MVC :: DropDownList And TemplateInfo Not Selecting Proper Value?

Feb 22, 2010

I am having trouble with DropDownList (and/or DropDownListFor) when using TemplateInfo's HtmlFieldPrefix in a strongly-typed view. DropDownList properly selects the value from the model when the prefix hos not been site. Once I set the value of HtmlFieldPrefix, the value from the model is not selected in the drop-down list.

I am using .NET 3.5SP1 and ASP.NET MVC 2 RC2.

Model:

public class TestModel
{
public string Text { get; set; }
public string Option { get; set; }

[Code]....

Is there something I should be doing differently to have the proper value selected in the drop-down list?

Proper Way To Populate Dropdownlist Based Off Another Value?

Dec 21, 2010

I'm running into a minor issue with some ASP.Net code I'm working on. For simplicity sake lets say I have two dropdownlists, one that is full of various items and another that is full of other items, but based off the selected item of the first dropdownlist. I currently set variables into hidden inputs to check to see if the item in the first dropdownlist has changed and if it has to change the second dropdownlist, but I'm also having to check to make sure that if something else causes a postback to NOT repopulate the second dropdownlist as to not lose what is currently selected by the user. This check also allows me to make sure that when I navigate away from the page, the correct values are selected and not something replaced by a postback repopulation.

I'm new to ASP.Net/HTML/CSS/Javascript and the like. I know while what I have works, it isn't even close to being the correct way to do things. correct my ways and figure out the BEST way to solve this current problem. Some good ASP.Net tutorial websites would be nice too as I need to keep improving my skills with it.

Forms Data Controls :: What Would Be The Proper Format For A DropDownList Sender

Jan 14, 2011

I have a FormView with the ItemTemplate and InsertItemTemplate populated. In the InsertItem template, What I am trying to do is that when a user click on the DropDownList and selects the item from the list that they want, it Populates to a TextBox.

I have tried the SelectedIndexChanged event however It does not seem to fire the event.

My questions are;

What would be the proper format for a DropDownList Sender? e.g. I have tried this;

DropDownList ddlProjectYear = (DropDownList)sender;

What is the correct syntax for the FindControl? e.g. and I have tried this;

[Code]....

[Code]....

What would be the correct event that I should be using to have the SelectedValue of the DropDownList show up in the TextBox.Text?

DropDownList For A Collection Not Selecting Value?

Mar 28, 2011

i'm using a strongly typed view with a custom viewmodel. this viewmodel contains a collection of books.

public IList<Books> Books { get; private set; }

i'm also passing a select-list to the view. however the DropDownListFor helper class doesn't automatically preselect the default value of the book.

@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, Model.Author as SelectList)

everything else works, e.g. it does pass the selected value back to the controller.

i figured out a workaround by creating the select list in the viewmodel:

@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, new SelectList(Model.AuthorList, "Value", "Text", @Model.Books[i].AuthorID.ToString()))

however i don't want to implement this workaround if there is a simpler solution. is there a way that the view can handle values from a collection?

VS 2010 - Selecting A Parameter From A Dropdownlist?

Aug 4, 2010

I have a drop-down list that is dynamically filled with a set of values. By viewing the source code in the browser I can tell that this list is correctly filled with the "value" and "text" parameters.

But if I try to retrieve the value using ddl.SelectedItem.Value I get the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" which means that there is no parameter in "value" to retrieve ...

Page_Load() contains an "If Not IsPagePostback" in which the list is filled. I don't want to use AutoPostback = True since I want to retrieve the value-parameter when I click a "save" button. I must have missed something fundamental here that I do not grasp ...

The code to fill the list looks like this:

Code:
Dim ds as Dataset ()
ds.ReadXml(the path to an xml file)
ddl.Items.Add(New ListItem("destination", "destination"))
ddl.DataSource = ds.Tables(0).DefaultView
ddl.DataBind()

This snippet does not generate any errors: Everything is printed as it should!

But inside my Submit function I cannot be retrieve the parameter:

Code:

objcmd.parameter.add("?destination ", OdbcType.VarChar).Value = ddl.SelectedItem.Value

Selecting Item In Incapsulated DropDownList On DataBind?

