Forms Data Controls :: ListView Paging With Disabled ViewState?
Jan 31, 2011
If I disable the ViewState on a ListView, the events raised by it are no longer ired. OnPagePropertiesChanging is the ListView event I've always used in combination with the DataPager to update the ListView to the correct page once a DataPager item is clicked, but since its not being fired, I'm wondering if there are any other options. My ListView is currently in an UpdatePanel, and I'm caching the results that the ListView is being bound to. I could rebind the cached results on the PageLoad, but I can't think of a good way to determine if the PageLoad is being accessed because the DataPager was clicked, or for some other reason, so this doesn't seem like a good idea
I am using a GridView with an ObjectDataSource bound to a DataTable. I am using the GridView for displaying a report, NO editing is being done, just read only, however, I am sorting and paging. I need to turn off ViewState for the GridView to improve performance. After turning off the ViewState I start getting the error messages for both paging and sorting:The GridView 'gridView' fired event Sorting which wasn't handled.This is fine I just need to know how to implement the Sorting and Paging events correctly to leveage the ObjectDataSource. I would preffer not to remove the ObjectDataSource from use, especially if there is a way I can manually wire up the datasource correctly to continue to use the GridView as I had been when ViewState was on.Any help on getting the datasource wired up or a solution for handling the events in the context of the datasource would be great.
I was able to get the formview bound to the objectdatasource, it works great for the first record, but when i select the next record it gives me error below is all my code, if there is something else that i need to post .
I have a shopping cart page (Cart.aspx) that has a button that will (sometimes) post to a third party payment gateway, if payment is necessary. The payment gateway will process the payment and then do a silent post to my website (Order.aspx) so I can update the order status.
Order.aspx always throws an invalid viewstate error, even though viewstate is disabled on the page.
What's happening is that Cart.aspx (which has viewstate enabled) posts to the payment gateway, and the gateway will post it back as part of the silent post. Even though Order.aspx has viewstate disabled and validation disabled, it still tries to validate the __viewstate field it's being given.
I know setting EnableViewState=false will disable the rendering of the __viewstate field, but if another page provides the field, shouldn't it still skip validation? I tried calling ViewState.Clear() on the Page_Init event of Order.aspx, but ViewState is apparently empty. how to get around this? I don't want to disable ViewState on Cart.aspx (in some cases it may be necessary), but I can't figure out how to clear it on Order.aspx.
I have a listview and would like to scroll the ItemTemplatei instead of using paging. I need to freeze the header and InsertTemplate row, and works accross browsers. I've tried the following link:
[URL]
but am having problems getting it to work accross browsers I can get it to work in FF or IE6 but not both.
is there another control rhat's more suitable for this than the ListViiew?
I have a listview that I'm binding programmatically. I am trying to add a simple datapager but the paging is not working. it is because I am binding programmatically.
I'm using a datapager control on my listview to perform paging in it.When paging through the table, I need to perform some validations. When these validations are not successfull, the paging should be cancelledI currently perform the validation in the PagePropertiesChanging event of the ListView, however, the arguments do not provide a Cancel property.
I've got a big problem here with the ListView control. Basically I've got very basic code, yet it seems to break the control completely.
Here's the deal, I got a simple ListView using an ItemTemplate containing a hyperlink. Obviously the hyperlink has to lead somewhere after clicking, so the datakeys enter the scene since I need to hook up a hyperlink containing the Id of the record it's in as a parameter.
Normally this shouldn't be a problem, so in the itemcreated event I look up the link control and add the url using data foud in the datakeys.So far so good, this all works out fine.
Now this contains a number of records, too many to display on one page, so I decided to implement paging by using a DataPager, which is the way to get the ListView to support paging. This didn't work.
After a little tinkering around with the code, I found that if I didn't get any datakeys in the itemcreated event, that it all works fine. However, I need to use the datakeys or I won't be able to hook up a url to the hyperlink.
Basically, that one line of code completely kills paging. Commenting it out immediately sets things right, but that's not an option.
I have a ListView control that makes use of a DataPager. In each row of the ListView there is a text box where the user will enter some notes relevant to that particular record. Then they use the DataPager to navigate to the second page of records. If they then return back to the first page in the ListView the text they entered is gone.
Question: Is there a way (through use of a paging event or databound event maybe?) to retain the textbox values between paging events ?
