I have a strange issue with the FormView. After working through some issues getting the update to work (as this is my first experience with FormViews) I now have a new issue. After I perform an update, and the FormView updates and returns to read mode, if I hit F5 (refresh) the FormView performs another update to the datasource, despite the fact it is read-only mode and none of the fields on the screen are editable.
I would think that a refresh in read mode for the FormView after an edit would simply refresh the data from the database, not perform another update. Again, the FormView is in Read Only Mode, but a refresh is creating another Update event (which I can debug and see if I break in the ItemUpdating event). This only happens after I perform an edit, not when the page initially loads.
I have created a simple dataset with my ObjcetDataSource to my SQL table named Invoices and a new FormView. My form inserts are working 100% correctly, however after some testing i noticed the insert happens again if i hit the refresh button on my browser after an initial insert. I am currently submitting the form back to itself with a success/fail message returned on the page so that the user can keep inserting more records if they choose. This is done in my Inserted behaviour.
In my ObjectDataSource_Inserting code i am setting the values of a date prior to my insert. How do i stop a second INSERT from happening when the user refreshes the browser? I thought it was what IsPostBack was used for? Here is my code:
I have a formview tied to a gridview. The formview shows the data for the row selected in the gridview. The formview is invisible by default , default mode is readonly and becomes visible only on Selecting a row in the gridview. I make it visible in the SelectedIndexchanged event of the gridview. There are Insert and update buttons present outside the formview which perform the insert and update using code-behind. The code is below.
AFter an insert or update, the formview makes invisible again. I want to show the formview with the newly inserted or updated row in Read-only mode. How do I do this?
protected void gvEvent_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (gvEvent.SelectedIndex
Am not sure how to go about this... but i have two ddls on a formview which are not related but just insert and update into each other... Both are binded to the objectdata source....
Am issue just came up and i am looking for the simplest way on code behind that would automatically post a constant value (selecteditem) once the first ddl clicks on 1 or 2....
Example is
lst DDL Second ddl
ABC bko
DWC loct
qwe jjjj
Now when ABC is clicked... it should automatically bring out JJJ on the second ddl.... I just want something i can do on code behind.
I am *VERY* new to ASP.net. This may seem simple to you all, but I'm really lost. I have a small sized page with three text boxes (part of the InsertItemTemplate) of a formview, and a slightly modified link the system generated to submit the data to be inserted in the database:
[Code]....
If this page is run, it inserts the data into the database fine, clears the form and sits there. I want it to return a simple "Thank you" page in a window of the same size, with a Close Window buttom at the bottom to close the window:
[Code]....
When I set the postbackurl property on the first page, everything appears to work, except the write is never done to the database. If I remove the postback, it works as it did previously.
I have a page that is using the value from a textbox on a previous page to populate a formview. When I generate the Insert, Update and Delete Statements in Web Developer the edit brings up a blank page and the insert and delete don't work. It works if I just create the formview on a page and hardcode the value in the select statement then the Edit/Delete and Insert works.
I have a typical gridview/formview master control setup. When I try to update or insert I don't get any errors but it also doesn't work. When I try to insert data all I get are null values and when I update, none of the values are updated. The formview looks like its working, but just doesn't. The primary key is an identity and it auto-increments by one.
I have a listbox inside a formview in a details page(master/details). The values for the listbox will come from a lookup table and when the user select one or more values it should be inserted in a table. The process sould be like the following:
The user will select one or multiple values and click on a Select button. Then a label should show the selected values. Then the user will click on the Insert button in the formview to insert it in the database.
I am using an ObjectDataSource in my FormView for INSERT.
Data inserts correctly to my backend SQL table, however as i am posting back a success/fail message to the same page, i have noticed that after a successful INSERT if it hit the Refresh button the INSERT is doubled up.
How can i stop a user pressing the Refresh button and doubling the INSERT?
Is there a setting somewhere or can i stop this programmatically within my ObjectDataSource_Inserting method perhaps?
