View 6 RepliesI have a C# web application that dynamically adds user controls to the default page for whatever "mode" the application is in. The problem is that it is not persisting these across postbacks. How do I persist these across postbacks and keep the content of the controls that are in the user control?
For instance, say I have a user control that creates a new tour record. The user clicks on the Tour item from the menu on the default page, it dynamically loads the tours user control. The user then fills out the form in the tours user control and clicks save. This is where the problem happens. When the postback occurs, the web application has no idea that the new tours user control was ever loaded. So, no save takes place because the Save button's click event never even gets fired.
In my base class:
[code]....
In my user control that inherits from BaseUsercontrol The ascx has:
<asp:Button id="btnTest" runat="server" OnClick="OnButtonClick" />
Why can't I use the hidden input variable this way?
I need a way to save and load the Page State in a persistent manner (Session). The Project i need this for is an Intranet Web Application which has several Configuration Pages and some of them need a Confirmation if they are about to be saved. The Confirmation Page has to be a seperate Page. The use of JavaScript is not possible due to limitations i am bound to. This is what i could come up with so far:
[code]....
I can't seem to find a way to load the Page State after being redirected from the Confirmation.aspx to the PageToConfirm.aspx.
On page1.aspx i hava a textbox with id="tb1"
On page2.aspx I have a textbox with id="tb2"
page2.aspx is set as postbackurl for page1.aspx. For both labels enabl;eViewState is true. Shouldn't the text I write in page1 also appear in the label on page2? Can I implement this without looking into Request headers, and setting the text myself?
I bind textbox to a property of an object. After running the app, if the value of textbox is changed, I expect the object to update this property .This does not happen. I also understand that I am recreating the object from viewstate on postback, which is wrong. how to persist the state of object on postbacks all.

I ve been searching for this on various forums and came through a number of supposed solutions which didnt work for me.
My web form works perfectly for me when on development and after publishing on IIS but when I try to access remotely the session value is always null.
I do these things in the following order and when accessing remotely I always get the exception i throw when session is null.
I debugged it and my list is never null when reaching the assignment point.
[code]....
in webconfig I have the following tag which I saw as an answer in many forums
<sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="true" timeout="200" />

I am using Wizard Contorl in one of my project, I want to maintain the state of the wizard control at any step .Let me explain further , let suppose when user is at Step 4 out of Step 10 and then user would close the browser so the state should be persisted and when the user come back again to the same URL the step would be 4.

Just wondering whether or not Session Variables that are declared and set while in a HTTP session will continue to exist if the users session moves to HTTPS?
View 4 RepliesIn the Page_Load() event handler for one of my pages I use the new statement about 100 times equating to memory allocation for about 100 objects. As follows:
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
Table mytable1 = new Table();
TableRow [] myrows = new TableRow[5];
TableCell [] mycells = new TableCell[100];
int i;
for(i=0; i<5; i++) myrows[i] = new TableRow();
for(i=0; i<100; i++) mycells[i] = new TableCell();
My question is, should all of these new statements be enclosed like so:
if(IsPostBack==false) {
// Initialize all controls for page just once during the session
}
Or should the Controls be freshly allocated, initialized, and added to the page each time the Page_Load event handler is called? I personally don't think its efficient to create mytable from scratch every Page_Load since all I really ever change is the contents of the table and not the table itself.
I have an object to hold some specific state information in my web application - I pass it back & forward between pages by making it a property of a basepage which works fine, but I lose it on postback.
Is there any way to persist this property without manually adding & reading it again from viewstate?
I have a simple ASP page with databound grid (bound to an object source). The grid is within the page of a wizard and has a 'select' checkbox for each row.
In one stage of the wizard, I bind the GridView:
protected void Wizard1_NextButtonClick(object sender, WizardNavigationEventArgs e)
{
// Bind and display matches
GridViewMatches.EnableViewState = true;
GridViewMatches.DataSource = getEmailRecipients();
GridViewMatches.DataBind();
And when the finish button is clicked, I iterate through the rows and check what's selected:
protected void Wizard1_FinishButtonClick(object sender, WizardNavigationEventArgs e)
{
// Set the selected values, depending on the checkboxes on the grid.
foreach (GridViewRow gr in GridViewMatches.Rows)
{
Int32 personID = Convert.ToInt32(gr.Cells[0].Text);
CheckBox selected = (CheckBox) gr.Cells[1].FindControl("CheckBoxSelectedToSend");
But at this stage GridViewMatches.Rows.Count = 0! I don't re-bind the grid, I shouldn't need to, right? I expect the view-state to maintain the state. (Also, if I do rebind the grid, my selection checkboxes will be cleared)
NB: This page also dynamically adds user controls in OnInit method. I have heard that it might mess with the view state, but as far as I can tell, I am doing it correctly and the viewstate for those added controls seems to work (values are persisted between postbacks)
UPDATE: Could this be to do with the fact I am setting the datasource programatically? I wondered if the asp engine was databinding the grid during the page lifecycle to a datasource that was not yet defined. (In a test page, the GridView is 'automatically' databound'. I don't want the grid to re-bound I just want the values from the viewstate from the previous post!
Also, I have this in the asp header: ViewStateEncryptionMode="Never" - this was to resolve an occasional 'Invalid Viewstate Validation MAC' message
For reference, my GridView is defined as follows:

