I noticed that with some of the data controls (like gridview and listview) the page loses focus when you click edit, update, etc. So if your data control is somewhere lower on your page, you'd have to scroll down to get to it again. Is this normal or is there a way to keep the focus or location on where you were previously?
I have a rather large datalist on which I have implemented an editing capability. When I click on my edit link, everything works as expected except that when I bind my data focus returns to to the top of the screen, so my user will have to scroll all the way back down to the item he wants to edit. Is there a way to keep the page centered on the item in question through the databind?
I have a master page with a textbox that I want to use for a search, and display the results on the content page.
I've dragged in the datasource to the content page, and configured the formview to use that datasource... almost.
The issue I'm having is that on the last step of the configure datasource wizard where you select the parameters, I want to select the master page textbox control for the search parameter... but of course it's not available in the list. The list only allows me to choose controls from the content page.
How do I set this master page search box as the parameter for my datasource?
In my webpage I have a Formview bounded by sqldatasource. I can perfectly Update data from it. In the same page I have a gridview bounded by some other sqldatasource. I have to give user new record option from gridview.
I know that there is no default property to insert new record with the help of gridview until we provide some other way by coding but I don't want to do that.
Therefore I have taken a textbox with the validation field and a button outside the gridview to insert new record into gridview and refresh it.
I don't want to allow user to add empty text using textbox thatswhy I have validated that textbox.
Problem:
If user has the scenario to update only the Formview then he cannot because there is a validation there with the textbox.
If I remove the validation then user is able to update FormView perfectly but may add empty text from the textbox.
if the user allowed to update FormView and to add data with the help of textbox and gridview get refresh. If user can do only one task also either to update FormView or to add data from textbox to refresh gridview.
The task is most important for me and I have only 12 hours to complete this task or you can say the time limit is going to expire.
I have a gridview with 2 chosen colums, and i want one of them to be a link. When i click the link, a formView with all colums of that record will appear in the same page.
I have menage to do this but then i had the formView in another aspx page. Now i want the formView to be visible in the same page as the gridView.
How can i menage that? Do i need a Panel or something?
I would like to ask if it is possible to access data on a master FormView from a nested detail FormView.
I have a main form (master) with several tabs (detail) and would like to display a label with text from main form that is hidden by the tab at the moment of editting. My asp page looks like this.
[Code]....
Is it possible to get the value of the label CompanyTextLabel from CompanyTextBox using just ASP.NET expressions or something similar without writing c# code in .cs file?
I am using a form view to update details off activities, i have used the asp.net wizard to update the activities but for some reason in my VB page my textbox which is in the formview is not picking up.
[code]...
Basically what I am trying to write is: How can I rewrite this statement so that the textbox and the dropdownlist is recognised in the vb page?
I am using an ObjectDataSource in my FormView for INSERT.
Data inserts correctly to my backend SQL table, however as i am posting back a success/fail message to the same page, i have noticed that after a successful INSERT if it hit the Refresh button the INSERT is doubled up.
How can i stop a user pressing the Refresh button and doubling the INSERT?
Is there a setting somewhere or can i stop this programmatically within my ObjectDataSource_Inserting method perhaps?
I have a GridView and a FormView on the same page. They both have separate DataSources. This is a simple Master Details configuration, when a someone clicks on the Select link in the GridView, the FormView brings up the Details data. But for some reason the FormView's DataSource is trying to retrieve data when I load the page. This is causing an error because no ID is passed from the GridView.
I have a formview that use the formview iteminserted event. The information inserts into the formview fine, but all cells blank out after the insert. How can I make it so I can show all the values I have inserted show up in the formview after the inteminserted event?
So, I'm trying to use form view in insert mode on a dedicated aspx page. So when a user clicks "Add New" from the main GridView page, it will take the user to an Insert.aspx page that will be in Insert mode ready to collect information.
Here's what I have so far, and all I get is a blank page when I try to run it.
I a formview object. I have created an edit temple and an empty template Whehn there is data in the table nor probem When my table is empty i got the empty template to display when I click insert I get the error " Form must be in insert mode" How can I tell if there is no data on the page load so I can maybe do this:
I have a FormView at the very bottom of the page in insert/edit mode. When I click insert/update button, the whole page reload and the pointer does not keep within the Formview but go to the very top of the page far away from the desired FormView.
What can I do here to prevent cursor going outside the Formview ? Is it I can use update panel ? What and where I should use the tags ? Or there are other better way ?
Being A C++ programmer this is fairly new to me - I am working on a formview and have been facing a problem- The issue is simple - I want to display a success page after I insert a row successfully and a custom error page if the insertion fails (due to datatype or format mismatch with table in database).
To achieve this I am doing as follows -
1. Defining a custom error page in ASP.NET configuration tool (webconfig)
>> This page never works if I enter an incorrect format in formview. It would rather display the ugly page with Server Error information (for example) -
The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word starting at index 0.
question - Why my default page is not getting displayed? Is it because I am testing from same development machine or is it because the error page doesnt work for "Server Error" pages?
2. In the "iteminserted" event I am redirecting it to Response.Redirect("~/newitemconfirm.aspx")
>> If I do this, irrespective of whether the row insertion was successful or not, this confirmation page always gets displayed! I want it to be displayed only on successful insertion.
I have a FormView and the SELECT statement I have is as follows:
SelectCommand="SELECT [UserName], [Full_Name_1], [Full_Name_2], [Email], [Address], [City], [State], [Zip_Code], [Home_Phone], [Cell_Phone] FROM [Homeowners] WHERE ([UserName]='<%$ User.Identity.Name %>')"... but it results in the FormView disappearing from the web page. Note: at the top of the page, <%= user.identity.name %> displays the name fine, so user.identity.name does contain the info I'm looking for.I am trying to figure out how to correctly format the SELECT filter to feed user.identity.name to the SELECT statement as a filter. ... or if there is an alternative way.
I have a strange issue with the FormView. After working through some issues getting the update to work (as this is my first experience with FormViews) I now have a new issue. After I perform an update, and the FormView updates and returns to read mode, if I hit F5 (refresh) the FormView performs another update to the datasource, despite the fact it is read-only mode and none of the fields on the screen are editable.
I would think that a refresh in read mode for the FormView after an edit would simply refresh the data from the database, not perform another update. Again, the FormView is in Read Only Mode, but a refresh is creating another Update event (which I can debug and see if I break in the ItemUpdating event). This only happens after I perform an edit, not when the page initially loads.
I have a gridview on Contacts.aspx. From this page, I want an "Add New Contact" ImageButton to open the Formview in the ContactDetails.aspx page in Insert mode....
