//is there anything wrong with the preceding way? Why ever use LoadControl?
Control myLC = LoadControl("myControl2.ascx");
//Why ever do it the LoadControl way?
}
I have what is probably a basic question but I do not understand if/why there is a difference. I have a simple asp.net page with a staticly created DropDownList and Panel control. The user can select one of three options if the drop down (Employee, Company, Address) which should load the respective custom UserControl into the panel below. By default, I have the Employee control selected in the drop down and it should be displayed on the intial Page Load (!Page.IsPostBack).
If I do the following it performs the desired behavior on the intial load:
[Code]....
If I try the following, the User Control does not appear on the initial page load:
[Code]....
I noticed if I do it with a textbox instead of a UserControl, it works however:
[Code]....
I assume there is some sort of behavioral difference in the way the loading is done between a UserControl and WebControl.
I am new to ASP.NET And I am have THE hardest time understanding how to work with forms in ASP.NET. Here's what I am doing:
Dynamically add User Controls to a PlaceHolder based on some int value (which currently is passed in a HiddenField).Fire an event if the WebControls inside of the User Control change, then handle that event in the Main Page (i.e. save the input to DB)When the user clicks the "Next/Continue" button, the next controls for the next page are loaded. And I guess maybe I just can't seem to get how things work in ASP.NET, because I am really struggling with the general idea of how ASP.NET flows.
Should I be dynamically loading the controls in Page_Init, or Page_Load? Or should I load the controls when the buttonclick event is fired?Do I have to add the axCtrl.OnDataChange += new EventHandler(HandleAxControlDataChange); line on Page_Load? Or should I put this in When I first load the UserControl, I need to initialize some WebControls within the UserContorl. Is there a way to know if I have loaded new user controls into my placeholder? I can't use Page.IsPostback, because after the first page, every page is a postback from the buttonclick.

Adding user controls dynamically to aspx page
[Code]....
I created a user control, then use LoadControl to call the user control in a web form. Everything is working fine on my computer. When my work is copied to another developer's computer, the content of the user control does not show. All other pages are working fine.
The only difference I could think of between my computer and another computer is the other computer use ajax-created master page. But this web form that calls the user control does not use any master page.
I have a usercontrol that uses a callback to update itself. If I add the control to the aspx page everything works fine. However, when i add the control using Page.LoadControl and Control.Add on a Placeholder i get the following error: "The target 'ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$ctl00' for the callback could not be found or did not implement ICallbackEventHandler". I tryed assigning the ID of the control also which failed with the same error. I am using asp.net 2.0.
View 11 RepliesI have a usercontrol (ascx) that I want to dynamically add to a page.
Neither the control nor the page has a namespace (thanks crappy vendor).
When I use the following, it tells me it cant find the "type or namespace"
StayTunedControl = (UserControler_StayTuned)LoadControl("~/UserControler/StayTuned.ascx");
Page.Controls.Add(StayTunedControl);
StayTunedControl.StayTunedID = Convert.ToInt32(IncludesStayTunedMeta.Value);
After some tweaking to the namespaces, etc, I am now at a point where the 3rd line above generates the following error:
'System.Web.UI.UserControl' does not contain a definition for 'StayTunedID'
I was hoping that casting StayTunedControl as type (UserControler_StayTuned) would fix this.
I have a page where a user can add any number of a specific custom control by clicking a button and delete any of them by checking a "delete" box and clicking the delete button. This custom control has a dropdown, 3 radiobuttons, 2 text boxes and 2 checkboxes. The anomaly occurs when you add at least 2 controls, then delete any of them but the last one.
When each control is rendered the name and id attributes are autoincremented to make them unique however, in the above casewhen the custom control is actually renedered to the page the name attribute has an index that is 1 higher than the id. For example:
here is the name and id of the problem radio button: name = ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$PreOpUpdatePanel$PreOpStatcompareinout1$AllInOut but the id = ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PreOpUpdatePanel_PreOpStatcompareinout0_All
Now I am sure that I am doing somethign wrong but I just do not know what. Since the controls are added dynamically I have to recreate them on each postback so that the postback data can repop the fields. However, when the user deletes then the postback event makes me recreate all of them, then I have to remove the controls the user requested to be deleted. At this point the auto generated index is incorrect so the nextpostback will lose the data so I have to manually renumber the control IDs. Now this seems to work on all other controls within my custom control except for the radio buttons.
I need to let my user add rows dynamically to a table, and after doing some research, it seems the best way to do this is through a GridView bound to a DataTable. However, I'm really struggling adding dropdownlists to the datatable, and this showing them in the gridview.
Here's the design I want:
ddl1 | ddl2 | ddl3 | ddl4 | ddl5 | ddl6 | ddl7 | textbox
When the user opens the form, he or she will be presented with one row. ddl2 etc will be populated when ddl1 is selected etc etc. When appropriate, the textbox will be enabled allowing the user to enter a comment (this is to report errors, and since users are, at best, not to trust to write the same thing twice, I need to use ddls.
Now comes the question - how do I add a ddl to the datatable? I've tried several ways, but I cannot get them added.
I'm looking to add controls dynamically to a table across multiple functions. I'm trying to convert this from a C# app to a web app using asp.net, though this is my first time using asp.net with no web development background. I read the creating tables dynamically in the FAQ but I'm still not sure how to do this.
When pressing the submit button on my form, it will create a table in a place holder. Eventually I would like it to generate urls based on the users input and do this in a function other then the one I created my table in.
In my C# app I was able to add text to a listbox using: lstOutput.Items.Add("Text"); across multiple functions but I'm having trouble doing this with a table.
I understand that my table is a local variable in the submitButton_Click function, but how do I make it global to add rows, cells and controls to it in other functions?

