View 1 RepliesI cannot get the Drag and Drop functionality of Web Parts is to work. I have a very simple test page with two WebPartZones.. In the OnInit method of the code behind I put the page in design mode. In the first zone I have a textbox.At runtime the text box renders as a web part. When I hover over the web part header my mouse pointer changes the 'move' pointer, but I cannot drag the item. I do not see it dragging and the part never moved. I am using Visual Studio 2010 with IE 8. I have tried IE8 in compatibility mode and regular mode. The results are the same. Here is the markup from my test page:
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:WebPartManager ID="WebPartManager1" runat="server">
</asp:WebPartManager>
<asp:WebPartZone ID="LEFT" runat="server">
<ZoneTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tb" runat="server" />
</ZoneTemplate>
</asp:WebPartZone>
aa
<asp:WebPartZone ID="RIGHT" runat="server">
</asp:WebPartZone>
aa
<asp:EditorZone ID="EditorZone1" runat="server">
</asp:EditorZone>
</div>
</form>
Here is the code behind:
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnInit(e);
WebPartManager mgr = WebPartManager.GetCurrentWebPartManager(this);
mgr.DisplayMode = WebPartManager.DesignDisplayMode;
}
What am I missing?
I have a Drop Down List which I need to bind to the database. Here is the situation. I am not using a SQLDataSource. It is built on the n-tier application. The datasource of the dropdown is referring to a method in the C#class. That method has a generic array list which populates information into the arraylist. The Arraylist is the parameter that is returned to the DropDown List.
I have also set the Text property of the Drop down list
Text='<%DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Employee_ID")%>'>
However, it is not populating the DropDown list, what should I do?
I retrieved values from database to drop down ,how can i make them as sortable.
View 5 RepliesI have a drop down which is binded through datasource from database ....
Eg:
K001 , K002 , K003 ....
The Above number will be inserted from another webpage to the database.
After some 20 days the value K001 should be disapper from the dropdown .....
And after some 20 days K002 should disappear from the dropdown .... and so on .
I want to make a button that changes the value in a dropdown list (dropdown populated from SQLdatasource)This sounds strange i know but i have 4 dropdowns each hidden by panels, unless the preceeding dropdown's value is changed from it's initial value. So i make a selection from my first dropdown list & a postback occurrs triggering the next panel (and as such
the dropdown list) to become visible, this occurs again until eventually my users will see 4 drop down boxes...(all required field vals etc)
My AjaxToolkit modal popup either hides my drop downs or the drop downs come over the modal screen. Is there any solution for this problem.Even a pure javascript modal popup will do for me but hiding of drop downs and drop downs coming above modal popups isn't the accepted behaviour in my project.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to write a web page where i have to select an item form a drop down list.
I am using linq to sql to get the data from the database.the strange thing is that i can register the data to the drop down list but when i select one of them the drop down list lets me to the first item. I set post back = true because i want to update the page every time an item get selected. I wrote a really simple code to check what was going wrong but still...no success. Below i am bringing the code i wrote.

I have a text box into which the user types a string of characters. When they have completed this search string they click on a button which then displays the number of matches found and populates a DropDownList control with them. The user has to then drop down the control to see the matches, but it would be much slicker to drop down the control automatically for them, especially as they sometimes don't notice there is more than one match and, therefore, select the wrong one.
I have combined my SQL result to display in drop down list in such manner:
" SAV 123-423-231 "
" CUR 234-234-212"
User selects which account to view. So if the user selects SAV 123-423-231, I have to pass in the bank account number. How do I do that?
By split? I tried doing this:
ddlAcc.text.split(" ")
Iam working on a web based form where I have a DDL to which I have attached a field validator which is not working. It should function in such a way that whenever the DDL is left to blank, it gives user an error. I have introduced that BLANK in the DDL using ListItem as I found that as the easisest way out.
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList4" runat="server"
DataSourceID="AccessDataSource4" DataTextField="myState"
DataValueField="myState" AppendDataBoundItems="true">
<asp:ListItem Selected = "True" Text = "" Value = ""></asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqState" runat="server"
ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator" Text="Required Field"
InitialValue="None" ControlToValidate="DropDownList4" Display="Dynamic">
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
I came across this example [URL] I want to create a form that will be validated when Submitted. In the above example you can keep on dragging colored boxed on the Drop It Here area. When a form is submitted, I want to validate Drop It Here area to see if it is empty or user drop a colored box here. Is this possible to do and if so, how to do it. I tried regular validation coltrols and they didn't seem to work.
View 1 RepliesHow can I make the first item in a drop down list non selectable. I want this first list-item to show up when the page is opened and want to populate the rest of the DDL from a backend DB. I don't want this default first item in the list to be selected (just want to show it as a default value)
I want it to look something like this.
Choose a State: (Appearing on the top of DDL, but cant be selected)

View 1 Repliesi have two tables which are related (school and departments). school_table (school_id, school_name) and department (dept_id, dept_name, school_id). page 1 creates the school - i take school name via textbox and school_id is auto generated in database. so informatics = 1, science = 2, etc page2 creates department - i take department name via textbox, dept_id is auto generated, and now i need a way to take school_id from this page to create the relationships (so we know which department belongs to which school). however, i don't really want the user to enter school Id that gets auto generated in the schools_table, instead i want to create a drop down list and populate it with the school_name values taken from page one. but these drop down values should represent an int value behind the scene since it needs to go to school_id (department_table) but how can i convert the drop down values from string to int so that if i enter informatics from drop down the value will be 1 in the school_id column?
View 2 RepliesThe three Dropdowns filter based on what is selected, kind of like a cascading drop down but I want it to cascade down and up.

I am trying to use a cascading drop-down for data entry. However, I'm having problems because I need to set the value of the drop-downs when I load the screen. I use a stored procedure to retrieve the values from my database, and then set the drop downs in my code-behind. Then the web service kicks in and wipes them out. :( How can I set these values and utilize the cascading drop down control?
