Custom Server Controls :: Get Value Of Textboxes In Dynamic Custom Server Controls
Aug 4, 2010
how do i get the values of the textboxes of my dynamicly created user controls. I have somthing similar to the code below which adds many instance of the same user control to a panel but with diffrent properties value :
[Code]....
and here is the code-behind for the control
[Code]....
and this is the .ascx
[Code]....
And here is what the controls look like when thay are created

I know that i have to recreate the controls on each postback but i need to know how to get the values of the entered text for each textbox
I have a scenario where I've created a custom control that connects to a database and gets records from the last X number of months where X is any desired number. I use a "MinDate" parameter to determine how far back to look.
When I add my control to my page, how can I set the "MinDate" parameter to something like "DateTime.Today.AddMonths(-3)"? I've tried:
I have a custom server control inheriting from CompositeControl. It consists of two RadioButtonlist controls that are rendered side by side in an html table. The number of ListItems in each RadioButtonList is not known until runtime. Depending on how many items each list contains, the RepeatColumns property of each list is set differently. To do this in the handler for the ItemDataBound event I need to get the count of ListItems in each RadioButtonList. How do I expose the Items.Count property of each internal RadioButtonList as a top-level property? I tried using a getter to return the count but this generates a compile-time error to the effect that the count cannot be assigned to--even though I have not created a setter.
Similarly, in the handler for the Submit event, I need to get the ClientID of each internal RadioButtonList to pass to a method that checks for data changes. How do I expose the ClientID of each component RadioButtonList as a top-level property?
I can of course index the Controls collection of the composite control to access the child control and read its properties--but that defeats the whole point of making a complex, independent custom server control.
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 am new to technology so go easy on this post according to what i read from web there are 3 type of custom server controls 1 superclass2 composite 3 renderedi found video tutorial for superclass custom server control but couldnt find video tutials for other 2.lease forward me link for composite and rendered custom server controls video tutorial
I am creating custom server control. I have two classes in project. One is main class that render control and another will be used to render content based on condition.I just want to know how to render content from other classes in main class.For example. This isjust an example.My main class code
[Code]....
My TopLeftPane class
[Code]....
My page code on page load event
[Code]....
When I run the page, Header title always getting null. This is a just sample code. I will have more than 20 classes so I dont want to write a code in main class to render whole control.I hope all of you understand my problem.
I have to use inline code for an aspx page and I need to use a custom server control that is defined in the same aspx page but the control does not get processed as a server control. it gets returned as is as static html tag.
I am creating a custom server control, and I am wanting to include a JavaScript file in the dll file when the control is built. I have tried suggestions from the following websites:[URL] But after following the directions, If I use firebug to see what errors show up, the JavaScript functions that are being called all say "goNext is not defined" which leads me to believe the JavaScript file is not being added correctly.
Some information on what my control looks like
I have the JavaScript File in a folder called Script. The namespace of the project is CustomControl, and the Name of the project is MaskedDateTextbox.
is it posible to add client side functionality to a custom server control in vb.net?i am looking at msdn library and there is no code for vb :/ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa719700%28v=VS.71%29.aspxI fount this on MSDN Library Adding Client Capabilities to a Web Server ControlWhat i'm trying to do is to add some client functionality to my control, so that you can get or set some properties/values on client side. From the above link i see that this is doable with Ajax Server Control, but i don't have it, i have Custom Server Control. Can i do this with Custom Server Control and how?
I've build a custom server control inheriting from WebControl. Basically it is a kind of button. All is working perfectly except one thing: the PostBackUrl is inoperative.
I probably forgot to implement something. Actually I just added the property PostBackUrl. Probably I should also implement an interface of call something.
I have a control inherited from datalist because I want all the same functionality but with a couple of extra properties.
I have a method that goes off and gets the data inside the control (instead of using a separate datasource ID). It's reading it from XML into a datatable.
If on the code behind of the aspx page I put the control on I put a thecontrol.databind() in the page load, all works well.
However I'd rather not have to do this, instead the control should bind itself.
I gather it's something to do with the order of events but I'm not sure what to do about it.
