I have a page in my asp.net website which has a label that shows the price. I have used an Eval and used {0:c} to format the price, however the price is shown in $, can anyone let me know how to change this to £ sign rather $.
I have a string that I'm pulling from an Excel spreadsheet that is x.firstName
When I pull it in it gets converted to x#FirstName
Fine. So I tried string.replace as shown below and it change my string.
here's my code:
string stFormattedColumnName = objDataset1.Tables[0].Columns[i].ToString().ToLower(); //value is x#firstName stFormattedColumnName.Replace('#', '.'); //value is still x#firstName
My website will target UK and US markets, and i need to display a different price/currency for both markets - what is the best way around this?
1) a simple drop down box asking users preference? 2) Using culture class in asp .net to auto detect eg System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture
With reference to the following thread: URL....I have problem applying the same concept to gridview EditItemTemplate. Is there a way i can add comma to large numbers and display it in currency format like exemple below:
Textbox3=Textbox1 * Textbox2
Textbox3= 1,000.00
Textbox3 should happen OnTextChanged and the above controls are in Gridview edit mode.
How can i calculate the sum of two textboxes(Textbox1 and Textbox2) and then add comma with .00 to another textbox(Textbox3). Example say Textbox1 = 2 and Textbox2 = 500

U knw when new user sign in yahoo then display a message like this i want to this
... nothing is displayed. However, outside of the <% %> tags (ie in the HTML) £ displays correctly.
I have no trouble displaying the usual alphanumerics, it's just the £ sign that is proving problematic. The underlying file is in Windows 1252 encoding, and I need to serve it as such. If I save the file as UTF-8, I get mojibake instead of a £.
what I can do to make this work, or any settings that might be preventing it from working (other than saving the file in a different format)?
I've come to a scenario where I need to databind something only if the user is logged in. To do this I am using the LoginView control to display a Login control when they are not logged in and a GridView control when they are logged in. However, when I databind to the GridView object in the LoginView, nothing ever gets displayed. I have been debugging it and I am databinding it to a DataTable that definitely has data in it, however nothing shows up.
Here is some of the code:
if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) { ((GridView)LoginView1.FindControl("GridView1")).DataSource = dt; ((GridView)LoginView1.FindControl("GridView1")).DataBind(); }
Is there a particular reason that this should not work? Is it bad practice?
I need to be able to get the value in the "first" row of a Gridview as its getting or right after it is displayed.
I thought this would work but its coming up null.
I'm using the DataBound event to get the value of the control of a selected row...assuming the selected row is the first row which is probably the error of my ways. Any ideas how to get at this value easily?
i have an datatable called orders. One of the columns is "OrderAmount" In the aspx, page I have a datalist and am using the {0:c} in the item template but it is not showing the £ symbol or the amount in correct number format.
In my datatable I am not sure if I need to use Int or Float.
the amount I want to enter is £21,316.56. I have tried entering 2131651 but it does not display correctly in data list.
I have a .Net 4 Chart Control bound to stored proc. For some customer selected queries the chart will be empty. I would like to display a "No data" message in the empty charting area so customers understand why the chart is empty. I haven't been able to find any information about how to do this.
i have a FormView, and i already have a Label control that gets the value of theselected propery inside the FormView, so each time the FormView displays data, i have a Label control that displays individual values, according to the value of the FormView, here is the code:
[code]....
What i would like to do is to know how i could add a DataList instead of a Label, and then each time the FormView databinds an item, to show the value of the DataList How would i go about doing that?
The amount of li elements that will be rendered into each ul is determined at runtime. Each link in a li belongs to into a specific ul (the one containing a specific caption. Imagine this as a kind of a treeview with nodes and subnodes) During the bind Event I need access to an ASP:HyperLink that will be rendered into the a-element. Which databound ASP.Net control should I pick for this? Looks like a repeater in a repeater, which should make the databinding process ugly. I'm thinking about creating this HTML-Output with StringWriters myself.
I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?
I have one one web page which one one textbox for receiving the dollar value. My requirement is the user should insert the digit following by a $ sysmbol. And the second requirement is the user has the permission to insert only like this $123.45. Before the decimal point it should not exceed three digits and after the decimal point it should not exceed two digits.
I was trying to use the web service for currency rate to get the rate, althought I have already add web reference to[URL] but I still do not know how to retrieve it from there. I'm using asp.net vb.
Web service API: I noticed that some companies like to pass integer as the "currency" amount, rather than pass a decimal data type with a decimal place ($ 100.29) is there a good reason why they choose integer for currency over decimal data type? Example, they do this
I've been given this requirement to set the selected currency to native for the app I'm working on. Short of a switch statement I am not sure how to do this. ois there more of an elegant way of getting the native currency?Also this might be another issue I have currences stored as strings "USD", "GBP" etc.