Feb 15, 2010

I have a complex UserControl with the main purpose to encapsulate DropDownList with a number of properties for advanced manipulation.

List is being populated on PreRender event depending on properties previously were set:

protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
sourceClient.SelectCommand = this.Property1 ? "exec a" : "exec b";
}

The most used property is ClientID:

[Category("Settings")]
public int ClientID
{
get
{
return Int32.Parse(DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value);
}
set
{
DropDownList1.Items.FindByValue(value).Selected = true;
}
}

Getter commonly is being called by ControlPameters in SqlDataSources on pages with this control.

Setter - from markup: <uc:UserControl1 runat="server" ClientID='<%# Bind("ID") %>' />.

Why does setter from Bind is called earlier then PreRender? And DropDownList is empty and item selecting doesn't work! How to workaround this behavior?

RangeValidator Not Working When Selecting DropDownList Value Using JQuery?

Jul 2, 2010

I inherited a site which I am in the middle of updating which has a DropDownList and a RangeValidator assigned to it. The data is bound to the dropdown on Page_Load. The values are retrieved from the database so the value property of each item is set to the unique ID of the item in the DB.

The RangeValidator looks something like:

<asp:rangevalidator id="ddRangeValidator" runat="server" ControlToValidate="ddMenu" ErrorMessage="Please select value in range" MinimumValue="1" MaximumValue="100000" Type="Integer">*</asp:rangevalidator>

I have a method which automatically populates this value in jQuery e.g.

$("#ddMenu").val("An Option");

This works, however, when I try to post the page the range validation fails. Then even if I manually select that value, or select another valid value it still won't validate. The only way to make it validate is to select non-valid value and then re-selecting a valid one.

Here is the data binding code:

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load, Me.Load

If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
Dim ds As New DataSet()
Dim myDbObject As New myDbObject()
ds = myDbObject.ToDataSet() // retrieves all objects from the database

Forms Data Controls :: DropDownList Is Only Selecting The Default Value?

Oct 11, 2010

The intension is to get the all text file names in the drop down present in a particular location. When a user selects any filename from the drop down, it will show the data which is in that particular text file in a GridView.

I've done both the steps and it's almost complete but i stuck on a small issue. Probably because of non-usage of ASP.NET for a long period of time. The problem is, the drop down only selects the default value not other values.Here's my code for DropDown Selected Index Change

protected void DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@"C:myLogs");

Custom Model Binder For DropDownList Not Selecting Correct Value?

Sep 4, 2010

i've created my own custom model binder to handle a Section DropDownList defined in my view as:

Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.Category.Section, new SelectList(Model.Sections, "SectionID", "SectionName"), "-- Please Select --")

And here is my model binder:

public class SectionModelBinder : DefaultModelBinder
{
public override object BindModel(ControllerContext controllerContext, ModelBindingContext bindingContext)
{
var value = bindingContext.ValueProvider.GetValue(bindingContext.ModelName);
if (bindingContext.ModelType.IsAssignableFrom(typeof(Section)) && value != null)
{
if (Utilities.IsInteger(value.AttemptedValue))
return Section.GetById(Convert.ToInt32(value.AttemptedValue));
else if (value.AttemptedValue == "")
return null;
}
return base.BindModel(controllerContext, bindingContext);
}
}

Now within my controller i can say:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Create(FormCollection collection)
{
var category = new Category();
if (!TryUpdateModel(category, "Category")
return View(new CategoryForm(category, _sectionRepository().GetAll()));
}

This validates nicely and the correct value for the section is assigned when the model is updated, however it does not select the correct value if another property doesn't validate.

The Proper Use Of EnsureChildControls()?

Sep 21, 2010

Most often I use it when I am accessing a property of a composite control that depends on a child control.But I have also added it to OnInit of a control so I could make sure a hidden field was added correctly. Just a minute ago I called it in RenderControl because I was having an issue rendering a calendar extender and it fixed it. I am starting to get a little confused on when I need to and when I don't need to call EnsureChildControls and when I should call it.
