I am rendering custom control. After rendered the control it dynamically creates one span. how to remove that span. I explained it below
<span id ="CustomControl">
<div id ="CustomControl_CC" runat ="server">
rendering part
</div>
</span>
The bold part only i am rendering how it creating span
when i create a server control by default

can i create a server control that when campile to html not have a span
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 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),
[code]...
Split off from [URL] I can't just change for a repeater.
Is it possible to remove <br /> tags by setting RepeatDirection="Horizontal"?
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'?
The method GetDesignTimeHtml of the ControlDesigner class should return html markup that will be shown on the page in design time. My problem is that control looks different in different versions of the visual studio. What is the rendering engine visual studio use to render control in design mode?
View 2 RepliesI am creatin a server control where some controls are being rendered inside `protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)`
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Type, "button");
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Id, this.UniqueID + "butto_Foo1");
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Value, "Button1");
writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Input);
writer.RenderEndTag(); //button
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Type, "button");
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Id, this.UniqueID + "butto_Foo2");
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Value, "Button2");
writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Input);
writer.RenderEndTag(); //button
This way buttons are rendered on design view as well. The problem is that number of buttons to render is dynamic based on data in xml file (even if the data was static, the number of button is about 12 and I don't think it is wise to copy paste the same code above 6 times...). I thought by using loop for that:
int i = 1;
foreach (Button button in tb.Items)
{
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Type, "button");
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Id, this.UniqueID + "butto_Foo" + i);
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Value, button.ButtonValue);
writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Input);
writer.RenderEndTag(); //button
i++;
}
tb is defined in OnLoad; On run time it works, but on design time I get error: > Error rendering control. And control is not being rendered.
I have been trying to implement an extended GridView that eventually will include a panel with a number of filter options outside of the grid iteself.
As a test I have added a dropdownlist and a linkbutton but when these are rendered to the page they are rendered as plain HTML with none of the javascript or ids that are generated for server controls as a consequence the postback event is not fired when a dropdownlist item changes and the linkbutton is rendered as plain text.

Two separate questions, but sufficiently intertwined that I'm going to try the two together....
Firstly - User Controls and Behaviours
I have a User Control which contains a few visual controls. I am attaching some behaviours by using GetScriptDescriptors and am passing some JavaScript to the browser using GetScriptReferences. That is all rock solid and working well. However, when developing, I did discover that I couldn't attach the ehaviours to the User Control itself - not surprising as rendering a User Control does not create a DOM element which represents the actual control. So, I have attached my behaviours to a "random" TextBox within the User Control.
So - first question, is there a better way to do that? For example, should I always be rendering a SPAN as an element to surround the control? Not sure what that would do to the robustness of the rendering. What is the right way to attach a behaviour to a User Control.
Secondly - Accessing those same Behaviours later
Assume I have placed a User Control on the page. That User Control exposes a Property (actually a Javascript Function of course) which does "something" to the control - for the sake of example we'll say that the function is set_Border(colour). I then have a behaviour on the same page (actually an Extender on a different control) which needs to call the function. I have a reference to the User Control in my script, so I have tried TheControlReference.set_Border('red') and find that my control doesn't support the set_Border method.
I guess this is probably because the behaviours are not attached to the User Control itself, but to a GUI element within it. Hence, I suspect that the answer to the second question lies within the answer to the first.
I have created a custom gridview that show "Select All | Clear All" hyper links in header to select the checkboxes in the gridview. That means that I have added these two hyperlink controls to the gridview header and am not showing the actual column headers.
[Code]....
Now, I want to remove the border that is displayed on the header row. How can I remove it? I tried th.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.None; but it didn't work. I need gridlines in the data rows but the header row should not have any border.

When using an asp.net CheckBox (and in out case, inherited from a CheckBox) it renders a span around the checkbox input control, this span control is affecting jQuery scripts.
Is it possible to remove this span when rendering?
how we can access the Remove button event of the Collection Editor dialogue box?
View 3 RepliesI have some rendering logic for custom markup (a'la bbcode, but not bbcode). So that when I'm getting the stuff from DB I'm then calling MyRender.ToHTML(model.text)... Now what I do today is I just have a form below and I do a post and add the item and return the same view. My question is - how to do it with ajax? Should I create a control and return HTML a'la winforms? Is that sexy? How do you do something like that? Or should I drop it? Maybe duplicate the rendering logic with javascript?
View 1 RepliesI currently have a file "abc.htm" in my Custom Server Control Project and it's Build Action is set to Embedded Resource.Now in the RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter output) method, I need to read that file and render it on the website.I am trying the following but it's to no avail:
protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter output)
{
var providersURL = Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(typeof (OpenIDSel), "OpenIDSelector.Providers.htm");
var fi = new FileInfo(providersURL); // <- exception here
//the remaining code is to possibly render the file
}
This is an example of how the providersURL is:
/WebResource.axd?d=kyU2OiYu6lwshLH4pRUCUmG-pzI4xDC1ii9u032IPWwUzMsFzFHzL3veInwslz8Y0&t=634056587753507131
FileInfo is throwing System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path.
When developing custom controls and using them in ASP.NET, what are the answers to the following?
- What events to use for loading and saving viewstate for controls (is this the same thing as control state?) and also for custom controls?
- Similarly, which events should I use to render controls? Is this PreInit and Load? Is this the same for custom controls?
I'm working on a custom navigation menu, I've added the following property within my MenuItem class to allow users add them controls into it.

View 5 RepliesI have created a custom control with three dropdown list boxes. Based on the selectedItem in the first ddl, other two ddl items will be populated. I have this part working fine.
I have an asp:panel control, "Add", "Delete" and "Submit" buttons with in an ASPxRoundPanel on my web page.
btnAdd_Click event has the following code:
Control control = LoadControl(Path + "myCustomFilter.ascx");
control.ID = "FilterControl" + Convert.ToString(pnlCustomFilter.Controls.Count + 1);
((myCustomFilter)control).FilterDataSource = dtSource;
//Add to dynamic control panel
pnlFilterControl.Controls.Add(control);
First added control displays fine. When I add second control, I don't see pnlCustomFilter display on the page.
What code should go into Page_Load IsPostBack block to refresh pnlCustomFilter and myCustomFilter selected items? When delete button is clicked, I need to delete selected customControl from pnlCustomFilter. How do I get selected pnlCustomFilter.ControlId? How do I delete it?
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.
