Web Forms :: Dynamically Upload And Use Usercontrol At Runtime?
Oct 9, 2010
I was wondering if it is possible to upload the .ascx and .ascx.vb of a custom usercontrol into my project directory at runtime via an upload control and then after that use through a database query point my page to load that newly uploaded control via (LoadControl(<newlyUploadedControl>)?
I want to add and use the user control at runtime in the master page.
I have used LoadControl Method to add usercontrol but in that case i was unable in getting the tagprefix and tagname value of the user control so that i can use it on master page file also.
I've a ASP.Net page (Default.aspx) which will load UserControl (ucontrol.ascx) dynamically into an UpdatePanel. By using UpdatePanel, we believe we're able to prevent the entire page to be posted-back.
My problem is, within the UserControl, we have some form controls, such as inputs and buttons; after the UserControl is loaded, clicking on any button inside the UserControl will cause the UpdatePanel to be blanked. During the investigation, I found that, breakpoints within the Button1_Click() in the code-behind for the UserControl is never reached. Please reference to the code below, this references to [REFERENCE]1.
Now my requirement is Multiple file upload code should be in the usercontrol but when click in the btnSubmit from aspx then it has to upload in folder and has to get save in DB Table.
At runtime I would like to be able to change the ascx to another path, it would still be inheriting from the same usercontrol codebehind, it would just be a different template.
If I press F5 (IE) after user control was rendered, I get IE's warning window that IE needs to resend the information.... How can I prevent it and why does it happen?
UPDATE:Maybe there is another approach? I want to load specific control (with it's markup) when user selects it from the dropdownlist. if a postback is made the control shouldn't disappear(only if another control was selected from the dropdownlist) Everything is inside update panel!
We're having an issue with a .NET 3.5 WebForms site where occasionally our error logs start filling up with the following error message:
"Multiple controls with the same ID 'ctl09' were found. FindControl requires that controls have unique IDs."
I know very little about the exception as I have never seen it while debugging locally and have never caught it in the error logs soon enough to run a remote debugging session. I do know that an application pool recycle fixes the issue.
This only affects a single [high traffic] page in the site. The strange thing is that the site uses the pre-4.0 ID generation logic. So, when the page is working, there isn't an html element in the entire view source that isn't some autogenerated control ID prefix followed by a the 'actual' IDs (i.e. ctl09_someID_someOtherID).
What would case a control to randomly stop being built correctly? Other than the Global.asax, how can I trap this error and force the control to ... recompile? App pool to recycle?
I would like to load UserControl dynamically from DLL in the bin directory.
The dll contains several usercontrols which dynamically create webcontrols within them.
I do not have Virtual Path of the UserControls to use in LoadControl(String virtualpath) and LoadControl(Type, object[]) does not work(why the heck is it there in the first place anyways).
provide me some sample code which takes either the path of dll or assembly name "ServerControls" to load usercontrol "UserControl1" dynamically into placeholder "PlaceHolder1"
I have a web user control with dynamic LinkButton think an event in which you assign events to them (LinkButton.Click + = new EventHandler (Method)).The problem is that these events do not run, I did test creating and if you run statically.Why is it??I need to be created dynamically at runtime.For Examples :
for (int i = 0; i <= 5; i++) { Button boton = new Button();
I am trying to add UserControl dynamically to the page. UserControl is added only once (when the page loads) but on postback it doesn't add again (Only one control is alwasys there).I want to add user control Whenever user clicks "btnAddUCWingControl" so when the page loads for first time, there will be only one control, on postback there must be TWO controls and so on
Im trying to add a new "Question UserControl" dynamically to my page each time the user presses "Add question". This works fine and the last control gets deleted when the "Delete question" is pressed. My problem is that in each of the "Question UserControls" i have a placeholder where i would like to add a new Textbox when the user presses "Add answer" and then delete it once the "Delete answer is pressed". The way it works now when i press add answer, an Answer Textbox gets added to the placeholders in all the added Usercontrols. But i only want to add it to the one UserControl where the user pressed "Add answer".
I have UserControl that has asp control(<asp:Button runat="server" ID="btn" />) and I want to render it. I tried 1
[Code]....
It doesn't works because it says that each control that has runat="server" must be in Form.I also tried 2:Because loader.Form is null, I create HtmlForm and added the ctrl to it and then added HtmlForm to loader's Control, BUT it says that it has 2 HtmlForm. So, instead I "injected" HtmlForm to loader like this [Code]....
Now no error is occurred, BUT StringWriter is empty. don't tell me to add Page to solution and override OnRender. I want to do it as I mentioned above.
When it comes to the usercontrol specially when they are loaded dynamically on the basis of certain conditions then it becomes a very confusing work. I have read in many forums that the dynamic controls have to be loaded in OnpreInit or OnInit. Some of those links are[URL] But this is useful only when if the we know that we have to load UserControl1, UserControl2 without considering any conditions. But what if I have a Tab control and for each Tab Click I have to load the UserControl dynamically. In that situation how can we add the control in either OnPreInit or OnInit. If I am not mistaken then in such case, then we can add usercontrol in certain events. If we are using a TabControl then we load in Tab_Click , if we are using Menu Control then we use Menu_Click and depending upon the particular tab or Menu we load associated usercontrols. Hence in these conditions, how can we go with the logic mentioned by above links. I have this confusion for very long time . I am posting little portion of my project here. I am using RadTabControl but it doesnt matter if it is Microsoft TabControl. In the aspx, I have a code to define RadTabControl.
In the code behind, I am loading usercontrol on the basis of the particular TabClick. tabMeberDetails_Click fires whenever I click on the tabs.ViewState["ControlName"] stores UserControlName on the basis of certain condition and finally i load the usercontrol.
proteced void tabMemberDetails_Click(object sender, RadTabStripEventArgs e) { Conditions...... { ViewState["ControlName"]=........ } viewDef=ViewState["ControlName"] UserControl control = (UserControl)LoadControl("~/Controls/" + viewDef + ".ascx"); after this I add control to the RadTabStrip.................. and call bind method......... }
As you can see from above, I am loading my usercontrol in tabMemberDetails_Click event. I see no other choice to do it in OnPreInit. Can anyone answer if this is the right way to do or there is another way that complies with the logic in the links given above.
I have a requirement whereby one or more image buttons need to be created in a user control at runtime. The number of buttons is determined from a database where a user can add one or more rows that contain an image for each button, so if a user adds 3 images to a table, 3 image buttons are created. Ive used this code but I get an error at runtime
The control collection cannot be modified during DataBind, Init, Load, PreRender or Unload phases.
[Code]....
this is the usercontrol aspx
[Code]....
I basically want one or more buttons to render within the div in the usercontrol. Ive only got the code written for one button at the moment while I test the rendering, eventually they will be rendered in a loop of records taken from a database. Whats the best way to do this ?
I've got a dynamically populated drop down list and was wondering if web crawlers are able to see dynamically rendered data? Here is my static html below, and the end result to the end user is a drop down list that's populated from my SQL query within my datasource below.
I am trying to dynamically load query form as a user control and build a sql statement based on user selection. I have a dropdownbox for Tablename, FieldName, ConditionalOperators and Value Field. Once the user makes a choice and causes a postback I loose my QueryForm (UserControl) and the selection Changed event never gets fired. I tried reloading the QueryForm on Page Init, still no luck.
