Forms Data Controls :: Style The GridView's Pager?
Nov 12, 2010
I'm trying to style my GridView's pager in such a fashion that when someone clicks on a button in that page, the page's button in the pager will turn yellow, or something.
how can I access the pager's buttons, and style each of them as I wish?
I have GridView control and I would like to make a custom PagerStyle via css. The problem is that I do not know how to change the style (color) of number indicating an active page. If I change the color property it changes a color of all page numbers. I would like to change color for active number and link numbers separately.
How do I add a LinkButton to a GridView pager? The only way I can think of implementing this is to dynamically add the numeric pages in the code behind and add the LinkButton I require in the PagerTemplate. owever in the example illustrated when a user clicks a numeric Page number the numbers disappear and nothing fires. My GridView is in an UpdatePanel.
I want to make an internal rollbar into gridivew so the header and pager bar be fixed. I know some Css solutions but I want more solutions also if there is a good css solution that work with IE7,8 It's good also.
I don't know if its possible in ASP.NET (I'm assuming it is) but I've seen other websites where they have pager settings of grids that are actually linked to the first letter or first couple of letters of a certain field within the gridview. So.. if you have 1000 names... instead of guessing which page the name you're looking for is on, you would just click on "Sa" which would take you automatically to the page that "Sanders" was on. Can anybody tell me how to do that?
I am trying pull a table from a sql datasource which is very wide. And therefore, I want the pager element (i.e Prev and Next) links to be left aligned. But when I try to add the "align attribute, it says not permissible attribute for pager.
Is it even possible to do that or do I have to stick with centered pager?
I have created an out-of-the-box (default everything) ASP.NET Dynamic Data Entities Web Site using VS2010, C# and the .NET Framework 4. Created an ADO.NET Entity Data Model based off a MS SQL 2008 R2 database and registered that EF data model for my dynamic data. Everything works great except for the one change I would like to make. By default, the GridViewPager.ascx file provides the values 5, 10, 15 and 20 in the dropdown for GridView's "Results per page" option. I would like to change that to 10, 20, 30 and 40 - with 40 being the default selected option.
I went to the code behind file and modified it to have the values I am wanting. Those values now show in the dropdown, and work if I select them. Problem: when the page is first rendered only 10 rows will show. How can I change this?
In my div displaying list of records using gridview. The div properties are like height=200, width=200, overflow-y:scroll, etc. I know in gridview we will get a default Page navigation bar appened to the records (it could be bottom or top) but what I want is records in gridview is scrobble and page navigation bar should be static at both the places (bottom and top). if we enabled page navigation bar in gridview...it will be appended to the gridview records and it will be scroll along with records but i want static page navigation bar.
I'm customizing a NopCommerce store, and am using a gridview to display and sort the products. All that works well. I like how the external pager (user control) works with the gridview, with one exception -- it uses the hyperlink control, so I lost viewstate, which I need to retain for both the search page and to retain the gridview sort options. Based on the page selected (from the pager control), I query the database and rebind the gridview. So, I switched the user control to use LinkButtons instead of Hyperlinks. This is the sample code for one of the buttons:
[Code]....
I set a breakpoint inside the lbCommandClick method, but it never gets hit. Reading other posts tells me that I would have to add the dynamic controls in the OnLoad method, but since this all happens based on other data on the page (say search results), I don't think I can do it onLoad. However, the link buttons do work to cause a postback, and my viewstate is saved correctly. The only problem is that I do not know which button was clicked. I could check Request.Params["__EVENTTARGET"] onLoad, but that is kind of a hack -- I'd much rather be able to set the event handler in the user control and use the CommandArgument property. But, what I have tried so far fails.
Especially one that would allow me to set the EventHandler in the User Control? (e.g. OnlbCommand="PagerLBPageChange" )
I used this linked to create my customized paging. [URL] .... when the total number of page is 1000 it displays all 1-1000 in the pagination. Now i want is <<1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 .... >> when click the dots << .. 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ... >>
I have a grid view where the user can change pages at either the top or the bottom of the grid view. I want the view to go back to the top whenever a user changes the page, whether they are changing from the top or the bottom. I've tried using anchors and javascript to achieve this but it does not work. The javascript is executed and the user is taken to the top of the gridview, this can be seen by placing an alert after the javascript to change the view. But the last thing that happens on the page change is that the window is returned to it's previous position (the bottom of the page). Is there any way of doing this?
I would like to change color of the gridView depending on the value from table that is bounded to the grid. I actually don't show this value on the grid. I tried by using additional field with visible=false, but the cell is string empty in this way. I don't know how to solve this in some other way?
I used this code, but as I said the value is empty:
[Code]....
Is it possible to solve this by getting value directly from bounded table and not from rows cell?
I have a column, description, in a GridView which has the most text data. As that column is defined as varchar(256), it can allow a string with 256 characters in it. In displaying, I don't want that column to stretch all the way. I use ItemStyle-Width to contain it to be 40% width. I also use word-break and word-wrap as:
I guess this attribute apply to the whole GridView1. I have a column called category with possible data as "LINKAGE", "CURTAIN", etc. Now "LINKAGE" is broken up into "LINKAG" and "E" with the "E" goes to next line. The word "CURTAIN" have the "IN" goes to the next line.
Now how can I apply the word-break and word-wrap to only the description column?
I have a grid view that is bound from my code behind. If the text of a label is equal to the value of a querystring, I want to apply a specific class/style that is in my .css. I've tried this, but doesn't seem to have any affect... How can I set the class for a column in the gridview if the two values match?
I have a validation method which passes the control of a failed validation ( IE TextBox in the Gridview row ) to a method which adds a validationError style.This all worked fine until I decided to use declarative css styling on the properties of the columns in the page IE Control-CssClass="someClass".
WHen I click the update and do find an error, I pass the control to have the validationError class appended. but it appears the declarative setting overrides this when it gets rendered.
