I am going to deploy my Application on server but instead of specifying connection string (servername .server userid , password) in web.config manually is their any way of entering the server details in the web.confi file dynamically from client side when i first run the application.
in the starting page the user must specify the server details and database name from which he want the data to be loaded .And once i enter the server details it should bepermanently stored in the web.config file instead of dataabse.
We have a requirement of creating an input page which might be different for different users, changing will be in terms of number and type of fields. How should I architect this page. Should i create page using "XML and XSLT" or "XML and database fields" or is there any more flexible way to create this type of page. I couldn't visualise the flow in which this should be implemented.
I have an xml feed that contains a list of form fields that I need to create and then submit to the server once a user has filled it out. Below is a snippet of the xml I am working with. how I should go about creating these controls and retrieving their values on postback?
currently i have db name , server name & coonection credentials for sql daTAbase hardcoded in webconfig but i need to create a dynamic connection string in which db name will change currenly i have a main .aspx with a button & on its click event i get the connection string frm webconfig and move on to next page

i am working on a project in which i have to create newsletters. We wish to give user functionality of editing the complete layout ( drag and drop if possible) I am able to achieve drag and drop with web parts but can't customise them much like adding richtext box and saving multiple copies of same page with different layouts. I then wish to enable user to send the html only part of page which contains dynamic layout.
I've created some dynamic buttons on page load but the buttons need to have an onserverclick event and pass a value. I used buttons because they can pass a value. My code below so far, just outputs onserverlick to the html page, which is obviously not what I want. Would it be possible to use some other method, I originally used hyperlinks until I needed to pass a value (I didn't want to use querystrings). [Code]....
I am creating a dynamic <asp:Table> based on a user's selection from a DropDownList. The number of columns and rows in the table depends on the user's choice from the DropDown.
The final two columns in each row needs to contain an Edit and Delete button. I am able to create these buttons programmatically. However, I am unable to get the click event to fire.
After researching this, it appears to be the case that my dynamic Web controls need to be created in the page Init method.
However, I am unable to do this as I do not know how many table rows, columns and buttons to create, until after the user has made a selection from a DropdownList.
I would be be very grateful for some tips on the correct way to create and enable the events for my dynamic buttons, in this scenario.
Here is a brief outline of how the program currently works (this is just a brief outline I quickly sketched, small details may be wrong!):
I need some high-level advice on how to deal with this issue. I want to have dynamically created buttons, each with a different CommandArgument, that call an OnCommand event when clicked. Given that these are dynamic buttons, I have to re-create them in Page_Load after the postback. However, when I re-create the buttons, the orginal command arguments are lost, and the arguments generated after the postback are only valid.As you'd expect, if I don't recreate the buttons, the event handler is never called because the buttons don't exist.My question is, how can I retrieve those original commandarguments, without the use of sessions.
I'm presenting a list of products within a ListView. Each product can have associated "Options" (Size, Colour etc), but may have none. For each product that gets added, I need to render a dropdownlist for each of its options. E.g. A "Colour" dropdown might have "Black", "White", "Red" etc. I need to generate these controls dynamically, as they are defined by the data itself.
So far, so good. The dropdowns are rendered, and everything "looks" good. The trouble is, I can't work out how to actually get it to work. .Net is complaining about "EnableEventValidation", and ViewState won't work as I've added the controls late in the page's life cycle. As these controls are dynamic, I don't know how to pick up the selected values, and persist them on a post back! When the user clicks on the "Add to basket" option for the product, I need to determine which options the user has selected, and add them to the basket.
Am I missing something here? Is there an easier way of achieving this? I kind-of feel like I'm in a "chicken and egg" situation here. I can't create the controls until the data is loaded (in the ItemDataBound event), but that too late for ViewState. Is there a generally accepted best approach for achieving this sort of thing in ASP/Net?
I have tried various techniques that some seemed to have outlined and so far none of them have worked. I have a situation where the Page_Load() needs to build a set of <input id=<dynamic name'>> that are build dynamically inside a <ul>. The form gets created fine but when I click the button and look at the results returned to the server I cannot seem to find the input values. Is there a defined way of accomplishing this?
