Forms Data Controls :: Adding A Friendly Url To DetailsView?
Jan 5, 2010
I have a small application which allows publishers to update some information at will, one of the problems I have encountered is that sometimes they want to put in a url to certain section within the site.
The url expands the div, and I have this as an expandable div (vertical) and have been using the word-wrap:break-word to put wrap the url.
how to make the user choose what text they want to use and behave like a hyperlink. I was looking for this to be done in the detailsview edit mode.
I have a GridView and DetailsView on the same page. If the GridView has data, I can Select a row and it brings up the DetailsView from which I can edit that record or click NEW to create a new record. Without a record to Edit, the New link and the DetailsView control is not visible. What is considered best practices for Inserting the 1st record using a same page Gridview / DetailsView combination?
I'm trying to add an DropDownList to a DetailsView by code, because i'm writing a solution that let's the user select an table and view your records and edit them, some of theese tables, have a foreign key column and the user must have to select some item in the list.
Below is my sample code:
[Code]....
the code above is working correctly, when the user click in the buttons New or Edit , the DetailsView opens correctly, showing the DropDownlist, but when the user click in the buttons update or insert , an error occurs, the viewState cannot be loaded:
Failed to load viewstate. The control tree which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree used to save viewstate during the previous request. For example, when controls are added dynamically, the controls added during a post must match the type and position of the controls added during the initial request.
I've tried to implement two different solutions that use either and HttpModule or and HttpHandler to do URLRewriting for me. These work great on IIS 7 within my local development environment in Integrated and Classic modes. Currently the production server is running IIS 6.0 on a shared hosting environment. It appears that the request at least hits both the Module and Handler as the URL above redirect to the particular friendly url, but it doesn't redirect and hit hte Module or Handler again. Instead I get a 404 error for the friendly URL.
I have a listview in a page and I use a DataPager to do the paging. Each time the user clicks a page's number, the page does a postback and it shows the next "x" items. My problem is that I rewrite the url with isapi rewrite and when the user is being redirected to the second, third etc page of items the friendly url is being replaced by the non-friendly url of the page.
I am trying to arrange the information from a SQL record into a 3 column by 3 row table to fit the form presentation that I want. I have placed on the page 3X3 table and then tried to place a detailsview in the first cell for the first picture called P1dv.
I have place a detailsview in the last cell that would control the paging of information called Controldv. I need to fiqure out how to link P1dv paging to Controldv page action. I am using visual web dev. 2005. I am not updating or editing these are read only views.
example of what i need the form output to look like:
But I´m trying to do that programmatically, not with the sqldatasource. So I wrote the method that binds data to Detailsview and I call it in the page_load. The problem is that I have to click two times on the select button to view the detailsview. The first time I click on the select button nothing happens.
I have a gridview with a Select button. Clicking the Select button for a particular item, I need its full details displayed in DetailsView. how I can bind to DetailsView? Here is what I have so far.
I was having issues with a gridview and CSS so I posted my question here and received a wonderful answer which lead me to implementing CSS Friendly Adapters for all of my gridviews.I have a table nested in the EditItemTemplate that holds the textbox and the button for a calendar control where I want them, it inherits the CSS applied from the CSS Friendly Adapters. I don't want it to change the CSS so I have changed the CSS inline, with no success. More importantly...
I also have a Ajax calendarExtender control to change the date for that field. When the popup is displayed the table in which the calendar is shown in also inherits the CSS Friendly Adapters code. I have tried fixing this by creating a external css sheet for the calendarExtender's cssClass property and a blending of CSS occurs where the items not specified by the Friendly Adapter Code are set correctly by the calendar.css file that I created.Is there anything that I can do to force the tables inside of the gridview to ignore the inherited Friendly Adapter Code?
I have an asp.net web application that queries a database with a SELECT query in a stored procedure. If the server returns an error, I want to display a friendly "sorry, there was a problem with your search" type message.