I would like the user to be able navigate backward or forward and still see the text heshe has entered.
so instead of a datasource control, I have a Data Access class that I'm using to populate the ListviewI added a datapager and everything pretty much works until I hit the first or last button. Then, I get the following error: Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using <pages enableEventValidation="true"/>Also, Something was mentioned about ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation - - couldnt' really find an implementationI tried setting:EnableEventValidation="false", but then, all I got was squirelly interaction with all the numbered links (sometimes having to double click them, etc) - no matter what I tried from there on out, even when I removed the enableEventValidation property altogether.
So I am using EW + Access database to create a page.
This page contains two controls. First control is Dropdownlist which databinds with second control Listview.
This listview has paging on becuse of multiple pages. If I don't use QueryStringField paging works but if I use QueryStringField paging doesn't work and it goes back to first option of Dropdownlist.
I have a repeater which viewstate is disabled, inside i have a textbox and a submit button. Before disabling viewstate i could get the text from the textbox in the submit buttons onClick event. But now it doesnt seem to work.
I dont want to enable viewstate on the repeater as my site get really heavy then. How can I get the value form the textbox when I click the submit button? using .net 3.5
I was wondering if there were any decent tutorials on paging the records in a ListView using a DataPager (Pager Control). I can get it to work with Drag and Drop but I can't seem to find a decent tutorial on doing it programmatically.
I am having an issue with dropdown list when viewstate is disabled. The selectedindexchanged event fires even for the other events on the page.
I am pasting the code bello. To reproduce the issues I am mentioning change the selected value of the dropdownlist and then click any button the selected indexchanged event fires even thought we didnot change the value.
After witnessing some strange behvior I'm confused about ViewState again :/
My understanding was a textbox needed to have "EnableViewState" set to true otherwise when the you postback the fields contents would disappear.
That's not happening, I created a textbox and button and a label.
The button was set to copy contents of text box into the label when I pressed it.
I did and the text was populated into the label and remained in the textbox?
This was inside an UpdatePanel and the page itself has a MasterPage, so that might have something to do with it, but I have about 50 textboxes on this page all with viewstate=true on, so I would really like to know what controls need to have enableViewstate=true in order o function properly.
I have a ASP.NET 4.0 webforms site where I have the MasterPage so it is set to ViewStateMode="Disabled" along with the content placeholders being set similarly.
When I'd view my page I'd still see a ViewState field rendered, I then tried adding the ViewStateMode="Disabled" to the page level also but that didn't change anything.
I tried this in many scenarios and everytime the ViewState is disabled page-wide, NoBot raises an internal NullReferenceException and always returns InvalidBadSession. I suspect that you are referencing the ViewState and it returns a null value which is then used. It's probably a good idea to think about a way that avoids using ViewState.
I want to disable my viewstate in a form because its too bulky (about 1mb per page) due to retrieving some data from database and in other place on the same form I want to access a control from my master page. but when I set viewstate of Listview to false I'll get following error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. what should I do in this situation? veiwstate is too damn bulky and here is what I've written for accessing particular control:
Control cc = Page.Master.FindControl("mainContent").FindControl("ListView1").FindControl("itemPlaceholderContainer"); foreach (Control ListItemctrl in cc.Controls) { Control lblNewsId = ListItemctrl.FindControl("lblNewsID"); if (lblNewsId != null) { Type t = lblNewsId.GetType(); if (t.FullName == "System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label") { string newsID = ((Label)lblNewsId).Text; foreach (Control childCtrl in ListItemctrl.Controls) { CheckBox ctrlCB = childCtrl.FindControl("chkItem") as CheckBox; if (ctrlCB.Checked) { //based on DDLAction we will do the things ;) } if (childCtrl.FindControl("chkItem") != null) break; }//end foreach childCtrl } }//end outer if }//end foreach listItenctrl
I have a CheckboxList that seems to load and do everything right, except for when I do a postback, it will not have the Item.Selected property set. I have viewstate disabled for the entire page.
I load it like so(inside Page_Load on every load): foreach (DataRow service in d.Tables[0].Rows) { [code]...
and MyLabel never has any text added to it. I can verify with the debugger that it does reach the _Click's foreach loop, but no item is ever selected. What could be the cause of this?
Is there a way to use the GridView paging and having the links not use JavaScript. So that when you click on the page number 5 (for example) that link is a hyperlink.
I'd like to implement a custom paging template for my formview that displays numeric paging as well as next/previous buttons. The pre-defined templates only appear to have numeric first last as an option. Can anyone recommend a good article that covers this?