I'm working on a webform with various controls. Depending on user-input I show/hide (using JQuery's show()/hide() functions) bits of the GUI. However if the form is posted-back and fails validation, I want the GUI to remain in the same state it was pre-postback rather than returning to the first-load state. Obviously the ASP.Net controls retain state, but I have HTML containers that are pure client-side objects.
In attempting to design a solution I find myself heading towards the murky (and tricky-to-debug) realms of hidden form fields - more reminiscent of my pre-JQuery work than anything 21st Century :-(
1. I have couple of checkboxes and some text fields outside the updatepanel.
2. Based on the checkbox selection, I will be hiding/showing the fields to user using javscript.
3. I have a upload control in the same page which is placed under the updatepanel. When I upload the file, I will be reading the content of the file and I'm trying to load it into the controls which are outside the updatepanel. As I know the controls won't updated until unless it has been added under the updatepanel.
4. I moved all the controls outside the udpatepanel (checkboxes and textboxes) and placed it inside the updatepanel so that when the file is uploaded I can read the file and assign to the controls.
After this, I was able to assign the values to the control. However, the problem is, the state of the page (javascript hide and show) has not been retained during the postback. For example, if i have 2 checkboxes and 2 textboxes, if i click firstone, it should show the first checkbox. If I click the second checkbox, it will show the second textbox. By default, when the fresh load happens, first textbox will be shown. When I click the second checkbox (its showing the second textbox) and do the postback by uploading the file, the state gets lost and when the page load completes, it's showing the first textbox instead of showing the second textbox.
I am developing a web part that uses AJAX Timer and Update Panel to perform some data check. There are two buttons outside the Update Panel on the web part that I also want to maintain during the Timer postback. I cannot put these two buttons in any UpdatePanel because they need to call Response.Write() to display some Excel data to users in their On_Click event. My current solution is using ViewState to maintain these two button in On_Load event. However, I am not sure if this is a correct solution (haven't tested it). Does any one know that during a Timer postback, if I disable/enable these two buttons using ViewState in On_Load, will it update the page properly with the two buttons disabled/enabled? Or will it ignore any control that are not in the UpdatePanel regardless where you maintain it? If my solution is not a good practice, can someone suggest other alternatives?

Can i write some JavaScript to persist the state of a control?
1) I found that my viewstate was not being persisted across postbacks for web user controls. I ensured that the Enable Viewstate property was set to true (of the page)
2) The Viewstate isnt being persisted on the 1st postback.
3) However, it is being persisted from the 2nd postback onwards.
I stepped through the code to ensure that the Viewstate had the 2 keys that I was adding on page load. However, on the 1st postback, the viewstate is empty. Everything is ok from the 2nd postback onwards.

how can DropDownList attributes be persisted accross page Postbacks?
Example:
DropdownList1.AutoPostBack = True
DropdownList1.items(0).Attributes.Add("Attribute1","somevalue")
On Postback the attribute is no longer available (ie. attributes.count=0).
I tried persisting using the code below, but was unsuccessful:
Before PostBack: ViewState.Add("DDL","DropdownList1")
On PostBack: DropdownList1 = ViewState("DDL")
This generated the error: DropDownlist is not marked as serializable.
I than tried:
Before PostBack: Session.Add("DDL","DropdownList1")
On PostBack: DropdownList1 = Session("DDL")
This did not err but attributes were still not available.
I have a GridView control that has an ItemTemplate that contains an HTML radio button. In my code behind I am querying a database, retrieving a column of values, and then binding the list to the GridView. My problem is that the radio button that I select is not being persisted on post back. I have tried using an ASP RadioButton rather than an HTML control, but when I do that all of the radio button can be selected at the same time (i.e. like check boxes). how to persist the radio button that is selected in this scenario?
[Code]....
In a asp.net mvc form, im using a radiobutton set, to set a property.
<%=Html.RadioButton("Tipo", "Pizza",
CType(Model.Tipo = "Pizza", Boolean), New With {.id = "Pizza"})%>
<label for="Pizza">Tipo Pizza</label>
<%=Html.RadioButton("Tipo", "Barra",
CType(Model.Tipo = "Barra", Boolean), New With {.id = "Barra"})%>
<label for="Barra">Tipo Barra</label>
I need the CType or i get an overload error. This case seems like the most commom use of radiobutton when working with a Model property. Of course i could create a partial view or a control, but apart from that, is there a cleaner code to accomplish this?
