Web Forms :: Programmatically Created Event Handler For A Button Doesn't Fire Up?
Mar 21, 2010
I'm trying to manually create a button and add a Click event handler for it in code. However when the button is clicked the event handler doesn't seem to react on event (or event isn't called).
we tested the code in Visual Studio 2008 and everything worked just as it should. And I'm using Visual Web Developer 2005 XE. So I assume that I'm missing something to be done manually being in VWD 2005 XE, or the problem is in VWD 2005 XE it self.
I need to generate a button way after the page loads but I can't work out how to deal with the Event handler. If I do this when the page loads as shown bellow it works as intended but if I use the exact same method in a button it fails. (it creates the button but when I click the button it just disappears instead of showing a msgbox."I know I shouldn't use Msgbox in a web form but I only do it as a test then remove it"
Code: Partial Class Default3 Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim mybutton As Button mybutton = New Button mybutton.Text = "Submit"
Does anyone have a good vb example of adding an "onClick" event to a button that is dynamically added into a templatefield of a gridview. MSDN just says to use the addhandler statement with no other good info for a 'dynamic' scenario:
I have a grid view in Ajax UpdatePanel. In a column of a grid view I have a button call btnAddNewRecord. I need to fire btnAddNewRecord.Click event once I click on that.
I'm dynamically creating a table on my page with rows and controls. It looks like a gridview but it's not (it should've been, but too late now, seriously). I have a first name, last name, date of birth, etc. I want each row to have a button to add rows underneath it. So I create an event handler each time I create a new row and assign it to the click event of a button contained in the row. But it's not getting called.
Is it correct that the event handler doesn't stay established because the buttons are dynically created and are lost when the page posts back?
I am building a web site with visual web developer 2010
I have a class (autoButton) that adds a button to a panel (on Default.aspx) and a handler w/i the same class (classifyEventHandler)
The button appears fine, but when clicked the even doesnt fire, what am I doing wrong?
I tried locating the event handler in default.aspx, but it was not found :P
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic Public Class autoButton Public Sub makeClassifyButton(ByVal theCell As Object) Dim myButton As New Button myButton.Text = "classify" myButton.ID = "b_classify_" + theCell.ID AddHandler myButton.Click, AddressOf classifyEventHandler theCell.Controls.Add(myButton) End Sub Private Sub classifyEventHandler(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) MsgBox("done?!") End Sub End Class
I am fairly new to the asp.net and experimenting with it to learn the page life cycle. Here is a problem that I have been unable to resolve for past few days.I have a hosting page (.aspx). Then I have two user controls (.ascx). The page has a place holder control in which it loads the user controls one at a time based on the application flow. First user control is loaded on application start up. It has a "continue" button. Continue button click loads the Second user control that has two buttons - "Back" and "Submit". Obviously the "Back" button should load the first user control again and Submit button should submit the form data.
Here's an odd one that I've never seen before. Only on IIS, not in Cassini but in all web browsers I have a button that posts back and the page_load event fires, but the actual button click event doesn't fire. there is no re-writing of the page or anything else happening.
i have a JQuery ui dialog box that opens up as a contact form when a link is clicked, which works fine, my problem is trying to submit the information.
When you click the send button it fires a button click event of another asp:button ive got hidden on the page...
the post back event fires and the page reloads but the asp:button click event doesn't not fire?
MdsMenu:MenuItem is my custom WebControl. If I insert a Button control out of MdsMenu:MenuItem tag it works well but if I inserted it within MdsMenu:MenuItem tag it doesn't fire the concerned method. What's wrong with my code?

Trying to get a helloworld web application up running in Visual Web Developer 2010.
Now I created a new project with Home controller and two default views (index and about).
Then in the index view I added a button and a textbox...double clicking the button creates a handler in the view, but it's never called...what am I missing?
I have a modalpopup that i have opening on a radiobutton selection. That works great, opens when it should and closes when you click cancel. BUT i have the following on my cancel button event that is not firing
[Code]....
