How To Prevent AutoPostBack When DropDownlist Is Selected Using JQuery

Jul 21, 2010

I want to show a confirm dialog when the user selects an item in a DropDownList. If the user presses "Cancel", I want to stop the postback. Here is the function I add to the onchange event:

function imitateConfirmUnload(event) {
if (window.onbeforeunload = null)
return true;

return confirm("Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page?

You have unsaved changes

Press OK to continue or Cancel to stay on the current page.");
}

And this is the relevant bit of code in my startup script to add the handler to the event:

[code]...

The problem is that the postback occurs even if the user selects "Cancel". If I move the handler on to the click event, it works. But it feels clunky to me.

Edit

Correction: it doesn't work onclick, because the dialog prevents selection, so when the user selects OK, no change has taken place, and no postback when you want it!

Edit 2

The DropDownList is inside an UpdatePanel so that may affect behavior.

Web Forms :: Prevent The Firing Of Index Changed Event In A Dropdownlist When 'NO' Is Selected?

Mar 20, 2011

I have a simple query based on the index changed event of a dropdownlist in ASP.NET. The scenario is i have a dropdown list bearing a collection of items (say ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE) with the default value selected as 'ONE'. Now, when the client changes the index (say the client selects 'TWO'), a confirmation box is prompted asking 'Are you sure want to change the index?' with the buttons YES & NO. Now, the problem is, if YES button is clicked then its working fine as the index is changed. But when NO button is clicked in the confirmation box, I do not want the index to be changed to 'TWO' and it should be holding the previously selected value which was 'ONE'. How can I do this? For which event should I write the code, as I cant think of writing the code for the IndexChanged event because here the index change has already occured and since there is no 'IndexChanging' event in ASP.NET, where shall i write the code

Why Does Autopostback From Button Click Duplicate Part Of URL / Prevent The Duplication?

Nov 10, 2010

Example: url is [URL]

I click an asp:Button which cause a postback, but now the url comes up:

[URL]

There is nothing special in the button, just id and runat.

This only happens when I start with the "/88" in the starting url?

Why, and how can I prevent the duplication. After the postback I want the url to be the same as when started.

RenderControl Method Not Rendering Autopostback For Dropdownlist?

Mar 12, 2010

why asp.net does not render a dropdownlist with the autopostback property set to true when using the RenderControl method.

eg

Dim sw As New IO.StringWriter
Dim tw As New HtmlTextWriter(sw)
Dim table As New Table

[Code]...

my output renders the dropdown list without the onchange="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack(ddl1','')', 0)" that is generated by asp.net when using the dropdownlist normally.

AJAX :: Cascading DropDownlist / Autopostback To Get The Value Of The Album GUId

Sep 4, 2010

I really have no idea on this problem on the cascading dropdownlist. I have a cascading dropdownlist that bind with calling the web services.

I wan to do a autopostback to get the value of the Album GUId so that i can query out all the photo list of that album. it is working well if my page without the AlbumGUId query string.

my problem is:

when i redirect from other page and passing the Album GUId querystring to this page, it will display all my photo for this album guid. but when i change the album to Select which should be able to display all the Photos, it cannot display out. It only will work is when i choose another album and then go back to Select then it only can work..

DropDownList AutoPostback Fires When Asynchronous Postback Occurrs?

Aug 26, 2010

Well I have a strange problem.I have a page with 2 DropDownLists on it and a custom web-user-control. The custom web user control has an UpdatePanel within it, and an Ajax Timer control within the UpdatePanel to periodically update a listing of stuff.When I "drop-down" one of the DropDownLists and hover over (not click on) an option while the Timer control within the UpdatePanel asynchronously posts back to the server, the DropDownList "autopostbacks" to the server!

I'm trying to figure out why an asynchronous postback would cause the DropDownList to act as if I selected/clicked on an option so that I can find a way around this issue.Now it's really simple to reproduce this problem. Create a Web User control called "TimerUpdatedListing"...this is the ASPX code markup for the web user control:

<%@ Control Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="TimerUpdatedListing.ascx.vb" Inherits="MyNamespace.TimerUpdatedListing" %>
<div style="width: 150px; height: 150px; overflow: auto; border: solid 1px navy;">
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="anUpdatePanel" runat="server">

State Management :: Disabling ViewState For DropDownList And Using AutoPostback With SelectedIndexChanged?

Dec 3, 2010

The sites I mantain are using way too much ViewState and I'd like to reduce that so the size of the page is reduced. I've done a lot to remedy this but I have an issue relating to DropDown lists that use AutoPostbacks.I have a dropdown list with a lot of list items and a good part of the ViewState usage is to hold the list item data. If I disable ViewState and set the AutoPostBack property to true, the page will post back and in the page load I am trying to repopulate the dropdown list with cached data. However, it seems that the SelectedIndexChanged event doesn't fire when EnableViewState="false".Is it possible to make this work without enabling ViewState for the drodown list?

Forms Data Controls :: DropDownList And AutoPostBack: IE8 Vs Chrome And Firefox?

Feb 18, 2011

I have a DropDownList in a GridView with AutoPostBack="true" and on SelectedIndexChanged fires an event.

[Code]....

Everything works fine across browsers as long as the user is scrolling through the DropDownList using a mouse.In IE8, things start to go haywire when the user is navigating the DropDownList using up/down arrows on the keyboard. The SelectedIndexChange event is fired with nearly every up/down key pressed. In Firefox 3 and Chrome 9, the behavior is more like what I would expect, that the event isn't fired until the user stops on DropDownList selection and hits the enter key.

Is there something that I should be doing in IE, short of setting AutoPostBack="false", so that the event is fired every time the up/down arrows are used on the keyboard?

Jquery - Delay A AutoPostBack So JavaScript Fires First?

Mar 2, 2010

I've got an odd situation with a text box and an autocomplete setup on my page. I'm using a JQuery based autocomplete on a text box that has AutoPostBack="True". This works perfect if I use the keyboard to select an autocomplete item, which then fires Jquery to fill in the text box, and then when I tab out of the box the AutoPostBack fires. If, however, I click on an autocomplete item, my text box loses focus first and the AutoPostBack fires before the Jquery has a chance to change the text in my text box. Is there a way to delay either the PostBack or the Jquery so that they don't fight each other? I'm thinking it may have to be the PostBack that gets changed, since the JQuery would lose it's state on the PostBack