Should I handle this with a custom error page, and a redirect to that page in web.config? Or can put some text in a Label Control and set its property to visible if there are errors? I've seen the latter done with a Try/Catch arrangement in the code behind, but not sure if I can do that here. What would you recommend?
My code behind is below for the page that displays the search results:
I would like to find controls in the detailsview control placed in the EmptyData Template of the gridview. I am trying to create Insert new record for the gridview control.
1. If there are existing records in the table - works fine and sets my two values: I placed Detailsview and Insert Button in the footer of the gridview. I needed to set the values of two fields. When I click on the Insert button it saves new record and sets the field with the value (code attached - works fine). I also have a popup extender that opens detailsview - this works just fine.
2, If ther are not records in the table - saves record but cannot find and set controls on the detailsview Same thing setup in the EmptyData Template. The record is saved but I cannot Find and set the field value on the control.
1. Link button (on click) in the gridview footer (works fine)
I've created a Dynamic Data project with an Entity Framework model. It works nicely. But, right now it shows all my database tables with the db column names - which aren't always the most friendly (e.g. address_line_1). How can I got about giving these more friendly column titles that will display to the end user?
First of all, I'm relatively new to asp.net (3.5) and all of its controls. What I'm trying to do is to split up a detailsview. I have a submission form containing quite a lot of fields that are supposed to be filled out by the user. In my design I have a tabstrip with headlines about the different sections of the form. For example:
Tab1: Personal Info Tab2: Info about your car Tab3: Contact info
I have tested to add a new "user" via a DetailsView and it works. But what I want to do is to split up the contents within the <Field> tags In the DetailsView In different div classes (using css and javascript to hide/show the right tab contents). But when I try to do this Visual Studio says that characters like <p> and others aren't allowed within the Field tags, which makes sense. Is there any control to use for these kinds of situations?
getting error saying Operator '<' can't be applied to operands of type.TableCell' and int What am I missing? How does this differ from a GridView container?
What I'm trynna do is to input value in the TextBox1, and pass the string value to the label when button "ChangeText" is clicked.Pretty straightforward.
and how to use both of those checkbox (for example: when i click update in my detailsview, if the checkbox is checked will return 1 and if unchecked will return 0 and insert that value to database)
I have a detailsview which is used to input data into an SQL database. Some of the fields contain drop down menus which are populated from the database.
I also have a form that allows the user to select mutiple values from a listbox (populated from an sql database) by moving the required items from one list box containing all the available items into a second one containing the selected items. There is also a text box which is used to filter on the available items. When this is passed through to a stored procedure to be put into the database, it is passed as a comma delimited string containing all the selected values.
This works fine on a separate form, however I would like to include it in one of the fields of the detailsview. This creates a BC30451: Name 'ListBox1' is not declared error. I have looked for hours on the internet to try and resolve this but cannot find what I need for how to declare the list for use within the detailsview.
Here is the code for both the working multiselect form and the code for when I have tried to integrate it into the detailsview:
i have a problem with detailsview as below, when user click on btnEdit, it will call detailsview.changemode(edit) and then allow user to enter data into the textbox, after that user will click on btnsave and then to read the value from txtname and process the value. my question is how do i get the value from txtname? i dont want to use any datasource component and i have tried call the DetailsView1.FindControl("txtname") and it returned txtbox with empty text.
What I'm trying to do is similar to the following within the gridview RowDataBound event, only with a detailsview:
DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "TotalPayment")
I created a DataBound event for the detailsview, and it doesnt recognize e.row. I've looked at some reference materials which tell me to use DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "TotalPayment") but then it doesnt recognize container.
I have Master - Details relationship between GridView & DetailsView controls bound. So each time the GridView's index is changed the DetailsView image is updated.
However, after I fire Response.Redirect("~/theSamePage.aspx"), the DetailsView data does not get displayed.
All binding script is withing <asp> tags, provided declaratively on .aspx page
