I am binding a string to a datagrid.
I want to add text around the values coming up on the datagrid..
for example
DataGrid1.DataSource = mystring;
DataGrid1.DataBind();
is the current code
but i'd like
DataGrid1.DataSource = mystring;
DataGrid1.DataBind("the result is: "mystring". thanks for looking");
I have started creating a DAL and have successfully bound my adaptor and the query within the adaptor to a gridview.
In lots of the intranet type apps I code in regular ASP for myself I often have a few columns with little icons in that do various things for that rows identity, such as drill down to more details, overlay a graph, text the person via an ajax call, send em an email via ajax and so on.
I think Ive got the hang of styling elements of each row depending on the data but Im completely at a loss as how to add a column which would have an icon whos url link properties would be dependant on the data.
EG
ROW1 | Name | Email Address | ICONFOR EMAIL(with a querystring id matching the row id) | ICON FOR MORE DETAILS (with a querystring id matching the row id)
I realise I am probably looking at this the wrong way but its difficult when you are almost on autopilot doing these things in classic ASP.
I need a form that displays three columns drawn directly from a database (no problems here) as well as two fields that require some complex calculations. Not only am I lost as to how to incorporate the calculations into the control, I don't know exactly how to write the calculations. I am working in Visual Web Developer 2008 with Vb.NET.
The first of the two fields should take the sum of all payments made by a given customer and divide it by a DailyMembershipRate, returning a DaysPaid variable. It should take this variable and a CustomerSince field for that particular customer and calculate a PaidThrough field.
The second of the two columns similarly requires the DaysPaid variable described above. It should subtract the CustomerSince field from the current date and return the value in days, giving a MembershipDays variable. Finally, it should subtract MembershipDays from the DaysPaid variable, again returning a value in days, and then multiply this by the DailyRate value for a Credit/Deficit field.
I realize this is a lot, but I haven't been able to find any documentation either online or in VWD or ASP.NET texts on this topic. I could really use some fellow user input.
I have a Repeater and an update button inside the repeater
[Code]....
When I run this databound control to wire a javascript function it clears the viewstate and I don't get itemcommands. When I remove the button attributes command it works.
[Code]....
Obviously I can find a more creative way to add the javascript function, but this was the clearest way. Can anyone determine why adding an OnClientClick even in the ItemCreated would cause viewstate to fail?
I'm using a gridview to extract a set of records. I need to add another field to the gridview, which can calculate the difference between a date associated with each record and the current date.
View 6 RepliesI have a datagridview that has a column which displays a ref value from another unbound table, but during an edit of a gridview entry i want a dropdownlistbox to list all the available ref values from the other unbound table source, then to insert the selected value into the bound table
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to add html text to some repeater items during DataBind, but the html text isn't parsed into controls it just displays as text. If I copy the text and just add it to the asp.net page it works fine so I know my syntax is fine. So is there a way to dynamically add more html text during the data-bind phase?
View 4 RepliesI have a datalist control
In it, I have a hyperlink that im binding the url, and the text to from a mysql database
here is my code so far
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server"
NavigateUrl='<%#Bind("topicid") %>' Text='<%# Bind("title") %>'></asp:HyperLink>
Now, the problem is, the field "topicid" returns a number, such as 3. I want to add the following text before it: viewTopic.aspx?id=
So, ideally, i want something like this
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server"
NavigateUrl='<%# "viewTopic.aspx?id=" + Bind("topicid") %>' Text='<%# Bind("title") %>'></asp:HyperLink>
But, when I do it that way, I obviously get an error.
So, is there any way to solve this problem without having to modify the database?
I am trying to add an image overlay of a cell within a data bound gridview cell in ASP.Net (C#). The effect is designed to have a string within the image that is going to sit on top of the image that is pulled from the server.
IE: Database contains path to images. Data grid is pulling these images in based on the ID of the items in question. I need to pull the price from the database and lay it onto an image that is placed over the data bound image cell.
SQL Statement gets results.
Results contains path to image for items.
Items are sometimes on sale, so a special overlay is needed.
Overlay will have a varying price overlaying it.
I tried to break it down into easy portions. I am not sure if I am over thinking things or not but I can't find a feasible way to do this. The data is converted to a table due to the data grid control in ASP.Net, and there isn't any way to determine the IDs after the table is created.
I have a databound dropdown list (ASP.net). I want the page to load with a certain item as the selected item.
I am not adding a blank first row (thats not what i need)I find that I can get this to work with "AppendDataBoundItems" to true, but the side-effect is that I have all the items listed twice.
