Im tring to get a CMS up and running for work and come to the conclution that the FormView is the way to go.
I have an edit page and would like to have a dropdown list where people pick a "Parent", for my site map/Navigation, from the list instead of needing to know the ID of the Parent. I can do this for my "Add New Page", with no FormView, but when I place it within the formView for my Edit Page the DropDownList1 stops being declared.
So what I need is something like: Parent = Dropdownlist1.serlectedItem.Valu But have no Idea how to achieve this using my FromView, two ObjectDataSource's and the dropdown list.
I have tried to link a asp:Lable text to the value of the Dropdownlist so I can pass that back to the DB with no luck.
The Code behind is as good as blank so may need to add stuff in there but again cant if I cannot declare anything within the For View :(

View 2 RepliesI have a formview in which I have a dropdown list that displays a list of owners. In case the list does not have the correct owner for the user I have added functionality for them to add a new owner to the database table that populates the list. I did this by including a textbox and an Insert button in a panel. When the user clicks the new owner insert button I would like to re-databind the dropdown list so that they will see the owner they added and be able to select it.
When I add ddl_owners.databind to my button click code it gives me an error. "Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control."
I don't want to re-databind the entire formview because then it deletes all the information on the form that the user has already keyed in.

I have a web form for handling invoices which has a form view. When I'm in insert item template, I need to have various fields. Some of them are contract number, invoice number, register date and other that are easy to handle. But there is a dropdown list related with a table of prices (the table has price name, price initial payment, number of payments, amount of month fee and so on). So, when the dropdown is selected, fields related with price should get their values from price table, and then the user decides to keep them or type in new values. How can I get it done? Should I use a Dynamic populate extender or type all the code behind using SelectedIndexChanged method to populate price related controls?
View 2 RepliesI have a textbox in a formview as well as a dropdown. When I select a value in the dropdown, the textbox should be made visible or invisible based on the value I select.
View 3 RepliesI have a drop down list that is populated in the page load event from a database table. The drop down has a DataTextField set to a project name and the DataValueField set to the project id (interger). Later I change the dropdowlist selected item with this code in the selectedindexchanged event of a gridview
GridViewRow row = GridView1.SelectedRow;
ddlProjectList.SelectedItem.Text = row.Cells[2].Text;
Does Changing the drop down list with this code cause the DataValueField property to change to the correct Project ID number also? If not is there a better way to do this? actually this code seems to be adding an additional item to the list so that the project i set with this code is listed twice so I don't think my code is correct
the formview in data tools in asp.net by default gives textbox in insert mode template.
how to change this to textarea or dropdown selection list?
I have a Formview where students put their information in such as name, address, etc. The text boxes are bound to my database, so once they are done, they choose to update, and my database is updated with their information. My problem is that the students often use All Caps to enter in their information.
I think I need the StrConv somehow, but I just can't seem to get this done. I've seen where it could be done with text boxes, but not when they were in a Formview using parameters.
I have probelm with getting value in to textbox when I changing dropdownlist
My example is:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$("#EndDate").change(function() {
var selectedItem = $(this).val();
$.getJSON("<%=Url.Action("FetchData")%>/?dropdownValue=" + selectedItem,function (dropdownvalue) {
});
});
});
</script>

I created a formview that I am using for data input (DefaultMode=Insert)
One of the objects I have is a text box (see below)
[code]....
When I click submit I get a message that I cannot insert a Null into the field IntershipNumAvailable. This makes sense since I made this field a required field in the database.
How do I get the form to recognize that the user selected item is the one I want to write to the database?
What changes do I need to make here? Do I need to make changes to my parameter list?

I have a dropdown list with the names of the months listed in it. These names are stored as int values but converted to string for display purpose. I also have a RadDatePicker control that will allow the user to select a specific date to overwrite the default date. The default date in the textbox needs to be set to the last day of the month selected (i.e. May 2010 would default to 05/31/2010).

View 1 RepliesI have a drop-down list that is wired up to a datasource from one table to retrieve a Vendor ID and Vendor Name. This ddl is outside a FormView that is wired up to a datasource containing Vendor contracts.
When I choose a Vendor from the ddl, I am able to populate a textbox outside of FormView with the Vendor ID from the ddl. However, what I need to do is populate a textbox within FormView with the Vendor ID. FormView is in Insert Mode by default since my page will be used for Adding Contracts only.
We have a page with quite a few textboxes and a dropdown list at the end. The dropdown list at the end is a "Result" and dependant on the result certain textboxes need to be filled in and this needs to be checked when they submit the page. I was thinking of using a custom validator
View 3 Repliesthe following content I created a table (Workers) with two columns(username,userid). Now i have Dropdownlist and textbox. Dropdownlist for Userid, Textbox for Username. If i click on the userid in dropdownlist, then the particular username should get displayed on the textbox. For this i have tried codings.
private void DropDownList()
{
OleDbConnection databaseConnection = new OleDbConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[1].ConnectionString);
databaseConnection.Open();
OleDbDataAdapter dataAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter("Select userid from workers", databaseConnection);

dataAdapter.Fill(dataTable);
DropDownListMaterials.DataSource = dataTable;
DropDownListMaterials.DataTextField = "userid";
DropDownListMaterials.DataValueField = "userid";
DropDownListMaterials.DataBind();

{
OleDbConnection databaseConnection = new OleDbConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings[1].ConnectionString);
databaseConnection.Open();

I am having an dropdownlistbox and fileupload control.After selecting a file from upload control,if i change the dropdownlist value(postback occurs) then the file path i choosen earlier is shown empty.
here is my code:

<asp:FileUpload ID="upload" runat="server" Width="320" Height="18" BorderColor="Gray" BorderWidth="1" />

<asp:ListItem Text="Students" Value="Students"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="Selected Users" Value="Selected Users"></asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category". When i click on edit to edit or change category, it doesn't display the selected category.

i have 4 text boxes and 2 dropdowns are there when ever i fill it all values should place in grid view., after entering of 5 or 6 records, i click on SAVE button then ,i want to save those values in to Data Base ,which are at Grid view.....
Example:
[code]...
I've tried to wrap up my problem with a complete example below - the original problem is part of a jQuery plug-in that I'm writing to extend the behaviour of an ASP.NET ajax application I already have.
The aspx page below has one drop down list which is marked for auto post back. I've also bound a change event using jquery (which ultimately I will swap for a .live() event to maintain the binding after the update panel refresh.) The problem is, when the jQuery event is bound I see two ajax begin requests and page_loads fire but only one ddlTest_OnselectedIndexChanged event. One of the page loads is malformed too - the content-length states it's about 300 bytes long whilst the totalBytes is 0 and form data empty. This does not happen if I bind to the click event of a button.
why the erroneous page_load event is firing ?
[code]....
I would like to alter the query that is run, depending on the selection made by the user in a drop down list on the same page. Would this best be done using a partial page update (AJAX)? Ideally it would be great to have the textbox result change quickly once the drop-down list value has changed, without a full page postback. I would like to change the SQL query to a completely different query if the user selects an option different to the default (page_load value) in the drop-down list. I would then like the newly retrieved result to be displayed in the textbox as before.
My current VB function looks like this:
