Web Forms :: Getting Error - While Creating Wizard Steps Dynamically In Page_PreInit / How To Fix It
Jun 1, 2010
I am creating dynamic wizard steps in the Page_PreInit method , if i go ahead and refresh the form i get an error as follows :
Error : ActiveViewIndex is being set to '3'. It must be smaller than the current number of View controls '1'. For dynamically added views, make sure they are added before or in Page_PreInit event. Parameter name: value
this is my code to add the wizard control which exists in my Page_PreInit() method
I am trying to add wizard steps dynamically in code-behind but keep getting an exception
"ActiveViewIndex is being set to '0'. It must be smaller than the current number of View controls '0'. For dynamically added views, make sure they are added before or in Page_PreInit event."
I found I have some fundamental error in my building, since I got this error after trying to build the simplest wizard in a new web-site just opened...
I like to use a wizardcontrol on my site. I like to use a radiobuttonlist on each step.
I would like that once an item of a radiobuttonlist is selected, a check mark becomes visable next to the active step title on the sidebar.
For this I have changed the sidebar to a templated sidebar, added a picture of a checkmark next to the sidebarbutton, and put it's visebility to false.
now I have to write some code to set the visebilety of the specific checkmark to true.
I have tryed this:
[Code]....
But then the control is not found. I guess becouse findcontrol is only looking in the active wizard step, and not in the sidebar.
In one of the steps of a wizard control are 2 dropdownlist which data come from 2 distinct queries and cascade from the 1st one to the 2nd one. Where and how can code for that data binding and cascading be placed since it seems codebehind window for both of the dropdownlists cannot be found in VS property or event windows?
I have an asp:wizard control that contains five WizardSteps. All of these steps have form controls, and most of these controls have validators. When the user steps through the wizard with the next and previous buttons everything is working great, and validation triggers as it should. However, if the user chooses to navigate the wizard using the links in the SideBar, he or she could skip some of the steps. When the last page is submitted (which is a summary page) there might be controls in the wizard that are invalid.
What I want to do is to check the state of all controls (or run all validators) when the user clicks the finish button, or when the user enters the summary page. I have made an attempt to run all the validators in the FinishButtonClick event by doing this:
[code]....
But when I do this every validator claims that they are valid. I have also tried to set all controls to Visible = true; prior to this code block, but this has no effect. what could be wrong? Or is it a better way of doing this, maybe a native function to the wizard control that I'm missing?
I have a CreateUserWizard with three Wizard steps and one CreateUserWizardStep. The first two are accessible from the code behind by ID. The third and fourth are not! If I comment out the references to these two steps in the code behind the page runs fine. I have triple checked the variable names and everything is fine. Everything that should have a runat="server" does, everything is enabled, all of that good stuff.
why some steps in the same CreateUserWizard may not be visible from the code behind and others are?
I am using CreateUserWizard control.. Is there anyway, I can put all the steps in the wizard process into one page. I do not like the idea of sifting through multiple pages to create a user. I would like one page where user goes through different sections (panels/divs) and creates a user ultimately all from one page.
when i add a dataset & using wizard trying to set the database using sql authentication.i get error login failed for user sa but if i use windows authentication i get connected.i checked the sql server it has mixed authentication but still i am not able to create the xsd & suppose i copy the the dataset mad eon other system to this system i am bale to aceess the data in the application but not able to configure or preview data.how do i rectify .
I am in the process of evaluting ASP.NET Wizard Control. Where we need to collect data from different steps, Validate data and towords the end i should be able to show summary of data.
I would like to know from group if any one of used this control and what issues they faced. Are there any limitation around this control?
In my web application, I have to load different Master pages depending on the user log-in information. When I say different, I mean not just the colors but a whole new look[including navigation options]. So I am using 2 Master pages [one of them is set as default] and depending on the user information the other page will be used.
I got it to work by storing the user information in a Session variable and applying the master page dynamically using the Page_PreInit event. But the issue is, if I hit the back button, sometimes [yeah, only sometimes !!!] the master page is reset to the default page. Initially I thought it is a Session timeout issue. But it isn't, as some of the session variables still have data. Can anyone explain whats actually happening?
I'm looking for some opinions on how to go about the following:
Say I have a wizard control in my website, and I've completed all the steps on the wizard and I want to redirect to another page after the "Finish" button I've clicked. So, then after that I logout of my site, and go back into it bearing in mind the wizard has been completed, I want to redirect the user to another page and by-pass this wizard control. Would I setup a flag in the database, to indicate if the wizard control has been completely filled or not. If status = true then redirect the user to different page (and bypass wizard)... but if status = null then make sure user still can go through steps in the wizard control.
[Code]....
set a flag to state whether all of the wizard has been filled in or not / otherwise go back and complete the wizard?
I have a need to create a custom wizard, without using the wizard control. What I am attempting to create is something similar to this post:
[URL]
The only problem is that I need to attach CSS to the previous steps that is different from the next step, and different from the current step. So I created a <UL> for the menu, but how to dynamically attach css to the different <ul> elements and assign 3 classes: previous, current & next based on the step the user is on?
I have created the page after watching this video [URL] , but my problem is at the end after sending the email I get a blank screen. So, after I click the Finish button and how do I put in a message like "Thank you for submitting you question" ?

I used the wizard and went through the steps to set it up and clicked DONE and closed the ASP.NET configuration window/wizard and the database was not created. What might be wrong here?
Im very new to ASP.net and have no experience with it at all.Im currently developing a website,and am confused about creating users.Im using the create user wizard,everything is working fine.However,I am worried about the security of user information.I believe the user information is stored in the APP_Data folder, am I right in believing that this folder is secure?
Exactly how is the user information stored when using the create a user wizard?In a database in the APP_Data folder?Is it encrypted automatically when a user signs up?
I have created the tables and the stored procedures in SQL 2008.
In VS 2008, I created DataSet1.xsd in App_Code and created the connectionString in web.config file.
Then when I go into the DataSet1.xsd and try to add a TableAdapter, strange things happened.
First I chose the data connection, then selected "Use existing stored procedure", then there was nothing listed in the dropdownlists (in Select, Insert, Update, or Delete).
I'm sure the connectionString is correct because if I choose "Use SQL statement" and type in a "select * from mytable1", the TableAdapter can be created without any problem.
The step show at the left bar with the Title, but the HTML (fieldset and the paragraph) is not displayed in the step. It requires to be a TemplatedWizardStep too because we use Template for the layout. How do I add a Step dynamically?
I have a <asp:Wizard> control with 6 or so steps. In the first 3 steps, I want to hide the default Wizard navigation (Next button, etc.), as each WizardStep's contents will handle that. For the last 3 or so steps, if possible, I want to use the built-in navigation. I've modified the <StepNavigationTemplate> contents, but that alone doesn't cut it, because it affects all steps. Here are my options:
Find a way to dynamically show or hide the StepNavigation from the codebehind. (I feel like this might be best -- is it possible?) Use StepType with <StartNavigationTemplate>, <StepNavigationTemplate>, and <FinishNavigationTemplate> to switch between navigation options (marking multiple steps as "start" or "finish" feels like it's abusing the mechanism) Switch to a <asp:MultiView> and handle navigation manually (I'd rather not do this)
i am creating check box's dynamically and assigning them names like "chk_1" and "chk_2".now if later in my code i want to check if they have been checked how can i do that.if i do something like if chk_1.checked is True then i am getting error that chk_1 is not declared.
i am using VB.net 2.0 i can post my code if needed.
