Processing Variable Number Of Form Fields?

May 17, 2010

I am working on a form which displays information about orders. Each order has a unique id, but they are not necessarily sequential on the form. Also, the number of fields can vary (one field per row on the form). The input into the form will not be mapped straight into the database, but will be added to the current value in the database, and then saved. An example of the form is in the picture below - the callout on the right shows the id for each row.

I know how to generate the form like this, but I can't work out how I can easily process each of these rows reliably. I also know how to give each of the fields a unique identifier, like name="order-23" or name="order[23]", but how can I translate that name so that I can update the related record in the database?

Handling Variable Number Of Fields In WebForms Page?

Dec 1, 2010

I wanted to gather some methods on how to add a variable number of fields to my form (with Add New and Remove buttons). I know that ASP.NET MVC has easy methods, but I'm unable to find any easy methods for WebForms.

Here's what I've used so far:

Adding a new UserControl to a PlaceHolder on PostBack (I've had to fiddle with ViewState to make this work correctly, huge pain) Adding a new row to a grid and having a template field in a grid (works decently but kind of awkward) Actually having several fields on the form by default and hiding/showing them dynamically (fairly easy but you have a set number of fields.)

C# - Creating A List Of Dataset Fields And Form Fields For Easy Updating?

Feb 25, 2011

I have a relatively complex dataset (numerous tables, some with multiple records) generated from reading in an XML file. I need to connect said dataset fields to an ASP form. At the moment I'm assigning them manually, like so in the pageload:

txt_first_init.Text = formData.ds.Tables["phrmHdrKey"].Rows[0]["first_init"].ToString();
txt_last_name.Text = formData.ds.Tables["phrmHdrKey"].Rows[0]["last_name"].ToString();
ddl_pregnancy_flag.SelectedValue = formData.ds.Tables["pPhrm"].Rows[0]["pregnancy_flag"].ToString();

And conversely when it's time to submit.

formData.ds.Tables["phrmHdrKey"].Rows[0]["first_init"] = txt_first_init.Text;
formData.ds.Tables["phrmHdrKey"].Rows[0]["last_name"] = txt_last_name.Text;
formData.ds.Tables["pPhrm"].Rows[0]["pregnancy_flag"] = ddl_pregnancy_flag.SelectedValue.ToString();

I did some looking into binding the textboxes (and dropdownlists, and checkboxes, and and and...) directly, but it seemed to be too many formats to use.

So this works fine, but as the number of fields increases, those load and unload lists are going to get unwieldy.

C# - Intercept An HTML Form Post And Do Some Processing Before Sending It To It's Final Destination?

May 21, 2010

I'm trying to extend the functionality of an ASP.net application that I'm working with. For its logon page, it uses an html form to post to a dll to handle it's login logic. I'm wondering if there is any way to redirect that html POST to my C# code so that I can do some processing and then (and this is the part that I haven't figured out yet) POST it to the dll so that the regular logon logic can continue. I can make changes to the logon page, but the final step must be to do an HTML POST to the dll. I can't change that.

Web Forms :: Add Variable Number Of Some Control?

Apr 7, 2010

I have a project with a database. There is a table in the database which store news. The news are composed by a headline and a link to a web page where you can read the news.

I want to make a unordered list, where, for each element in a database table, there will be a line in the list, with the news headline displayed by a Label control followed by a Hyperlink control that takes you to the news webpage.

How can I construct a page with a variable number of controls?

I was doing something like this:

<% foreach(News news in NewsTable) { %>
<asp:Label ...></Label>
<asp:HyperLink ...></HyperLink>
<% } %>

But the result of this is that I have the same Label and HyperLink drawed several times.

Use C# To Iterate Form Fields With Same Name?

Apr 5, 2010

I have a section of a form that I need to handle differently from the rest of form results. In the section that needs special handling I need to iterate over 3 form fields that have the same name. They have to have the same name, I can't change it. The section of the form I am referring to looks something like this:

<td><input name="Color" size="20" value="" type="text"></td>
<td><input name="Color" size="20" value="" type="text"></td>
<td><input name="Color" size="20" value="" type="text"></td>

Using C# I try something like this:

I try to handle it like this:

int i;
for (i = 1; i <= Request.Form["Color"][i]; i++)
{
colorName.Text += Request.Form["Color"];
}

Which leads to the following exception:

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

How should I be handling form fields with the same name?

Forms Data Controls :: Embeb A Variable Number Of Videos?

And we have seen all these in a user registration form. But what if I want to add more fields to it.

How do I add these fields into my registration page. I have heard of something called profile. But how do I intergrate profile into this, if this is what we use to add more fields to user registraiton page. share a sample working code of user registrtion page with more fields.

MVC :: What's The Best Way To Create Form Fields Dynamically

Nov 14, 2010

New to .net and revamping a project from classic. In short, I am trying to create all the form fields in the view based on the database and want to figure out the best practice for .net. I've tried a few things but none seem very clean.

So basically select all the fields and data from the database and loop through each record creating the field type(text, drop down ect)/name/onchange event ect along with creating the basic layout, like putting in a column or group a set related fields.

I see how it can be done in the view itself, but there is a bunch of logic required that would be better suited for a function or class more than a bunch of if then elses in the view itself.

Just for context, it's for a real estate investment management project. So there are over 1000 fields that represent information on a house. What the end user see's is based on their choices and their security. Also, all the fields save with the onchange event which is tied to the name of the field. So everything is dynamic.

How To Clear All Form Fields From Code-behind

Apr 10, 2010

HTML has an input button type to reset all fields in a form to their initial state in one step: <input type="reset" ... />.

Is there a similar simple way to reset all form fields of an aspx page from code-behind? Or is it necessary to reset all controls one by one with TextBox1.Text=string.Empty, TextBox2.Text=string.Empty, etc. ?

Update:

Context is a simple Contact/"Send us a message" page with 8 asp:TextBoxes on the page (where the user enters the name, address, phone, email, message, etc.). Then he clicks on submit, the Onclick message handler in code-behind sends an email to some administrator, and all the form fields the user filled in should be emptied and he gets a notification in a label ("Message sent blabla..."). I want to have the form fields cleared to avoid that the user clicks again on submit and the same message is sent a second time.
