I am designing a forums website and i have prepared the posts page for it by a listview. I want to add an edit button for the users to edit their posts. How can i show the edit button only on their posts.
View 20 RepliesThis is probably a dumb question, but I have to ask because I spend so much time editing my formviews and listviews. Is there a way to edit the default template setup for these controls, in the code or somewhere? When you drag them over you get the default text with textbox column names; then I spend over 30 mins editing each to look the way I want it to.
I know I can create standard templates for WebForms and save them as Exported Templates.
And is it possible to edit the default control when you drag them on to the page, to list certain attributes automatically. example (validation controls you always have to add ControltoValidate I would like to drag mine onto the page and it say controltovalidate="" and then all I do is fill in the blank. Intellisense is fine, but sometimes you get brain freeze after hours of web design and forget the needed attribute and you have all to go through all of the errors and mistakes.
The ultimate would be, to drag a FormView Control and when you Refresh the Schema, you get textboxes, label controls instead of text for column name, and divs for forms, and Image Buttons , I am sure there is an XML file that runs the code that you can edit or something.
OR
ASP Developers, When you develop the next ServicePack allow us to edit or create default templates to customize the default templates, in VS and VWD.
I'm trying to create a list of items with a listview (ASP.NET VB) and would like to allow a user to use 1 of 2 checkboxes (or radio buttons), to allow them to mark that record as "approve" or "delete", then once they've made all of their selections, they press a button at the bottom to action each of their requests.
So they might select 10 records to delete and 5 to approve, but I want them to run all at the same time, rather than making them edit a field for them all 1 by 1.
I'm also having a bit of trouble identifying a particular record in my codebehind, is the only way to do it through listview1.items then get the index of it, and compare it to the same sql query somehow?
I have made an ASP.NET page with a ListView which binds to a Linq datasource which have inserting, updating and deleting enabled. All very trivial and well designed by MS. It all works very well so far.
Now I add a DropDown control to the page and binds the Linq datasource Where clause to the dropdown using the following code:
[Code]....
Now I can filter the listview based on the DropDown control. It works very well and I can still insert and delete rows in the ListView.
PROBLEM:
However when the DropDown control is used to filter the ListView rows I can no longer use the Editing functionality of the ListView. The row never goes into editing mode when the Edit button is clicked.
When the DropDown is not used for filtering - is in default state - editing works as expected.
I display a bunch of data using a ListView. In the ListView, I insert a CheckBox control that allows the user to select the items he likes. User then clicks a button i.e. button control.I now need to get the data for selected items underlying data. I could use some help with this. Here's what I have so far:

And this is the OnClick event for the button:

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but for some reason I'm not able to maintain the index selected value on the listview that I've created within a user control. In a user control I have added a listview. I have exposed the handler, Datasource and DataKeyName. I have populated the datasource of the listview by using the following:
MYLIstView.aspx.cs - user control