I'm trying to make a form where the text boxes and titles for each box are created dynamically based on how many array values there are. I have tried a repeater but am a little unclear on how I can get the texbox to bind to one area of and the title to bind to another. This is what I have so far:
[Code]....
...and this is the code-behind with an associated array, arr1:
// Bind Array to Repeater rep1.DataSource = arr1; rep1.DataBind();
This works and adds values where container.dataitem is but how to I make it add one set of array values there and another set of array values where the *x* is?
I want to create dynamic datalist control with item template in a for loop.
Example: In my database, I have 20 Categories and 100 products. Each categories have some products. Now I want to show 20 categories all together in my page and it is not specific that categories will remain same. It can be increase or decrease. I am taking CategoryID with for loop and now I want to bind datalist according to the count of for loop.
Example: we have different articles in a database like cars, jewelery, boats. The data related to these articles is different in the tables. I have to show that data in a textboxes and let the user change those data and update. I can do the update and reading the data from database. But the problems is for each item the no.of columns and rows will differ.
My task is I need to get the data according to the use selection in the table with textboxes. I dont know which container (gridview, formview or etc) will suites for my requirement. send me any sample code or any tutorial related to this.
Note: showing the data in a table should be a constraint. Because I should show data row wise (each row contains 3 textboxes and 3 labels (DB table column names))
Im developing ecommerce website and i want to add category menu to my website. This category menu should have 2 levels for sub categories as well. I tried navigation controls in ASP.net. But still i cant understand how to create the navigation menu in order to integrate with back office. I understand that i can do this with XML file, But if i want to add new products categories or remove categories, XML file should update automatically according to that. I don't understand how to do that. In brief all i want is create category menu with subcategories and i want to control this from my back office.
i have a gridview which is populated from a stores proc using pivot tables. The column are created dynamically apart from a total column which is created as a template field. the gridview looks like below:
CPW EE Foh H3G IND O2 ORG P4U T-M TSC VIR VOD Total
Stores Visited
70 0 0 12 0 16 18 7 11 1 2 8 145
i need to add a hyperlink to each gridview cell and when that cell is clicked pass the header text through the querystring to another page. I can access the cells value ok and pass that through but i cannot seem to access the cells column header text. when i response.write out a count of the gridview.columns it brings back 2 which is the template fields but not the dynamic fields i have tried this on the rowdatbound, rowcreated, page_load and page_unload. the count should be 12 its like it cannot find the dynamic columns at all. ?
here is my code for populating the gridview
[Code]....
and here is my gridview:
[Code]....
i am also moving the total column in this code
[Code]....
and calculating my total in this code and adding my link to the total colum (which works fine)
[Code]....
now i just need to somehow add a link to the other cells and somehow get the value of the header text for that cell clicked.
I'd like to mimic the behavior of the "profile provider" that is available in .Net. The profile provider acquires profile properties from the web.config and those properties are immediately available as an enum for use in the code behind.I'm unsure how to do this, and wondered whether someone may be able to help.Essentially I'd like to allow developers to enter Role information into the web.config, and then have this role information available for use within an enum in the codebehind.
I need to get access to the page index of the gridview so I can correctly get some data from a coresponding array to set the cell's contol properties correctly. Below is what I've got so far. The ExcelObject is a class that houses both the data read in from an sutomer submitted excel file and a matching 2 dimensional array of characteristics that I use in this case to set the CssClass property. My problem is that when I enable paging for the gridview I don't get the proper datasource row index when the data is read by the databinder.eval; what I'm getting is the current row of the gridview being generated.
1. On OnCreatedUser event, I create a folder for each members, so that they can store their files inside those. The thing is I use User.Provider key as a folder name. Is this a good way to store? Is this OK from security view point. Otherwise I am planning to use the User.Username. Here are the codes inside the OnCreatedUser event.
[Code]....
2. Inside these user folders I want to put web.config at run time [at the time of registration]. So that a member cannot access files of other members at any cost. Do you have any idea on creating web.config file at runtime inside these folders? Else if you can provide me any other options, I am eager to listen that. I don't want to call database frequently. So if there is any easy solution.
Does anyone out there use ComponentOne's C1Menu and create a menu with subitems at runtime? I have went through their forums and help and anything at runtime is done with C1WebMenu which was replaced with this version.I need to create the whole menu with subitems. Can you show code for this if you have?
