Forms Data Controls :: On Dynamic Control The DropDownList SelectedIndexChanged Event Fires Several Times?
Aug 4, 2010
I ask for a date, on OnTextChanged event i bind data with a SqlDataSource to a dropdownlist and also bind data to a repeater passing the dropdownlist SelectedIndex (i use SqlDataSource too and ControlParameter to link the dropdownlist and the repeater) On my repeater during the ItemDataBound event i create dynamic dropdownlist controls, my code is :
[Code]....
[Code]....
On the Page_load event of my page i bind the data & recreate the control :
[Code]....
Everything works fine, datas are bound and SelectedIndexes are restore on every postback.
The probem occurs when user change different dropdownlists, if he choose to change the 1st dropdownlist the event is fire (normal), after if he modifies another dropdownlist the event is fire twice, if he modifies a 3rd time the event is fire 3 time etc...
Consider the following:The SomeEvent fires as expected when any of the dropdown's selection is changed. However if say DropdownList2 has a selection made then I make a selection with either DropDownList1 or DropdownList3, then SomeEvent fires again. What is causing this behavior and how do I get just a single raising of that event?I suspect that when the viewstate for the dynamcially created dropdownlists is restored and the selection restored, then the event is fired because technically the selected index did change when the control was recreated. The reason I suspect this is that the event fires the for each dropdownlist.
[URL]Initially if I make a selection it will automatically post back and firecboItemsPerPage_SelectedIndexChanged. If I then post back by clicking one of the other buttons on the page, cboItemsPerPage_SelectedIndexChanged will continue to fire, despite the fact that the value has not been changed.I want it to be postback only when selected index is changed, not in every postback
I have one dropdownlist control which populates values to other controls. Means upon selecting item in dropdownlist, related data is populated in other controls. I have also assigned dropdownlist's autopostback to TRUE. Everything is working good as far as dropdown has more than one item.
Whenever there is only one item, selectedindexchanged event is not fired (obviously.....) and eventually the data is not populated to other controls.
How could I get rid of this scenario? I mean which event should I use to avoid this?
At this time, I have just added the first item as something like "---Select Item---" , so when end-user has to select different item and thus the selecteditemindexchanged is fired. no biggie... but just wondering if proper solution is available....
I have a dropdownlist in a repeater and it's firing the SelectedIndexChanged event but in teh event handler I can not get the dataitem associated with the row that the DDL is in. Here is the code:
I want to execute code written in a dropdown selectedindexchanged event from some another user defined function.
For this i m writing:
ddlMyDropDown1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender, e);
It works when use it in page_load (means the code in ddlMyDropDown1_SelectedIndexChanged is executed) but when i write the same line in another function it gives error "The name sender doesnot exists in current context".
Page_load event fires two time in firefox and the same page is working fine in IE. What might be the problem? If it is problem with Autoeventwireup then page_load event must fire two times in IE too. I believe it is not a issue of Autoeventwireup.
I have a LinkButton which fires an OnClick event to update some Labels; however, after the first firing of OnClick, it won't fire again when I click another (or the same) LinkButton which runs the same OnClick event. (It's a list of people, each a LinkButton, and clicking on one brings up their details)
If I leave the page a few minutes, it will work again, almost as if whatever was preventing OnClick firing timed-out. Of course, this won't be any use to the users!
This is my ASP.NET code for the LinkButtons (encapsulated in a DataList):
[Code]....
All the connections work, the data is retrieved, etc, so everything except the OnClick firing works. I've done a search of the internet and the forum, and found this seems to have been a long-standing problem since the first ASP.NET, but there is no solution for ASP.NET 3.5. Does anyone know what causes this, or where I might be going wrong?
I have an ASP.NET DropDownList with AutoPostBack=true and EnableViewState=false. I have a button on the page that does nothing. If I change the selection in the ddl, it posts back , which is expected. If I click the button, the page posts back and the ddl's SelectedIndexChanged fires. Why does it get fired?
I take drop down list control ,from below code i bind data into drop down list from database...
public void load() { try { string sCon = gv.constr; MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection(sCon); con.Open(); String s = "Select * from company"; MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand(s, con);
[Code] ...
