Web Forms :: Use A Cascading Dropdownlist Inside A Formview
Jun 5, 2010
let me know if some body tried to use a cascading dropdownlist inside a formview to be used in update and insert templates.known that my tables are like this:
Section:
SecID SecTitle
Category: [code]...
I need to create a formview to insert and update all my news but I need a cascading Dropdownlist to select a section and generate the related categories Note that I need to display the Sectoin and the Category Titles
When the FormView is in Edit mode, ddlCategory is populated as expected by calling GetCategories(), which returns a List of categories. However, when the ListView is in Insert mode, ddlCountry is empty. I put a break point in GetCountries(), but it never gets called. If I change the name of the method, I get an error. So it recognizes the method at compile time, but does not call it at run time. I'm guessing this is an embedded binding issue of some kind, but I'm hoping someone can save me a lot of time by pointing out the solution.
Hello all i have this little issue getting this to work, i have a dropdownlist in asp.net inside a formview and jquery cant find the control im guessing because its inside a form, this is what i got and it works on another page without a formviewi get this errorName 'Country' is not declared
I am using jQuery to do a cascading dropdown list (State, City). In order to pull the information from the database I have a web service that I reference. The code all works like a champ when I use the JavaScript on the ASPX page for proof of concept, but when I place the JavaScript in the userControl and then put the userControl on the ASPX page, it breaks.
The next foreseeable thing that will potentially complicate things further is that the userControl will be inside of an updatePanel
I have two dropdownlists inside a repeater. And based on the value I pick in the first dropdownlist the second needs to get populated (both need to be populated from the DB via stored proc). I am adding the code I have so far but it's not complete
I have a dropdownlist inside a formview and I'm trying to do something on the selectedindexchanged event. but I'm getting the following error:
It looks like it can't find the dropdownlist because it is inside the formview. How can I find the event?- if there is such a thing.

In my listview object insert/edit template, I have two dropdownlists (category, subcategory). When a user selects a category (autopostback), I would like the subcategory dropdown to filter to only the those that match the categoryID from the category ddl. This seems to be complicated by the fact that it is in a listview object. I'm currently using a queryextender on the subcategory datasource, but I'm not sure how to apply the selectedvalue of the category to the queryextender. The subcategory just shows all items and is not filtered. How do you accomplish this?
I am having two dropdownlist in my project,one dropdownlist for empid, another dropdownlist for month, if the user select the empid, the values are retrieved in the textbox.
In the second dropdownlist, if the user select the month in the dropdownlist it will display the leave details, its all working fine, if the user again select the first dropdownlist that means empid, I want to show the second dropdownlist as select month, how can do this.....
I am making an application that deals with vehicles. I need two DropDownLists:
Makes: All Vehicle Makes Models: Models that belong to the selected value of the Make DropDownList
How is this done in MVC2? My Idea: Do I use an ajax call when my first list is selected and then pull back the Models to bind to the Model DDL? How would model binding come into play that way? UPDATE I posted what I ended up doing as an answer. It is super simple and works great. You can use a get too if you feel so inclined, but you have to specify that you want to like so... return Json(citiesList, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
i have a table with three columns as ID,baseid,name.
[code]...
i will display all baseid 0 values in first dropdownlist1
based on the selection corresponding values will be shown in dropdownlist2 (like when desc1 is selected desc1212 &desc2323 will be shown in dropdownlist2. now i want to edit/add details to the table from aspx page.
I have two comboboxes say DDL 1 : Artist , DDL 2: Albums and a Gridview containing ( album name, artist name, no.of tracks, year, etc), What I want to achieve is: when an option(artist1) in DDL1 is chosed, then the albums related to DDL1 needs to display in DDL 2 and also it must update the appropriate values in the gridview( artistname, albums(album name -no of songs, year)etc...(language: Asp.net(VB)-Sql server ).
I looked at your article regarding cascading dropdownlists and was really useful but in my case I want to use two drop down lists and a grid view.
