Forms Data Controls :: Gridview - Add Hyperlinks To Cells Programmatically?
Mar 8, 2011
we're creating a GridView to display news articles programmatically (not using a SQL database).
We can create & display the GridView, but are having a devil of the time to get the hyperlinks in SetupGrid() attached to the titles
of the articles in the GridView. Below is our .aspx code and .vb code of how we create the GridView. Any ideas on what we should do to get the hyperlinks array of strHyperlinks() in SetupGrid() to be applied to the titles in column 1 of the GridView?
I am trying to get a hyperlink to show up in each field of the "Title" column in the gridview below, but it doesn't render as a hyperlink:
ID Title City State
115779 <a href=job_details.aspx?jobID=115779>Online Advertising Inventory / Yield Manager (773044)</a> Washington DC 115801 <a href=job_details.aspx?jobID=115801>Administrative Assistant (778554)</a> Washington DC 115840 <a href=job_details.aspx?jobID=115840>20769 Deal Leads</a> Washington DC
I have a gridview with a hyperlink control that allows the user to save pages to it (www.google.ca, asp.net, etc). Unfortunately it always adds the server name to the beginning of their link. [URL] I was wondering is there any way to change that within the control. or should I have it pass a query string to a url handler that will response.redirect them to their actual page?
In the following code i have to continuing showing the rows of the gridview as links. For example: the user will click on a customer and will see more detailed information.
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { //List<Customer> customersresult = new List<Customer>(); does not match the type here CustomerWebServiceClient.Customer[] cust; CustomerWebServiceClient.CustomerWebService client = new CustomerWebServiceClient.CustomerWebService(); cust = client.GetCustomerContract(TextBox1.Text); //coming across now.. //if (cust.va) validate if there is data GridView1.DataSource = cust; GridView1.DataBind(); } // this is showing the gridview with the data coming. What would be next steps to show the rows as hyperlinks.
I need a GridView with 6 columns, one of which ("ItemID") is a HyperLink who's URL and text is determined from the C# code as I will get that data from an SQL database
INITIALLY, what I wanted to do, which would have been easy as pie, is:
[Code]....
HOWEVER, this does not work because every row in the Item ID column is filled with "System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink". Apparently, this is what the HyperLink's toString() method returns. Apparently, you can't just throw a HyperLink into a DataRow and call it a day. I need to know how to make this ItemID column into such a HyperLink. It doesn't necessarily HAVE to be a HyperLink control, it just has to be able to call my javascript function on the aspx page, "popUp(URL)"
To give you a visualization of what I'm trying to achieve: this is a change log for an inventory system. The ItemID column indicates what item was altered. However, simply just having a number there doesn't say much, so I'm trying to create a link with the text, for example, "42 (motherboard x)". In other words reader["ItemID"] + " (" + reader["Description"] + ")", and that link will run a javascript function I have called popUp(URL) which takes a URL and opens it in a new window of specific size and location, to view that item's details.
I've tried various other methods such as disabling AutoGenerateColumns and manually create a HyperLinkField, but to no avail, because I couldn't get it to run my javascript function that way.
I have a stored procedure (For Eg: sp_GetAvlData) that accepts a number of parameters, 3 of which are TimeFrom, TimeTo (as varchar) and TimeInterval (as int), formulates a Dynamic query and executes itself. So for instance, if I call the proc as follows:
[code]....
dtAvl is the datatable containing the results of my stored procedure.
The next step for me is to make each of the cells (except the cells in the first column) as a Hyperlink so that when clicked upon a cell, it populates 2 textboxes with the selected Timeslot and Name or ID (ID field is not displayed in Gridview). The textboxes are located on the same page but outside of the Gridview control.
The Challenge that I'm facing out here are:
1) As you can see, the field names being generated are not fixed and I have no control over them.
2) Because the field names are not fixed I'm not sure I can implement this using the Templatefields or BoundFields of Gridview.
Is there any way to achieve the Hyperlinking of these cells within the Gridview?
I have a requirement to create multiple hyperlinks dynamically in a single GridView Column. The number of hyperlinks are not not known in advance and will depend on the results brought up by a query. How do I create the same?
i have a gridview in my website and i want to merge two cell of that in same column but in different row , for example i have a data about tours in an agency , now i define a tour that has two hotel with difference grade , i want tow show my grid view in this manner :
I have a gridview where I placed several item templates with text boxes in them. I want to enter a number in the text boxes and have the total displayed in the footer.
The last footer template is where I want to display the total. I've placed a label there.
I'm working on a project in vb.net framework 2.0 and have a column that has server names. I have the accessdb sql setup to order by the db, what I would like to do is to have it look like the following picture below. I'm pretty stumped on how to do it as the methods I've found online haven't worked so well. Also just a small tid-bit the gridview is bound to a ddl which selects the application and the gridview refreshes with server data. Country would be server name and state would be the environment.
How to merge gridview columns in a grid when the items in the grid are duplicate. i mean in one row four columns are there i need to merge the columns which are repeating
eg: Mango Mango Mango Apple
i want like: Mango Apple
i the columns mango is getting repeated i need to merge it into one
specially VB code behind pages.I am writing an app with a colleague and I am stuck on something.he app is a holiday booking calendar. I have a gridview that shows the total number of days booked for each month of the year. When you click the cell for say January another gridview is populated below showing each day of january.My problem is that I want to change the formatting of the cells in the second gridview depending upon if any of the cells have a 1 or a 0.
I have a gridview that has both a select and an update statement. One of the cells is a date cell, and the other is for numerics only. Is there a way I can do this? At the moment, anything can be keyed into the cells and this results in an error as my update stored procedure expects a date value and a numeric value respectively.
I have a GridView known as GV_R001 with IssueType, ActID, IssueID cells. I want to Merge the similar IssueType cell accordingly. How do i merge and also sort the IssueType cell accordingly. The following is my codes:
Protected Sub GV_R001_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles GV_R001.DataBound For rowIndex As Integer = GV_R001.Rows.Count - 2 To 0 Step -1 Dim gvRow As GridViewRow = GV_R001.Rows(rowIndex) Dim gvPreviousRow As GridViewRow = GV_R001.Rows(rowIndex + 1) Dim cellCount As Integer = 0 If gvRow.Cells(cellCount).Text = gvPreviousRow.Cells(cellCount).Text Then If gvPreviousRow.Cells(cellCount).RowSpan < 2 Then gvRow.Cells(cellCount).RowSpan = 2 Else gvRow.Cells(cellCount).RowSpan = gvPreviousRow.Cells(cellCount).RowSpan + 1 End If gvPreviousRow.Cells(cellCount).Visible = False End If Next End Sub
Apart from that, after sorting i want to calculate the amount of IssueID are in a particular IssueType and display in a cell called "Total". Is it possible to do so? By the way, I am using Web Developer 2008, VB.net.
I have a Gridview with some cells in numbers while in some cell they could be null without numbers. I need to modify it such that the numbers in the Gridview are in these formats:-
(a) If it is 12345.333 becomes 12,345
(b) If it is blank, I wish the cells to display 0
This is the code I am using to achieve (a), but when it comes to blank, it returns error (I believe my code below failed to provide blank cases but I dunno how. So what should be the code to do (b) above ?
For i As Integer = 1 To N e.Row.Cells(i).Text = String.Format("{0:#,##0}", Convert.ToDouble(e.Row.Cells(i).Text))Next
I'm looking for a technique to edit a whole column (vertical) instead of a row (horizontal).Suppose i have 10 rows en 5 columns (like in Excel), and i want to edit all digits from different students (rows) for test number 3 (column).
