How To Retrieve XML Data Using XPath Expression
Oct 19, 2010
I have a XMLDataSource somewhat like:
<bookstore>
<author>author1</author>
<publication>publication1</publication>
<book>
<genre>Thriller</genre>
<name>ABC</name>
</book>
<book>
<genre>Romance</genre>
<name>XYZ</name>
</book>
<book>
<genre>Horror</genre>
<name>000</name>
</book>
</bookstore>
I am storing these in a asp:formview. I am able to store author and publication values but not sure how can I store the value of book/name based on some condition? Actually I just want to use condition that I need to store the value of "name" if "genere=Romance". something like this. I tried using XPath expression bookstore/book/genre[. ='Romance'] but not sure how to access the value of tag. Checked the following resource:

I think I am struggling with something that may not be entirely relevant to XPath, but this is the function I am trying to use. I have a code snippet here that works,
[Code]....
It prints out: Items for page 1 is: 1 to 10. What have I missed here regarding this issue?

I have a big problem...I have made a page has a Data FormView controland the insert template of this Formview control has DropDownList to allow the user to choose section (SectionsDDList)..and there's also another DropDownList allow the user to choose a teacher (TeachersDDList)...more infothe SectionsDDList get the section list from SqlDataSource control which the "Select Command" of is:"SELECT section_id,section_id FROM sections"the TeachersDDList get the teachers list from another SqlDataSource control which the "Select Command" of is:"SELECT teacher_id,teacher_name FROM teachers WHERE (section_id = @section_id)"finallyI want the TeachersDDList to be filled with teachers according to the selected section from the SectionsDDList...So,I enable the Auto postBack function of the SectionsDDListand add the next code for the SectionsDDList_SelectedIndexChanged event:TeachersDataSource.SelectParameters["section_id"].DefaultValue = ((DropDownList)sender).SelectedValue;be aware that both of the SectionsDDList & TeachersDDList have been Bounding to a column...and the problem I have faced is that:Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.maybe you want to know the Stack Trace:[InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.]

I write inline expression and binding expression in the server head section:
[Code]....
[Code]....
But both kinds of expression aren't parsed or executed except the ResovleUrl menthod. The html renders like this:
<head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<%= Request.ApplicationPath %>themes/style1.css" /><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<%# Request.ApplicationPath %>themes/style2.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/themes/style3.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jwork.js"></script>
</head>
As I know, the inline expression in the attributes of server control can't be parsed but the binding expression should if we invoke the DataBind method. But the above case breaks the rule.

I'm trying to use the validator to work on a email form to ensure that they enter a valid from email address. That part works. I also want to add to the expression the text that I pre-populate in the txtbox ("Enter your email address") so on postback, after sending the message, I can clear the fields and repopulate that box.
How do I add that wording to the current expression: w+([-+.']w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)*

I'm creating page to put together a list of cinema trailers on an asp.net web page inside of a repeater.
The source of the data is an online XML feed.
To do this I'm binding the repeater as follows...
string XML_FEED_URL = "http://some-cinema-feed.com/comingsoon/";
XmlDataSource data_source = new XmlDataSource();
data_source.DataFile = XML_FEED_URL;
data_source.XPath = "/movies/movie[position() > 0 and position() < 3]";
this.moviePreciewsRepeater.DataSource = data_source;
this.moviePreciewsRepeater.DataBind();
The issue is that the length of the feed changes regularly and rather than selecting a range of movies with the XPATH (i.e. 1-3 in the XML) I need to select 3 totally random movies from the XML and bind this back to the repeater.

JQuery supports a syntax of $("span[id$='Label1']") to allow selection of ASP.NET INamingContainer generated ID's that have been prefixed with "ct100$...".
We are using Selenium and are looking for a similar way to select elements, ignoring the prefixes that ASP.NET generates.

I have a listbox element in aspx page which id is attributesList.
I want to select this element to track its change event, but i cant directly select its id because asp.net changes its id on runtime.
its id, attributesList changes into ctl00_adminPlaceHolder_attributesList.
so what i want to do is to use a "contains" xpath expression to select the element.

i have a FormView, it renders fields from a SQLServer database but also much static text specific to the database value I get. I dont know if this can be done in the code behind and put all this in a function . I put it in my formview
<ItemTemplate>
<% If Eval("Feature1") = "Yes" Then %>
<%# Eval("Username") %> A lot of text
<% elseIf Eval("Feature1") = "No" Then %>
<%# Eval("Username") %>
A lot of different text
<% End If %>
</ItemTemplate>
If I do the code above I get error message:
Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control. Can this be done within the formview?

gives me error: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.
I could write : <%# Eval("SaveDate") != DBNull.Value ? do magic But I need to do lots of html magic in if statement.
I know I should add # in order to use Eval, but not sure about correct syntax.

i have to check if an input string is valid based on the given regular expression.. this is the regular expression.
(a(bb+aaa+((ab)*bb+(aba)*aa)(a+b)*) + (b(aa+bbb+((ba)*aa+(bab)*bb)(a+b)*)
+ is an OR
* is a LOOP, it is optional, it may be done as many as a user wants.
i've tried many ways to solve the problem that my professor gave me but my knowledge isn't that enough to solve this problem..