I want to render something like this (with ASP.Net Controls in the codebehind):
<ul>
<li class="first"><h1>This is a caption</h1></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo1</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo2</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo3</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo4</a></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class="first"><h1>This is a another caption</h1></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo5</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo6</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo7</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo8</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo9</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo10</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="" target="_self">Foo11</a></li>
</ul>
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 have a textbox where data will be entered by user without any postback. I need to add the data to a variable or any hidden variable or i need to store data from all the controls on th epage in which user entered to a variable this controls in which user enters the data becomes visible on button click i mean a post back happen...
View 1 Repliesi have a method to check if a row contains a certain time. the row is databound to the grid. how do i refrence this row?
row in asp.net
<asp:BoundField DataField="Time" HeaderText="Time"
SortExpression="Time" Visible="False" />
i thought findControl would work but i didnt get much luck, something like string previous = ((TextBox)r.FindControl("Time")).Text;
i already have a DataList, and i get any information from the rows i need by adding code such as:
[code]....
Well what i am doing there is using the values from the items that the DataList has obtained from the rows, now, what i need to do is EXACTLY the same, but for the FormView, i realised that this code does not work for the FormView, but only DataList control.
give me the code for doing exactly as shown, but for the FormView control.
I have a simple problem. What i wish to do is to read the data bound item [Code]....
and if the output = 0 then rather than display the 0 I would like to display a message such as Not Available.
Can anyone provide a solution?
i have to a grid view and the datasource for it is a table coming from the database the table containing sequence numbers for example if the sequence number is 1 then i want to add a row just above this saying it is the start , the entire row should give some information .
i tried to find related thing but no luck, waiting for some replies to move further
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?
[Code]....
I use a repeater on my website.My code for this example is
<ItemTemplate> Item: <%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Col")%><br> </ItemTemplate>
i am developing a tree view component which should be data driven and amendable instead default layout provided by .net can we change that proper hierarchial structure like organization chart is there any chance to provide with an hyperlink to redirect other page or content view control below to display the content related to it.
i am trying to use silverlight with c#.
I've got a repeater bound to a datasource through the code behind. Everything is working fine so far except for this, I'm trying to concactenate a bound field as the id on a query string to an image handler:
<asp:Image ID="Image4" runat="server" BorderColor="#E5E5E5" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px"
Height="100px" Width="100px" ImageUrl="'~/ImageHandler4.ashx?Id=+'<%# Bind("ImageID")%>'"/>
What am I doing wrong?
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?
I am facing certain problems with the data formatting in GridView when the data is bound dynamically to it.
I have a DateTime column and want to only show Date from it and not the time.
Another Decimal type column which accepts decimal upto 4 places, I want to show decimal upto the places defined in the particular value (don't know how to put it in the correct way, but here is an example of what I want).
i.e.
1.0000 should be displayed as 1 after the databound in the gridview.
Similarly,
2.3400 --> 2.34
1.0050 --> 1.005
1.1000 --> 1.1
im building a simple message messenger web application, i currently have a column in my database dedicated to the status of a message. Its bound to the third column in a datagrid.
After converting the column to a TemplateField and using a Label to fetch the data how do i change the text from the database to a small message, e.g. if the data in the database (as an interger) is 0. how do i change the interger to a string to display "UnRead". Do i need to do this during the databinding call or after the grid has been databound?
I know it would be easier to use a boolean and checkbox control but the interger column represents more values than true or false.
I have 2 pages (let's say one is a.aspx and the other one is b.aspx). In the b.aspx, there is a nested listview control (let's say outer listview and inner listview).Therefore, there is an event on databound for the outer listview. so basically, the event will programmatically bind the datasource for the inner listview.
Now, in a.aspx there is a button to open a new window (with unique window name) b.aspx. The very first time click on the button, a.aspx opens a new window for b.aspx without triggering the databound event. However, the second click and so on will trigger the databound event which is causing an error because there is no data yet in the outer listview.My question is, what could have possibly triggered the databound event while there is no data in the listview?
In my asp.net web page i have a dropdown box. Say like i have to bind EmployeeName to this dropdown box to show up as items.
I am using a dataTable to bind to this grid by having two columns in DataTable (EmployeeId and EmployeeName). But i am only binding the EmployeeName to the dropdown list box.
In the UI, after the user selects an Employee, I need to pass that employee's id to a function. Is there any way, i can directly pass the underlying data (EmployeeID in the DataTable attached to this dropdown), when the user selects the EmployeeName from the dropdown. Or i will have to make a roundtrip to the database and get the selected Employee's Id and then pass it to the function.
