my web application i use FindControl to retrieve a Control By Name (it returns an System.Web.UI object). The control can be of various type and I don't want to treat them differently: I'd like to set the Text property to a defined string. I hope there's a class that I may use to cast the control and set the Text property.
View 8 RepliesI have build a composite control which renders a TextControl or a RADEditor control, dependable of a property a set. Both rendered controls have a Text-property. The problem is that when I change the Textvalue on my webpage (when it is running) it won't set the new Text-value but the old Textvalue instead.
Below the code of my composite-control.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

I don't seem to be able to set the Text property within this custom control. Even though I set the Text property in code-behind, when I refresh the web form, only the default message is shown.

I am assigning a value to .Text of a textbox retrieved from a database in Page_Load() but no characters are shown in the textbox after doing this. The value is indeed there when I try to read from it after the assignment. I would like to present some characters to the user even though they are the "dotted" password characters so they know a password has been entered here. Is it possible to do this?

I need to create one custom text box control which should be bind with data base.
I am referring following link...
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.databoundcontrol.aspx
I used DataBoundControl to create my control but i am not able to do it properly.
public class SimpleTextBoxControl : DataBoundControl
{
private TextBox nameTextBox;
public string DataTextField
{
get
{
object o = ViewState["DataTextField"];
return ((o == null) ? string.Empty : (string)o);
}
set
{
ViewState["DataTextField"] = value;
}
}
[
Bindable(true),
Category("Data"),
DefaultValue(""),
Description("The text to display on the link."),
Localizable(true),
PersistenceMode(PersistenceMode.InnerDefaultProperty)
]
public virtual string DataTexValue
{
get
{
string s = (string)ViewState["Text"];
return (s == null) ? String.Empty : s;
}
set
{
ViewState["Text"] = value;
}
}
protected override void PerformDataBinding(IEnumerable retrievedData)
{
if (retrievedData == null)
return;
base.PerformDataBinding(retrievedData);
Controls.Clear();
nameTextBox = new TextBox { ID = "nameTextBox" };
foreach (object dataItem in retrievedData)
{
if (DataTextField.Length > 0)
{
nameTextBox.Text = DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(dataItem, DataTextField, null);
}
DataTexValue = nameTextBox.Text;
}
this.Controls.Add(nameTextBox);
}
}

View 1 RepliesI have a user control registered on content page in content page i hve a label control
How i set content pages label control text property from usercontrol in u.control page load.
My understanding is that the ErroMessage is supposed to be displayed in a ValidationSummary control. My page does not have a ValidationSummary and I set the RequiredValidator's Text property to empty. I expected that nothing would be displayed when the validated control is invalid, but the ErrorMessage shows up at the place where Text is supposed to be. I am wondering if this is normal.
BTW, ValidatorCalloutExtender is used. Is this a cause?
Now I have to set the Display property to None to avoid any displaying anything. This is not a big deal, but I am curious.
I have tried a number of ways to format the text of a label with codebhind, I don't get errors, but it just ignores the code.
For example, if I put label.text = "Some text " & chr(13) & "some more text"
it will just ignore the chr(13). I have tride vbcrlf, /n, etc.
I would rather not have to change the control to a text box but will if I have to.
I'm modifying an existing application. I need to be able to bind the Text property of an asp:DropDownList control to one of two fields when the page is rendered. The existing code is like this:

I've tried to use conditional logic on the .aspx page when setting the Text property, but everything I've tried results in an error. I've also tried using code-behind to set the Tetxt property in the Page_Load event. This doesn't generate an error, but it doesn't set the property either.
I have been looking through the event viewer on our server and can see quite a few people with this error but I can't replicate this myself but it is causing issues for people viewing our website is there anyway I can "initialize" Command Text property?

So I have this query
datelistquery = "SELECT DISTINCT property_id, ' - Sleeps ' + cast(number_slept as varchar) as combsleeps, number_slept FROM openquery ("+Application("hpbDsrc")+",'SELECT property_id, number_slept FROM web_details WHERE part_full_flag = ''F'' AND location = ''"&Session("TenChosenLocCode")&"'' AND property_id = ''"&Session("passedPropId")&"'' AND pets_yn like ''"&Session("TenPets")&"'' AND number_slept >= ''"&Session("TenAdults")&"'' AND year_week = ''"&Session("TenHolStDateHP1")&"'' AND on_hold = ''NO'' AND booked = ''NO'' ') ORDER BY number_slept, property_id"
So should I put at the start sqlCommand.CommandText(datelistquery) = "Select Distinct...."
I'm tyring to write a simple DetailsView only used for inserting new records that will pre-fill a textbox with a query string value. Here's the DetailsView:
[code]....
All I want to do is set VenueID_FK.Text to = the "VenueID" querry string. I also want the user to be able to see the VenueID number as they are filling out GridView1.
I know this is probably a simple thing, but I am very new to asp.net. I thought I could handle this in the page load event, but when I try something like this
TextBox VenueID_FK = (TextBox)DetailsView1.FindControl("VenueID_FK");
And then follow by setting the Text property programitically. I've accomplished something similar to this on a different page using a FormView, but only for ReadOnly mode and it was handled in the databound event on that page.
I get the error "The name 'DetailsView1' doesn't exist in the current context." when trying to do the above mentioned. When trying the same line in the databound event here, I get the same error.
I'm trying to access the Data text Field value of a HyperLinkField inside of a GridView Control during the databind event. Normally, I could access any cell's value with some syntax along the lines the following in the RowDataBind function:
myVarText = e.Row.Cells(2).Text
But this doesn't work when trying to access the value of the hyperlinkfield. All that's returned is an empty string.
Is it possible to get a Label's text property in javascript using the clientID? I know with a text box you can do:
var test = document.getElementById("<%=txtUnread.ClientID%>").value;
But Label's get converted to span's which don't have a value.
I have a txt file, in which read only property is true. When I try to write some text in that file through the vb coding, it's through the error. I have shown the code below.
Dim fs As FileStream = File.OpenWrite(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("Include/CacheKeyFile.txt"))
Dim sw As New StreamWriter(fs)
sw.Write("Menu setup updated by " & value & " on " & DateTime.Now.ToString())
sw.Close()
fs.Close()
I found the cause of the error. If we set the Write access property to false, we can open the file and write it without showing the error messages.
I need to remove the Read only property for a file through the vb. Net code. Is it possible? Can we set the read only for txt file before open and write operation?
I have a situation where I'm iterating through all the controls on a form, specifically looking out for any of these three types of controls: Labels, TextBoxes, CheckBoxes
I can, of course, get the type of the control and then use a Switch-Case construct to cast labels as Labels, textboxes as TextBoxes, and checkboxes as CheckBoxes.
But I'm wondering if there's a way to do something with one or two lines of code to gain access to the Text property of each of these controls?

I have a link button in my gridview. It is populating correctly; however, being I am populating the values in the gridview using "Eval()" method I don't know how to get the value of the selected Link Button (which is only selected by a user actually clicking
the Link Button).
The user can click on the text directly (instead of showing the "Select" auto created). I want to be able to capture the item they have clicked on's Text property.
Example:Column 1
Value1
Value2
Value3
When the click on "Value2" I want the text property to be stored in a string variable (In this case the text would be "Value2"). In the past I have captured this through GridView.SelectedValue; however, I am not using autopopulate selected button so I need to do this manually and I am unsure as to how I will do this.
Here is my code for HTML and I have not created any code for C# (I want to capture the item using C# in my Grd_Tables_SelectedIndexChanged Event)