I also have a button event for my "OK" button and that works great, but my cancel event doesnt seem to fire or work. Maybe the ClearSelection() is not what i need..
I want to clear the radiobutton if they cancel out of the ModalPopUp so they can make a new selection, since its a required field.
i have two nested gridview inside an update panel. there is a button called btnPhoneEdit inside the child grid view. when the button gets clicked, it do cause partial post back as expected but it fails to invoke btnPhoneEdit_Click.
here is how my grid view looks like and how i add my custom data source to both parent and child grid view. [Code]....
I am fairly new to the asp.net and experimenting with it to learn the page life cycle. Here is a problem that I have been unable to resolve for past few days.
I have a hosting page (.aspx). Then I have two user controls (.ascx). The page has a place holder control in which it loads the user controls one at a time based on the application flow. First user control is loaded on application start up. It has a "continue" button. Continue button click loads the Second user control that has two buttons - "Back" and "Submit". Obviously the "Back" button should load the first user control again and Submit button should submit the form data. Pretty simple.
The problem is that the command button event handler that I have on the second user control is not firing the first time. (I have one event handler for both buttons). The load event of the user control fires but then it ignores the button click. If I click it again, then it fires. I re-load the controls on the page in every page_load. Here is some relevent code:
AddPlayer.aspx:
[Code]....
The page_Load fires every time but "CommandBtn_Click" doesn't fire after the first click. I have to do it click it again. It doesn't matter which order I click the buttons.
THE LAST METHOD _insertin is NEVER FIred UP. The Update pases correctly ands I will not give the code for the object data source.
My purpose is to include code into on insert code that assign value to a column .
Can you take a look. I'm novice to ASP.net .I'm A DBA and would like to Use ASP for UI to May database. I dont have the goal to become profesional in that field.
I'm creating some linkbuttons dynamically and assigning properties like below. Also I'm adding an event handler to the created link button:
[Code]....
What happens here is when the links created at runtime are clicked, most of the links are linked to other applications. (e.g from app1 to app2, app1 to app3 etc..) So when moving from the current app to the next I want to abandon the current session. However, this event is not firing before navigating to the next page. Could someone suggest a workaraound or the correct way to accomplish that?
I hv created a menu during runtime.. my menu items are from the database. . wen i click the particular menu item, it shud redirect me to the related webpage. .
I wanna know how can i make menuitemclick event fired... nd how can i set different redirect webpages for different menu items as all the menu items r loaded at runtime..
I have a treeview on the left panel and the gridview in the content page. Both the treeview and the gridview bind to the same datasource and have the same functionality. For instance, clicking employer in the treeview and clicking the employer link in the gridview take you to the same page. All I want is when I click the employer link in the gridview, I want the gridview row command event to call the selectednodechanged event of the treeview, so that the treenode for employer has the selected node style and performs the function of hte selectednodechanged. i have tried treeview.nodes[0].select but this does not fire the selectednodechanged event.
I've created a UserControl that is dynamically placed onto my page during the Init event. It populates and works great, but I'm left scratching my head at how to retrieve data from it during a postback.
It's effectively a multipick combobox that is manipulated entirely using clientside JavaScript (I'm using jQuery heavily). Inside the control container element, I render an empty DIV element that contains all of the selected items. As the user selects items, I generate DIVs within that container DIV that includes some markup. Of interest to me on the server side are the contents of a couple of INPUT fields.
After selecting an item, the rendered HTML looks something like:
[code]....
I may be completely off track and this may actually be impossible (or a stupid idea). The only alternative I can think of is to emit actual ASP.NET controls and hook the built-in event handlers.
I have a page that is using the Ajax asynch file uploader. What I would like to have happen is after the file is uploaded I would like to have it displayed in a list on the page. I am looking for a way to fire a callback event when the file upload is complete. Is it possible using the asynch fileupload control?
