I have a ascx page where I am using a hidden field to store the value of a the drop down box as it is generated using a google address finder. My problem is that when I try to store the value directly in the hidden field :
hfDdlVerifyID.Value = ddlVerifySS.SelectedValue;
in the event of a button click, the value is stored but on postback is lost again. Whereas, if i try to use Scriptmanager to do it, nothing is stored.
Now this is working fine but , lets say i have 10 textboxes, if i change the value one the first textbox to be the same as the second textbox , it means it is a duplicate, now the problem here is that the value of the hidden field does not get updated immidiately , you have to click twice to get the real value.
I have a hiddenfield, which I want to save the scroll position of asp.panel scrollbar during postback, and when during postback this value is called back to set the scroll position.
Using javascript I can grab the value from the scrollbar, and assign it to the hidden field, but when I post the page back the value has gone.
Here is my code snippet: <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> function SetScroll(val) { [code].....Am I missing something? How do I keep the value during post back?
you save data into a dynamic hidden field ,which is created dynamically during the handling of some postback event.what is the best way to retrieve it from this field upon a postback, (besides searching the request for the key of this hidden field and then retrieving the corresponding value as in the code below)?
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { bool found = false; for (int i=0; i<this.Request.Form.Keys.Count; i++)
There's more involved in the value of course, but HiddenField is an asp:HiddenField control with runat=server set. I have in my javascript:
var id = $("#<%= HiddenField.ClientID %>").val();
The code in the javascript is set to be run only after the postback has occured (a different client click event) for the purpose of passing the hidden field value via QueryString to another URL (since i can't do a response redirect on postbacks and the client wants it in a different page anyway).
I am working on an ASP.NET application (well supposed to be deploying it about 3 days ago) and my hidden fields are loosing value when the form gets posted back..
I am using them to store information i write using javascript and on my own machine this works fine but as soon as i deploy it on our server everything else works except these values are lost..
I am using the .NET AJAX control toolkit on the same page and have noticed my calander datepicker also looses the data..
I have checked using firebug and the data is definitely getting post to the server but is getting lost somewhere!
I have a custom user control which contains a asp hiddenfield object. The value of this hidden field is being set using javascript and I have verified that the value is being set properly. When a postback occurs the new value is not being saved and I cannot access it in my code.
I believe the problem is because the user control is not saved in viewstate and therefore the hidden field value is not saved accross postback. How can I make the hidden field save its value? I tried accessing it from the early page cycles and still no luck.
I have a custom control that has a hidden field. Upon postback I want to obtain the value stored in it, but it's always an empty string.I am performing client-side manipulation of the hidden field values and have verified in firebug that the fields are correct before issue a post back,Here is the setup:
public class DualListPanel : SWebControl, INamingContainer
I must be doing something wrong, but this makes sense to me. I have a Listbox loaded with tons of items from a datasource. A user clicks one of these items it grabs the selectedindex (an integer) and stores it in a HiddenField (works fine).
Now when the page does a complete a refresh (after postback) I want the ListBox to go back to that selectedindex that is in the HiddenField. Problem is, it seems that after postback the HiddenField is empty? Then I thought about storing the value in an Integer variable in code, but that is simply coming up as a zero at all times.
Question 1: What is the best/simplest way to do this?
Question 2: How?
I am currently grabbing it on selectedindex change
I have an upload control (csv file) of which I use the stream to retrieve data in a datatable that I then bind to a datagrid, sitting in a repeater control.I have to bind more than one record to the repeater, therefore I need to find a way of storing the stream for each binding, so that I can bind it to the datagrid again, via itemdatabound event of repeater.
I have tried storing the stream in the repeater's datatable but on each postback, the content of the stream gets lost. The stream still exists, but its length is set to 0.I have tried storing it in a session object, but again it is reset to 0.
I have tried using viewstate but I get a xmlserialization error. Saying IXmlSerialization is not implemented.I am desperate to find a work around as I am feeling the pressure at work.
