View 1 Repliesi have a web page and inside the page has a placeholder that contains 2 user controls and both visible set to false.
When i click on button1 on the page, it will set the visible of usercontrol1 to true. May i know how do i do it so that when i click on button2 that IS INSIDE usercontrol1, it will hide usercontrol1 from placeholder and set usercontrol2 visible =true?
I have a Web Form that uses Master Pages. I only tell you this part so you understand the layers.
On the page, I have a web user control. I can see public methods on that user control by simply calling userControlName.PublicMethod();
However, there is a button on this page which generates additional content. This content is based on a placeholder control and adding additional web user controls :
[Code]....
Now, on the main form, I want a submit button that will call a public method of each "subForm" that was added at runtime.
I have tried various forms of Control C = This.Page.Master.FindControl("cpBody").Findcontrol("ctl01")... etc, but can never seen to get the right combination.
Below is a listing of the web form
[Code]....
Does anyone know how I would go about calling a method found in the master page code behind from a user control's code? The user control is on the master page. The method I want to call is public.
I can easily call a method found in the pages code behind using:
Page.GetType().InvokeMember("TheMethodsName", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, this.Page, null);
or I can call a method found on the master page from my aspx page code behind using:
((MasterPage_MasterPage)Page.Master).TheMethodsName();
But I am stuck because I can't find the MasterPage in my user control code behind.
I have a page that contains a few user controls which all use an id in a querystring. I want to change this so that the page can send the id to the user control and can call a function on the user control.
Also is it possible for the user control to get the id from the page or a control on the page as its parent?
I have an aspx page which has an usercontrol say UC1 for selecting query paramters.
UserControl uc1 in turn opens another user control (UC2) as a modal popup.
1. On OK click, I am setting the values of another usercontrol (uc1) from the control uc2 by invoking a page method(doAccept). It appears to call the method and values seems to be set. But the problem the usercontrol/page does not display the new value or in otherwords it is not refreshed.
If the above is not possible is there any other way to refresh the parent page.

I have a page called main.apsx and on that page I have a multiview with a couple of view panes. In main.aspx I also have an have a buttons.ascx file with a few link buttons. When these buttons are clicked I want them to show the the selected view panels in multiview in main.aspx.
I cant seem to figure out where to put the action code for the link buttons. Do I put it into my buttons.ascx.cs file or into main.aspx.cs? I presume in buttons.ascx.cs, but if I do that, how will the buttons find the multiview control?
This is the code for on of my buttons in buttons.ascx.cs

When I run it like this is gives an error
The name 'MultiView1' does not exist in the current
The name 'View1' does not exist in the current
i created a user control and place a button on it.i drag dropped the user control on a aspx page and wrote the grid load and button clicks in the
user control.now i got a requirement to use the same user control grid and button to again use on the same page.however the data populated will be different and the button click functionality will be different.how can i reload the different data on the second grid as i had already wrote the code in the first one
I've got a DataGrid in an Update Panel, which is in a Web User Control that I've made.
I need to call Update() on the Update Panel from outside the User Control.
I have a user control which opens a new window for some item selection. Once an item is selected on that window, the item ID should be passed to a callback javascript function in the user control. In order to have a unique callback function name in the user control (it may have multiple instances on the same page), I added the user control ID to the function name as follows (defined in the ascx file):
function OnItemSelection_<%=this.ID%>(selectedItemID)
{
OnItemSelection("<%=SomeControl.ClientID%>", selectedItemID)
}
Where OnItemSelection is defined in an external js file:
function OnItemSelection(controlID, selectedItemID)
{
$(controlID).do_something(selectedItemID);
}
The issue is that now I'm not sure how the new page can call the "right" function (of the user control instance where it was opened from). The only idea I have in mind so far is passing the name of the callback function in the query string:
var CallbackFunction = function(selectedItemID)
{
window.opener.<%=Request.QueryString["CallbackFunctionName"]%>(selectedItemID);
}
or maybe just the opening user control ID:
var CallbackFunction = function(selectedItemID)
{
window.opener.OnItemSelection_<%=Request.QueryString["UserControlID"]%>(selectedItemID);
}
My questions are:
1) Is it a bad practice passing javascript function names (or user control IDs) like that (I suspect it is)?
2) What could be better way to handle this scenario? Edit: Another way I'm considering now is declaring a global variable in the user control (registering it from the code behind so it'll appear only once). Then, when opening the new window, it's possible to assign the relevant function to it (OnItemSelection_<%=this.ID%>), and call it from the new window. Seems much cleaner than passing user control data through the query string.
i'm trying to learn about user controls. I created a user control that has a textbox and a button. What i'd like to be able to do is when i click the button in the user control, populate a label in the aspx page. I understand that i could just have a button on the page that uses some properties on the user control to get that information.. but i'd like to know how to do it with the button the user control.. the reason for this is the button is just an example.. a learning tool. if i can get this working, i'd likely be putting thing in the user control that might require this kind of passing information. Anyway.. i've found some c# examples that i tried to get working as vb.. but once started getting into the delegates and events.. well.. it made me turn to this post.
View 3 RepliesI am using a user control that I created (just a .cs file not an .ascx file), that does some magic and depending on a value generated by the control, I need it to do something on the parent page that is 'hosting' the control. It needs to call a method under certain circumstances (method is on the parent control).the control is placed on the parent page like so:
<customtag:MyControl ID="something" runat="server" />
I'm dynamically creating buttons etc on the control itself but when a button is clicked, let's say for example that there's a text box on the control and if the value of the textbox is "bob" it needs to call a method on the page that's housing the control...how can I accomplish this?
I looked up the threads about this. But I couldn't do it...
this is my method in aspx.page:
public void MesajlariGetir()
{
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("msjlarigetir", con);

I want to know how can we create web user control dynamically.
Scenario: Basically i am developing registration user control. I have a web page(say, SelectInputs.aspx) that lists different types of fields along with checkbox attached to each of them for selection. Once i select desired input controls (which should appear in user control) and click submit button then the file (.ascx) should be created from code behind.
eg: Lets say on SelectInputs.aspx i select fields viz. Firstname(textbox), Lastname(textbox), DateOfBirth(3 dropdowns) etc and click on submit button then from code behind the .ascx file should be generated that will include Firstname(textbox), Lastname(textbox), DateOfBirth(3 dropdowns) etc.
i have a BaseMasterUserControl.ascx and i have create a another ChildUserControl1.ascx
and ChildUserControl2.ascx, both are inherit from a BaseMasterUserControl.ascx.
i have hosted the BaseMasterUserControl.ascx in an aspx page. At runtime i am deciding
which usercontrol should be load. so i am loading a specific usercontrol dynamically and
assigning it to baseusecontrol but content are not visual, is this possible?

how to load user control dynamically on asp.net page? I am loading user control in my page_Init() event under if(!IsPostBack) but when user post the with any button click then my user control is disapper?
If i am loading control without if(!IsPostBAck) then its fine, but each time a page is posted loading of control is not good because it will slow my web site?
I have created a user control that contains two asp calendar controls. I need to add this user control twice on the same asp page, let's say for Check in date and Check out date. Since the two are conflicting to each other when I add it twice statically, I now dynamically add them on button click so that each time only one control is loaded. The problem is, when I select a date on a calendar, it seems that the selection event is not happening at all. Of course, I am not getting any date.
View 4 RepliesI have a usercontrol that uses a callback to update itself. If I add the control to the aspx page everything works fine. However, when i add the control using Page.LoadControl and Control.Add on a Placeholder i get the following error: "The target 'ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$ctl00' for the callback could not be found or did not implement ICallbackEventHandler". I tryed assigning the ID of the control also which failed with the same error. I am using asp.net 2.0.
View 11 RepliesI have a dynamically created address user control (on a customer administration screen) that is created through the use of a place holder. A customer can have multiple addresses, so they dynamically dropped onto the page.
I have got this far, but now I need to be able to save the updated addresses for the customer but I can't get any event to fire on the user controls. When I check to see run plhAddress.HasControls() it returns false?
The way I am generating the user controls is as follows.. private UserControl LoadControl(string UserControlPath, params object[] constructorParameters)

how to improve the performance of dynamically load user control
View 1 RepliesI have a aspx page, default.aspx, with an user control in it. Inside the user control (UC 1) there is a DataGrid. When the DataGrid is loading data with ItemDataBound, I need to dynamically load another user control (UC 2) for each row in the DataGrid. UC 2 has a Button ( BTN )with an eventhandler associated with it in code behind.
User control loading is fine, and the Button, BTN, is there. However, when I click the Button, the eventhandler is not reached, not firing, even though the page does postback. I googled for this issues, and I know the dynamically loaded user controls need to be loaded every time the page is postback. In my case, it needs to be loaded each time the datagrid is doing ItemDataBound. I did it and even hook up the eventhandler with button click event each time when the user control is dynamically loaded. I set EnableViewState to true on the Page and controls.
The following is part of the code from UC 1, AcctPaymentDetail is UC 2 in the code.
