Web Forms :: Menu Rendering Mode List?
Mar 1, 2011
I've migrated a test site to asp.net 4.0 to take advantage of the list renderingmode for a menu. Having the UL and LI should be easier than the table rendering.I'm making progress, (still have work to do, just ignore the odd border) however one issue continues to plague the testing. IN IE 6,7,8, as the page is rendering, it appears the menu is flickering and trying to render as a vertical menu instead of the correct
orientation which is horizontal. In Moz, Chrome, Sarafi, Opera, I don't get this behavior.
The menu is styled with CSS however I'm not opposed to adding some corrective code directly to the masterpage that holds the menu. I'd apprecate a suggestion as to how to solve this because as it is, it is not usable.Here is the link to the test site.

I hate tables - don't want to use tables, unless I have tabular data to display. A menu is not tabular data (as far as I am concerned.) I was elated to see that in asp.net 4 - the menu control renders as a <ul> <li>, instead of as a table. However - try as I might, I can not get a horizontally orientated Menu to split into even columns, and text align center. FYI - I don't use fixed width - so I can't just set a width to 1000 - and separate it into even columns. Besides that, I want it to change width dynamically, based on the number of "columns (menuItems)" there are. Is it possible to spread out the <li> menu items evenly across the space I provide for them in their containing div or will I have to quite using menu controls, and start using JQuery Menu's?

I am currently developing a site in the .Net Framework 3.5. The site works correctly except when the user selects the Compatabilty view. I am unsure of how to make the page render properly in compatabilty mode. I have problems with the repeater displaying data correctly from the sql Server. I also have a dynamic menu that is called from the server this too also renders incorrectly in compatability mode. I am a new asp.net developer and I havent come across this type of problem before. Basically I want the site to be correctly viewable in IE 7 and 6.

I am testing my website in numerous browers and have discovered (amazingly) that the asp:menu
control does not render properly in both the above browsers! Given that these browsers must account for
a large part of internet traffic it is curious that microsoft have not fixed this. I have looked at CSS Friendly but
if looks like a lot of work and change for my websites just for the one control that does not work.

I've encountered was appears to be a strange bug with the menu control, and alas, I am unable to find much useful information on it (which leads me to believe I have something installed or confingured incorrectly). Here the problem:
When declaring a menu control with a staticHoverStyle, for example:
<asp:Menu
ID="navMenu"
DataSourceID="srcSiteMap" [code]....
Has no effect on the behavior of the control once it's rendered, neither in Firefox nor IE.In fact, using the source code at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366731.aspx with no modifications also results in the hoverstyle not working.
This problem seems to be "fixed" if you specify the css attribute declaratively, for example, StaticMenuItemStyle-BackColor="Yellow".
Alternatively, if you specify RenderingMode="table" then the hoverstyle seems to work. It's only when you're using a cssclass with a list that things seem to mess up.
Finally, I notice that in the rendered html, the control embeds some styles between /* <![CDATA[ */ and /* ]]> */ comments that affects the final appearance of the menu control, sometimes overwriting a cssclass you specified (ex: the margin for dynamic menus can only be controlled with the HorizontalOffset property, and not by css). This is undesirable, but I don't see anything that seems to overwrite the behavior of hover elements. Actually, the .hoveritem class doesn't appear anywhere in the markup at all, but when you specify the StaticMenuItemStyle-BackColor property, then the value is rendered correctly in this block of styles.

I seem to be experiencing a problem with the modal popup on a page. I'm forcing IE 8 to render with the IE 5 engine using: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=5" /> as a quick fix while true IE 8 compatibility is being worked on.
Problem is the modal popup doesn't really work. It just displays at the bottom of the page, and when I scroll up/down, the page gets wider and wider..

The method GetDesignTimeHtml of the ControlDesigner class should return html markup that will be shown on the page in design time. My problem is that control looks different in different versions of the visual studio. What is the rendering engine visual studio use to render control in design mode?

I have a simple HttpHandler that generates a dynamic image based on query string parameters and a custom web control that renders an image tag pointing to the handler as its 'src' attribute. All works fine when run in the web server, but at design timethe control displays as the "missing image" icon (red x in a box). The handler is registered in the web.config with a ".ashx" extension. The RenderContents method in the control looks like this:
output.AddAttribute("src", ResolveUrl(string.Format("~/Sparklines.SparkHandler.ashx?stype=pm&w={0}&h={1}&sv={2}&ev={3}&cv={4}&sc={5}&ec={6}&mc={7}&gs={8}",

I am trying to run a report in local mode and bind it at runtime to a simple List<string>; I have searched for a sample with no success so far, so could anyone give some hints? I know that a ReportDataSource can be a type that implements IEnumerable but I cannot figure out what field name should be used in the rdlc file? Suppose I bind the datasource at runtme (something like ReportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources(Add new ReportDataSource("dsname", new List<string> { "John Smith", "Jane Smith" }))
can I still define my report definition file at design time, and bind a text box control to something like Fields[0] or the like? And on a different note, I also defined a static method without parameters that returns a generic list of some type; Yet if a go to Report - Data Sources menu option, I cannot see the method in the list of Project Data Sources.

I am using an ASP.NET 4.0 Menu control with RenderingMode=List and am struggling with creating the appropriate CSS. Each menu item is represented by an <li> tag that contains a nested <a> tag with what appear to be fixed class names:
<a class="level1"> for unselected level 1 menu items
<a class="level2"> for unselected level 2 menu items
<a class="level1 selected"> for the selected level 1 menu item
What I want to do is to is to prevent the currently selected menu item from being "clickable". To do so I tried using:
if (menuItem.Selected) menuItem.Selectable = false;
This has the desired effect of removing the href attribute from the <a> tag but also removes the class attribute - and as a result my CSS can not identify what level the menu item belongs to! Looks to me like a possible bug, but in any case I can't find any documentation describing what CSS class names are used, nor whether there is any way to control this (the old Style properties don't appear to have any effect). Ideally I would like to have "level" class attributes on the <li> tags, not just the nested <a> tags.
UPDATE
I've taken a look at the System.Web source with Reflector, and it appears that it does explicitly skip outputting CSS attributes if Selectable=false. The following is extracted from MenuRendererStandards.RenderItemLinkAttributes:
if (!item.Selectable)
{
return needsAccessKey; // !! exits without setting class attribute
}
if (item.Selected)
{
cssClass = cssClass + " selected";
}
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Class, cssClass);
