Web Forms :: Adding Dynamic Fields And Dynamic RequiredFieldValidators?
Jul 28, 2010
So am adding fields in the code behind and now want to add required field validators. Kicker, I think comes into play becasue all this is in a master page. So even though I may set the id of the textbox to say tb4, it's no longer tb4. So when I add the required field validator and tell it the control to validate is tb4, I get the yellow screen of death telling me thtat tb4 does not exist... cause it's the long huge master page ID. What do I do?
I am adding text fields to a page from the database. I set the .ID to match the record ID from the database. Of course becasue the text field is on the masterpage, when I grab the .ClientID, it is ctl00 contentMain$ctl00. what I don't get is where is my ID? If I set it to say AB how do I find the textbox by AB? I thought it should have AB in the ID somewhere. ID is nothing which I don't get either. I'm looping through the controls in a placeholder like this
For Each row In dtData.Rows() Dim c As Control For Each c In phTextRequired.Controls If c.UniqueID = row("CustomFieldID").ToString() Then
Again though what is in the row() is say AB but the id is way off from that.
I have a dynamic Table which contain 8 rows and 8 Colums
Table t = new Table(); TableRow rr = new TableRow(); TableCell cc = new TableCell(); and in the each Cell CC I add a dynamic Button(Or Linkbtn) LinkButton LB1 = new LinkButton(); LB1.Text = "AM"; LB1.ID ="Link1"; cc.Controls.Add(LB1); rr.Cells.Add(cc); LB1.Click += new EventHandler(LB1_Click); t.Rows.Add(rr);
i have a table with 8 rows , 8 colums and each cell contain a LinkButton (which diffrent in IDs) I want to add Lable in the same cell of this LinkBtn(LB1) which it clicked but I cann't What shoud I write here?
above string i have displayed in front end thrgh response.write i.e by assigning string abc to viewstate. also i am tryin to genetrate above input fields from database , so i have to make it dynamic in a loop. so when a user updates any of those dynamically created fields i need to retreive those values in a loop
something like this :
field1.text , field2.text ......so on till fieldn.text ....i want to assign these values to array
like :
string[] arr1 = new string[nooffields]; arr1[i] = fieldi.text;
I have tried various techniques that some seemed to have outlined and so far none of them have worked. I have a situation where the Page_Load() needs to build a set of <input id=<dynamic name'>> that are build dynamically inside a <ul>. The form gets created fine but when I click the button and look at the results returned to the server I cannot seem to find the input values. Is there a defined way of accomplishing this?
Scenario: I have a form with 3 input fields (text1, text2, text3). Is there a method to capture these fields in the aspx file of a second webform? I think you have to use someting like <%= %> but I'm not sure.Idon't want to use the code behind file because the number of input fields is dynamic
I am dealing with dynamic fields in a for loop and now I need to retrieve the values that are being typed in the dynamic fields, any idea how can I do that? 2)also when I click the submit button, upon postback, the dynamic fields have gone missing, have been trying to slove that, but i did not, anyone knows how to deal with this? kinda urgent :x
3) and How do you compare the 2 dynamic fields? For eg: Im comparing the tbSch[i] to tbSch[i], so that the dates cannot be the same, am using a compare validator, but it throws me error that im comparing the same fields :) even though i change to ("tbSch" + i) for both, sorry Will provide my code snippet as follow :D tbNum is a textbox where user enter numbers and click generate
protected void btnGen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { for (int i = 0; i < Convert.ToInt32(tbNum.Text); i++) { // label and textbox needed Label lblSch = new Label(); TextBox tbSch = new TextBox(); Label lblWsGrp = new Label(); DropDownList ddlWsGrp = new DropDownList(); CompareValidator cvSame = new CompareValidator(); cvSame.ID = "cvSame" + i; cvSame.ErrorMessage = "Date cannot be the same"; cvSame.Operator = ValidationCompareOperator.NotEqual; cvSame.Type = ValidationDataType.Date; cvSame.Display = ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic; cvSame.EnableViewState = true; cvSame.ControlToValidate = (tbSch.ID);<<<<< what should be the value in here? cvSame.ControlToCompare = (tbSch.ID);<<<<<<<<<< and here? //schdule date lblSch.ID = "lblSch" + i; lblSch.Text = "Session Date : "; lblSch.EnableViewState = true; tbSch.ID = "tbSch" + i; tbSch.Width = 210; tbSch.Height = 27; tbSch.EnableViewState = true; //workshop grp lblWsGrp.ID = "lblwsgrp" + i; lblWsGrp.Text = "Workshop Group : "; lblWsGrp.EnableViewState = true; ddlWsGrp.ID = "ddlWsGrp" + i; ddlWsGrp.Height = 27; ddlWsGrp.Width = 210; ddlWsGrp.EnableViewState = true; ddlWsGrp.Items.Add("1"); ddlWsGrp.Items.Add("2"); //table to store data TableRow trow = new TableRow(); TableRow trow2 = new TableRow(); //row1 TableCell tc1 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc2 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc3 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc4 = new TableCell(); //row2 TableCell tc5 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc6 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc7 = new TableCell(); TableCell tc8 = new TableCell(); TableCelltc9 = new TableCell(); tc1.Controls.Add(lblSch); tc2.Controls.Add(tbSch); tc3.Controls.Add(lblWsGrp); tc4.Controls.Add(ddlWsGrp); tc5.Controls.Add(space); tc6.Controls.Add(CeSess); tc7.Controls.Add(space); tc8.Controls.Add(space); tc9.Controls.Add(cvSame) trow.Cells.Add(tc1); trow.Cells.Add(tc2); trow.Cells.Add(tc3); trow.Cells.Add(tc4); trow2.Cells.Add(tc5); trow2.Cells.Add(tc6); trow2.Cells.Add(tc7); trow2.Cells.Add(tc8); trow2.Cells.Add(t9); this.table3.Rows.Add(trow); this.table3.Rows.Add(trow2); } }
I have quite a problem with a form that contains an autocomplete function. The page is an aspx page with c# codebehind.
