View 6 RepliesI'm new to MVC and trying to follow along to the 10-minute overview video at: [URL]. I'm running into a couple of problems starting at the 3:30 mark:
1. When I type in the following code as seen in the video, the DB class isn't found? Is there some namespace I'm meant to include or something?
[Code]....
2. At 3:53, I cannot select my model to create a strongly-typed view - the dropdown list is empty.
When I click on the Alphabets it will show the details of a player...however, when that particular letters has no details of the player..I want to show."No results can be found"..Is there anyway to do it?
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
ViewState["CurrentAlphabet"] = "ALL";
this.GenerateAlphabets();

I use to populate Dropdown using javascript:
function populateDDL(ddl_id) {
var option_str = "";
var x;
for(x in datalist){
option_str += " <asp:ListItem Value='" + datalist[x] + "' Text='" + datalist[x] + "'></asp:ListItem>"
}
var country_div = document.getElementById(ddl_id);
country_div.innerHTML = option_str;
}
This is sure the datalist is not empty and also Dropdown list populated perfectly..but dnt know why after clicking on my page add button I am not getting the selected value.
I am trying to set a focus on a dropdown within GridView(gridViewDropDown class) when page loads:
if ($('select.gridViewDropDown').length)
{
alert("Found my dropdown");
//$('select.gridViewDropDown:first').focus();
setTimeout(function() { $('select.gridViewDropDown').focus(); }, 10);
}
I can see the alert which means that dropdown is found but it never gets a focus. What do I need to change here? I am using IE 6/7.
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.
View 12 RepliesI am maintaining a website that has .Aspx web pages with no code behind C# files. This has been a challenge for me, because I need to do the following:
1.) When the page first loads, display a Java Script popup message box.
So how can I do this if I don not have a code behind C# file where I can check for isPostback in the on page load method? Can the on page load method be placed inline in the .aspx code? Anyway I need to figure out how to answer my question 1 above.
How can i generate dropdown lists based on what has been selected in the checckbox list.

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.
The example is given below( I am reading the book Sams Teach yourself ASP.NET 2.0 by Scott Mitchell. page 628)

I'm having trouble figuring out how to display a gridview based on the selection of a drop down list. I manually entered the drop down list items, but in the configure/choose data source I don't understand how you make a relationship between each list item and the corresponding database table you want to show.
View 7 RepliesI've a dropdown list for departments (engineering, bio, chemistry,physics etc.) when somebody choose the departments from the dropdown list, it displays the opening closing time(hours) in a detailsview controls.
I have separate homepage for these departments ( these are the static html pages and no way to send querystring value) and I want to link the hours for each department from the departmental homepage.
When I choose the department from the DDL, everytime it's the same URL.
How can I solve the problem So that I can point the respective hours from the respective departments ?
I have a table that has 3 fields (Individual-Id, LastName, and FirstName). I want to create a drop down table that displays both the FirstName and the LastName (example: Smith, John). The field Individual-Id is the 'value' field.
View 4 RepliesI have a form that needs to display 3 dropdown lists, one for my client type, then, based on the selection, my second list shows the clients for that type, and then based on the client name, my third dropdown box shows the contacts for that client. The first dropdown list one being a normal html.dropdownlist, and the other 2 being CascadingDropdownLists.
I have followed Stephen Walther's method 1 located at [URL]. If I select my client type, then my client names in my second dropdown shows perfectly, but when I choose my client name, the third dropdown does not work. When I view my page source, all my contacts are listed in my <select> control, but my dropdown box stays blank. Did anyone ever get a third dropdown to work?
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.

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 have some labels on my Page (e.g. Label1...Label100).
I don't want to loop through all Labels to check if Text property is = "" (or string.Empty, whatever), so this's my question - is it possible to use LINQ or Lambda Expression to get all "empty" labels ?
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).
