Forms Data Controls :: Popup Calendar Inside A Formview
May 26, 2010
So I have tried both the Ajax Control Toolkit (which didn't work -- page didn't even display, got an error message about assemblies not registered.
AND implement use of the JQuery datepicker. Which I do have working OUTSIDE of FormView. Once I put it in FormView it doesn't display. Spent all day on this crap and have absolutely nothing to show for it but a bunch of code that doesn't do what I want it to....grrr...my inadequacies are irritating me (can you tell?)
Any help to get it working inside the Formview and bound to the Date field for my insertemplate. The FormVendorVisit is only used to insert the following fields: vendor_visit_id (identity / pk / not even visible on the formview inserttemplate), vendor_id, time_spent, date(this is where I am running into problems getting a popup calendar to select the date. My "ButtonInsert" in the formview takes care of the rest and works perfectly if I enter a date manually.
Here's my code on my aspx page:
[Code]....
My code behind vb page doesn't have too much in it yet and nothing with the datepicker:
[Code]....
When the FormView is in Edit mode, ddlCategory is populated as expected by calling GetCategories(), which returns a List of categories. However, when the ListView is in Insert mode, ddlCountry is empty. I put a break point in GetCountries(), but it never gets called. If I change the name of the method, I get an error. So it recognizes the method at compile time, but does not call it at run time. I'm guessing this is an embedded binding issue of some kind, but I'm hoping someone can save me a lot of time by pointing out the solution.
I am inserting 4 fields into a table trought an SqlDataSource and a FormView element. These fields are ID (autopopulated), date(selected from calendar and/or todays date as default), Company name(user input), and UserID (taken from LoginName?).
I am able to inser the data in to the table when typing it, but I would like to have the UserID fiel auto completed and the date as well, or filled with the selected calendar date.
This is my part of my code.-------------------------------------------
I am changing a vb.net windows form program to browers application using asp.net and code behind vb.net. The form has a textbox for a date, currently when user clicks in the textbox a calendar pops up to force the user to select from the calendar. How do I do this using asp.net/code behind vb.net.
i have a gridview in each row of gridview row i hve 2 columns. in each row i need a button to enter date, when i click button one calender shld popup and data shld be display at end of the row
In the website I'm building, I have a form that allows new users to register. Part of this page has mandatory address fields, and I use a postcode lookup field which returns a SuburbID and FullSuburbName (Suburb, State & PostCode) to a RadioButtonList inside an UpdatePanel.
[Code]....
I then handle the insert process in codebehind, and all this works perfectly on my New Account page.What I'm trying to do now, however, is replicate this functionality in the Edit Template of a FormView on my Manage Account page. The idea being that the user can view their current details in the ReadOnly view, then switch to Edit view to change their address (amongst other details of course). When the FormView changes to Edit mode, it should display the user's current PostCode in the textbox, and the RadioButtonList should display the available Suburbs for that PostCode, with the user's current SuburbID as the initial SelectedValue. If the user changes the PostCode and hits search, this refreshes the RadioButtonList with the new list of Suburbs, and once they have selected a new SuburbID this should get written back to the DB with the rest of the form (when they click Save I mean), using the SQL Data Source Update element. However, I simply cannot get this to work inside the FormView Edit Template and
So far, I have tried to handle the FormView's ItemCreated event and populate the RadioButtonList with the Suburbs that match the user's current PostCode, but if I do this with SelectedValue='<%# Bind("SuburbID") %>' in the RadioButtonList, I get the error "Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."If I then change it to have the SelectedValue populate from the codebehind, this works on the initial switch to Edit mode, but when the user changes the PostCode and hits search, I get a different error "'rblSuburb' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items."My thinking was that rather than binding the RadioButtonList I would just add the new SelectedValue in the SQLDataSource_Updating method, but it doesn't seem to like that either.
have a gridview inside a formview is it possible to show running totals in the gridviews footer section? the gridview is populated with two parameters outside of the formview. Im using .vb
I have added a table to my FormView Edit template for structure and a button that pops up a form for information.
When the button is clicked I want a check box in neighboring cell to become checked. But I am having problems in the VB code behind, establishing the name of the check box to change its state. Its something like this....
I have an ObjectDataSource giving me data similar to: OrderNumber OrderDate OrderValue OrderItems The first three are simple data types and the last has multiple occurrences of another class: OrderLineNumber OrderItem OrderQuantity The ObjectDataSource will only contain one row (which might make things simpler). So, there will be one OrderNumber, OrderDate and OrderValue; and then several occurrences of OrderItems (each containing OrderLineNumber, OrderItem and OrderQuantity).
I am displaying OrderNumber, OrderDate and OrderValue in the FormView - that work's fine, as expected. I have placed a GridView within the FormView and am failing miserably to get it to bind to OrderItems. I have tried the obvious things like specifying "odsWhatever.OrderItems" as the DataSourceID for the GridView, but to no avail.
The above code works if there are controls directly inside a update panel. But what if I want to disable a button or a tex box that is inside an Edit template of a formview.. that is in a panel.
im learning webforms and asp.net in general and what i have so far is a formview that displays data being pulled from a sqldatasource, but i also want a checkboxlist that can be used to input information and display information. this checkboxlist is insode the formview. the problem im having is that my formview is calling a datasource with an specific stored procedure with one table and my checkboxlist needs to called another stored procedure that has a different table. formviews does not allow you to have tow different datasources so how can i make this possible? ill paste the front end code and the backend code so you guys can see what im trying to do.
protected void FormView1_ItemInserted(object sender, FormViewInsertedEventArgs e) { // Here I want to make a label "Saved" visible after user inserts the record into the formview. // the label is in InsertItemTemplate of the formview next to Insert and Cancel Links. It is invisible by default. // Is this the right event that i am in to do something like this.. if there is any other way to do this, }
How to write code in vb.net to control the Dropdown which is inside FormView EditItemTemplate. FormView named "frmFaultsReg" DetailsView named "lstStatus" Actually what i want to do that there is a textbox inside FormView EditItemTemplate and ItemTemplate to insert Closing date. lstStatus has a value PENDING and CLOSED. If a user select CLOSED from lstStatus then the date textbox named "ClrDateTimeTextBox" should show current date time and to insert into database and if user again selects PENDING from lstStatus then the date textbox should show empty. I think the postback of lstStatus should work but lstStatus is inside the FormView thats why I am unable to hook it.
I keep getting a null reference when I try to access a listbox inside the EditItemTemplate of a formview. I check the mode before accessing the control (Formview1.CurrentMode) to make sure it is in edit mode and even set it manually to edit mode again! But formview1.findcontrol("blah") returns null. Formview1.EditItemTemplate does not have a FindControl method, not sure what else to try.
I have a UserControl inside the ItemTemplate of my FormView and I need to access it in order to get an event fired off. As the UserControl is inside the template, my event cannot see it!