I wonder if there is a clevcer way of setting the correct page of a DetailsView after inserting new data? I have a DetailsView bound to a LinqDataSoure. Now, if I use this DetailsView to insert new data, everything works fine, except the fact that the DetailsView switches back to the "old" page index after leaving InsertMode.
This is somehow understandable, because it can't know which index the new entry will have, but unfortunately neither do I. So I was looking to the LinqDataSource_Inserted event where I can get the new Entry, but because the DetailsView.SelectedValue is read only, I can't just set it to the new entry. So. I might have to use the PageIndex property, but then I would need to know the index of the new Item, which I don't have either.
So, my only idea know is to store some information from the new entry, wait until everythings bound again, loop through the DetailsView to find my new entry an set it's index for PageIndex. But also here I have two problems:
1) The new entry (e.Result from LinqDataSource_Inserted) has not yet filled it's primary key, as this is of course created in the DB, so it's very difficult to identify the new entry properly 2) I don't know how to access each DetailsView page information without actually making it the active page.
So, my question, is there a clever way of doing this? In the past, I've been using SqlDataSource. Although the problem is basically the same, I could solve the two major problems by 1) Insert with Stored procedure which gives the new primary key back and 2) run through
I'm trying to update my gridview after inserting data but insert function cannot handle. I don't know what i am doing wrong. Functions are below. waiting for your comments.
So, I'm trying to use form view in insert mode on a dedicated aspx page. So when a user clicks "Add New" from the main GridView page, it will take the user to an Insert.aspx page that will be in Insert mode ready to collect information.
Here's what I have so far, and all I get is a blank page when I try to run it.
I have a FormView at the very bottom of the page in insert/edit mode. When I click insert/update button, the whole page reload and the pointer does not keep within the Formview but go to the very top of the page far away from the desired FormView.
What can I do here to prevent cursor going outside the Formview ? Is it I can use update panel ? What and where I should use the tags ? Or there are other better way ?
This is the sqlDateTime overflow problem again. Background. As I'm sure you know dates must be between 1/1/1753 and 12/31/2999. If you have an empty date field, it throws and exception. So I created a function (below) that solve the problem when attempting to update or insert a record with a date field. Works great.
Public Shared Function MakeDateField(ByVal pasDate As String) As Nullable(Of DateTime)
If IsDate(pasDate) Then Try If pasDate <= System.DateTime.MinValue Then Return Nothing Else Return CType(pasDate, DateTime) End If Catch ex As NullReferenceException Return Nothing End Try Else Return Nothing End If End Function
So I thought about using a time field. I have the field, have the validator in place and then attempted to test the page. It resulted in my least favorite error message "sqlDateTime overflow".
I can think of several workarounds like adding a date or a fixed date to the time field, or converting it to a string. Each of these is problematic.
IS THERE A BETTER WAY TO UPDATE/INSERT TIME FIELDS.
How to automatically refresh a page after some time interval?
In my website, I want to automatically refresh the page data(from database) after some time interval. I dont want to use any button click event to update the page data.
I have a gridview on Contacts.aspx. From this page, I want an "Add New Contact" ImageButton to open the Formview in the ContactDetails.aspx page in Insert mode....
I have a gridview linked to a formview both in an update panel, my triggers are GridView SelectedIndex, and FormView ItemDeleted, ItemUpdated, ItemInserted, and ModeChanged;however, when I insert, or delete in the Formview the Gridview does not update, even though the update panel shows the progress update, and now shows the new record. How do I get the Gridview to update when the panel is updated?
I use GridView & FormView to update a record. but when I click the "save" button, throw an except : FormView must be in the insert mode to insert a record. The record has been updated success, and I didn't change the mode of the FormView, how this error comes?
If I make a change to my database (let's say I add a column to a table), is there any magical buttons that I can click to have my Linq to SQL model update to reflect the changes to my table? I had to create two additional columns yesterday, and both times I found myself destroying and then recreating the Linq model.