On the form there is an address field that the user can type in any string address. This field is using an Ajax autocomplete extender, which roadnames to the user. This works fine. Furthermore the user has the option to add multiple address fields when clicking a button. This works fine now with Jquery. Jquery copies the table which contains, besides other fields, the address field, and "paste" it underneath the existing adress field.
Problem is, how do I attach the Ajax autocomplete extender to the address fields that gets added? Or is there another workaround to make all these fields have this autocomplete function?
My datasource is an ado data table that I have convert to a new data table so that each row in the original table is now a column with 1 row in my new table. I then bind the new datatable and create dynamic template fields with a text box where I bind the values. My problem is, when I try and retrieve the values changed by the user in the rowcommand event, the template columns no longer exists.
Does anyone know how i can retrieve these values? I've read over and over that you have to rebind the grid on each postback when you use dynamic templates, but I'm not sure how to do that and retrieve the values entered in the text boxes on the client side.
while a new row is adding in gridview, the data is binding only new rows. the old rows are not coming.Data is coming from the profile properties.Add new row command event is listed below
bool isUserAccountCreated = false; UserProfile profilenew = new UserProfile();
I want to add a Dynamic column in Crystal report at run time. Because I dont know about the columns in design time. The columns will come based on the user selection.
So i want to Add a column to Crustal report at run time. I am using Crystal report. If it is not support to add column in Crystal report at runtime.
I'm working on a very dynamic site build at the moment. What I'm trying to do is creating something like a survey that can be created dynamically from a control panel. In the control panel you add input fields (these are saved in a database), what the user then see is a form that I generate from the database. So if I add 3 input fields to the database the survey will contain 3 fields. If I add 20 fields the survey will have 20 fields.
Now my problem is that I want to validate these fields, and I would like to be able to hook me in with the standard validation flow. I can't create a Model with validation rules since the number of fields and their names are dynamic the only thing I know is what kind of data that is expected in every field (this rule is found in the database). In an ordinary case I would get the automatic highlighted fields that are not valid and so on thanks to the built in validation flow with ValidationResult and so on.
So the question now is can I somehow simulate parts of the validation and then hook me back in with the validation result, and if not valid, the form prints the error messages and fill the fields with the data that was given?
In my Page_Load() event, I'm calling a Sub (in a module UserMenu.vb) that reads an XML file which has the user menu entries. The final menu should be an <ul> with several <li>, some of them with anidated <ul> within. As I understand, I may use a asp:Panel in my page to position a container for this elements I read and in this sub I try to add them using new BulletedList and new ListElement BList.Items.Add(LItem)), but when I get to Panel.Controls.Add(BList) it throws an error that says BList should be inserted in a Form. Why? Aren't they just <ul> and <li>? What other alternative I have to create <ul> and <li> in a specific part of my page?
Lets say I have a Web Application with a menu of products. When a user clicks a menu item, then create and display a dynamic set of controls in an Update Panel. I am currently doing this however the PostBack and recreation of controls is tedious and resource intensive.
Not sure about this but is it possible to build a webpage with controls on it, then display it in update panel or IFrame? Then on post back you wouldn't have to recreate everything all over again?
I am working on Crystal reports.My requirement is that i need to generate dynamic fields according to the count ofFamily_Members column in sql server database,for example if i have '4' in 'Family_Members' column i need to generate 4(Family members details)dynamically.
I have a VB.Net application which generates quite a few Crystal Reports. One report in particular has a Group Section. What I am trying to do with my VB.Net app is pass a value (a sql server column name used in the report). This value is represented by radio buttons. For example, the user may check either "ZipCode" or "State" or "Category" or "Type" or "Vendor". Each of these options represent a column in the database table used in the report. I simply want to be able to write the "SelectionFormula" using one of these options but not sure how to go about it.