I have a form with a update panel. This posts the form and validates it. Returning a errorMessage string of any invalid field such as "Field xyz is a required field, Field abc needs to be a quantity"
When I enter incorrect date it posts back fine and displays the text in a div at the bottom of the page which the update panel is aimed at to update. (and only this it should be changing)
This works but the second time I hit say (say i enter invalid data twice) the Complete form will disappear leaving me with just the banner of the site and the error message that is returned.
Ive tried commenting out the entire of the code post back so that the button doesn't actually do anything but it still has the same problem(of course this time it wouldnt have a error message created)
So i can only think it is something to do with the updatepanel itself and how it works but i have been staring at this for ages and have no more ideas!
I am in beginner level on developing web pages. I was coding on desktop applications and as you know it is easy to say that web applications are extremely different than desktop applications.
I wonder why data are lost between postbacks.???? And what is the best way not to lose the data belonging to a specific control (especially gridview). Session or viewstate or anything else?
Never had this happen before. I just upgraded my site from 3.5 to 4.0. Here's the scenario:
1.) I have a literal on a web form, in an UpdatePanel.
2.) On PostBack, the Literal's "Text" property loses it's value. The ViewState is enabled throughout the page. Further, I changed the Literal to a label and it also has this problem. The TextBox's appear to keep their values.
3.) If I remove all of the Ajax controls (which currently is just the UpdatePanel and the ScriptManager) then the Literal control keeps it's value through PostBacks.
4.) There is no client side JavaScript where I'm manually changing the values of these controls. They are only editted in the server side events.
I have read that setting the AutomaticDataBind property in the web.config could remedy this but I can't find any documentation on it and I don't know where to put it in the web.config to even try it.
I am using the AJAX Contol Toolkit and 4 CascadingDropDown extenders with an ODBC connection in a Web Service. The original load of values in each level works great. I then use these values to set the create the SQL for the SelectCommand for a Gridview.
The problem I am having is that when I submit the page to perform the search, the first 2 dropdowns repopulate and set the selected index accordingly, but the 3rd dropdown does not retain its selected value. It does populate with the values, but the selected value does not get set.
The correct values are available for the SelectCommand which returns the correct values.
I have two radio buttons that are disabled with javascript when the page loads. RadioButton1 is checked by default. When I click the button to do a postback, the RadioButton1 is no longer checked.
I am creating a ASP.Net server control to manage locations. The control is a composite control containing several text-boxes, labels, and a link button. I use the AJAX Control Toolkit to provide a modal popup which contains a Bing map. All the Javascript is in its own file and used as an embedded web resource.
The link button is what opens the modal popup. It also needs to call a Javascript function that initializes the Bing map (onclick = "GetMap();"). There are instances when this server control is placed within an Update Panel (and there is no way to avoid this). When in an Update Panel the link button loses its onclick event. I understand that this is because during an async postback the portion of the DOM that defines the content of the Update Panel is thrown out and reinitialized, resulting in the event breaking. When the control is not in an Update Panel everything works as intended.
I have tried registering events on Page.Load and Page.Init, like so:
[Code]....
I have also tried flat out writing the function call to the page:
[Code]....
I have put breakpoints on the lines inside each delegate and they do not get hit. I am not aware of any special way to register events of a composite control's child control or the Page.Load/Page.Init events when being done inside a server control. Is there some special way to register these events? (Note: Both those code blocks above are in my CreateChildControls() method)
Below is the GetMap() Javascript function. As you can see it is pretty straight forward.
i have a global field called hotelId. i then have this piece of code that gets a value from gridview row:
[Code]....
the local variable is assigned to my global one, which gets passed to my method along with other variables. while stepping through i can see the value is set, but when i hit the submit button variabl is passed to another method except my hoteId. it gets lost...
After this, the text box continues to work correctly, but the _state member does not pick up the posted back values and instead just sticks to the declared value. I've checked the raw posted values in the Request object, and the new value for the list's UniqueID is there, but _state doesn't pick it up.
I have a textbox that uses TextboxWaterMarkExtender and jquery-ui's datepicker plugin.Upon postback, my textbox is losing the value selected from jquery datepicker.Below is the sample code to see the behavior. Is there anyway I can make my textbox to retain selected value on postback?One thing to note is, if I use jquery watermark plugin, it does postback the value. But for certain reasons, I think I plan to use AjaxControlToolkit.
