A) I would like the suggestion text to be different from the value that would be filled into the current field, and B) I would like to update multiple fields from a single autocomplete. Does this make sense? It seems to be difficult to find information on this situation on the net.
I'm trying to use the AutoComplete feature of JQuery to update multiple fields on an ASP.NET web page. The individual textbox is functioning perfectly, but I cannot figure out how to update multiple textboxes on the page once the user selects.
I've read many suggestions here that state I need to implement a result handler, but my intellisense is not showing that as an option, and IE I get a JS error saying that the object doesn't support this method.
I am linking to jquery-1.4.2.min.js and jquery-ui-1.8.5.custom.min.js .Here's my code:
I have a details view on my page that has a template field in it. In the template field is a button that when clicked, sets the visible property of another field to true. When this happens the whole detailsview resets and anything that was entered into other fiields is cleared. Is there any way to prevent the other fields from being cleared when the hidden field is set to be shown.
I have two tables (Person and Location) In the Dynamic Data Site, when adding Location info, I am need to choose a person from the dropdown box which is populated via a FK. That dropdown box defaults to the field in "Person" that is titled "fname" which is first name, so it looks like "Jim" or "Steve".
I'm trying to have that dropdown box display the full name of the person it references which would be combining the fields fname and lname.
Would I do this inside a Field Template? Metadata? I'm kind of stuck on this.
If I look at the FieldTemplate for ForeignKey_Edit I see this:
[code]...
and it seems like I should be able to make something similar to "PopulateListControl" and use that instead, but I have no idea where this method even resides.
I have an autocomplete extender working great returning one column and I can also retrieve multiple columns just fine from my stored procedure, but here's what I really need to do:
1. Format the data in the autocomplete extender in the following format:
Location Number Address City, State, Zip
2. When the user makes a selection I want only the Location Number to populate the textbox.
I've looked quite a bit on this site and others on how to do #2 and I can't seem to find exactly how this should be done. Is there some javascript that needs to be involved in order accomplish this?
In a form I have autocomplete extender which fills a textbox. Requirement is to fill all fields of form using that extender. Like user should select company name from textbox with extender and based on that all fields should be filled.
I am looking for a simple (or best practice) way of pre filling some of the fields in a create form. As an example, say the create view is loaded for a model that has a datetime field. I want the textbox for that field to be filled with DateTime.Now. I don't need a javascript watermark or anything like that, I jsut want to pre fill the text box.
The GET version of my Create method in the controller just returns the view with no model so I am not sure where to set this value.I've beel trying to figure this out for a while and I must be missing something, I expected this to be really easy.
i have a table containing multiple agents , another three containing events ( three types of events , each category in a diffrernt table) organised by each agents! , i have to figure out how to fill a grid view that regroups a summary of the activity of every agent ! for example :
that means that the agent 1 have organised 3 EVENT1 0 EVENT2 and 2 EVENT3 ....
i have used the count(*) clause to fgure out the number of rows in table events referencing to each agent (group by) but it seems that value 0 is not returned by the clause , so i'm having a problem getting the exact values!
secondal , i have putted two calendar that will fix the beginnig and the end of the summary , but it seems that the end day is not included : it says 18/01/2010 00:00:00 and i have some events planned in 18/10/2010 14:10:00 so they are not counted !
What I'm trying to do is fill the buttons name programatically. So far I will get X and Y values and i need to change the text of that button at that position.
I know it's possible to do x0_y3.text = xxxx for each position but this will take years, i'm looking for a solution using a loop or some other technique to easily replace the text values. and the buttons are under an updatepanel.
ex : GIVEN : xx=2 yy=2
ex. WHERE IT IS "x" & xx and "y" & yy REPLACE TEXT WITH "hello"
I tried something like this, but it doesn't work with the updatepanel for some reason, but it works fine if i use a simple panel
Code: For Each c As Button In UpdatePanel1.Controls.OfType(Of Button)() MsgBox(c.ID) c.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Yellow Next
I found this usefull code in this website but i was wondering a way to select a multiple names in textbox inside GridView. I have seen one exampe on this website but the example is not in GridView. Here is my code that works fine now but it does not let me select multiple names:
How to link multiple DataSets (why SSRS call it a DataSet even there is only one bunch of data fields in it) using keys, then put data fields from multiple DataSets into one Data Region? The reason I have to do this is: There will be 6 major DataSets to be used together few times in same report, it is not make sense to build a huge Matrix for all of them together. (in some data region I use data from dataset A and B, some times I use data from dataset A and C, D ...)
I have a listview control bound to an SqlDataSource. As part of the formatting I want to add a title to the data returned from my database. For instance if the data base returns a phone number I want to add 'Tel.' first. However I do not want to diplay this title if the datafield is empty. Here is what I have done so far.
Business is a phone number. If the data field contains a number I get: Tel. 1234 123456. If the field is empty I get Tel. If Business is null I want nothing dsplayed, how do I do this?
I have a method in my button code to run the query, it returns a value and save it to a Session variable to be used later, this code works.Dim connString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DBConnectionString").ConnectionStringUsing myConnection As New SqlConnection(connString)
Const sql As String = "SELECT Rate1 FROM Rates WHERE (LayerID = '01')" Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand(sql, myConnection) myConnection.Open()
Iam using the below code in ASPX for displaying images that are present inside my website project folder
<a href=""><%# Eval("Columnname","Foldername/{0}") %></a> eg: <%# Eval("Gallery","ImageFolder/{0}") %> Now my question is I want to call the foldername itself from database its column name is GalleryFolder <%#Eval("GalleryFolder")%>
