I know that if I re-add the control during Page_Load, the posted values will be repopulated when the page is rendered; however, this is not the case when re-adding the control during the Click event and I need to add the control during an event handler.
While I am using a "Telerik" control here it shouldn't be any different I guess;
[code]....
What happens is that the control is created and rendered;
When I change value in the Combo box a Post-Back happens.
HOWEVER, the event RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChanged does not fire. Also when I am back at the page the new value is not saved; Obviously, i recreate the control every time. If I don't I get a ViewState error. Seems to me that there some ViewState management problem, but I cannot identify it...
I've got a custom ASP.Net web user control I've built; done this enough times before but this one is misbehaving and I can't spot why.
Where the calling page includes the user control directly in its markup, all is well and the control behaves as expected.
However if the page adds this particular control dynamically (to a placeholder in the master page, which is what's calling this whole thing) the elements within it stay firmly NULL - nothing from the user control gets written to the client at all, including static content within the user control.
I'm creating an ASP.NET control dynamically based on a value selected in a dropdown; for instance the field can be a textbox or a checkbox (for now), and then it gets added to a placeholder control. However, I'm unsure how to retrieve the value - using the placeholder's FindControl method returns null although I'm specifying the ID when I create the control.
I am writing a survey generating system in asp.net. i asked an ealier question about the best way to create controls that can be passed about as variables. This was problematic with user controls so i was advised to use custom controls and a quick way to do this was to inherit from the panel control and just add a bunch of standard controls the the controls collection by overriding the CreateChildControls method. This way i could create my "survey" controls,which are basically Questions in the survey. THe question controls are then dynamically added to the page. This all works well but know i have come to the point that i want to try and retrieve the values from these controls and i seem to be lost in a nether world of of viewstates and page lifecycles. I can ensure that the dynamically added text boxes have a known ID, however even if i add the parent control in the page init handler the CreateChildControls method does not run until after until after the viewstate is loaded. I cannot work out how to retreive the values from these text boxes.
I have a user control say SearchVendor.ascx which contains 4 buttons a gridview and another user control. I need to load the control dynamically actually as a modal pop up
I get this code
var uc = Page.LoadControl("~/blah/VendorProductSearch.ascx") as VPSearch; uc.ShowVPSearch(true); _tempPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(uc);
it works fine the control gets loaded properly but onclick of any button the second time the control disappears ?
I want the dynamically added control to remain until the user clicks on the cancel button
I have a GridView of thumbnail photos within an UpdatePanel, with clickable icons in each row which each load a User Control containing a small Google Map into the relevant row. The idea is that the user can geotag (by clicking on the map) any photo in the GridView.
In the map User Control, there is some Javascript initialising the map:
function initializeMap() { if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) { var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('Map'), {size: new GSize(336, 200)}); // set the map controls, set the centre, etc. } }
Problem is: I don't know how to call the initializeMap() method. Because it's dynamically added to the page, any attempt to link it to the calling button by "onClientClick=initializeMap()" for example, gives a JS error, saying the method isn't defined.
I have a control that handles commenting. In this control, I have set a delegate event handler for sending an email.
I then have various types of controls, e.g. blog, articles etc, each of which may or may not have the commenting control added (which is done dynamically with me not knowing the id's), i.e. the commenting control is added outside this control. Each of these controls handles it's emailing differently(hence the event).
What I'm trying to determine, is how to assign the event in the parent control. At the moment, I'm having to recursively search through all the controls on the page until I find the comment control, and set it that way. Example below explains:
COMMENTING CONTROL
public delegate void Commenting_OnSendEmail(); public partial class Commenting : UserControl { public Commenting_OnSendEmail OnComment_SendEmail(); private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if(OnComment_SendEmail != null) { OnComment_SendEmail(); } } }
PARENT CONTROL
public partial class Blog : UserControl { private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Commenting comControl = (Commenting)this.FindControl<Commenting>(this); if(comControl != null) { comCtrol.OnComment_SendEmail += new Commenting_OnSendMail(Blog_Comment_OnSendEmail); } } }
EDIT:
The reason I ask is that if I search from this.Page as the initial control, I am worried about time taken to search down the control tree to find it. Each different type of page would be different in how many control it would have. On some testing, it returns back quite quickly the result.
