How to add list items "yes" , "no"
I need to get a dropdownlist itemlist to expand in MSIE. The width of the dropdownlist control is set to a fixed width and it cannot be altered onclick, so I need to have the list of items that drops down when clicking autoexpand widthwise. I have tried several different jquery options that are out there, but they are not stable because they do not work on every click and sometimes forces the user to click twice for the itemlist to appear. Displaying a tooltip is not enough, I need to see the list expanded.
The list should look like this;
**DROPDOWNLISTCONTROL**
**LONG CONTENT THAT STRETCHES WHEN EXPANDED**
The list currently look like this in MSIE, and I cannot expand the dropdownlistcontrol,
**DROPDOWNLISTCONTROL**
**LONG CONTENT THAT STR**
Is there anyone who knows of a smart way to do this?
I have a DropdownList where some of the items are longer then the width of the list. Firefox expands the width of the list and shws the full length of the ListItem, but Explorer (som people still use that) doesn't do that which results unability to read the whole of the ListItem. I added a "Title" attribute (Tooltip) to the ListItems which shows the full text but even though, the client asks if it's possible to split long ListItems in several lines so user will be able to read it without needing the Tooltip.
View 7 RepliesI am using Visual Studio 10/ASP4 but I am sure this problem is me. I created a program and got it all working. GridView and DetailsView, edit, insert and delete all works. :-)... I have spent 4 solid days attempting to have a simple DropDownList with three items on it EDIT a record. Lots of GOOGLeing for suggestions. It just will not work. The insert dropdown works fine(thats how I created the record). I wrote a new simplified program with just the detailsview and the edititem dropdownlist. Still can't get it to work. The detailsview data has a record and the "mode" field (char(20)) has three letters "FTP" in it. The letters display on the Detailsview. I can edit fine but when I add the following drop down list the page aborted with a
"'DropmodeEdit' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.
Parameter name: value"
Yet there is only one record and it HAS "FTP" in it! The list has FTP in it? I just don't get it, why?
I added an ondatabinding routine and breakpointed it in the try/catch and found the selectedindex pointed to the correct entry and the items list had the correct entry with no spurious data or spaces. The data being passed displayed good in the detailsview, Am I correct in assuming that is bound to the dropdownlist automatically? or is there some majic that I did not get from Rob Burke?
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="mode" SortExpression="mode" >
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList DataValueField="mode" DataTextField="mode" ID="DropmodeEdit" Runat="server"
OnDataBinding="mode_OnDataBinding" AppendDataBoundItems="True"

I have used a dropdownlist once before with a datasource instead of listitems, this should be easier?
I have a dropdownlist that I already have manually databinding. I currently get the data, loop through each item, and depending on values in the item, change the css for the individual ListItem.
For example:
foreach (Site mySite in myList)
{
ListItem li = new ListItem(mySite.FullAddress, mySite.Id.ToString());
if (mySite.DisabledFlg)
{
li.Attributes.Add("style", "color:#999");
}
this.Items.Add(li);
}
I'm trying to force the text in the listitem to break at certain points. The string that I retrieve from the datasource currently has a " " everywhere where there should be a line break. This works fine for display in a normal textbox, but it doesn't work on the listitem. I've tried replacing the " " with a "<br>" but when I do that, it just displays <br> in the listem along with the rest of the text. I've tried wrapping the listitem contents in a "div" with a width attribute, but it also just display the "div" tag literally in the ListItem text. I've also tried adding the following to the ListItem attributes at bind:
li.Attributes.Add("width", "100px");
But that hasn't resulted in any change either.
I've seen custom drop down list controls that have multiline listitems in them.
I want to add some listitems to dropdownlist using dropdownlist.items.add(). After the call, the data can be added into the dropdownlist. but strangely, if I select one item from it, the control does not receive the SelectedIndexChanged message.

View 3 RepliesI have an asp.net site. It has an order form which is accessible at https://secure.example.com/order.aspx. The links on the site do not include the domain name. So for example the home page is 'default.aspx'.The issue is that if I click on a link like the home page from the secure page, the url becomes https://secure.example.com/default.aspx instead of http://www.example.com/default.aspx.What's a good way to handle this? The scheme should automatically work using any domain name based on where it's launched from. So if the site is launched from 'localhost', moving away from the secured page, the url's should be http://localhost/...

Need a little guidance on handling selected items in a listview and sessions.
First, the CheckBoxList looks like this:
[Code]....
In the code behind for that page, I'm trying to put the store the selected values into the session like this:
[Code]....
Finally, I want to retrieve the items and wind up with a string containing the items (I think I want a string--what I need to do is put the items into a variable so I can display them in a Label control and also include them in the text of an email that gets generated. Here is how I'm attempting to retrieve the items:
[Code]....
But my variable "Opportunities" ends up with this value: "System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItemCollection".
I need to access the key values of the individual Checkboxes in my CheckBoxList in the client. The code below works to select the text however, I want to access the integer values as below.
<asp:CheckBoxList id=rbGender runat="server" Width="200px" RepeatDirection="Horizontal">
<asp:ListItem Value="-1">-1</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="0">Female</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="1">Male</asp:ListItem>
</asp:CheckBoxList>

I need to provide a way to allow users to select 1 Subject, but the subjects are grouped into Qualifications and so I want to show a heading for each 'group'. My first thought is an asp:RadioButtonList as that provides a list of options from which only one can be selected but there's no means to add break the list up with headings. So I tried the following code - but I can't see that the LiteralControl is being added, which makes me think it's not a valid approach.
For Each item As Subject In Qualifications
If item.QualCode <> previousQualCode Then
rblSelection.Controls.Add(New LiteralControl(item.QualName))

I have a userControl that contains a radioButtonList, a label control (used for captions) and a bunch of validation controls. I have included all the public properties that allow me to dynamically add list items (ie from the DB) but I'm wondering if there is a way to allow the user to add listItems via the markup like you would when using a regular <asp:RadioButtonList control?
So the markup would look like this:
<uc1:MyRadioButtonList ID="rblComm" runat="server" Caption="Commissions">
<uc1:ListItem value=".1" Text="10%" />
<uc1:ListItem Value=".2" Text="20%" />
</uc1:MyRadioButtonList>
I am binding a BulletedList control in page load to a datasource, what i want to do is to set custom IDs for this BulletedList's ListItems while binding This custom ID will be in my current case "li_"+ItemId.ToString()
Sample Code i used to fill the bulletedList:
bulletedList.DataSource = MyDataCollection;
bulletedList.DataTextField = "Name";
bulletedList.DataValueField = "Id";
bulletedList.DataBind();
for the radiobuttonlist control, when I try to style individual buttons with 'span'I get a error, is there some way to style each button?
[Code]....
error is:
System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItemCollection must have items of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListItem'. 'span' is of type 'System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl

View 4 RepliesI have a gridview with 3 nested dropdownlists in one cell on edit like this:To get the exact fields when the user clicks on edit I used the following code(yes it's messy)
[Code]....
The BLLOnderhoud is a class and the getReserveInfo is used to get the Model - Brand(merk) Information.Since the dropdownlists are nested in the gridview I can't call them directly and they can't call any of my functions.And this is the problem, when I change the dropdownfield Model the Auto field wich is the last dropdown(in the picture is a typo) should be binded like in the following code:

But the dropdownlist onDataBound event can't call any of my functions that are in my class.So my question is how can the onDataBound event of the second dropbox trigger a function? The only thing that the function has to do is to bind the 3rd dropdownlist
