How do I access a specific control within a FormView's "<InsertItemTemplate>"?
View 2 RepliesI have a checkbox and a panel inside of a FormView control, and I need to access them from the code behind in order to use the checkbox to determine whether or not the panel is visible. This is the code that I originally used, but since I put the controls inside of the FormView, it no longer works.
Protected Sub checkGenEd_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
If checkGenEd.Checked = True Then
panelOutcome.Visible = True
Else
panelOutcome.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
I've started to figure this out based on other questions I looked up on here, but all of them were in C# instead of VB, so this is as far as I got:
Protected Sub FormView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.DataBound
If FormView1.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit Then
End If
End Sub
So yeah I'm not sure exactly how to finish it. here's my code now:
Protected Sub FormView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.DataBound
If FormView1.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit Then
CheckBox checkGenEd = formview1.FindControl("checkGenEd");
Panel panelOutcome = formview1.FindControl("panelOutcome");
End If
End Sub
It's also saying that checkGenEd and panelOutcome are not declared. I changed my code to this but it still doesn't work:
Protected Sub FormView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.DataBound
If FormView1.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit Then
Dim checkGenEd As CheckBox = FormView1.FindControl("checkGenEd")
Dim panelOutcome As Panel = FormView1.FindControl("panelOutcome")
If checkGenEd.Checked = True Then
panelOutcome.Visible = True
Else
panelOutcome.Visible = False
End If
End If
End Sub
There aren't any errors anymore, but nothing happens when I click the checkbox. I think there needs to be some kind of event to trigger it but I don't know how you can put an event handler inside of an event handler.
I trying to save clients IP address who are submitting the data on my website. I have downloaded an example and implemented. That scrip displays IP address on the webpage. I can submit this to sql table through code behind. Now I want to use same script in FormView and I am unable to bind this with the text box as it is showing an error "The name IPaddress does not exist in the current context". My code is as under :
<script runat="server">
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
string IPAdd = string.Empty;
IPAdd = Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(IPAdd))

if it is 0 it checked it(checkbox) otherwise not ,all are enable too, i want that if it is checked it should become disable ,secondly i write some lines in code behind like row_databound event and put certain break point but it does not stop over that break point.
I have a formview with various templates set up for a database that has 255 columns. I need the insertitemtemplate to pre-fill values based upon a specific selection by the user (just like the edit item template) but when the template is switched to insertitemtemplate every text box is cleared. The idea is that a new entry is usually made by making minor changes to an existing entry. With 255 fields I don't want to require the user to enter every field when only three or four need to change.
View 8 RepliesI have an access database where when the record is updated I would like to automatically check a box and update the date to the current date in an Access 2002-2003 database. I've tried this for several days without any resolution and can't find anything that works on the net. ...I'm new at this.
I'm using VWD 2005 Express and Expressions Web 3.
Here is a short version of the code.

Is there a way i can access a certain textbox in the .asps.cs file code?
I have an insert statement where i have a textbox like so for example:
PHP Code:
<asp:TextBox ID="txt_title" runat="server"</asp:TextBox>
And then in the backend i access it like to txt_title.Text;
This is fine. However i have a calendar popup which is shown:
PHP Code:
[code]....
A calendar popup appears when i click on the button. Now i need to insert the textbox value in the database but i cant seem to get access to it in the .cs file. I have tried adding runat="server" but it then stops the popup from working.
I have a nested formview. I need to set a value for a textbox when I'm in insert mode from parent formview which is editmode.
View 4 RepliesI have n pages with formviews, all sharing a similar layout inside their item/edit/insert templates.For example all item and edit templates have a header and body part inside where i put the fields. The header has a certain style and the body part too.My question is how can i enforce this style in all my formviews without repeating the same bulk css styles all the time.Now i'm using masterpages for this with multiple formviews on 1 page. That's not good i think. I want one 1 page for edit/insert/item and 1 formview.I would prefer somehow to define the style for edit template once and load it into every formview. Ofcourse not all the formviews have the same fields, so like masterpages i would like to have 'areas' where i can put my fields.The perfect way i suppose would be to have a formview span a complete masterpage based page including the contentplaceholders inside it's edit/insert/item templates.
View 2 RepliesASP.NET 3.5I'm very confused. After inserting a record into a formview, I want to go back to readonly mode. However I need to enable a button in the ItemTemplate as well.I put my code in the ItemCreated event (tried ModeChanged event as well) as below:
If formview.currentmode = FormViewMode.ReadOnly and inprocess then
ormView.Row.FindControl("NextImageButton").Visible = True
end if
Although currentmode is ReadOnly, FormView.Row still seems to contain the EditItemTemplate (combined template for inserts and edits) controls, not the Itemtemplate controls. This seems totally wrong to me - can someone confirm?
I want to change the default formview generated template. I don't mean change the itemtemple on each page, I mean what VS generates when ever you databind the formview. I want to change it so it uses <label...>xxx</label> instead of xxx <asp....
View 2 RepliesI would like to set the one template for edit/insert and view in my custom FormView control . But i got these odd exception Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.UI.LiteralControl' to type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table'.