I used to done select index change event on drop down list bt it's not working... I want select index value of drop down list item into textbox....wat i do?
protected void drpOrg_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e){ string sCon = gv.constr; MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection(sCon); con.Open(); String s = "Select companyid from companyuser where orgname='"+drpOrg.SelectedValue.ToString()+"'";
I have a form which has some dropdownlists (ListItems "Yes" "No"). I use my form to Enter data & submit to database and use same form to Edit aswell. Like I redirect to this form from another page with a QueryString. If there is a QueryString then SELECT * FROM Table WHERE ID = QueryString's value & fill all the controls in the form like
[URL]
I have certain things to do when DropDownList.SelectedValue = "Yes" so I can use SelectedIndexChanged event handler & AutoPostBack="true" when submitting form for the first time. Now when I edit the information(Data filled from table as stated above). How can i automatically fire all events like DropDownlist SelectedIndexChanged in the page_Load iteslef so that all the things that are supposed to be done when DropDownList.SelectedValue = "Yes". I'm posting my test code for reference to explain what I'm trying to do. This is just the Idea. I have something else to deal with if i can get this stright. I need to dynamically add controls based on the values of DropDownList. please suggest some thing guys.
I have a dropdownlisbox , i am changing the selectedIndex by PageMethod(i.e it will change its value and text on checkbox status). At that time it don't fire the selectedIndexchange method but when i click the button it fires(i.e on postback).
I have a listveiw populated from a List<> in the code behind using the following code:
SubId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString.Get("SubId")); using (JodyCoryDataContext myDataContext = new JodyCoryDataContext()) { var SelectedRings = from jewlery in myDataContext.Jewleries
[Code]....
The page displays the images from the list<> and button ok but nothing happens when i click it other than postback. Furthermore even when i set up a test button wich changes the ListView.selectedindex the ListView.SelectedIndexChanged event never fires even though i can read the selected index and see that it has changed.
I'm guessing that it's something to do with using a list<> from the code behind to populate the listview but i must confess to being completely clueless.
I have placed a dropdown list in Gridview footer, now i want to access the dropdown selected indeex changed event as below. But i'm not able to access the event.
protected void ddlCatg_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { DropDownList ddlCategories = grvExpenses.FooterRow.FindControl("ddlCatg") as DropDownList; DropDownList ddlExpenseSubCategories = grvExpenses.FooterRow.FindControl("ddlSubCatg") as DropDownList; ddlExpenseSubCategories.Items.Clear();
i have a gridview in which i have a 3 column serial no, particular , amount .in particular column i have a feild tution fees . and its shows it amount any integer value( like 5000). now i have a dropdown list outside the grid n if i selct any value from that dropdown list . the tution fees will be change on the event of selecting value of drop down list.( say if i select the value 10 then it tution fee will be 4500 , means 10% discount on tution fees) how it will be done?
I have to create columns dynamically based on a datatable, some field type info and some header texts.
I do that by creating templates.
It created the grid fine and all looks good, however when i click a checkbox and the checkedchanged event fires then something odd happens
The first time i click its fine and i get the expected values in the event
But the second time then the event gets fired with the values from the first time and then again with the values from the checkbox that i actually clicked.. The third time the event gets fired 3 times, first 2 times with the old values and the third with the correct value.
Here is the code:
using System; using System.Collections; using System.Configuration; using System.Data; using System.Linq; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; using System.Web; using System.Web.Security; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts; using System.Xml.Linq;........
The problem is that BindHeaders is called multiple times. I was expecting it to fire only once since a very similar code I used to customize the GridView control to use our mapping utility on the headers works this way.
I have an UpdatePanel with a GridView. This GridView has a template column that is a DropDownList. The problem is that the SelectedIndexChanged event does not fire for the DropDownList. Here is the code:
I understand I need to load my dynmaic control on every postback and preferrably in Page_Init(). But my dyanmic controls are loaded from a dropdownlist selectedindexchanged event handler. Now after any postback, my dynamic controls are gone. How would I force it to load on every postback ?
why the gridview RowDataBound event fires during a select command. I only expect it to run when the gridview is being populated with data. Is there some way to stop it from running when the select command is triggered?
Getting an unexpected event firing dropdownlist's selectedIndex event. When I try to redirect from another page by a linkButton. I just changing dropdownlist selectedIndex.Its okay.But after that When I attempt to redirect to another page,DropDownList's selectedIndex event firing (before linkButton Onclick event).But I am not changing any thing in dropdownlist.Somehow its event firing.
also any page viewstates is default (not off).But loading webcontrols into masterpage Page_Load like this :
[Code]....
if this dropdownlist selectedIndexchanged event firing. Because of I am loading webcontrols each masterpage's PageLoadEvent.
What do you prefer this may the reason of this unexpected event firing ? if so. Do you have a better technic to load controls Just for one time and not each pageLoad.maaybe a caching technic I am missing or shoult I use substution.
I couldnt find the main reason why a dropdownlist selectedIndexchanged event firing without I changed anything on that dropdownlist.
what reasons may cause this problem ? if you say viewstate its turned on defaultly. any other reason you know why ?
