Forms Data Controls :: Add New Item To Bound List & Refresh?

Jan 31, 2011

I have a databound FormView with a dropdown list of categories. All works as expected, but I want to provide the facility for the user to add a new category to the list and I can't find an elegant way to do it. My current approach is to have a simple modal popup (Ajax toolkit) with a FormView (bound to the Categories table). That successfully inserts the new row, but it doesn't show in the dropdown so it can't be selected. I can force a refresh by calling formview.DataBind() in a suitable event handler, but that of course moves the formview off the selected record and loses any changes the user may have made.

Is there a convenient way (perhaps using AJAX, avoiding a postback entirely) to update the Categories table and refresh the dropdown without moving off of the current FormView's record? I feel sure this
must be a frequent and basic requirement, but I've not found any mention of how to implement it.

[ASP.Net 4.0, by the way]

Forms Data Controls :: How To Refresh The Dropdown List In The Details View After The Gridview Item Has Been Deleted

Nov 16, 2010

I have a dropdown list within a details view that allows me to set 1 or many categories to a perticular record(in this case a photo). The select command in this case only displays those catetegories that are not already attached to the selected photo.

all works well and as you select a category and add it to the database the category is removed from the dropdown list and is added to a gridview which shows all categories that photo is stored with.

My Problem is that when i delete the category from the gridview the dropdown list does not delete with said deleted item unless i do a "click in URL bar and press enter" to totally refresh the page.....

how to refresh the dropdown list in the details view after the gridview item has been deleted?

Page_load Fires Twice For UpdatePanel Refresh Whilst Having A JQuery Bound Change Event On A Dropdown List?

Sep 11, 2010

I've tried to wrap up my problem with a complete example below - the original problem is part of a jQuery plug-in that I'm writing to extend the behaviour of an ASP.NET ajax application I already have.

The aspx page below has one drop down list which is marked for auto post back. I've also bound a change event using jquery (which ultimately I will swap for a .live() event to maintain the binding after the update panel refresh.) The problem is, when the jQuery event is bound I see two ajax begin requests and page_loads fire but only one ddlTest_OnselectedIndexChanged event. One of the page loads is malformed too - the content-length states it's about 300 bytes long whilst the totalBytes is 0 and form data empty. This does not happen if I bind to the click event of a button.

why the erroneous page_load event is firing ?

Forms Data Controls :: Aborting Item Creation In Bound Repeater

Apr 9, 2010

I have what's bound to be a stupid question, so I'll apologize for what I think should be an obvious answer my brain just can't see. My problem is very simple. I have a Repeater control bound to a SqlDataSource. The ItemTemplate in this case is one complicated beast, and rendering can take a loong time if too many records are returned; so I need to maintain tight control over how many records are brought back from the data source.

Is there not some way of either stopping the creation of subsequent RepeaterItems once a certain count has been reached, or cancelling the bind if more than a certain number of records are returned? I know I can grab the record count from the AffectedRows property in the Selected event of the DataSource, but I've encountered a brain-lock on how to stop/inhibit the binding (or RepeaterItem creation beyond x records).

I'm happy with either aborting the binding altogether if the record count is too high (displaying no records), or simply stopping it after X records are returned; at this point, I'm not picky. Either way would work, and it seems I ought to be able to readily figure out either one, but my brain has simply gone into neutral.

Forms Data Controls :: Format Generic List Bound To Gridview

Aug 21, 2010

I have a generic list of a custom type. The custom type has a string and double.I'm binding the list to a gridview and it outputs everything fine.I'm trying to format the double column into a currency format. It is in a template field as I'm calculating a running total. I pass the value to a function that returns a double and adds the current value to a running total which I will show in the footer.

The format is not changing to currency as expected when using String.Format("{0:c}", GetTotal(Convert.ToDouble(Eval("Amount"))))

How can I bind a datalist control with a list of objects. I have a list of objects that contain a name, desc, and url for menu commands that I am trying to show in a DataList.
