Web Forms :: Manual Entry In Dropdownlist On Selecting Particular List Item?
Jan 2, 2011
In my project requirement user wants to enter a manual entry if they can not find an item in the drop down list.
Right now what I am doing is:
I set the dropdown list autopost back true and on selectedchanged event I am hiding the drop down list and showing a text box to enter a manual entry...
This is working perfect and no problems..
but the drop down list needs to change to a text box on only selecting a "unknown" option in the list...all other list items are doing unnecessary post back to the server with no use...
i have used one drop down list box...in that ....whn i m running web applicaiton i need to stick the value which i m selected for the movement upto i select the next choice. it is always going to the first value always. i have 40 items in my drop down. whn i select the 5TH item after selecting 5th item it going to first item.
Suppose I have a list of a couple of thousand organizations and a user needs to be able to select one of them. The list is too large to populate in a dropdown at page load, and the user often knows what they want but it's not the first part of the organization name. That is, they know "Collections" but not that the precise name of the organization is "Department of Collections". So the user will need/want to type in some information.
It's easy enough to use an autocompleting textbox of some kind, but I don't want to allow the user to type in random text - they have to choose one of the organizations explicitly.
I have several asp dropdownlists that are populated from a database. I would like it so that when an item is selected it opens a seperate page depending on the selection.
[Category("Settings")] public int ClientID { get { return Int32.Parse(DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value); } set { DropDownList1.Items.FindByValue(value).Selected = true; } }
Getter commonly is being called by ControlPameters in SqlDataSources on pages with this control.
Setter - from markup: <uc:UserControl1 runat="server" ClientID='<%# Bind("ID") %>' />.
Why does setter from Bind is called earlier then PreRender? And DropDownList is empty and item selecting doesn't work! How to workaround this behavior?
I am trying to set the item that is selected from a drop down list based on what it in the database for that particular record. I am filling the dropdown list with a SQL DataSource I have tried a couple of example that I have found for selecting the item in the list but I am always getting the first item in the list as the selected item. This is what I am currently working with:
Code:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
However, if a user clicks on this more than one click the newer value replaces the previous. Is there a way to keep adding to the cart list when the user clicks on a new item?
Edit:
Here's my code for the Shopping Page:
[Code]....
I dont know if the location of creating the list is important? Wasn't sure if it was placed in the click event if it would keep creating a new instance?
The following example displays a modal dialog box when the user clicks the button.What changes do I have to make to get it to display the dialog when a selection is made from the dropdownlist?
Note that if I set the TargetControlID property from "Button1" to "DropDownList1", teh dialog box is displayed when the dropdown is DROPPED rather than when a selection is actually made.
Does anyone know how to do this so when I select something the 1st dropdown and the 2nd one becomes visible and populates list from a Select statement. I really need help on how to do in an aspx and not on the code behind page.
Wat i did is in the first header of gridview dropdownlist i have binded the PO Item , so that user can select item n make invoice...
Here the problem is user will click addnewrow button to create new row second row , again user is able to select the same item what he selected in first row of gridview. here how to avoid duplication in the second row .
Say i have four PO item
Item1,Item2,Item3,item4
user may select Item1 in first row , after clicking addnewrow button user will get second row
here again user is able to select Item1 from dropdownlist ... how to avoid duplicate selection
coz the dropdownlist is binded from database using sqldatasource n filter based on user selected PO no.
Duplicate Item selection should be removed until all the four item is selected ...
And according below code it will show quantity number in dropdownlist:
protected void OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e) { using (SqlConnection conn = General.GetConnection()) { using (SqlCommand cmd = General.GetCommand("OrderNum", conn))
[Code]....
Now I want when I change dropdownlist Item from gridview it will save quantity(selected Item from dropdownlist) and price and priceT in seesion["Order"] that created in ImgorderM_Click metod...
Sub PFTFormView_ItemUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As FormViewUpdateEventArgs) Dim PFTObj As New PFT Dim PFTDST As New Data.DataSet Dim newPFTLastName As String = DirectCast(PFTFormView.FindControl("txtPFTLastName"), TextBox).Text Dim newPFTFirstName As String = DirectCast(PFTFormView.FindControl("txtPFTFirstName"), TextBox).Text PFTObj.PFTLastName = newPFTLastName PFTObj.PFTFirstName = newPFTFirstName PFTObj.PFTHome = DirectCast(PFTFormView.FindControl("txtPFTHome"), TextBox).Text If PFTObj.UpdatePFT(Session("PFTId")) Then Me.lblErrorMessage.Text = "PFT Update Successfully" Else ' Me.lblErrorMessage.Text = "PFT Update UnSuccessfully" End If PFTDST = Nothing PFTObj = Nothing end sub
I need to the display the ddl as Select Type and when i click the dropdownlist to see the values in it, it should display the three values, but i should not use Select Type as a list item and it should not be displayed in the list. It should only be used as a default text in ddl.
I'm trying to built in my web site the possibility to loud equal fields in the "select" page(when the user select item , I would like items that are related data in the "name column"ill be fire hopefully I'm clear That I have tried doing was in my repository I have written:
I have a drop down box with values that shows on loadUnited States Canada Now I have a function that is checking the users value from the database which is fired on a button click. What I plan on doing is comparing the string like if United States(db value) == United States (dropdown value) then go ahead and select United States in the drop down. When I do this I am getting the right value selected but it is making all the values the same for all records.
i am using a treeview control in my master page to act like a menu.it has different nodes levels e.g. root, parent and left.when i click an item from the tree view - i am taken to the page - but the tree view goes to its orginal state of being collapsed rather than keeping its state of nodes that have been expanded.does anyone know how i can maintain the state of the tree view in the master page
