View 4 RepliesI have a class UserControlBase that inherits System.Web.UI.UserControl and my user controls inherit UserControlBase class. UserControlBase has some common functions that are used in all user controls.
I want to put error display funtion to UserControlBase as well so that I may not have to declare and manage it in all user controls. Error will be displayed in some label in usercontrol. Issue is how to access label which is in usercontrol in UserControlBase in function ?
I have an ASP.NET 4.0 application with some simple user controls. The user controls work fine on the design surface (VS.NET 2010), but when they're loaded during application execution, nothing shows up.
Futhermore, the various child controls of the user controls are null when referenced inside the code behind for the user control.
The code behind for the user control executes as expected, but any reference to child controls are null.
It's like ASP.NET is never parsing the ASCX to create the instances of the child controls.
here my code-
GridView gvCondition = (GridView)this.FindControl("ucCondition").FindControl("gvCondition");
gvCondition.DataSource = objConditionFieldCollection;
gvCondition.DataBind();
but it is throwing as exception Object reference not set to an instance of an object.How can I access user control's gridview control from parent page?
I have a web user control that represents a simple message box. It is used to display simple messages like "Item has been deleted", or "The item was saved successfully".
On the other hand, I have another web user control that represents the item in the form of an editable form (I made this a user control because this is used in two different pages). I want to embed an instance of the message box user control inside the editable form. I am writing this right after the @Control directive:
[Code]....
Instead of using @Register directives, I register the user controls in web.config and so far this has worked just fine.
With the above markup, the project compiles, but whenever I try to navigate to a page that contains this construct, I get an HttpParseException exception. Furthermore, Visual Studio states that the tack w7rc9:MessageBox doesn't represent a known control.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm having trouble to access a Parent's property in User Control. I don't know how to access the parent. The Parent Page's name is Search.aspx. I saw the example below and tried it:

Than I could access the Parent's Property, but when I ran the website I got these errors:
1. The user control is not declared in the parent page
2. The user contol has a circular reference

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a user control that renders couple nested divs (a rounded corner box to be frank). This is a templated user control, which means that user can put any control he wants into the header, body or footer of this box. Everything is working fine, except the fact that server-side controls can't be retrived from my box. Take a look at this code:

View 8 RepliesI don't think I understand fully how ASP.NET does inheritance of controls.I have a user control, ucBase, which has an asp.net label in the ascx file. Code behind references the label and it works fine during run time if the control is not a parent for another user parent.
If I have another user control, ucChild, inheriting from ucBase, the label in ucBase's code is always null. ucChild has no controls in its ascx fileThe server controls (like the label) needs to be declared in the ascx file and not created programmatically.What needs to be done for ucBase to see its own controls when it's a parent user control?
I have DefaultPage with MasterPage, two web user controls A.ascx and B.ascx. A.ascx is nesting B.ascx
I created folder App_LocalResources and added there two files: B.ascx.resx and B.ascx.xx-XX.resx.
Each resoource file has lblText.Text item.
B.ascx has a label:

All I would like to be able to do is include one user control within another! Is this possible? I have spent the last hour searching the internet and it seems that I can't find a single thing.
In classic ASP it would be something like:
<!--#include file="EditProject.ascx"-->
I tried this but no luck!
Parser Error Message:
There can be only one 'control' directive.

I have a user control called adminMenu and I use it in my index.aspx and all is fine, but I need to access a MenuItem in adminMenu and need to change NavigateUrl on the MenuItem. Tried this code with no luck:
MenuItem MaintenanceReports = this.adminMenu.FindItem("MaintenanceReports");
Not sure if I should be accessing adminMenu properties from controls code behind, but when I try from controls code behind was not able to access it either.
I'm trying to access a user control from my .vb code behind file. I am actually trying to access a button on that user control page.
View 7 RepliesI have an asp.net 3.5 WebSite application where I have a bunch of UserControls.
In some scenarios I have a reference of type Control (System.Web.UI.Control) that I need to cast to a specific User Control type (to access public properties and methods of the User Control).
The User Control classes are all declared in "the global scope", i.e. not within a namespace. However, for some reason, only some of my User Controls is possible to type in a code file and show up in intellisense and some just wont. In one scenario I could write the cast in code anyway and the site would build (but the UserControl type name did not shift in to the ordinary class name color (light green, you know) in VS text editor), but when running the page I still get the error message about missing using directive or a reference...
If I use the VS 2010 "Navigate to" feature (Ctrl+,) and search for a type I usually get one hit for the Type/Class name and another for the actual file. When searching on my User Control class names I only get the file hits, no class representation. This even goes for those User Control types I actually can access in code.
I've tried to compare the User Control classes that work and doesn't work, but I can't find any difference, they are all declared as public partial.
I am trying to create a web page, that use a user-control (the user control is win-form).I am getting the message : That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers.I put the dll on c:windowsassembly, but I don't know why I getting the above.Here is my code

On masterPage i have button btnTest, how hide button from masterPage on userControl.ascx

In my default.aspx page I have a PlaceHolder control within an UpdatePanel. In this placeholder control I will dynamically load a web user control, which is just a form with a submit button. On this user control, I have the form within an update panel and I have the "Submit" button's Click Event added to the triggers.
When I submit the form, the UpdatePanel on the web user control nor the update panel on the default.aspx page are capturing the post back, thus causing a full post back which refreshes my page.
how to capture this post so its rendered in Ajax and not a full post back?
I want to use a couple of instances of the same control on a page. The user control is intended to display a list of records in a repeater. The aim is that the second control will show a list excluding the IDs in the first control The control has a number of public properties, including IDsInThisList, and IDstoExclude. The query will exclude the IDs in the second property.
What I would like to do is get the record IDs from the first instance of the control (IDsInThisList), and pass them to the second contro as the IDsToExclude.
I have a test page where I am setting the properties of the controls in code. As you might guess, it's not working! The first control displays the top 3 items, as desired, but the second display the records 1-7, rather than records 4-10 because it is not receiving the IDstoExclude from the first control When I response write the IDstoExclude from the first control in my testpage, the string is empty. (if I do it from within the control, it shows the IDs)
How can I get the controls to fire in order and pass values to each other?
Screen grab of test page + uc and test page code attached

I have a requirement where i need to access the methods of one user control in another user control.
