Web Forms :: Strange Dropdown List Behavior On Page Load?
Apr 3, 2010
I have a page with 14 dropdown lists. In the first page load (ie. not isPostback) I set the selectedIndex of the dropdownlists individually but I find that they are all set to the value I use for the last dropdownlist set. Here is the code
comboFirstJudge1.SelectedIndex = 0
comboFirstJudge2.SelectedIndex = 0
<so on for all the dropdown lists until the last one>
comboFirstJudge14.SelectedIndex = 4
The result is that all dropdown lists have SelectedIndex = 4. If I run the same code on a postback it works just fine (the first lists have SelectedIndex = 0 and the last one = 4).
I have strange behavior when changing from ItemTemplate to EditItemTemplate. both the ItemTemplate and EditItemTemplate contain the same textbox with multiline. Except the ItemTemplate got the ReadOnly parameter. When the row is getting in EditMode and I enter the textbox everything is disabled. I click on another column that contains a label instead of a multiline textbox and get back in the textbox I can do everything. When I enter in the same row another MultiLine textbox I cannot do anything until I click on a label and get back in that TextBox. When the textboxes are in normal mode I don't seem to be having this issues. What is changed between the MultiLine and SingleLine textbox? What kind of PostBack or something could cause this strange behavior?
I have a dropdown control that has a list of names in it called PlayerNameDropDownList_Insert and a textBox called PlayerName.
When I select a name from the dropdown it populates the textbox correctly.However, when the page opens the first name is selected in the dropdown but nothing in the textbox. How can I get the textbox to populate with the value of the dropdown at pageload?
I have a site that was sucesfully upgraded to Framework 3.5 on Vista with VS2008. Now however after installing VS2010 and upgraded to Win 7 wierd things are happenning and was wonderring if any of you have experienced this and how you've dealt with it.First thing I notice in my main page that the four user controls are not in alignment. They should appear side by side in a single row, however now they spread acros two rows with one on top and three on the bottom. Also my graphics and navigation is not where they supposed to be. Just for comparison, if run the existing solution on Win 2003 with VS2008, it works like it supposed to. All the formatting is handled in .css and that didn't change either.
I have an issue that seems to only happen on my production server. I show or hide table rows whenever the buttons are clicked. However, when I do a postback on the checkbox, all of the rows become visible and the textbox stays empty. It works correctly on my test server and local workstation, just not in production.
Here is the markup...
[Code]....
Here is the code behind...
[Code]....
Here are the unexpected results whenever I check the chkShow2 checkbox... I am guessing this is a configuration issue on the server.
the javascript is working perfectly and changes the value of the textbox.the problem happens when i submit the form - what is extracteed by the model from the textbox is the string "on", and after the submit, it also changes the value of the textbox to "on".when i load the field with a value from the model, it goes ok, and does not change
I have a simple procedure which updates a table. The procedure works fine and I have tested it in Management Studio. However when I am calling that procedure from code, nothing is happening. cmd.ExecuteScalar returns null when it should return the ID.Has anyone faced anything similar? Any pointers as to how this can be resolved?
I've got a user control that is displayed via a PopupControlExtender. The user control is a GridView that dynamically adds columns to the control to display the results of a SELECT statement. The PopupControlExtender correctly displays the control and the control displays the neccessary columns. However, when the control is first displayed, the column widths are ignored, despite that they are explicity set. If the control is displayed and then hidden, the column widths are acknowledged the next time the control is displayed.
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.
I've noticed that page load time increases dramatically as you load up a ddlistbox with items. 10,000 or so results in a pretty much unacceptable wait time for my setup. The dropdown I'm trying to load is Airports - like all of them. What are some alternative UI solutions that give the user the ability to easily select any (literally) airport, but without a ginormous page loading time? (Currently the dd is keyed to the airport's 3 letter code, so it's convenient for the prepared user to just type the 3-letter code and have the right airport selected. The display is then set to code, city, country.)
I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category". When i click on edit to edit or change category, it doesn't display the selected category.

I am new here so I will try and give you as much detail as I can:
(C# + SQL)
I am developing a web site that has holiday prices which are taken from a different database and loaded into two SQL databases.I have two girdviews to display each of the prices data.What my issues is that I need to load an SqlDataSource on database 1,when 'Family' is selected from a dropdown list and run an SqlDataSource on database 2 when 'Themed' is selected and then run both when 'Don't Mind' is selected.
I have applied nested master page to some page. Now i want to bind drop downlist from value selected in dropdown list in master page of master applied to that page.
the hierarchy of pages is
mypage.aspx -> main.aspx -> inner.master
I want bind dropdown list in mypage.aspx from from value selected in dropdown list in inner.master
I have a function on page load which will work based on dropdown selected value. and I am using this dropdown in a user control. So getting problem because the dropdown value is not loaded yet before Page Load. How Can I do that using those control still.
Here is my code below.
public partial class GradeEntry : System.Web.UI.Page { StudentManager studentManager = null; CourseManager courseManagerObj = null; GradeManager gradeManager = null;
I have a created a form using a user control. One of the dropdownlists in the form is populated after the user makes a specific selection from another dropdownlist...i.e. a dependent dropdown list. This is triggered using the SelectedIndexChanged event handler on the controllling dropdownlist.
The dependent dropdownlist gets populated correctly, but when I choose one of the options and go to submit the form, the dependent dropdown list is reset and doesn't maintain the selection that was made.
The controlling dropdown list ID is "level". The dependent dropdown list ID is "EnrollmentSize".
The "EnrollmentSize" DDL only losses the option that was selected. The DDL is sitll populated with all the correct values. It only losses the option that was selected and goes back to the first option...i.e. "Select..."
The viewstate on the page is enabled and all the other form values are maintained. It is only happening with the EnrollmentSize ddl.
I've set breakpoints and tried debugging and I do see that the EnrollmentSize.SelectedValue is an empty string, but I don't see why or where that is happening in the button click event
I thought it had something to do with EnableViewState,but that is set to true and has no bearing. Everytime I try to submit the form, the "EnrollmentSize" DDL is reset and doesn't maintain the option that is selected.
I would like to ask a question about hiding a drop down in my gridview. I have a gridview and I have a drop down list to control the page size of that gridview. when there is data in that gridview, it is fine for user to see the drop down list. But when there are records in the gridview, I do not want the user to see this drop down list. How can I hide it when there is no data?
In my web form, i have 2 drop downlist controls. eg. dropdown1 and dropdown2. I will change the dropdownlist1 item, consequently selectedindexchanged event fires and reloads the dropdownlist2 items. And i have another button also in order to get the result based on the dropdown1 and dropdown2. Lets say for example, i have a list of countries in dropdown1 and a list of states in dropdown2. I selected "India" in dropdown1 and correspondingly "Tamilnadu" in dropdown2. And then click a button which calls the dataset based on dropdown1 and dropdown2. The problem i face here is, whenever i click on the button to load the dataset, dropdown1 value remains the same as the dataset is not called again, whereas the dropdown2 value changes to the first one as it gets called automatically during postback. For your information, I have loaded both the lists in the page load using (!IsPostback) property.
I have 2 drop down lists.I have a very simple dropdown list #1 that diplays a title and holds an id value which is a GUID.I know it is getting this value and sending this value as I tested sending it to a label.I have the dropdown list #1 to autopostback to dropdown list #2 that "Is supposed to get" another title and value based on the GUID value of the first dropdown list. for some reason it wont return anything. I have done 100's of these but never based off a guid value.I assume the value needs to be converted to guid before selecting it in the second dropdown list.How can I do this? or is there something I am missing?
