how do i change the layout of this template? I want to change the text and change the position of the textboxes.I know that I can customize it by calling individual fields and write hard-coding, but I am curious if there is a way to use EditorForModel() in easier.
I watched the intro video atleast 20 times trying to figure out how Phil used EditorForModel instead of the generated Edited fields when using Add View > View content(Edit).
How do you use a class (entity) instead of the generated fields?
i am working an asp.net mvc 2 web app using model metadata and some of the model metadata don't seem to work when using the default Html.EditorForModel().For example, when applying the DefaultValue(1) and the ReadOnly(true) attributes on a model field, the field displayed on edit view has zero for its default value and it is not read only.
I want to change the default view of Html Editor in asp.net using language as vb but i don't have any idea how to do it. Can any one tell me how to do it.
I don't know if this is possible but I would like to customize some of the HTML helpers autogenerated in the template. For example, I would like to replace the LabelFor with something that will allow me to specify an image with the label and also a ToolTip property so when you hover over the label you get the tool tip.
How can i use editorfromodel and dropdownlists that are to be populated by tables in my model? Seems i can use custom templates to format the major datatypes like datetime, string etc but i how can i manage select lists or dropdowns since i cant pass classes into editorformodel..
Is there a way to force a particular field to be formatted as a dropdownlist in editorformodel?
I am learning MVC using the v2 release with Entity Framework v4. Let's say I have 3 objects Game, Points and Players. They are related in the following manner:Game has points and the Points can have a player associated with them ( 1 Game to many Points and a Point object can have one Player).
I am attempting to use the EditTemplates feature in MVC2 to render my views. In my Game Edit view I want to have the basic Game object information editable, and also the related Points objects. Currently I am utilizing "`<%= Html.EditorForModel() %>`"(Which seems pretty slow) to render the Edit View and then I have a specific Game and Point EditTemplates.
The data renders correctly and is editable for both the Game and Point information. When I go to perform the update and submit the form I receive the "Game" object in my Update ActionResult. The basic properties are populated for the Game object but any deep properties such as Points are not; they appear as null. If I look at the Request.Form variables in debug I can see the Points fields are being passed to the server but do not place themselves back into the Game object.
In my Game EditTemplate I am using the following to render the Points objects:
<%= Html.EditorFor(c => c.Points) %>
My Points EditTemplate looks like: [code]...
why this is rendering as "Points.Points[index] instead of Points[index]? I tried messing with the parameters in the EditFor:
How can I use DisplayForModel in a loop with a View for which I've passed a collection of objects? That is, within the loop I want to call DisplayForModel each time for the specific object (not the collection). Or does MVC not currently support this?
So I'll like to be able to do something like in the below, but this itself doesn't work.
I've been tinkering with the Nerddinner tutorial (upgraded to the new MVC 2.0 version actually) and I am trying to figure out how to dynamically hide/show fields in the EditorForModel template.I have added a new field to the model and a dropdown list for it in the editor, and I would like to be able to toggle the visibility on a couple of textboxes if a user selects a particular value from the dropdown list.
I did manage to access/manipulate the values of the textboxes using javascript (by altering the "onblur" example in the tutorial app), but couldn't figure out how to access the properties of them.
I have written an Enum extension method that allows me to create a view model and allows me to easily bind a generic Enum to a SelctList like:this.ProductStatusList = new ProductStatusTypes().BindToSelectList<ProductStatusTypes> (product.Status.ToString());
In my View I can then have:
<% using (Html.BeginForm()) {%> <fieldset> [code]...
Notice I am using EditorForModel and then a seperate DropDownList. My question is: Is there a way to get the EditorForModel to be clever enough to pick up that I want to use a SelectList instead of a TextBox for status?
I've written code that can make a phone dial a number from a function call, that's done and dusted. What I would like to achieve is adding a Dial button to each phone number field on the forms in Dynamics CRM. Eventually this could also create a new phone record fill in the basic details and show it to the user to enter notes and an outcome for the phone call, and perhaps some other workflow bits to schedule the next call.
Can I put a custom control on a standard form in place of the standard control. I'm assuming it would have to be an IFrame to an asp.net page, that pulls in the record id, and the field name, looks up the number to show in a text box, and passes the number to the DialNumber function. I assume its not going to be that easy... Has anyone tried this before, what's the process, what are the gotchas?
I have this requirement to display site sub menu items in horizontal direction instead of vertical.

Is it possible to allow a user to customize sections of our website to match their look and feel? For example, to modify logos and CSS, possibly pointing back to their site for the actual content. Ideally I would also like a third-party (ASP.NET) tool to manage this, rather than coding a hack myself.
Edited: I want a solution where a customer can just use a menu to modify the attributes they want, so that there is no need for me to interact with the customer at all.
I've been searching high and low trying to find out how to customize the AJAX Editor. I can create a custom aspx page and add the methods FillTopToolbar() and FillBottomToolbar(), but these don't seem to do a lot. In fact, if I leave the bottom one blank,I still get all three buttons in the bottom toolbar (even if I just add one or two of the buttons in the method as in some samples I've seen, I still get all three). I'd also like an image button, but everything keeps directing me to some OBout site, which, for all of its documentation, tells me absolutely nothing, except maybe that I have to buy their control. (I noticed their control has twice as many buttons on it.
I have usercontrol called as 'DateControl1' in which i have textbox and a calenderextender(ajax).I have written a property for my usercontrol as follows: public string DateFormat
{ get { return dateformat; } set { dateformat = value; } }
when i assign the format in my cs file as DateControl1.DateFormat = "dd-mm-yyyy", then this dateformat must be assigned to the built-in property of Calenderextender.Can anyone please tell how to do this in c# asp.net?
I have a page that contains information retrived from the database. It's a simple page. Inside the page I have in left side a panel with controls that will filter the result from the database; on the top I have the sumary of the information retrived from the database and the middle I have the data (it's a htmltable created dinamically). As I said, very simple.
The problem is that this page have to be customized per client. for example:
The client 1 have a logo (image 500x50), have a fotter with image (500x50).
The client 2 have only a logo (image 800x100) and wants that appears on the botton of left side, some information about stock market.
The client 3 have a oval logo and wants a background image with the colors of the company.
As you see, I have a core (the data from database + controls to filter) and all the pages have to be customized.
My question is:
How can I accomplish this task. Do I create per each client a specif XSLT to handle the HTML? Do I create per each client a customized Page (each page inside a specific directory)? Is there a way to accomplish this task using only one page even with specific layouts?
