I am creating a custom server control (derived from WebControl).
In RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter), I must use HtmlTextWriter.Indent to manipulate indentations.
Unfortunately, this property always starts with zero so it breaks the indentation from the host/parent control.
My question is, how to know the last indent value of the parent tag that contains my custom server control?

View 1 RepliesI 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.

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.
View 3 RepliesI 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.
How would I add a (dropdown) list of available values for a custom server control property?
(Just like 'Visible' property of most controls has valid values of 'True/False' and nothing else can be entered or selected)
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.
In my AssemblyInfo I have the following:
<Assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")>
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?
View 16 RepliesI'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
[assembly: WebResource("ClassLibrary1.mail2mohanpyare.skins.kama.icons.png", "img/png")]
and how can i convert ckeditor in class library.
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.
<%@ Register TagPrefix="cc1" Namespace="CustomServerControls" %>
...
<cc1:MyMsgBox ID="msgBox1" runat="server" />
Task.aspx.cs
...
Using CustomServerControls;
...
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 want to use an image inside a Custom Web server control! Do I need to use Web.resources ? if so , how to do ?
View 9 RepliesI 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:

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.

View 1 RepliesI've done a fair bit of winforms programming but I'm still relatively new to ASP.NET. I have developed a few custom server controls however I am not quite sure what to do when they require certain client side java includes etc. For example, I've developed a server control which uses some jQuery UI stuff. At the moment I manually need to ensure that the jQuery stuff is referenced in the header section of the page I use control in, but is there a way to check if it is present and add it if not from the server control?

I've been used some code I found on dotnetjunkies.com but the client-side validation didn't work. I've been attempting to modify it to get the client-side javascript validation to work with no luck.

I have created a really simple custom control to render panels into a page. The code is below. When I use my control and add any webcontrol to it, after each page postback the contents of these child controls vanishes.
I must have missed something really simple but run the example to reproduce this. Can anyone please enlighten me as to why the controls are being 'emptied' of their contents, and how I stop this occuring?
Here is the code for the control

I'm building an n-tier application, with the web client and the class library separate. I'm also using the factory pattern of development, using interfaces to act as containers for different objects they are associated with. The problem I'm expreriencing is that I declared a public interface class in the class library and I can create an instance of it in in my aspx pages but whenever I declare it in my custom control code-side, i get an error, like so:
Error 20 The type or namespace name 'IContentMaker' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
notge that I have inherited the class library namespace using the 'using' keyword just in case you are wondering. My code is like so:
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using TQO_Classes ; //importing the class library project
public partial class PageContentMgr : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
private IContentMaker _data; //this line throws the error, it works fine on aspx pages