in the first step , I created the new user control and added a formview ("FV")
public partial class Form : UserControl
{
private IBindableTemplate _template = null;
[PersistenceMode(PersistenceMode.InnerProperty),
TemplateContainer(typeof(FormView), System.ComponentModel.BindingDirection.TwoWay)]
public IBindableTemplate FormTemplate { set;get }
protected void Page_Init()
{
if (FormTemplate != null)
{
FV.InsertItemTemplate = FV.EditItemTemplate = FormTemplate;
if (!IsPostBack) FormTemplate.InstantiateIn(FV);
}
}
}
Now , I want to convert this user control to web control.
In my "insert tempate", I formatted fields, moved them around so everything looked and acted as needed. My Question) Anyway of taking that work (including the field formatting) and copy to the "edit template" ?
VS 2010 - Language: VB
I have a simple EditItem Template within a Formview that I am using to add a record to a table. There is one field in the form that I would like to assign a variable to. I cannot figure it out. I do not see any properties in VS2008 that allow me to assign the value.
The value that I am assigning is an item number, wich is the primary key in the table that I supply on the form.
I have a code to link to sql can anyone give me the same code for microsoft access....

I am trying to change the textboxes in the FormView insert template to dropdownlists but they keep setting the parameters to null. Here's what I have:
[Code]....
In Page_Load
CType(frmSurvey.FindControl("ddlYearOfQualification"), DropDownList).Items.Add(New ListItem("2010", "2010"))
CType(frmSurvey.FindControl("ddlYearOfQualification"), DropDownList).Items.Add(New ListItem("2009", "2009"))
and in the SqlDataSource
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [tblSurvey] (... [YearOfQualification] ...) VALUES ( ... @YearOfQualification ... )
And in insert parameters:
<asp:Parameter Name="YearOfQualification" Type="Int16" />
And the insert fails with YearOfQualification as null. If I sue the standard textbox:
<asp:TextBox ID="YearOfQualificationTextBox" runat="server"
Text='<%# Bind("YearOfQualification") %>' />
I keep getting a null reference when I try to access a listbox inside the EditItemTemplate of a formview. I check the mode before accessing the control (Formview1.CurrentMode) to make sure it is in edit mode and even set it manually to edit mode again! But formview1.findcontrol("blah") returns null. Formview1.EditItemTemplate does not have a FindControl method, not sure what else to try.
View 1 RepliesIn 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'm putting together a page that allows the user to enter a new record in an SQL table. A bunch of the fields in the table are bit datatypes. I want to use CheckBoxes to correspond to the bit datatype columns in the SQL table.
How do I bind the checkboxes to the SQL table columns?

View 6 RepliesI have a web form for handling invoices which has a form view. When I'm in insert item template, I need to have various fields. Some of them are contract number, invoice number, register date and other that are easy to handle. But there is a dropdown list related with a table of prices (the table has price name, price initial payment, number of payments, amount of month fee and so on). So, when the dropdown is selected, fields related with price should get their values from price table, and then the user decides to keep them or type in new values. How can I get it done? Should I use a Dynamic populate extender or type all the code behind using SelectedIndexChanged method to populate price related controls?

View 4 RepliesI am using C#, Object Data Source, formview and a BLL. I have two drop down lists and two data sources. One populates the other. Drop down list #1 populates Drop Down list # 2 based on its selection . Drop down list # 1 is populated with DataSource #1. Forview is using DataSource #3 to send the ietms. When I add: SelectedValue='<%#Bind("Make_ID") %>', I get the error below:
Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control
I have seen a solution online but it is using LINQ and I am not familiar with it. I need to find the selected value of the drop down lists.
