Web Forms :: How To Add Parameters To A User Control
May 22, 2010
I may be putting this wrong. I have an ASP.NET web page which has a GridView, a CheckBoxList and some buttons and textboxes on it. The CheckBoxList and the GridView get their data from an SQLDataSource.
I would like to turn this Web Page into a User Control (which I think I know how to do with the MSDN information). How would I set up this User Control to use the SQLDataSource from the Web Page it is placed upon?
In the below example i cant get the value of "4" to appear in the rendered page. The output from below compiles and executes just fine but all three of the values shown are "0".
Here's a short snippet: (hopefully I'm formatting this correctly)
Basically I want to call a user control from a master page. However, I need to pass an object (a List of objects to be more specific), to the user control. I'm generating the list of objects in the Page_Load of the master page. Here's the line in my master page that calls the user control.
This user control has a parameter called CalendarItems that accepts the list of items. However, if I try to set this inside of the Page_Load method, my control executes before the Page_Load and throws an exception saying CalendarItems is null. Is there any way around this?
EDIT: I have a drop down list on this page that determines what the list of CalendarItems is so when I populate the CalendarItems list I need to be able to read the selected value from the drop down list.
I haven't used these in awhile. I was just wondering is it possible to pass values or parameters to a user control from the aspx page. Say you register a control and then use it using something like
i have a usercontrol called navigationmenu whose data is static but varies with loged in1.empID 2.empType 3 Country my question is how can i cache the data of usercontrol based upon combination of these 3 parameters
I don't think I understand fully how ASP.NET does inheritance of controls.I have a user control, ucBase, which has an asp.net label in the ascx file. Code behind references the label and it works fine during run time if the control is not a parent for another user parent.
If I have another user control, ucChild, inheriting from ucBase, the label in ucBase's code is always null. ucChild has no controls in its ascx fileThe server controls (like the label) needs to be declared in the ascx file and not created programmatically.What needs to be done for ucBase to see its own controls when it's a parent user control?
I've got a web site that has a master page and that master page (mpMaster that has a user control ucControl1) which has a sub user control (ucControl2), this user control has a property which accepts a value. Now, I have a page that uses the master page and on this page I have another user control (ucPageControl), I need to find a way of setting the value in ucControl2 from ucPageControl. Is this possible at all?
I am trying to assign user control from another user control ..first time its binding control successfully but when we refresh the data its giving error
saying "Object reference is not set an instance".
how to refresh data from another user control ...
My senerio below :
1 Aspx page
2. User control
calling usercontrol databinding method from aspx page but once it get refreshed ,not allowed to bind it again..
All I would like to be able to do is include one user control within another! Is this possible? I have spent the last hour searching the internet and it seems that I can't find a single thing.
In classic ASP it would be something like: <!--#include file="EditProject.ascx"-->
I tried this but no luck!
Parser Error Message:
There can be only one 'control' directive.
Source Error:

I need from a ascx (control_A) load dynamically another user control (Control_B), for do that I use LoadControl passing parameters to the control_B's constructor, in this way:
I want to use a couple of instances of the same control on a page. The user control is intended to display a list of records in a repeater. The aim is that the second control will show a list excluding the IDs in the first control The control has a number of public properties, including IDsInThisList, and IDstoExclude. The query will exclude the IDs in the second property.
What I would like to do is get the record IDs from the first instance of the control (IDsInThisList), and pass them to the second contro as the IDsToExclude.
I have a test page where I am setting the properties of the controls in code. As you might guess, it's not working! The first control displays the top 3 items, as desired, but the second display the records 1-7, rather than records 4-10 because it is not receiving the IDstoExclude from the first control When I response write the IDstoExclude from the first control in my testpage, the string is empty. (if I do it from within the control, it shows the IDs)
How can I get the controls to fire in order and pass values to each other?

i would like to ask about how can i open user control page when i click a button on parent page, also, can i call parent's method from user control page and then refresh parent page?
I load the content of some User Controls into my page with the use of jQuery. So I have this function that extracts the content from my User Control, and it works like a charm.
public string GetObjectHtml(string pathToControl) { // Create instance of the page control Page page = new Page(); // Create instance of the user control UserControl userControl = (UserControl)page.LoadControl(pathToControl); //Disabled ViewState- If required userControl.EnableViewState = false; //Form control is mandatory on page control to process User Controls HtmlForm form = new HtmlForm(); //Add user control to the form form.Controls.Add(userControl); //Add form to the page page.Controls.Add(form); //Write the control Html to text writer StringWriter textWriter = new StringWriter(); //execute page on server HttpContext.Current.Server.Execute(page, textWriter, false); // Clean up code and return html string html = CleanHtml(textWriter.ToString()); return html; }
But I would really like to send in some parameters into my User Control when I create it. Is this possible, and how can i do that?
I can see that LoadControl() can take some parameters with object[] parameters but im really not sure on how to use it.
i have a web page and inside the page has a placeholder that contains 2 user controls and both visible set to false.
When i click on button1 on the page, it will set the visible of usercontrol1 to true. May i know how do i do it so that when i click on button2 that IS INSIDE usercontrol1, it will hide usercontrol1 from placeholder and set usercontrol2 visible =true?

this is the code but i get an error at line 'C' --- Null Reference Exception was unhandled
I have a web user control that represents a simple message box. It is used to display simple messages like "Item has been deleted", or "The item was saved successfully".
On the other hand, I have another web user control that represents the item in the form of an editable form (I made this a user control because this is used in two different pages). I want to embed an instance of the message box user control inside the editable form. I am writing this right after the @Control directive:
[Code]....
Instead of using @Register directives, I register the user controls in web.config and so far this has worked just fine.
With the above markup, the project compiles, but whenever I try to navigate to a page that contains this construct, I get an HttpParseException exception. Furthermore, Visual Studio states that the tack w7rc9:MessageBox doesn't represent a known control.
