How To Grow A Textbox To Match Size Of Input For Data Entry Dynamically

Feb 3, 2010

I'd like to add a description field to an application that can be as long as several lines (or even paragraphs) or as short as a one-liner.Instead of taking up a lot of screen real estate or have scroll bars, it would be preferable to have the textbox grow based on its input.

On IE6 adding Style="overflow-y:visible" accomplishes this nicely (both on display of read only, and if we are in edit mode).

However, it has no effect on Firefox, or IE7 for that matter.

Jquery - Make The Iframe's Height Dynamically Grow/shrink Based On The Size Of The Content

Mar 29, 2011

I have an ASP.NET website. This site is fairly complex in the sense that it has all sorts of blurs, gradients and rounded corners. The content of the website is always going to be in the same area, an area within some rounded corners. The content is going to be of a dynamic height. And, I can't show any scrollbars, other than those displayed by the browser window.

The banner is a Flash movie. I want to prevent the page from flickering. Because of this, I want to only update the url of the content portion. My question is, is there a way to do this without significant re-working? I thought an iframe would be suitable, but I can't figure out:

How to make the iframe's height dynamically grow/shrink based on the size of the content Get rid of the borders / scrollbars across the major browsers.

Is what I'm trying possible? Is there a better way to do it?

Web Forms :: Dynamically Generate Label Upon Textbox Entry

I am creating a system in ASP.NET VB whereby a user can enter data into a textbox and the data is populated into a label - easy right? Well, yes the first time is easy. But what I need is... kinda like Twitter, one textbox, multiple labels. Each entry into the textbox will populate a new label (an empty the textbox) without loosing the labels that currently hold data that has previously been entered.

C# - How To Adjust Size Of Programatically Created Bitmap To Match Text Drawn On It

May 7, 2010

I have the following .ashx page that takes some query string parameters and returns a bitmap with the specified text written on it. The problem I have is that I am currently just manually setting the initial size of the bitmap at 100 X 100 when what I really want is to have the bitmap be just big enough to include all the text that was written to it. How can I do this?

DataSource Controls :: Match One Input Parameter With One Of Multiple Values?

Jun 10, 2010

I have 3 tables as follows:

1 - Members containing the following fields:

MemberID int
MemberName

2 - Companies containing the following:

CompanyID int
CompanyName

CompanyType (S=Supplier, R=Retailer, C=Competitor)

3 - Member_Company_Link containing the following:

MemberID int
CompanyID int

The Company table contains any Company with a potential relationship to a "Member". For example:

Companyabc = C (Competitor)
Companyxyz = S (Supplier)

When a new Member record is entered, the user selects from two dropdowns: CompanyType (Supplier, Retailer,Competitor); and CompanyName. The CompanyName dropdown is populated depending on the value selected for CompanyType so if the user selects "Supplier" for CompanyType then only those Companies with a CompanyType of "S" for Supplier will be listed in the CompanyName dropdown.

The use can enter up to 10 CompanyType/CompanyName combinations. When the record is saved, these CompanyType/CompanyName combinations are saved in the Member_Company_Link table. One record for each CompanyType/CompanyName combination is entered in the table.

The problem I'm having is in the retrieval process. I have a "search" screen in which users can select certain criteria to list Members by and one of them is CompanyName. For example they want to see all Member records with "company xyz" as a Supplier and/or "companyabc" as a Competitor. Because each Member can have multiple Supplier and/or Comptitor records I can't figure out how to loop through them to match on the value entered by the user. If Member1 has 5 corresponding records in theMember_Company_Link file and 4 of them contain Companies that are Competitors (Competitor1, Competitor2, Competitor3 and Competitor4) and the search criteria is to find records containing "Competitor3" how can I loop through the values in the Member_Company_Link file for each MemberID to see if there is a match for "Competitor3"?

I know this post is too long and most of you will have ignored it by now but I'm hoping someone will have a clue because I've already spent more than a day trying to figure it out. It seems I have to store multiple values in an array but I have no clue how to do this.

AJAX :: ComboBox User Input Overwritten On Partial Match?

Mar 4, 2010

Having an issue with the combobox overwriting the user input if there is a partial match.

[Code]....

If there is a record such as "NETEX" and the user types in "New Item", an item not in the data source, then the value is "NEw Item". If the user goes back to change the "E" to "e", it replaces the entire line with "NETEX".

Using CaseSensitive="true" is not an option as the user would have to capiltalize the beginning of every input to get hits, allowing for case-sensitive duplicates.

Have tried DropDownStyle="Simple" and all flavors of AutoCompleteMode to no success.

Web Forms :: Dynamically Changing Size Of Content Placeholder Based On Browser Size?

Oct 14, 2010

I know the content palcehlder does not have a size ,I have a masterpage and content page, the master page has a table with a header, content area, and footer, header and footer are fixed size, content area is 100%. As the user sizes the browser the content area grows and shrinks and the footer stays at the
bottom of the browser window - perfect!

Problem: The contentpalceholder does not grow to fill the available content area. Now, the contentplaceholder gets its size from its contents, which in this case is a div holding a silverlight object.I was thinking I could hook the master or child page's re-size event and somehow pass that info onto the SL object, but as it turns out (and I'm surprised I never knew this) there is no aps.net page re-size event! (really?, wow.)

So is there a way to get a SL object hosted on a master page to size itself based on the size of the browser window?Or more generally, a way to size the contents (like a div or panel) of a contentplaceholder based on the browser? on a standard aspx page (not a master page) I CAN get the SL object to size itself based on the broswer, the problem seems to come from the fact that I'm hosting the SL object in a content placeholder.

I guess I could 'unroll' the master page into several standalone pages and have it work, but the menu is on the master page and I'm used to using them, plus it's already done...<sigh>

Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Does Maintain Template Entry In Textbox?

Mar 11, 2010

I have Gridview that is populated from a data table, there are two additional template columns which are not bound (one checkbox and one textbox). I intend for the users to fill data in the unbound textbox and check the checkbox as needed. (there really is a good reason why the data is constructed in this way)

here is the problem, when the user enteres data into the textbox and hits enter, the gridview appears to postback, which wipes out the checkbox and the data in the textbox.

I tried setting the enable view state of the grid to false, that was supposed to stop postback but no luck. I have the enable view state of the textbox and checkbox set to true and autopostback set to false. but still no luck

so I need to either stop the postback or intercept the enter key in the text box and cancel the action, but that is a bit beyond me at this point

Forms Data Controls :: Dynamically Alter The Page Size In A Paged Gridview Based On Data In A Particular Column?

Dec 14, 2010

I've already searched to no avail for an answer to this question:is it possible to dynamically alter the page size in a paged gridview based on data in a particular column?In other words,let's say I get data from a table that lists students enrolled in a particular course.If there are 10 students in Course "A," then I want page 1 in my gridview to show 10 records.

If there are 15 students in Course "B," then I want page 2 in my gridview to show those 15 records,and so on.I imagine that this could probably be done with a master-detail kind of set up,but let's say for the sake of argument that I don't want to go that route.
