Forms Data Controls :: Datalist - Unbound Label Assigning Text In Code Behind
May 20, 2010
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 Datalist and when a button is clicked I would like to send the values of the fields to a new page to fill some text boxes. What is the best way to do this. I had thought that since the DataList had itemtemplates that were labels I could reference them like regular labels ( str = Label1.text ). That isn't working.I was just going to send the values through a query string. Which I have an example of that, unless there is a better way.
I want to select all the values from a table in my database and then put each value in order into labels that are on the asp page.
I can Select all the values from that database fine but I am rather stuck as how to put the values into the individual labels? Here is the code I have connecting to my database.

How can I put the DateTime value into Label1 and the Decription into Label2??
I have had a nose about but can't seem to find the information I need.
I have a very simple FormView that has several fields on it. There is a field that either returns a "1" or "0" based on conditions in the database. If the value is "1", I want to leave the label control as is (normal font, in black). However, if the value is "0" I want to change the font to bold and change the forecolor to red. Simple, right?
I am able to change the font-bold property using the code below, but if I use the code to attempt to change the font color, I get the following error message for this line:
An exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in App_Web_hoge3m1x.dll but was not handled in user code
Additional information: Specified cast is not valid.
i have datalist in my page and I have a table in my Data base that keep some Discription about product i bind this discription to my datalist my data list width is 150PX but my description that i bind from my database are  long that can not getting there  i want my description text show in my datalist like this :
EX:
Mega Mall
In this Mall we have many store that …
Image
see second row this is description row that i bind i want in this row show my text and if my text be longer than my datalist width it doesnt show the continue of my text it show this  (...)
I have Template fields configured for Gridview. The gridview is using an objectdatabsource to bind itself. I have the gridview configured to use Templatefields which then contain tables to display the information. This works fine.
My question is, is it possible to change the text of the label if certain criteria is reached. If "NumberOfDwellings" is 1 then change the label to read, "1 Dwelling". Where-as if NumberOfDwellings has more than one then it's "3 Dwellings".
I need to get the text value of a label which is binding a field insiede a datalist. I can get the value by clicking a button but I need to get this value on page load so that I can make it page.title. here is how I am getting it by clicking a button (also button is inside the datalist);

Here is my page code;

So how can I get this value in page load event. I tried some way but didn't work.
I am using one datalist control for uploading multiple images.I hv used one Asp:FileUplaod Control and one button in one itemtemplate.I am using reqired field validator and regular expression validator for file upload cntrl I am assigning validation group for both of them on ItemDataBound event of my datalist so that each upload cntrl hv same validaton group as required field and regular expression validator.Now what i want to do is - i want to show my error message in validation summary which is right at the top of the page.I want one know how to write javascript that will assign validation group of my control in datalist on which i click ?
I use Visual Web Developer 2008 Express.I have Label1 in a DataList ItemTemplate. I wish to use a button to get the text from that label and add it to text in TextBox1 which is elsewhere on the page.I know how to do this from a standard label on a ASP.NET web page but cannot work out how to get the text from a label inside a DataList ItemTemplate.
HTML Code: Protected Sub submit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles submit.Click TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & " " & DataList1.ItemTemplates.ItemTemplate.Label2.Text End Sub I thought that because “ DataList1.ItemTemplates.ItemTemplate.Label2 - System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label “ - is what is written in the properties window header when I select the label in the DataList template.
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.
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;
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.
aspects of some controls in Code Behind (VB) with controls inside a datalist and/or repeater. I have read a lot of stuff on using some tricks but none seem to work so far. I am new to ASP.net so some of the explanations are too cryptic as well. Below is a section of code that I am trying to change. This example is attempting to make the label visible if the dataitem is true and hidden if false. No matter what I seem to do I cann't reference this label to change. I also want to change the text on some other controls in this dataitem if the returned value is a certain value.
I created a new project in VS2010. It automaticly creates masterpages and other stuff.
In the login page i create a connection with my local database. To test my login-routine i want to change te text of a label.
I wanna do this with behind code (C#).
But i continue get errors that the refered label doesn't exist: Error 1 The name 'Labeltest1' does not exist in the current context l:DocumentenVisual Studio 2010WebSitesWebSite1AccountLogin.aspx.cs 46 13 l:...WebSite1
This code returns MdaID and StateID, I want to assign them in this manner:
MdaIDLabel.Text = MdaID and StateIDLabel.Text = StateID, but I am not sure how to separate the two values and then to assign them as I have indicated above. Since my function has a "void" return -
MdaIDLabel.Text = GetMdaState({0}, 64114);
StateIDLabel.Text = GetMdaState({1}, 64114); - will not satisfy the requirement.
I am working with VS 2008 VWD, .NET 3.5 SP1, C#, SQL Server 2008 Express
