I know that if I re-add the control during Page_Load, the posted values will be repopulated when the page is rendered; however, this is not the case when re-adding the control during the Click event and I need to add the control during an event handler.
I 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.
When the user selects an "account" we dynamically create a linkbutton with the selected dates. However, the linkbutton onclick handler doesn't fire when the button is clicked.
Dim linkBtn As New LinkButton
linkBtn.Text = "blah"
AddHandler linkBtn.Click, AddressOf linkButtonHandler
linkBtn.ID = panelDatesRencontre.Controls.OfType(Of LinkButton).Count
panelDatesRencontre.Controls.Add(linkBtn)
ScriptManager1.RegisterAsyncPostBackControl(linkBtn)
Dim Trigger1 As New AsyncPostBackTrigger
Trigger1.ControlID = linkBtn.ID
Trigger1.EventName = "Click"
UpdatePanel2.Triggers.Add(Trigger1)
Answer: i make that in page_load, it seems to work
I dymamically add checkBoxList to the page. How can I get checked items from it without adding it again?
View 7 RepliesCan a placeholder control be created dynamically such that you can add controls to it later on?
PlaceHolder ph_grid = new PlaceHolder();
While I am using a "Telerik" control here it shouldn't be any different I guess;
[code]....
What happens is that the control is created and rendered;
When I change value in the Combo box a Post-Back happens.
HOWEVER, the event RadComboBoxSelectedIndexChanged does not fire. Also when I am back at the page the new value is not saved; Obviously, i recreate the control every time. If I don't I get a ViewState error. Seems to me that there some ViewState management problem, but I cannot identify it...
How can I get the placement of dynamically added control in any page event.
View 6 RepliesI am trying to persist data in a dynamically populated ListBox in a user control. Here are the details
I have a user control which contains a a listBox and button. On Page_Load of user control I am populating the ListBox control with some values. On Click of button, I am trying to fetch the values which I have selected in ListBox. Though this seems very simple and straight forward I am unable to fetch values.
My Page_Load Function
void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
If(!IspostBack)
{
listBox.items.Add("Item1");
listBox.items.Add("item2");
listBox.items.Add("item3");
}
}
My Click Function
Protected Void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string strValue = listBox.SelectedValue
}
I have placed brake point at Page_Load and on click function, I am seeing that the moment the breakpoint hits Page_Load function (before If (!Ispostback)) , listBox.SelectedIndex is becoming -1.
One more thing here is, I am placing this user control in an SharePoint application page to be specific checkin.aspx page . ( I know this should not be done, but that is the requirement for me)
I can't get control which I added in DataGrid. I am adding it in OnRowDataBound event like:
protected void RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowState == DataControlRowState.Edit || e.Row.RowState == (DataControlRowState.Alternate | DataControlRowState.Edit))
//int cindex = 0;
//for (cindex = 0; cindex < e.Row.Controls.Count; cindex++)
foreach (Control ctl in e.Row.Controls)
{
DataControlFieldCell dcctl = (DataControlFieldCell)ctl;
TableCell tcell = (TableCell)dcctl;
Label lblComment = new Label();
TextBox txtComment = new TextBox();
lblComment.Text = "<br>Comment: ";
dcctl.Controls.Add(lblComment);
dcctl.Controls.Add(txtComment);
//tcell.Controls.Add(lblComment);
//tcell.Controls.Add(txtComment);
//e.Row.Cells[cindex].Controls.Add(lblComment);
//e.Row.Cells[cindex].Controls.Add(txtComment);
What is happening here: there is already exist one TextBox in TableCell by default and I want to add another one TextBox and Label. After the bounding I can see 2 textboxes, I can input data into the both, but when I click Update button, then raises OnRowUpdating event where I can't get my TextBox!
protected void RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
grdView.EditIndex = -1;
int counter = 0;
for (counter = 0; counter < grdView.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells.Count; counter++)
{
foreach (Control ctl in grdView.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[counter].Controls)
{
And here I will be getting only default one TextBox (with its value). But my TextBox is disappeared! :(
P.S. I can't use predifined columns, like asp:TemplateField in aspx file, because my table has different amount of rows every time. It is dynamic
I am having datagridview control with dynamically added BoundField columns.I want to have tetxboxes in each cell of the gridview so taht user will enter data in gridview textboxes and at last on button click it will be saved in database.

such as (foreach control c in table.controls) or (foreach control c in tablecell.controls)but its not working.
How can I add the dynamically added control to validation?

the client-side validations kicks-in. Is there a way to explicitly include the deferredly-created inputs to validations?
I've got a custom ASP.Net web user control I've built; done this enough times before but this one is misbehaving and I can't spot why.
Where the calling page includes the user control directly in its markup, all is well and the control behaves as expected.
However if the page adds this particular control dynamically (to a placeholder in the master page, which is what's calling this whole thing) the elements within it stay firmly NULL - nothing from the user control gets written to the client at all, including static content within the user control.
I'm creating an ASP.NET control dynamically based on a value selected in a dropdown; for instance the field can be a textbox or a checkbox (for now), and then it gets added to a placeholder control. However, I'm unsure how to retrieve the value - using the placeholder's FindControl method returns null although I'm specifying the ID when I create the control.
Here's my code:

I am writing a survey generating system in asp.net. i asked an ealier question about the best way to create controls that can be passed about as variables. This was problematic with user controls so i was advised to use custom controls and a quick way to do this was to inherit from the panel control and just add a bunch of standard controls the the controls collection by overriding the CreateChildControls method. This way i could create my "survey" controls,which are basically Questions in the survey. THe question controls are then dynamically added to the page. This all works well but know i have come to the point that i want to try and retrieve the values from these controls and i seem to be lost in a nether world of of viewstates and page lifecycles. I can ensure that the dynamically added text boxes have a known ID, however even if i add the parent control in the page init handler the CreateChildControls method does not run until after until after the viewstate is loaded. I cannot work out how to retreive the values from these text boxes.
View 2 RepliesI have a user control say SearchVendor.ascx which contains 4 buttons a gridview and another user control. I need to load the control dynamically actually as a modal pop up
I get this code
var uc = Page.LoadControl("~/blah/VendorProductSearch.ascx") as VPSearch;
uc.ShowVPSearch(true);
_tempPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(uc);
it works fine the control gets loaded properly but onclick of any button the second time the control disappears ?
I want the dynamically added control to remain until the user clicks on the cancel button
I have a GridView of thumbnail photos within an UpdatePanel, with clickable icons in each row which each load a User Control containing a small Google Map into the relevant row. The idea is that the user can geotag (by clicking on the map) any photo in the GridView.
In the map User Control, there is some Javascript initialising the map:
function initializeMap() {
if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById('Map'), {size: new
GSize(336, 200)});
// set the map controls, set the centre, etc.
}
}
Problem is: I don't know how to call the initializeMap() method. Because it's dynamically added to the page, any attempt to link it to the calling button by "onClientClick=initializeMap()" for example, gives a JS error, saying the method isn't defined.
I've tried
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "initializeMap", "<script type="text/javascript">alert('Here'); initializeMap();</script>");
but I don't think I'm on the right track with that one either.
I have an asp page "A" and I've created a user control "B"
When I do A.Controls.Add(B), I would like to make an element, say a TableRow which is defined inside control "B", invisible via code behind.
When looking through Controls of "A", I cannot seem to find that table row.
I have a control that handles commenting. In this control, I have set a delegate event handler for sending an email.
I then have various types of controls, e.g. blog, articles etc, each of which may or may not have the commenting control added (which is done dynamically with me not knowing the id's), i.e. the commenting control is added outside this control. Each of these controls handles it's emailing differently(hence the event).
What I'm trying to determine, is how to assign the event in the parent control. At the moment, I'm having to recursively search through all the controls on the page until I find the comment control, and set it that way. Example below explains:
COMMENTING CONTROL
public delegate void Commenting_OnSendEmail();
public partial class Commenting : UserControl
{
public Commenting_OnSendEmail OnComment_SendEmail();
private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if(OnComment_SendEmail != null)
{
OnComment_SendEmail();
}
}
}
PARENT CONTROL
public partial class Blog : UserControl
{
private void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Commenting comControl = (Commenting)this.FindControl<Commenting>(this);
if(comControl != null)
{
comCtrol.OnComment_SendEmail += new Commenting_OnSendMail(Blog_Comment_OnSendEmail);
}
}
}
EDIT:
The reason I ask is that if I search from this.Page as the initial control, I am worried about time taken to search down the control tree to find it. Each different type of page would be different in how many control it would have. On some testing, it returns back quite quickly the result.
I have a composite user control consisting of three standard table cells (a legend, an image with a tool tip, and a text field control). If I add these to a TableRow in my aspx page it works fine and produces legal HTML in my source. The below works fine ...
<tr><MyControl:dataField
ID="txtEmail"
DataType="Email"
runat="server"
/></tr>
However when I try to do the same programmatically (C#) the TableRow won't accept anything in its Controls collection that isn't a TableCell. I could make my control a nested table in its own right but I lose the alignment of my form items on the page with multiple controls, as each table aligns itself according to its contents. Is there anyway I can make the TableRow accept my control as collection of cells or do I need to do some casting or making my user control inherit some kind of TableCell attributes? I can also dynamically add my controls to a TableCell item which actually displays OK in IE but creates illegal HTML (<td><td></td><td> ... </td></td> - I assume this is illegal) in my resulting source. The code below DOES NOT work ...

I have a gridview that on it's RowDataBound event I dynamically add Image Controls to some columns.
The problem is that I lose these images on the next PostBack.
OBS: The GridView's EnableViewState propertie is already set to true
I know about the page lifecycle, but how can I persist these images if I have to add them on the RowDataBound event?
In addittion, if I add a static TemplateColumn with an Image Control and I set it's ImageUrl propertie inside the RowDataBound event it will obviously persist between postbacks. The problem is that I don't know how many columns with images I'll have, it's defined on the datasource.

Actually the controls are in a user control on an aspx page that also uses a master page (if that matters)
I defined a table in the skin file with TableHeaderRow, HeaderTableCell. I added some formatting to these entries. The table defined in the control is not being skinned by this definition. If I add a "CssClass" on the TableHeaderCell in the control, the formatting works fine. If I add the CssClass to the skin it doesn't work.
Skin file:
<asp:Table runat="server" SkinID="dataTable" BorderStyle="None" CellPadding="0" CellSpacing="0" CssClass="table">

View 3 RepliesI've been struggling with this for several hours now so I thought I'd give this forum a try. The problem is that I'm adding two kind of buttons (editBtn and delBtn) which show up fine but they won't fire their respective method when clicked. I also have a third button which works just fine.
