Forms Data Controls :: Control The Length Of String In Label Which Is In Datalist?
Oct 10, 2010
I have a label control in datalist. When thw word is long, the text of label corrupts the design. Label hasn't a multiline property.I tried different ways . I tried to use textbox like a label but this time I can't give a link to textbox.I tried to use MeasureString() method for the label. But I couldn't do it.
I want label to display limited text say 20 char even the data it retrieve from database may be more than 20 char.. like in gmail,we see message body limited when we click it display whole message..how is that possible...?
i have a search control that is displaying records in a datalist. i want to add a label that shows the result of a sql aggregated function (count) using the code behind against a value that is on each datalist. i cant seem to get that label value (courseID) from the datalist to string so this query can work.here is my code, th3 second is incomplete that is where i'm struggling.
i am using a datalist to show records that are each displayed in a table. i created a button to insert relevant data from a selected record into a new record, but there is a problem i am encountering every time a user selects a record from the datalist search query the value courseID from the first record is inserted instead of the courseID of the selected record.
how can i set the max-width of the label field, and use multiple line if the text length larger than max-width in the templateitem of repeater. i set the width to 10, but can't fix the length.
I am using datalist where i need to assign my label value to each checkboxlist item.I am using datatable to bind my checkboxlist. when I run my code I can see the values in my local window. Actually not displaying in webpage.
I am trying to find the text property of a label that is nested within a DataList within a FormView. The FormView and the DataList have different datasources.
What I actuallt need to do specifially is assign the number of rows in the DataList to the Label in the DataList. I used the code below to find it but it keeps giving me an error about not finding the object;
The Datalist is being databound via an ObjectDataSource and everything here works fine. I have a label which I've added to my datalist and it's unbound to anything. Depending on the message information, I want this unbound label to display a certain phrase but it has to be next to a bound label. But if I try to change the text of the label in the code-behind, VS2k8 reports that the label is not declared. How do I do this?
I have a repeater control which displays text using the following code:
[Code]....
What i am trying to do is, i want to limit the total length of text displayed to, lets say 150 characters, how and wat code can i use to achieve this task
I have a datalist in a page which shows a username in a label from the database (theiruseridLabel)I'm trying to take this username, find its profile.firstname and profile.company name, and then display them as the text in 2 hyperlinks.
i have the code below, but this doesnt work..? can anyone see why? there is no error, just the hyperlinks just show as 'hyperlink' rather than the names i want.
HyperLink hp2 = DataList1.Items[0].FindControl("HyperLink2") as HyperLink; HyperLink hp3 = DataList1.Items[0].FindControl("HyperLink3") as HyperLink; [code]....
