Forms Data Controls :: Adding A Dropdown List As A Filter Option After Listview Is Displayed
Aug 4, 2010
I have a listview that is displaying records currently based on a dropdown.. works great.. now, within those results returned, i would like to filter down some more.. How can i add a dropdownlist to the page that is populated with data from the listview(only 1 field would be used to create the list ) and if you chose to filter by that drop down, then the listview is revised to display only records with the selected value.
Example..
Currently you pick from a drop down.. Report#1, Report#2 or Report#3 Say report#1 returns 100 records.. and the field im going to be filtering on is my "Vendor" field.. so once my listview displays my results, a dropdownlist is populated with all the vendors that were returned with the query.. could just be a few..
Now you are sitting there paging thru all the records.. and realize you really just need to see out of the 100 records, records that belong to Vendor#3, so you pick #3 from the drop downlist and the procedure is called again now filtering on that vendor..
I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category". When i click on edit to edit or change category, it doesn't display the selected category.
The example is given below( I am reading the book Sams Teach yourself ASP.NET 2.0 by Scott Mitchell. page 628)

I have a Gridview with a parameterized SQLdatasource. I want the Gridview to be filter when the a selection is made from the dropdown list Here is what I have. I am missing something.
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDSAlbums" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:Default %>" SelectCommand="SELECT Album.Album, genre.Genre, Band.Band, Album.year, Album.AlbumUID FROM Album INNER JOIN Band ON Album.BandUID = Band.BandUID LEFT OUTER JOIN genre ON Album.GenreUID = genre.GenreUID WHERE (genre.Genre = @Genre) OR (genre.Genre < 'ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ') ORDER BY genre.Genre, Band.Band" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString.ProviderName %>"> <SelectParameters> <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ddlGenre" Name="Genre" PropertyName="SelectedValue" /> </SelectParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource> <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDSGenre" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:Default %>" SelectCommand="SELECT Genre, GenreUID FROM genre Order by Genre"></asp:SqlDataSource> Select a Genre <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlGenre" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDSGenre" DataTextField="Genre" DataValueField="Genre" AppendDataBoundItems="True" AutoPostBack="True"> </asp:DropDownList> <asp:GridView ID="gvAlbum" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDSAlbums"> <Columns> <asp:BoundField DataField="Album" HeaderText="Album" SortExpression="Album" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="Genre" HeaderText="Genre" SortExpression="Genre" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="Band" HeaderText="Band" SortExpression="Band" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="year" HeaderText="Year" SortExpression="year" /> <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Comments"> <ItemTemplate> <asp:HyperLink ID="hlToComments" HeaderText="Comments" runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%# String.Format("ViewComments.aspx?AlbumUID={0}", Eval("AlbumUID")) %>' Text="Click Here" /> </ItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateField>
I have a dynamic dropdown that is populated from sql. The user is supposed to select an option from the dropdown, then click a search button on the form to return some results based on that selection. It works fine if the dropdown gets populated with more than one record. However, if only one record is returned, that one record can't be selected. Whether you select it or just leave it alone since it's the only one, when you click the form button (search button), no results are returned b/c the dropdown selection must not be actually selected.
I've included the relevant code below. First the DDL, then the datasource, and finally the C# code in the if (!Page.IsPostBack)
how to implement a filter feature like this? What Ajax or JQuery controls can be used for this (if any)?
Here is an example of how the UI might look like:
See the Exchange Management Console image:
[URL]
Here is the spec:
The ASP.NET page has a "Filter" component and a "Apply Filter" button. The "Filter" component consists of 4 UI controls as below:
1. A dropdown list with prepopulated values like "Name", "Department", "Building", "Email Address".
2. A dropdown list with four operators - "Equal", "Not Equal", "Like", and "Not Like"
3. This is a dynamic control. It could be a textbox or a dropdown list. If the user chooses "Name" from the first UI control, the third UI control will become a Textbox. If the user chooses "Department" from the first UI control, the third UI control will become a dropdown list with all departments within this company pre-populated.
4. A button with AND expression. If the user clicks this button, one more Filter component will be created.
One possible user case is like this:
ASP.NET: when the page is loaded, it displays one Filter component (3 UI controls and a AND button), a "Apply Filter" button, and an empty "Filter Result" data grid.
I have a ListView, I've setup to use an ObjectDataSource, I've created my Layout and Item templates, and I'm able pull and view a list of my data no problem. However I want to add delete capabilities to my ListView and my reference material tells me to go into the "Configure ListView..." option under the ListView's smart tag, the only problem is I don't have that option, the only three options in my smart tag are "Choose DataSource", "Configure DataSource..." and "Refresh Schema", what am I doing wrong?
