Forms Data Controls :: Can Set Max-width For Datalist
Mar 5, 2010
I have a datalist repeating its columns horizontally. I would like the datalist to continue to do this until it reaches maximum 500px in width then I would like the datalist to continue on the next row. Is this possible?
I know I can set RepeatColumns but since my columns vary in width it's hard to estimate. I also thought about setting each column to a fixed width like 100px but then I would get lots of whitespace if the columns content is only 30px.
I just wanted to know if there is any way to dynamically set the width of a column inside a table within a datalist based on the length of the text fetched from the database.I am inserting my code.
I have a dropdown list in a gridview field. The DataValueField for the ddl is an 8 digit item code. The text to display through will be quite longer, 40-60 characters because it will combine the item code and item name into a single string. I don't want the dropdownlist field to be that wide though, only what is displayed when the ddl is selected.In Access you can set the width property of the list to display wider than the field itself. Is there that capability in ASP.NET and if so where do I find it?
Is there any way to set the width of a GridView to a pre-determined width?
I have set the width of the gridview and all the columns to a % and then to a number of pixels but it does work. The gridview always sets itself to a width required to display all fields and it goes beyond the resolution of the screen. I would like to contain it to 1024 pixels.
The problem is that i have a search page. Access Database holding the information. I have a Access Datasource on the page with a Datalist to show the data. I need to find a way on setting it up to says "Sorry no results found" when the is no results. i am unsure on how to do this though.
.I am new to asp.net.Is there any way we can limi the width of the gridview in the design mode.
I have to put 15-20 columns on the gridview.When I add columns to gridview the width shoots out of the page and the page design is seems ruined.
i placed it inside the panel and added scrol bars to it. it looks ok when debuggin i.e looks ok in internet explorer but in design mode it ruins the page design.
Am building a Form for out intranet that runs on ASP.NET and C#, it is to be a survey from a SQL database. I have the connections setup can pull informations/Questions from the database. I am having a problem with setting up radio buttons within a datalist, ive never done this and i know they require unque names.
It is to be 4 radio buttons per question where only one can be select, i know how to group just not via a datalist with unique names
I am trying to place a datalist inside datalist. I managed to place a datalist inside gridview but not datalist inside datalist.
Below is the code I am using to bind the datalist into the master gridview, I am trying to change this code in such way it will be right for datalist inside datalist but so far I did not succeed.
i have a datalist . that is contains 7 columns in repeat layout .when i have more from 7 columns , datalist style is normal .but when i have smaller than 7 columns ! data list style is not normal,
because there are some empty columns without specific schema.
How i can make a datalist > when i have 1 columns in my datalist my first layout width be 100% ;
There is two checkbox group which have same datasource, so in both case same checkbox are showing and also same event is firing for both. Here is the event code
Now what i want to do is, while check one checkbox from the 1st checkbox group the same checkbox should be selected from the second checkbox group automatically, also if i deselect one checkbox that should be deselect from both checkbox group.
i Have a dynamic column gridview control in a page hosted in sharepoint. Grid is binded to an XMl and placed inside a Div control. I have set rowstyle-wrap=false and width=100% and overflow of parent Div to auto
There are only 2 columns in grid that can have long size text data (with and without spaces between words).
Problem
1. When grid has lot of columns (say 20), a scrollbar appears on the IE window(as page content is out of windows size); but the two columns that have long text values in them, gets wrapped.
2. when grid has less columns (say 5), no scrollbar appears in IE windows(as page content fits within window).but the same two long text columns, doesn't get wrapped and render in a single line.
Is there any max width of gridview? I want that grid should take all the space (as per content) and show scrollbar; the content should not get wrapped.
how to make grid content not to wrap and expand to any width.
How can I set GridView column width? I would like to show "Edit", "Delete" and "Details" links in the same row. Currently these links are wrapped in three different lines.
I have read all kinds of great things about the new List View (well it was new when 3.5 was introduced). But I have not figured out how to set the width of a column. I have tried setting width in Layout, Item, Alternate, but none seems to affect the width.In related question, is there any way to hide a column?
In a gridview, i have a column which displays an Amount. the amount displayed can be negative / positive. When there is a negative value, suppose for eg, the amount is -15000, in the grid view it showsis there a way where i can increase the width of this particular column.