I don't want to reinvent the datalist wheel, just add a couple of properties and get it's own data
i am making a custom server control. I have embedded images and javascript in class library.But images are not displaying when i use that control in aspx page.my code is
I'm having a dumb problem that is killing me. I have created the simpelest custom server control in VS 2008 c# called MyMsgBox. On the ASP page I put it in and register it. But, in the .cs file, when I try to call one of its functions I get the compile error that it is not found. The funny thing is that intellesense has it in the list and all of the functions with their given arguements. At the top of the .cs file I am using the namespace. The code for the custom server control is in the App_Code folder. Also when I remove all refrences to its functions, the code compiles and when debugging the constructor for the class MyMsgBox gets hit.
this.msgBox1.confirm("Would You Like to add a new Task for this PO/Contract? ", "hid_f"); Error Message: 'Tasks' does not contain a definition for 'msgBox1' and no extension method 'msgBox1' accepting a first argument of type 'Tasks' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I created a customDropdown usercontrol with Events and It worked fine.
Now I stored the path of the ascx file in the database table and i want to Load the ascx file and handle the Events dynamically in an aspx page.
To Load the usercontrol and access the public properties and method, I need to know the object i am trying to load, right?
For Example
FeaturedDDL c = (FeaturedDDL)Page.LoadControl("~/FeaturedDDL.ascx").
But I dont want to hardcode objectType "FeaturedDDL", coz i dont have that stored in my Database field.
Since I am loading the usercontrol by getting the path and name of the usercontrol from the database table,how will I know the ObjectType at that time?
How to accomplish that and also how to handle the events for these type of situation?
I have developed a dynamic menu with asp.net, everything is believed correctly. The problem that I have is that there are items of the menu that have the empty route, that is to say NavigateUrl = "", and however the cursor that he/she takes the mouse when it passes above the links it is hand, and I want that, if he/she doesn't have route to which to go takes cursor=text.
I have proven putting it in the leaf of styles, putting it for code, but anything, when I pass the mouse above the text that puts in the menu it puts me the cursor with hand. I believe that the problem is that he/she is taking the style of the hyperlink, but this style I don't want to change.
I am using two user controls in my page. The controls are loaded dynamically one at a time. I'm just referencing the user controls in the page and loading them dynamically using 'LoadControl()'. Everything is working fine till now and the user can switch the controls one another.
Here the issue I found is eventhough the controls are working as expected and the data is visible, the rendered HTML contains only the first loaded user control's markup.
Even if the current control displayed is 'usercontrol2', the source shows 'usercontrol1' markup. How can I force the page to render 'usercontrol2' markup and remove 'usercontrol1' markup while loading'usercontrol2'?
I have some (probably very basic) questions about developing custom controls. I am wanting to derive a set of button controls, and the first one I have started on is a "DeleteButton", that has a additional property (DeleteConfirmationText) that is built into the OnClientClick attribute. To get that added, I overrode the Render method as follows:
[Code]....
This all works well. Now, I will add some logic to make sure that there is some text in the DeleteConfirmationText property, but that isn't the intent of my question. What I am also wanting to do is to override some of the default property values, so I added that to the default constructor:
[Code]....
Now, in the designer in VS2008, and I look at the properties for the control, there isn't a default value shown in the "Properties" section, and the Causesvalidation still shows the underlying classes default value of "True". As well, in design mode, where the GridView control that containse my DeleteButton control would be displayed, there is an error box "There was an error rendering the control. 'Are you certain you want to delete this attorney?' cound not be set on property 'DeleteConfirmationText'. Here's the markup where I am defining the deletebutton control:
how to make a control that can have controls nested inside it. I've made a jQuery tab browser class which uses a hidden field to remember which tab is selected and create the relevant client script to re-select it on postback...it works fine...
This is for web part development so all controls are created dynamically.
The problem is when I add a control to one of the tabs, the values set in that control disappear on postback..I understand there is a lot of information about user controls, viewstate and control state but nothing seems to give me access to those values...
I've boiled it right down to the basics and still can't get it to work unless the custom control has all its controls added in OnInit...which is bad news for me because I need to instantiate the browser, the use a 'AddTab' method to add tabs and controls to them, which occurs after the OnInit event and therefore I can't access the postback values!!
I get the feeling I'm missing something big here, I must be lol...here's is an example:
[Code]....
These controls have to be dynamically created, so I didn't see the need to make the ascx user controls..
