Web Forms :: Using Dynamic Database Data For Actionlink Names?
Jun 21, 2010
Rather than having a details button next to the database entry I would like to make a link out of the name field.basically i want the item.Name field to be the name of the link in theHtml.ActionLink(" **here*** ", "Details", new blablalba)What is the syntax to do this in asp.net
We're working in a Dynamic Data project that will handle entities coming from two different namespaces: myModel.Abby and myModel.Ben.
whose classes are:
[code]...
So myModel.Abby.Car and myModel.Ben.Car are homonym. when I try to register both ObjectContext's, an exception is thrown telling us that there are type name conflicts between the mentioned classes (although the types belong to different namespaces).
How can we overcome type-name conflicts, caused by repeated type names among different namespaces?
I've created a Dynamic Data project with an Entity Framework model. It works nicely. But, right now it shows all my database tables with the db column names - which aren't always the most friendly (e.g. address_line_1). How can I got about giving these more friendly column titles that will display to the end user?
However my buttons need to be translated into difrent languages depending on the country the user is in Im translating the button lable text fine in my controller and passing it into the view , but now im alittle stumped over syntax Id like to replace "Swap User" above with
I got a design which I basicly use for 100's of websites, and have a virtual folder for masterpages with is copied from a project using build events.Each Masterpage (as this stage), I can rename them or change the names if it helps with this problem, but I need to be able to access the propertys in the masterpage code / dllso I have come up with this
I have a database with two columns: Retailers or Traders. A row can have only one of them with values while the other must be 'Null'. Both are nvarchars kinds. What I am trying to do is to show data if a radio button is selected for either Retailer or Trader. So I constructed a SelectCommand statement which is getting column names of either 'Retailers' or 'Traders' as a parameter but the SelectCommand statement still returns all records. What can I do?
I'm trying to learn MVC and I'm playing around with the MvcMusicStore tutorial.I'm trying to modify the StoreController to change some of the behaviours.I'd like to change the route behaviour from:
i want to build dynamic sitemap from database..even my menu items are also dynamic...and i want do display sitemap having categories and related menu items from database..
so i dont know how to build dynamic site and create dymanic links of that menus and categories..
Example: we have different articles in a database like cars, jewelery, boats. The data related to these articles is different in the tables. I have to show that data in a textboxes and let the user change those data and update. I can do the update and reading the data from database. But the problems is for each item the no.of columns and rows will differ.
My task is I need to get the data according to the use selection in the table with textboxes. I dont know which container (gridview, formview or etc) will suites for my requirement. send me any sample code or any tutorial related to this.
Note: showing the data in a table should be a constraint. Because I should show data row wise (each row contains 3 textboxes and 3 labels (DB table column names))
I have DropDownList displays all server present in my network I want to populate the databse names when i changed it into another dropdown I want a LINQ query to get this.
I have been working with this database for some time. Here is the situation...
I inherited a MS SQL database that has hundreds of tables with similar data. For instance:
FordTampa_customer is a table,
ChevyAtlanta_customer is a table, etc....
All of the columns are the same...just different tables with their own ID field. All I have done...Inside of another database id is created a table called 'Customer' and added an 'Dealer ID' column along with the rest of the other columns in the other tables...
So the combination of the 'Dealer ID' and the 'ID' field are unique.....I know...its not the best way to do things...but I cannot change the old data structure because I cannot have access to it. I am give back-ups on a weekly basis, so this is all I have to work with.
All right, on to the real point of my post...
Currently, I have an application that I use to select all of the data from the 'Ford_customers','Chevy_customers',etc... and inserts them into my new main 'Customer' table. I do this by selecting the table names, bind it to an arraylist, loop through the list and execute an insert statement.
I do this in VB.NET, but I would prefer to do it in a Stored procedure of some kind....I just am not sure how to accomplish it. I use this syntax to get my list of tables:
[Code]....
I am not sure how to take those names from the table and do another select based on that list of names.
I have a page with a data repeater. Each row has a dropdownlist for the user to select a value and the values in every dropdown are the same. I also have an SqlDataSource which each dropdownlist gets its values from as its created. Everything is working as it should but for each dropdown that is rendered a seperate call is made to the database.
suggest a better way for me to do this that means only one call to the database for all dropdowns rendered?
Given a string in my database like "Computer Gadget", I am trying to achieve a url format like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer-gadget" when a user clicks a link to the item "computer gadget" from a list view.In my list view for the products, I have Action links that read like this
[Code]....
When I hover over this link on the rendered page I get a link that looks like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer+gadget"and the correct product detail is returned after I have url.decoded the string in my Details method. However, the returned page displays a url that looks like "http://xyz.com/products/details/computer%2bgadget"How can I get the returned url to show "computer-gadget" instead?Also when a name has "&" or "/" the server throws a Http 400 error message. I know these are unsafe values, but is there a way to work around this safely to allow the strings keep these characters?
We are buling a hosted ecommerce shopping cart solution and I would like to use asp.net's built-in membership provider. We dont really want to have a seperate database for each domain, we want to share the same database across mupltiple domains for different customers. Each domain is a seperate store.
My problem is that since it's a shared hosted solution people coming from different domains might use the same user name and it would show as if already existed. Is there an addional field I can use to store the domain name so basicly would be unique by username and domain name. We don't want to share information between stores.
Like this: select * from foo where @nameofdbcolumnprovidedbyparam = 1? Whenever I attempt this with sqldatasource or in ado I get errors such as: Syntax error converting the nvarchar value 'foo' to a column of data type int.
I've a few pages content on a database with a large content.
Should i use a database to store it or try another solution to avoid many connections to database from users? I've thought and XML document but i want to avoid problems with html tags.
About performance, is there better using an database or other solution?

I've watched the Slideshow videos and created a number of examples that run fine. The code I've attached at the bottom is the smallest one, but instead of hard coding the image locations, I would like to select the slides from either of the following statements, which return the top 5 images selected randomly from our floorplans database.
<asp:AccessDataSource id="AccessDataSource1" runat="server" DataFile="../fpdb/J3_2005.mdb" SelectCommand="SELECT TOP 5 [Elev_Pimage] FROM [PLANS_Active] ORDER BY RND(INT(NOW*[SF_Total])-NOW*[SF_Total])" /> or,
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:J3_2005Slideshow %>" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:J3_2005Slideshow.ProviderName %>" SelectCommand="SELECT TOP 5 [Elev_Pimage] FROM [PLANS_Active] ORDER BY RND(INT(NOW*[SF_Total])-NOW*[SF_Total])" /> <title>SlideShow</title>
