View 4 RepliesI have checkboxes in one column of listview and outside the listview I have one dropdown and one button.
when I dont check any checkboxes in listview fire a validation "Select any one checkbox" on button click.
simirarly when I check Checkboxes in listview and I'm leaving to select dropdown fire a validation"Select any item in the dropdownlist" on button click.
how to validate both controls(checkboxes in listview and dropdown) when those are not selecting.
n my aspx page i am having a checkbox list ..It has binded values from a table..
I need to validate the checkbox list ..I tried the following script
var checkBoxCount = 0;
var elements = document.getElementById('<%=ChkBoxList.ClientID%>');
for(i=0; i<elements.length;i++)
{
if(elements[i].checked)
[code]....
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)

How to validate DropDownCheckBoxes control at client side(javascript or Jquery)? I would like to restrict the user to submit the page if no item is selected in the dropdowncheckboxes control. i.e no check box is checked.Javascript/Jquery code to validate the control at client side.
View 1 RepliesI am using asp.net 3.5. I filled dropdown list in javascript using ajax service but unable to get its selected value in button click event on server side.
View 3 RepliesI am using a asp.net Drop down list control which is disabled using javascipt, when I am trying to retrieving the value server side the default value is being set on postback.
It is a Web Project and Iam using VS2008.
I've 2 dropdownlists, both are binded to a cascadingdropdown. Whenever I select an option in the 1st dropdownlist (parent), the options in the 2nd dropdownlist (child) will repopulate based on the options I selected in the parent dropdownlist. I need a javascript function to reset the options of both dropdownlists in their initial state (the prompt text).
I've tried changing the selectedIndex of the parent dropdownlist. However, this only changes the selected option in the parent dropdownlist. It does not reset the child dropdownlist to its initial state (which is supposed to be disabled and without any options). Need the script to reset the chained dropdownlists?
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 have a dropdown list with a piece of code that is run when the value is changed:
<select name="SList" onchange="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack('SList','')', 0)" id="SList">
Everything works fine when manually done. As an option is selected, the onchange code is called.
The problem begins when I try to change the selected value using a piece of Javscript. I want to be able to automatically change the selected option using JS, whilst still having the onchange code called, exactly as if done manually.
I try calling this:
form.SList.value = "33";
The right option is selected, but the onchange code does not get called. So then I try doing this:
form.SList.value = "33";
javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack('SList','')', 0);
The right value is not selected and nothing happens.
FYI, the code is done in ASP.NET and Javascript.
What can I run to change the selected option whilst still calling the onchange code?
Eg:-- When I type "A" all the elements starting with A should be displayed... If "B" then elements with B....etc)
Ex:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlLocation" style="width:140px" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem Value="1" >India</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="2" >India - Hyderabad</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="3">South Africa</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="4">Australia</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
javascript :
function DisplayText()
{
var textboxId = '<% = txtText.ClientID %>';
var dropdownListId = '<% = ddlLocation.ClientID %>';
document.getElementById(textboxId).value = document.getElementById(dropdownListId).value;
document.getElementById(textboxId).focus();
}
code behind :
ddlLocation.Attributes.Add("onChange", "DisplayText();");
I have 2 drop down lists.I have a very simple dropdown list #1 that diplays a title and holds an id value which is a GUID.I know it is getting this value and sending this value as I tested sending it to a label.I have the dropdown list #1 to autopostback to dropdown list #2 that "Is supposed to get" another title and value based on the GUID value of the first dropdown list. for some reason it wont return anything. I have done 100's of these but never based off a guid value.I assume the value needs to be converted to guid before selecting it in the second dropdown list.How can I do this? or is there something I am missing?
View 9 RepliesDoes 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 4 RepliesClicking the label of a drop down list, re-sets the selected value to the first item in the list. This has a history of causing data entry problems when users accidently click on the label.
In the below example ddlContactType has a selected value as 'PRIMARY' and whenever i click on the lblContactType Text, the dropdown box Selected value is changing to "Select One" Text.
How to prevent this one. It should be on PRIMARY Only.

<tr> <td ><asp:Label ID="lblContactType" Font-Bold="true" Text="Contract Type: *" ForeColor= "red" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="ddlContactType"></asp:Label> </td> <td > <asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlContactType" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" AppendDataBoundItems="true"
DataTextField="TYPE" DataValueField="ID" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("CONTACT_TYPE_ID") %>'>
<asp:ListItem Text="Select One" Value="0" Selected="True"></asp:ListItem>.......
I have a databound dropdownlist and have a problem with the default value it selects.When I attempt to edit a record the dropdownlist shows the first value in the list rather than the current value. I want the dropdown list to display the current value.
I'm sure this is very simple but I'm very new to ASP.NET.
I'm using .NET version 4.