i am kind of new in the .net world. I would like to know how you can add a link column with an image to a datagriid.
P.S. i am using Visual studio 2005.
I've read a few articles on this, but I keep doing something wrong, and I'm not sure what. I took out all of my customization and just want to add a single header row to the very top of my GridView... Can someone show me how I'm screwing up? This is the code I'm trying to use...
[Code]....
I have tried a few different ways of referring to the GridView table... e.row.parent, gv1.controls[0], etc, but nothing seems to work.
I don't get any errors, just nothing ever shows up when the GridView is rendered. I can't find the code using Firebug to look at the HTML either... what am I doing wrong?
(have also tried using "0" for the rowIndex when creating the new GridViewRow)
Is it possible to add RequiredFieldValidator in DetailsView dynamically (programatically)?
View 2 Repliesis there a way I can add a column dynamically from code behind to the gridview in my page?
View 5 RepliesSo I have a gridview control and I am binding it's datasource dynamically base on a dropdownlist. The gridview contains autogenerated columns with auto generated edit buttons. The datasource binded to the gridview is IQueryable<T> where T will be different for different datasource.
My detail problem is below:
A GridView binded to datasource dynamically with all autogenerated columns. When user click edit link, it will display value in autogenerated textboxes.
When user click update link, I am able to capture the user entered value in the textboxes in RowUpdating event, then pass those values to Linq update function to update the database. Now, the problem begin when I try to dynamically add validation controls to each editing row. In RowDataBound event, I am checking the editrowindex then adding validation control to gridview cell and pointing to cell.controls[0] which is the textbox control when the row is in edit mode, I am dynamically setting the textbox control id so that the validation control can set controltovalidate property. The validation control works, but the updating function is setting everything on the grid to empty string.
I am check the textbox text value in the loop, which returns "" for all cells except the id column. It was returning the correct value before I add the validation control. I guess since I added the validation control on rowdatabound event, will it rerender it's own autogenerated textbox in edit mode so that the text value of textbox no longer available in rowupdating event?
Is there a better or correct way to get the cell textbox value? I am using ((TextBox)dc.Controls[0]).Text where dc is DataControlFieldCell in rowupdating event.
I am adding an Image control to grid view in its Row created event.But i am not able to find it in Rowdatabound event handler.
And the image is not getting displayed also.
Now if the move the code to create the Image control dynamically from Row created to RowDatabound event then it is getting displayed.

Here I am binding a gridview. I dont know exactly how many rows it will exists. there may be from 1 to n rows possible there are 4 columns.
Now what I want , i.e. after gridciew binds records, suppose there are 4 rows are bounded to gridview, I want to send all rows data through mail, but in my html format there are fixed rows. I want to add rows according to throws which gridview having.
suppose gridview binds 3 rows the mail format should be like this

1. first tell me how to get this data from gridview in variables so that i can put them in my mail format
2. this condition if grid bind only three records cos I have fiexd rows in my html format.. but if grid is haing 5 records then how will I add rows to table in my mail html format
I am working on asp.net application and code behind is c#
I am having gridview and adding the data to the gridview in the following manner.

I have a listview which has a complicated Item template that contains a repeater, an objectdatasource and some other controls. On the first run I am only showing 10 Items of the listview. The user has an option to show 10 more ListView Items. If user clicks on show older items; the listview shall add another 10 items. how to go around this since my list view already has a datasource and I don't want to rebind the whole listview all over again. Instead; I just want to add another 10 items.
View 7 RepliesI am trying to dynamically add a queryextender expression to the page. something like, when the user clicks a button, we need to add a OrderbyExpression. The following is the code used. It works when added in Page_Load but doesn't when added on a button click event. Upon button click the page just reloads and ignores the filter condition.
OrderByExpression obex = new OrderByExpression();
obex.DataField = "ProductName";
obex.Direction = SortDirection.Descending;
ThenBy tb = new ThenBy();
tb.DataField = "UnitsInStock";
tb.Direction = SortDirection.Ascending;
obex.ThenByExpressions.Add(tb);
this.q.Expressions.Add(obex);
where queryextender1 is the ID of the queryextender
grid:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Outdoor Hours" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Right">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblOutdoorHours" Text='<%# calculateOutdoorHours(Eval("CheckOut")) %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
Function:
protected string calculateOutdoorHours(object CheckOut) {
for (int i = 0; i < grdAttendance.Columns.Count; i++) {
string nextCheckIn = grdAttendance.Rows[i].Columns[1].Text;
TimeSpan duration = DateTime.Parse(nextCheckIn.ToString()).Subtract(DateTime.Parse(CheckOut.ToString()));
return duration.ToString();

I have a grid. I am building and populating it dynamically in C#. Below mentioned is my issue:
string s1 = "string1";
string s2 = "string2";
And then I have a header cell text which needs to be populated like this.
headercell.text = s1 + new string(' ', 20) + s2;
I am not able to get the extra 20 spaces between s1 and s2. It gives me just one space instead of 20 spaces.
I tried using headercell.text = s1 + s2.padleft(' ', 30); even then I am not able to get more than one space between strings s1 and s2.
