ID
Title

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.
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 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?
When I am trying to export data from gridview to excel i an also getting hyperlink along with that, how can i remove that before export. below is my code
<div align="right" style="padding-top:5px; padding-right:5px"> <span title="Export Data to Excel"><asp:ImageButton ID="btnExporttoExcel" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/img/Excel_Logo.png" onclick="btnExporttoExcel_Click" /></span> <span title="Export Data to Word"><asp:ImageButton ID="btnExporttoWord"
I have a nested gridview (gridview within gridview) that I need to render beneath the outer gridview.
I keep finding examples online of showing a nested gridview in the last column of the outer gridview but I need to show my nested gridview instead under the outer gridview.
I was certain that I had done this before by putting a row (<TR>) inside the TemplateField so that the nested gridview would display under the outer gridview. I am getting the data ok for the nested gridview, that is not a problem. The only issue I am having is making the inner gridview display under the outer gridview.
btw, the error is below:
<ERROR>
Type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TemplateField' does not have a public property named 'tr'.
I have 3 columns in a GridView. The first is a templatefield with a button in it and then other 2 are just plain data from the database. Currently when I try to render the HTML from the GridView I see all 3 columns, but I only want to see the plain data fields. I have seen the answer as:gvQuotes.Columns[0].Visible = alse;But that doesn't work for me, because I still want to keep the first templatefield column on my page.
Private Function GetRequestContent() As [String] Dim sw As New StringWriter() Dim hw As New HtmlTextWriter(sw) Me.grdCart.RenderControl(hw) Return sw.ToString()
I can't figure out what I"m doing wrong.. I followed this sample online at http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/091102-1.aspx to include a gridview in an email. But, it keeps throwing this error.. 'GridView' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.I've verified that the gridview is in a form, and there are no template fields in the gridview. Heres the gridview on my asp.net page..
I was working on a fairly simple code to get RSS into gridview. The code works fine with the URL mentioned in code but unable to work on Commented one.
I read a few VB books and ready or not, I going to start building!I am "very afraid" of code behind. Frankly, much of what I read about OOP went a bit over my head and am hoping by "doing" it will all come together. That said...
Datalist results. I want them to hyperlink to another page with a querystring. I moved a hyperlink control into the EDIT TEMPLATE box and removed the origianal label that was in the box. I did some editing and was able to come up with a hyperlink, but I really need a hyperlink to a new page with the original result of the datalist being the querystring parameter. For example...
If BABE RUTH is the datalist result, I want the querystring to be www.mysite.com?athlete=BABE%20RUTH. I am fairly competant in asp classic. I feel like a guy who has amnesia and has to learn the most basic stuff from scratch.
I created a datalist which contains hyperlinks that when clicked will redraw the page and update my another datalist in the same page. How do I hide this datalist after click any of its hyperlinks?
I am a complete noob to ASP.NET (C# based) and have migrated from PHP (I have mentioned this a few times but I feel I have to 'cos some of the questions I ask seem so basic!)
I have page (Products.aspx) it has a grid view using products from the northwind DB, the grid view is paged to show 'n' products at a time and has an extra column which is basically a 'view this product' hyper link, the user can click on this link and is taken to another page (Product.aspx) which provides complete details for that particular product, so, this is what I want to do next, I want to add a button that takes the product ID, (or other unique property of the product - it doesnt really matter at the moment, but i am likely to stick to ID).
Then take that value and place it in a cookie, (I know that session variables are held in cookies, that is not really a problem at the moment, I am concentrating on basics, then I will go a little more advanced).
so, I have a button - call it productIdBtn, and its value, which is going to be the product ID, in the button on click handler, how would I add this value to a cookie - call it prodIdCookie?
I am having to re-learn everything from the ground up and because PHP is so simple to write (mainly because of its weak typing),
My problem is this source, never render form tag in first row. It works fine. Firefox, Chrome, IE6, IE7 displays fine but IE8 overflows first row. When i set form tag style display:none other rows does not show cart image but first row still shows.
i have code in item databound, but i want to move it to prerender... how do i reference the controls correctly in prerender? in item databound i use e.item....?, what do i use in prerender?:
protected void DataList1_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataListItemEventArgs e) { Label Label55 = e.Item.FindControl("Label55") as Label; Label Label56 = e.Item.FindControl("Label56") as Label;
