Web Forms :: RequiredFieldValidator Not Working When Edit FormView?
Mar 4, 2011
I have a FormView in which I have placed RequiredFieldValidators on some of the input controls in EditItemTemplate. But the validators all don't work when I hit the submit button.
I've tried FormView1.FindControl("RequiredFieldValidator1").Enabled = true but the compiler complains that 'System.Web.UI.Control' does not contain a definition for 'Enabled'.
i do have a form. inside specific asp:textboxes are "secured" by RequiredFieldValidator and RegularExpressionValidator running. in another div-element i do have buttons, which are expected to load different pages of my website. the problem is: when i click on either of these buttons it is not working as my validation-controls are fired prior to the onclick-button-events.
I create a new website in VS 2010 (VB .Net). I add a table, within it i add a textbox, a button and a RequiedFieldValidator. I set the RFV ControlTValidate property to the textbox. When i move(click or tab) away from the textbox, the RFV doesnt kick in the error message that i have set.
The RFV code is <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtEnterName" ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator" InitialValue="0" ForeColor="#FF3300"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> Texbox <asp:TextBox ID="txtEnterName" runat="server" Width="221px"></asp:TextBox>
I've recently finished building one of my first websites (and CMS) in ASP.NET but have came across a problem where a RequiredFieldValidator isn't working as it should do? I originally created the admin page to not require the RequiredFieldValidator, but now that I do need it the page won't acknowledge it's there. I have even set the field in the database to not accept nulls, but the query will still insert a null value into the database (SQL Server 2008 Express).
The TextBox that I'm referring to is "txtSectionTitle"
I have a dropdown list, where when I select OPTION value a Textbox appears. The issue is that when, I submit directly the required filed errors gives me message for both ie for dropdown and Textbox. It should only give error for dropdown.
Second thing,
The textbox validation is not firing when submitted without any value in it.
I have a WebForms app that uses a field validator on a dropdownlist. It works in IE but not FireFox. This is pretty straightforward stuff I'm doing. Here are the setups for the dropdown and validator:
I'm running ASP.Net 2.0 on the web server. Javascript is enabled on the FireFox browser-- this problem happens on all FF browsers I've tested, on multiple everyday machines, so I don't believe it's due to a locked down install.
dear all, my requiredfieldvalidator is screwing up my ok button in my modalpopup and I dont know why. In otherwords, once I include my requiredfieldvalidator and the user clicks ok in the modalpopup, the ok doesnt get fired. see my code below.
This is what i have using VS and VB: formview that is bound to a sqldatasource. In the formview i set up three panels and the visibilty is controlled by three buttons. I want to be able to click the edit link button and have the panel that is visible in readonly mode be the one visible in editmode
there are 2 pages (SummaryGridviewPage.aspx and FormviewPage.aspx) there are insert, item and update templates in the FormviewPage 1st case - there is no problem to insert new record, select and update action in the FormviewPage
2nd case - However, there is problem when i select a record in GV and direct to FormviewPage for edit this code is added in Formviewpage to open the record at readonly mode, no problem
Private Sub RF_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init If Session("RecordID") <> "" Then ' to check New or Old record SqlDataSourceRF.SelectParameters.Item("New_ID").DefaultValue = Session("RecordID") FormViewProject.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.ReadOnly) End If End Sub
however, no record if go further from readonly to edit mode then Code is added to the Edit button
Protected Sub BtnEdit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) FormViewProject.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit) SqlDataSourceRF.SelectParameters.Item("New_ID").DefaultValue = Session("RecordID") FormViewProject.DataBind() End Sub
Now edit problem is solved but when go back to the 1st case (new record, and then edit) Now new record can be inserted, and then show it in readonly mode. but then try to go to edit mode, no record show i think BtnEdit_Click code is conflicted with the built-in "Edit" command Could anyone show me some info how formview retrieve specific record in a proper way?
Is it possible to update and edit a record in Formview at the same time. Currently, the formview's default mode is set to Insert where users can add a new record to an SQL database, however, when that record is added I need that information to update another table all on one click. Is this possible with a stored procedure or a button that allows both?
I keep getting a null reference when I try to access a listbox inside the EditItemTemplate of a formview. I check the mode before accessing the control (Formview1.CurrentMode) to make sure it is in edit mode and even set it manually to edit mode again! But formview1.findcontrol("blah") returns null. Formview1.EditItemTemplate does not have a FindControl method, not sure what else to try.
I have a combobox that is used as a control for Formview, so when the user selects a name from the combobox the data in formview displays in edit mode. However, some if the data that is displayed in formview needs to be empty. For example if the Date is being pulled in, it needs to be empty or null in edit mode.
I have created a Formview1 which have 3 columns Name, Status and Description. I just wanted to update display the Status and Description but not the Name. Can anyone give me any guidelines how I can do this.
I am using a dropdownlist inside Edit template of a formview,, the problem it is not saving the value ,, Here is my code : I am only updating the (status)
I'm having a hard time solving what should (I think) be an easy problem. I have a formview defaulting to Editmode. One of my data fields is a binary image. How can I change the editItem template to allow a user to upload a new image into the binary image field?