I have 3 cascading dropdownlists. Everything works OK EXCEPT whenever I change the selection in the dropdownlist, the old values from the previous selection are added to the new values (specifically DropDownList id=InstructorList and CourseNumberList)
ASPX page, <asp:AccessDataSource id="CourseNameSource" Runat="Server" DataFile="r:angel_file_storageCourses.mdb" SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT CourseField FROM (SELECT Mid(CourseField, 1, 4) AS CourseField FROM Course_Load) ORDER BY CourseField"/>
I have 2 dropdownlists and on change 1st dropdownlist (ddlPlant), the 2nd dropdownlist (ddlCategoryName) refreshes its data based on 1st dropdownlist value. However, the codes does not worked.
I have created two dropdown lists. The 2nd DDL depends for values on the 1st DDL. I have written code on the SelectedIndexChanged event of 1st DDL to change values of 2nd DDL. also i have used detailsview. In the template field i have used 2 DDL mentioned above. they are having SelectedValue='<%# Bind("") %>' property. Everything works fine but when i tried to edit record in detailsview & select value from 1st DDL then it gives me following error.
Server Error in '/' Application. Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.
I have an ASP.NET/C# web project that uses an Entity Data Model and Entity Framework to interact with my database. I also have a DetailsView control that will serve as the control used to insert a new record. The user will need to be able to select from multiple, cascading dropdownlist controls to determine what parent record this new record will belong to. Here is an example.Say we have an online ordering system with the following hierarchy.
Customers -> Orders -> OrderParts -> Parts
We're going to add a new part to an order, under a customer. Ultimately the orderparts table won't have a reference to a customer, just an order. The order will have the reference to the customer. In the DetailsView for the new orderparts record we will need two cascading dropdownlist controls. One for customer and one for order, since we won't want to view some crazy amount of orders all in one dropdownlist.
However, the customer dropdownlist should not be bound to the detailsview control since there is no field for it. I also don't want to use the AJAX control since I don't want to create a separate web service to provide all of this information to the dropdownlist controls.
I have an UpdatePanel with a GridView. This GridView has a template column that is a DropDownList. The problem is that the SelectedIndexChanged event does not fire for the DropDownList. Here is the code:
I have a listview that is showing its result by using a linq query. The linq query goes like this.
[Code]....
* db.Varer: Varer is a table that contains basic product information like proudct name, product nr. etc. ** a.fk_kategori_id == CatParamId : I'm just saying limit the result according to the Category ID (a.fk_kategori_id). The category id is coming from a dropdownlist (CatParamID) *** Join: Besides the Varer (Product) table I also have another table, Sizes. This Sizes table contains 6 columns (ID_Sizes (int) primary key and the columns: OneSize, S, M, L, XL, XXL all are bit (true or false)). There is a relationship between Varer table and Sizes table. It says that I can only insert a value into the "fk_sizes_id - column" of varer table if that value already exists as primary key within the Sizes table. **** I'm starting by picking basic product values like productId, ProductName etc from the Varer (a) table ***** Then I'm picking the corresponding Sizes values (onesize, s, m, ...) from the Sizes table. Now within my ListView I'm showing the above result by using Eval, like this.
[Code]....
And this works perfectly, but now comes the thing that is causing me trouble. I have the below drop down list (still within the ListView ItemTemplate):
[Code]....
I want this drop down list to be populated with only those of the "linq query's Sizes table result" that are true. By "Sizes table result" I mean these
I have a .aspx page having two dropdowns, the data to be loaded in them is usually static(but may change everyday), the first dropdown always displays the main categories and the second dropdown is initially empty.
Now, the requirement is:
As the user selects a category from the first dropdownlist, the second dropdownlist should populate based on the selection just made.
The road-block:
This should be done without a postback. My boss wants something like the drop downs on this page.
So what I gather is, I'd have to retrieve the data from the database on page load event, store it in the cache(or somewhere else?), then use javascript to handle the selectedindexchanged event of the 1st dropdown, use the data from database stored at pageload and populate the second dropdown according to the selected value of first dropdown.
P.S.- I'm a beginner ASP.Net C# programmer and have no knowledge of Javascript.