I have a composite user control consisting of three standard table cells (a legend, an image with a tool tip, and a text field control). If I add these to a TableRow in my aspx page it works fine and produces legal HTML in my source. The below works fine ...
However when I try to do the same programmatically (C#) the TableRow won't accept anything in its Controls collection that isn't a TableCell. I could make my control a nested table in its own right but I lose the alignment of my form items on the page with multiple controls, as each table aligns itself according to its contents. Is there anyway I can make the TableRow accept my control as collection of cells or do I need to do some casting or making my user control inherit some kind of TableCell attributes? I can also dynamically add my controls to a TableCell item which actually displays OK in IE but creates illegal HTML (<td><td></td><td> ... </td></td> - I assume this is illegal) in my resulting source. The code below DOES NOT work ...
I am having datagridview control with dynamically added BoundField columns.I want to have tetxboxes in each cell of the gridview so taht user will enter data in gridview textboxes and at last on button click it will be saved in database.
I have a gridview that on it's RowDataBound event I dynamically add Image Controls to some columns.
The problem is that I lose these images on the next PostBack.
OBS: The GridView's EnableViewState propertie is already set to true
I know about the page lifecycle, but how can I persist these images if I have to add them on the RowDataBound event?
In addittion, if I add a static TemplateColumn with an Image Control and I set it's ImageUrl propertie inside the RowDataBound event it will obviously persist between postbacks. The problem is that I don't know how many columns with images I'll have, it's defined on the datasource.
I am creating a survey page that has a list of questions and answers that can be radiobuttonlists, checkboxlists or textboxes. These controls are added dynamically to a Repeater in its ItemDataBound event using Controls.Add.
I've managed to render the page ok but when I submit the form and iterate over the controls in the repeater to get the selectedvalues of the radiobuttons and textbox values, FindControl returns null. What do I need to do to get get the selected values? I've tried iterating over the RepeaterItems but that returned null too. I've tried different types of FindControl but it never resolves the control types.
It works if I add a declarative DataBinder in the Repeater like this
However, I want want to dynamically add the controls but in doing this i cant get the selectedvalues when submitting. This is tha main structure of my code...
I have to dynamically create controls and add them to a table. In a button click I need to find the value entered for that control. The control ids are also dynamic. Below is the code I tried.
[code]....
the problem is that i m getting the rowcount=0 of the table tblUdf inside which i added the table rows and controls inside the table cells.
how to get the control values of the dynamically added controls.
I am just trying to add some dynamic controls to the SimpleQueryControl (which of course is a kind of Web Control and inherits all the methods accordingly). I dont know how to get the values of Child controls which I have added dynamically.
I'm adding alot of buttons at runtime to my form. When i push these buttons i want a confirm window to pop up and ask if i'm sure to delete this item.How would i go by doing this.Every button is added dynamically so i expect that the confirmbuttonextender should also be added that way.Do i have to add a extender for each button or should i make one in the aspx file then change the targetID at runtime ?
UPDATE Panel div = new Panel(); div.CssClass = "BulletDiv"; content.Controls.Add(div); [code]....
On adding items in it ,shows an error: "Dropdownlist does not allow multiple selection."But when i tries to print the selected item it shows null exception.
The controls show up fine on the page, but they don't show up when I view source, nor can I access them from the code behind.If I add the controls in the on_init method, they work. But I have some business rules driving changes to the list of controls itself that require I fire the add method elsewhere. Has anyone seen this before? I'm away from work so I can't copy the exact code.
I have two terrible ideas for how to get it working. One involves some jQuery and a set of hidden controls holding a big array of integers; the other is run the method on_init AND on my other events so the controls at least show up. Both smell like ugly hacks.
