Web Forms :: How To Reference A HTML Element By ID
Mar 24, 2010
my .aspx page a have this HTML element:
<table id="table7" runat="server"></table>
I want to use C# to put some rows inside ...
Of course, I chould do this:
table7.Rows.Add( ... );
But the problem is, I create the ID dynamically and I have multiple tables with IDs like "table1","table2", and so on....
string idFromDB = ... // retrieve the number from the database
string fullId = "table" + idFromDB;
HtmlTable tbl = .... get the element based on fullId .... ??????
tbl.Rows.Add( ... );
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="test.ascx.cs" Inherits="UserControls_test" %> <p id="XXX">aaa</p>
and here is the contents of my test.ascx.cs file:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; public partial class UserControls_test : System.Web.UI.UserControl { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.XXX.InnerHtml = "BBB"; } }
I get an error when I refer to the id, "XXX" (underlined above) in code behind which reads: 'UserControls_test' does not contain a definition for 'XXX' and no extension method 'XXX' accepting a first argument of type 'UserControls_test' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I have tried XXX.InnerHtml and I have tried this.XXX.InnerHtml and get same problem.
How do I successfully refer to ID'ed HTML elements in code behind?
I'm looking at an asp.net application, i notice that there are assemblies defined into two places. In web.config there is configuration/system.web/compilation/assemblies/add elements. In the project file there are references setup under the Project/ItemGroup/Reference elements.
I was wondering, what is the difference between assemblies/references added in either location?
I have a <div> element in a web page. I've assigned it an "ID" and made it a server-side control by using "runat=server". How do I define that <div> in the code-behind. I'm been looking at the "System.Web.UI.HtmlControls" namespace and not sure what to use. The reason I need to do this is because within this <div> is a "Submit" button which will cause a postback. When I click the submit button the first thing it does is it executes a procedure to perform edit checks on the various textbox controls. If a control is empty, a message pops up. When the user clicks "Ok" for the message, the <div> disappears because when the form loads, the <div> style.display property is set to "none" by default. Basically, all I want is for the <div> not to disappear when the edit checks are performed and a messagebox pops up.
I am using ckeditor as my Rich Text Editor (RTE). This is an html element control and not an ASP control. I would like to use the RequiredFieldValidator (RFV) control to make this field required.
I cannot find any documentation stating that the RFV can be used like this. Can anybody tell me if this is possible?
Here's an example - notice that there is an html textarea element - how do I use RFV on this?
Now that I put this html inside a Tab containe (subpanel) the Page.Request.Form["Name"].ToString() fail, actually while I was debugging I could not find this element inside Page.Request.Form.
maybe there is another way of accessing the Html element from my c# code?
I must to read table in html file. I'm try to read html table to data set and xml but it dosen't work. Anyone have any solution to read table or entity control in html file.
So I thought that you could use id="name" and access this just like an ASP control such as <ASP:Checkbox
or <ASP:Label etc. My code continues to caugh and state object not set to an instance of an object when I uncheck my checkbox
Line 741: ElseIf Not Me.CheckBox1.Checked Then Line 742: Dim row As GridViewRow = gvLink.SelectedRow Line 743: Dim recip As HtmlAnchor = TryCast(row.FindControl("recip"), HtmlAnchor) Line 744: Response.Write(recip) Line 745:
Using the HTMLHelper's strongly typed methods on an instance of UserAccount my HTML elements are given IDs like:
id="PhoneNumber" id="Credentials.Username"
This is awesome, it's great really. What I want is to be able to generate the same ID for a property in my controllers. My purpose is to link some additional error messages to the ID's. I can always just guess what it will be and enter it into the code, but I prefer to have a strongly typed way to do this. Does on exist?
and it's not recognising that I added the span to the page. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I have been working in MVC lately, so I haven't had to worry about the relationship between the page & code-behind in a while, but I can't remember any tricks that I had to perform to reference a HTML element in my code.
An error occurred during the processing of /_layouts/MyPage/Info.aspx. Literal expressions like '<%$Resources:wss,okbutton_accesskey%>' are not allowed. Use <asp:Literal runat="server" Text="<%$Resources:wss,okbutton_accesskey%>" /> instead
That doesn't work in this situation as that would mean nesting the Literal between the quotes of the accesskey attribute, which causes a "The tag contains duplicate 'ID' attributes" error.
Is there a way to use a string from a resource without having to change the input to an asp:Button? I guess there has to be a way using <%=, but I don't know how I would address the resource itself?
I'm trying to set a value for an HTML Element within my code-behind. I need to set a <div> elements "display" property to "inline". The way I have it coded is like this:
Code: divContact.Style("display") = "inline"
Is this the right syntax? I only ask because it doesn't seem to work but I don't get a run-time error when the statement is executes. ???
I've been hired to clean up a website that was written by another company. One of the main issues they have is that the navigation menu doesn't always match the content. On closer look, they didn't use a navigation control or an accordion, but made their own user control out of HTML UL's and LI's (see below). Each section is supposed to expand when you click on it to offer sub menus. Any how, I am trying to find a way when the content pages load to force the menu to focus on the correct UL. Any thoughts on how to do this? By the way they wrote this stuff in 2.0, which I guess maybe why they didn't use the Accordion from the AJAX Toolkit.
HTML Code: <div class="left-menu"> <div class="arrowlistmenu"> <h3 id="H3mymessage" class="menuheader expandable" onclick="RedirectBrowser(1)"> My Messages </h3>
[Code] ....
Redirect Browser is defined on the master page:
HTML Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function RedirectBrowser(ID) { if (ID == 1) window.location="MyMessageList.aspx?MessageFolderID=-1"; else if (ID == 2)
[Code] ....
Here is an example of how it is messed up. My Messages should be highlighted but My Profile is.
I have a View that has a select drop-down list and an edit button within a form. What I want to do is have the user select one of the options from the select element, click on the edit button, and get the value of the selected option in the Controller method.
I created my form with <% Html.BeginForm(): %>
and the Controller "Edit" method should be called.
I looked through several online examples, but each one focused on how to set values and the default selected value of the select element, rather than retrieving it from the code in the Controller method. I tried grabbing it from the Request.Form collection like:
string val = Request.Form["myDropDownList"].ToString(); and also: string val = Request.Form["myDropDownList"];
Obviously I didn't do this correctly, because I get a null reference exception. Does anyone have the solution to this issue?
I want to replace a form element with a div and keep the inner html of the form inside the inserted div element. i tried jquery it gives me unkown html element as selection result,
One site would take data from the site var. C# PostBack method.But when the page's source code as submitted does not renewed. Object Can not Be Coming Referanced error. So I do post but the page refresh itself. This post has been displayed next to new data coming from the user how can I get?
In general, If I have a choice when developing a web site to use html elements or asp.net controls which one is better to use if my website is interactive with server side operations such as accessing database. Is it more secure to use asp.net controls or does not matter.
On other words, is it more secure to use asp.net controls instead of html element to deliver data or receive data from/to server side or no differences?
i want to show tooltip for individual li element for that i am using title attributes but it is working only in IE not n firefox and chrome what attribute should i use for these two browser
