Custom Server Controls :: Custom Control Design Time SiteMap Provider Error?
May 13, 2010
I was referred here by MSDN forums hope this is the right place - I have a custom control (:WebControl) that renders web.sitemap in a specific way. While it runs error free and produces the expected result, at Design-Time it complains
[Code]....
and have tried the SiteMapDataProvider Tag with and without the SiteMapProvider
attribute.Does anybody have (a) any experience with this, or (b) any suggestions as to how to track down the problem?

I have created a custom control from scratch and it works fine as in you can build the project that uses it and it works fine at runtime. Problem is when you go to design view the control shows an error in the place of where the control should be rendered.
Error: '<SomeValue>' Could not be set to '<SomeProperty>'
This shows up on all my custom set properties. These properties are created as basic as possible. I can give the properties values in Source view and run the app just fine. I can even add a Onclick event. If I don't set any custom properties the control will render fine in Design view. It's only when I set a value to a custom property.
Property Code Example:
[Code]....
I've even removed the Category and Description tags with no difference.
I don't know if what I said makes sens, but I hope it does.

I seriously want to learn how to create a custom server control, for that I made a requirement for myself, but lost on how to accomplish it.
Requirement -I want to create a cascading dropdownlist control - which should have following properties -1) ConnectionString - used to get data for the 1st dropdown from database, and also it is used by 2nd DropDown to get data.2) 1stSelectCommand - Used by the 1st DropDown to get data from the database.3) 2ndWhereCommand - used by the 2nd DropDown - uses the selected value from the 1st DropDown in the where clause to get data.
Methods - 1) DropDown1_SelectedIndexChanged()2) DropDown2_SelectedIndexChanged(3) CustomCascading_Changed() - this happens when any of the DropDowns index changed.
PS - This is a random requirement, of course it got nothing to do with any project or real time.I want to learn, so i incorporated basic concepts like Data Access, Custom Methods, Properties etc.PPS - I know how to create basic custom server control, so plz dont forward me links to how to create basic custom server controls. But in case with extrordinary links.

I have a simple HttpHandler that generates a dynamic image based on query string parameters and a custom web control that renders an image tag pointing to the handler as its 'src' attribute. All works fine when run in the web server, but at design timethe control displays as the "missing image" icon (red x in a box). The handler is registered in the web.config with a ".ashx" extension. The RenderContents method in the control looks like this:
output.AddAttribute("src", ResolveUrl(string.Format("~/Sparklines.SparkHandler.ashx?stype=pm&w={0}&h={1}&sv={2}&ev={3}&cv={4}&sc={5}&ec={6}&mc={7}&gs={8}",
Width.IsEmpty ? 100 : Width.Value,
Height.IsEmpty ? 15 : Height.Value,
caleStart, ScaleEnd, CurrentValue,
ColorUtils.ColorString(StartColor, true),

I created an Extender which has a custom property that drills down a list XML elements from an xml file, where users can select xml elements during design-time. This works perfectly fine. However, my code only has a hardcoded xml filename (source of the xml elements list) and I need to change this by maxing the xml file user-specified.
What I did is that I created another control (panel) which has a custom property that when clicked (through the ellipsis), it will allow a developer to select the xml file which is supposed to be the source xml file that the Extenders shall use. The filedialog from custom panel's property works perfectly fine.
However, my problem now is that when I drag-drop my Extender, I cannot find a way to get the property value of the custom Panel Control which contains the xml filename. I tried creating a static variable which I thought the custom controls can share but VS2010 is breaking.

I have a site using eight (so far) custom web user controls and two of them have started misbehaving in design view. When designing the control itself some (in one control) or all (in the other) regular controls (labels, text boxes, etc.) disappear from the design view surface. They can still be seen in the source view and if the control is hosted on a regular .aspx page the control displays properly. The code window recognizes all controls in the objects dropdown list and I can write appropriate code. The controls run properly on their hosted pages.
If I switch to Split view and select controls in the source view panel a very small area od the design surface becomes selected (like one pixel for any of us who remember programming old DOS applications with 80-column screens) but no controls can be seen.
In short, the controls work in every respect except that I cannot see all or part of the design surface in Design view when editing the controls directly.
I've double-tripple checked the source code for anything that may be causing this and just don't see anything. (The controls aren't that complicated.)

I'm developing a custom server control and want it to end with /> rather than with </cc1:CustCtrl>. I've tried changing the ToolboxData but it didn't really do it (I can see it initially appears like that but instantly changes to the standard <cc1:CustCtrl blah blah></cc1:CustCtrl>. When i drag a button from the toolbox to the forms markup it uses the <asp:Button blah blah /> markup, how can I emulate this?

i create a custom control which can hold some templates, such as Header, Body Footer, etc.
[Code]....
i tried to use smarttags to allow the user to edit each of the templates, which worked pretty well. what i could not get working was to add a template if it has not been in the control. eg. add a header-template to the control above. i tried using the RootDesigner.AddControlToDocument() function of my controldesigner. but this function gives me an error, telling me the control i'm going to add the template (i used a new HtmlGenericControl("HeaderTemplate") as new Control) to is not valid. (i can't give the exact error message, cause i use a german version of visual studio 2008) i've been searching the web for nearly half a day now, but i did'nt find a working solution for my problem.