I have a drop down for 6 colors...and user didn't find the color which he wants...can I place a last option as new or Edit or something which allows the user to enter the color he wants in the dropdown or change that drop down to textbox to enter data... If this is possibly then how can i capture those values in the code behind...
I have a category and a subcategory column in a Jqgrid. I have enabled inline editing, both category and subcategory are dropdownlists columns (edittype:'select'). I need to filter the subcategory list based on the selected category. I wonder how can I acheive this functionlity? I tried the below event but its not working for me
afterEditCell: function(rowid, celname, value, iRow, iCol) { //to do here }
the above event doesn't get fired. my all column are editable
I have a dropdownlist on my page that when a user selects an item sets the list for another dropdownlist. My problem is that no matter what the user selects in the 1st dropdown it resets itself to the first item in the list. I have autopostback=true and nableviewstate= true. Is there another setting i'm missing or is it my code?
I have a list of options (IEnumerable< SelectListItem >) in my model that I want to use in multiple dropdowns in my view. But each of these dropdowns could have a different selected option.
Is there an easy way to simply specfiy which should be selected if using the Html.DropDownList helper?
At this point, the only way I can see is to generate the html myself and loop through the list of options like so:
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 with .net Framework 3.5. I have a couple of textboxes: First Name, Last Name. As the user begins entering values in those textboxes I'd like the Listview to display the results querying from a database and filter those results as more letters are typed in.
I have a listview with 4 columns. I want to filter the data based on what's typed in the 4 textboxes above the listview. I'm using an Access DB and running .NET 4.0. From what I've read, I need to call a function using 'OnTextChanged' from my textboxes. Has anyone done this before? Am I on the right track by calling a function or do I need to use something like LINQ?
am using GridView with SQLDataSourceI want to add filter DropDownList to the footer of the grid,each column of the grid will have a DropDownList in its footer that has all data in that grid (including data in other pages)how to do that?
I'm trying to create a page with multiple fields to be used as parameters for filtering a GridView. I'm using a combination of two asp:dropdown lists and two check boxes. When I select a value in one ddl, I want to clear the value in the other ddl. I was trying to use the event "onTextChanged" but that doesn't seem to fire off on the client side and I cannot seem to find any event for an asp:ddl or asp:checkbox or asp:radio button that fires off on the client side.
Are there events, like onClientClick for asp:button, that fire on the client side for these controls when a selected value is changed or when the user clicks on them? or do I need to use html controls instead?
I have a GridView control that contians, among other things, a DropDownList. In this particular case, the DropDownList is in the EmptyDataTemplate, but I suspect I will run into a similar situation when I'm in Data Rows as well.I'm trying to handle the OnSelectedIndexChanged event for the DropDownList and in the .aspx file I have used the declarative syntax to assign the handler OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlStoreList_SelectedIndexChanged") and have created the handler code to deal with this.
[Code]....
The problem that I'm running into is that the event is not being handled. In other words, when I put a breakpoint in the handler, I find that it is not getting hit when I change the selection of the DropDownList.
I have a databound dropdownlist and have a problem with the default value it selects.When I attempt to edit a record the dropdownlist shows the first value in the list rather than the current value. I want the dropdown list to display the current value.
I'm sure this is very simple but I'm very new to ASP.NET.
I have a table which has like 450 fields, i want to add edit option to my GridView which allow user to edit the data for that row.i don't wanna write ItemTemplate field for 450 fields, is there a way to get it done automatic query using ListView or GridView whatever is good for it.
Last time I had problem in getting value from Dropdown List that located in the listview. I want to use the Jquery to get the value of thos Dropdown list and insert that data into the database,.
This time I have added some more radio buttun that are generated from my SQL server database and I want to use Jquery to get those radio button.
I have a dropdown list populated from the database. There is also a button next to the dropdownlist that once clicked on. It takes the item in the dropdownlist and use that to populate the gridview.however though, I would like to add a blank to the dropdownlist and message that would say, you have selected a blank whenever the user selects the blank from the dropdownlist and clicks on the button.
I want to dynamically populate data in Dropdown box in the Edititemtemplate of the Listview. The below code is showing error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". The problem is in Findcontrol function. How to solve this.
I want to give filter option in Gridview. I want to give the user a view that is similar to excel. Although i want textboxes in the header of the gridview. Thus i want to make a usercontrol or custom control for a gridview.
I have a listview which has a complicated Item template that contains a repeater, an objectdatasource and some other controls. On the first run I am only showing 10 Items of the listview. The user has an option to show 10 more ListView Items. If user clicks on show older items; the listview shall add another 10 items. how to go around this since my list view already has a datasource and I don't want to rebind the whole listview all over again. Instead; I just want to add another 10 items.