I'm using a listview control to do a survey stuff. Everything is working perfect to present the data questions, to be answered text with the different type of controls radiobuttonlists, checkboxlists, dropdownlists, etc. The admin can modify, create, change questions, answers, etc. on the survey.When it's select, edit, or insert it's easy to find the control inside a listview.However, I'm wondering how to post user's answers back to DB. How to find controls inside the listview to grab the entered data/responses from there using let's say the submit button that is outside of the listview.I believe there should be a way to do it as otherwise why we put radiobuttonlist on a listview that somebody could click it and then we should be able to get that entries. Or I'm too optimistic on this control?
View 2 Replieshow to restrict the other user if one works on the particular record.
i am having a table with the name tblProduct and i used to edit the records from the code behind using my website.
When one user login into the site and search for the particular products and edits the product and at the same time other user log in and try to edit the same product, i need to show the alert message, "the user (username) is already working on this. please wait for a while."
I have a class
public class MyClass
{
public int id {get; set;}
public string name {get; set;}
}
I store objects of type MyClass in list: List<MyClass> listOfObjects {get; set;}
I want user to edit data. To display data I am using ListView control - I am binding listOfObject list to ListView:
<asp:ListView runat="server" ID="ListView1">
<LayoutTemplate>
<table runat="server" id="table1" >[code].....
So far so good, and everything works fine. I see the data in ListView.I do not know how I can edit data in ListView without entering EditMode - I do not have Edit button, I have only textboxes to enter new data.All I want is to bind data edited in textboxes in the opposite direction - into listOfObject list. I have tried many solutions and nothing was working correctly...
I thought that I can read data this way:
var listItems = ListView1.Items.Cast<ListViewDataItem>().Select(a => new MyClass
{
id = ((TextBox)a.FindControl("tb1")).Text,
name = ((TextBox)a.FindControl("tb2")).Text
}).ToList<>();
but with this I get data which were in textbox before editing..., how to make it working(maybe it would be better to use ObjectDataSource?)
i need to get data-bound items from outer listview to display in inner Listview, in this scenario:
[code]....
Where the higlighted text mean the title for outer datasource.
I have a user control which has a Gridview and a listview, I want to make this control generic so that I can just pass the type of the class I want to edit, which would be a linq entity, and then it would automatically do the rest, so far I havent had any success and I was wondering if anybody knows a tutorial or some info about doing this?
View 1 RepliesI used standard drag and drop to put in a ASP ListView with editing enabled. The table is two columns, a GUID primary key, and a text string name. Null is not allowed for either.
When I edit a record (for the name column), I change its value (to a valid value) and press enter, it crashes with a Cannot insert NULL into column named "Name". However, if I do exactly the same, but instead of pressing enter I click update, it works fine.
I am simply trying to change the listView template based on a value in the listview data. I do have this displaying the information correctly. Except when I try to change the item template based on a value in the listview. My code is below ....
View 6 RepliesI have a ListView, I've setup to use an ObjectDataSource, I've created my Layout and Item templates, and I'm able pull and view a list of my data no problem. However I want to add delete capabilities to my
ListView and my reference material tells me to go into the "Configure ListView..." option under the ListView's smart tag, the only problem is I don't have that option, the only three options in my smart tag are "Choose DataSource", "Configure DataSource..." and "Refresh Schema", what am I doing wrong?
I have anested ListView control. I also implemented a jQuery to automatically expand the TextBox control inside of the nested ListView Insert Template. The problem is, when the Textbox expand, the outer ListView control is not; therefore, the Textbox control expands underneath the buttons of the outer listView control. How do I expand the outer ListView control as the nested ListView textbox is automatically expand? One great example is in Facebook where if I add a response comment, it'll automatically push any comments below mine down. If nested Listview control is not the best way to do this, what are my options?
View 8 RepliesDoes anyone have an example for how to create a Dynamically Templated Listview with prefernces page to specify which columns & column order)? Also the listview would also have Edit, delete and insert options if possible. And uses the n-tier approach with Bus Layer and does NOT use LINQ.

If I removed the datapager part, I can manage show/hide the child list view on the button click event. but if I want to use the DataPager with the PreRender event handling, the child listview is not longer shown on button click.
Ok, background first:
The form allows a user to create and edit one estimate.
Each estimate can contain multiple Jobs, which are represented in a ListView.
Each Job can contain multiple Parts, which are contained in a ListView that sits in each item of the Jobs ListView.
A user can add and remove as many Jobs as they want.
A user can add and remove as many Parts to/from each Job as they want.
I have no issues adding to each of these, but I do have a problem removing a single part from a single job.
For a reference, here is one Job in the Jobs ListView on the form:
I want to make sure that no matter what a user does, the part of the form they are working on saves what they have. Removing a row from that Parts ListView is no exception. What I want it to do is save the values in each of those textboxes and then delete the necessary row.
Here's what I have in the codebehind:
[Code]....
The EstimateRow variable I create does not get a value from theListView)HFERID.Parent.FindControl("LVEstimateRow") bit of code. There must be another level of nesting that I'm not accessing correctly, because it can't seem to find that nested ListView.
I have a datakey defined on my outermost ListView. When I click on a linkbutton in a row in this listview, the second listview is displayed. This inner listview has several controls and also a linkbutton. When I click this linkbutton, it gets handled by its own event; linkbutton_click. In this event all the data is collected from the innermost listviews' controls, and sends it to the database. The only thing I need within this event is the datakey from the outermost listview.
View 6 RepliesI'm displaying a bunch of items in a ListView. Each item has a button that the user can click if he/she is not interested in the item. What I want to do is this: if the user clicks the button, I want to remove that item from the list but I don't want to necessarily make a datadabase trip for each and every item the user clicks. I'd rather make one DB trip and take care of all the items user has clicked. However, as the user clicks them, I'd like to remove them from the ListView.