I have created an advanced label control using web user control to cater some advanced options needed for my application. The control is working fine but there is one hitch bothering me. In normal label control when we change text or color, we can see effects during design time also but this is not functional with web user control. I mean when i change TEXT property of my label inside user control, the effect is visible on runtime not design time.
Is there any way to see effect of property changes during design time??

I have a custom Panel with attribute Designer(typeof(xxxMainPanelEditor), typeof(System.Web.UI.Design.WebControls.PanelContainerDesigner)). The child controls of this custom Panel Control at design time can see all the exposed properties that I want to share from the Parent (no problem here).
However, if I place controls on an UpdatePanel, these child controls cannot see the parent container but instead, it immediately sees the form/page or DesignerHost. The problem is the same even if I put Panel on the UpdatePanel and vise versa.
Is there a way to manage controls inside an update panel? For me, this behavior is like saying that UpdatePanel is not container based during design time?

I'm developing a set of custom controls, one of them are the "parent", any others must be added inside an ITemplate property of this parent. But in the page, at design time, I can see, by intellisense, the other controls at page level, and I can theorically add them everywhere. I want to emulate the behaviour of the asp:Table and the asp:TableRow, you can't directly add an asp.

I have seen a lot of examples posted on how to create a Custom SiteMap Provider which is directly linked to the Business Logic in the Presentation Layer, however, I would like to write a Custom SiteMap Provider which inherits from StaticSiteMapProvider and
is driven by the database. In addition, I would like to expose all of this logic behind WCF Services.
Are there any samples on how to implement a Custom SiteMap Provider over WCF Services since I am having a hard time trying to figure out exactly how to put a solution following this architectural pattern together.

I am trying to build a custom composite control, which allows me to add custom content to each child control. It's a similar concept to what you have with a GridView and TemplateColumn. The markup used to place the control on the page would end up being something like this:
[Code]....
I have the code below, which allows me to put that markup on the page without throwing any errors, and it renders all the correct HTML, except it doesn't render the contents of the ColumnTemplate. I have replaced the Render() code with a comment because it's quite long winded and doesn't add anything important here:
[Code]....
I have tried to follow examples on MSDN and other forums but I can't make this work. I think I'm missing the code to render the contents of the template, but I don't know how to hook that up.

I have a custom control which inherit from the Table class and in the constructor, it takes a an integer as an argument. There is no empty constructor.
Is there a way for the user to set that variable in the properties window after they drag the control onto a form.
I know some .NET controls, you can set the source for the parameter to different things like another control's property, QueryString using just the properties window.
Right now, I have to create the control dynamically. I read the query string and then created the object.

here's a situation and I would appreciate your response.
I have programmatically created the Wizard control:
Page_Load(obj s, evargs e)
{
Wizard ClaimDetailWizard = new Wizard();
foreach(int item in selectedItems)
{
//create new step
//added custom control to new step
//add step to wizard
}
//added wizard to a placeholder on a page
}
Based on List I get from Session i added new steps to my wizard To each step I had added a custom control
Each custom control in tern contains another custom Gridview Control in it.
So here's the problem when the page loads for example for two steps. All is good Wizard does what it's supposed to do.
But when I try to use sorting or paging in that custom Gridview. Somehow it displays the gridview I should see in the next step of the wizard.
Also what I'm noticing through debugging. Is that when I press next in the wizard I go back to the original page where I do all of the code specified above, and it recreates the wizzard. But it goes to the next step. Is this the way wizard supposed to work? Just doesn't seem very efficient.

created a Custom Textbox Control that is intended to be a "masked date" textbox, so that I can handle different ways a user might enter in a date and make it work no matter what.I did this by creating a custom control with 3 separate Textboxes one for month,one for day one for year,then do some handling for different things that could be entered and it would all work.
The problem I am having is,when I add this control to the page,if I do an alert to check the Text value of the custom control it just gives me "[ServerControl1]" even if I enter in a date.
I tried doing an AutoPostback after entering so that it would refesh the Viewstate to have the values of the textboxes but the control doesnt seem to actually postback, even though I have it enabled.accessing the Textbox value after someoen
has entered a date?first custom control I have created and have been using google.

I'm getting some wierd behaviour with my User control. I've created User control & it has BUTTON which checks the validity of the number entered in the textbox of that user control. I have written Button Clik event handler in the USer Control code behind which checks the database table and tells valid or not. So far so good. In my application i dynamically add User controls. I make sure that I add them Page_Load so that for every postback UCs are visible. I'm ussing Session to save my UserControls. The problem starts at some point when i click the Validate button in the User Control all my user controls dissappear & after some postbacks all my controls appear. I don't know why this is happening. I have included my code for reference.
