I have a FormView and I want to set a default value from the database. I can't get it to bind to the value in the database. My FormView looks like this:
[code]....
I have a formview on my aspx page containing various controls arranged using table. There is a DDL "cboClients" which i need to enable or disabled depending upon role within Edit mode.
The problem here is that i am not able to get that control using FindControl() method.
I have tried following code -
DropDownList ddl = null;
if (FormView1.Row != null)
{
ddl = (DropDownList)FormView1.Row.FindControl("cboClients");
ddl.Enabled=false;
}
Even I ave used the DataBound event of the same control -
protected void cboClients_DataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (FormView1.CurrentMode == FormViewMode.Edit)
{
if ((Session["RoleName"].ToString().Equals("Clients")) || (Session["RoleName"].ToString().Equals("Suppliers")))
{
DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList)sender;
ddl.Enabled = false;
}
}
}
But this databound event occurs only once, but not when formview mode is changed.
I have a dropdownlist in my eidtItemTemplate of my formview which gets displayed in a modalpopup.
I try to get the ddl object like this:
Code:
Dim rateddl As DropDownList = CType(Me.fvTimeSheetDetail.FindControl("ddlRateType"), DropDownList)
but I get nothing. weirdly I can find a textbox like this:
Code:
CType(Me.fvTimeSheetDetail.FindControl("txtNewTSTimestamp"), TextBox).Text
howcome the ddl doesn't get detected? what am I doing wrong? the ddl is definitely there and it gets populated
I have a Formview which contains a radiobuttonlist control in the EditItem template. I want to access the radiobuttonlist control and change the selected item client side using javascript.I've tried various combinations of document.getElemetByID and getElementsByName etc. but with no luck.Does anyone know to get to a radiobuttonlist controls in a FormView Edititem template using javascript?
View 13 RepliesI have a formview which binds to a table where one of the fields is an integer zip-code field. I want to pad the zip with a leading zero in the edit template when the zip is something like "02134". How do I edit the bound data without "breaking" the two-way binding?
I wrote simple function to add the zero and return a string:
Public
Function padZIP(ByVal zip
As
Integer)
As
String
Dim tmpStr
As
String =
CType(zip,
String)
If tmpStr.Length = 4
Then tmpStr =
"0" & tmpStr
Return tmpStr
End
Function
and I can call it in the itemtemplate fine:
<asp:Label
ID="ZipLabel"
runat="server"
Text='<%# padZIP(container.dataitem("Zip")) %>'
Width="30"
/>
but, trying to do that in the edititemtemplate breaks the binding?
How to write code in vb.net to control the Dropdown which is inside FormView EditItemTemplate. FormView named "frmFaultsReg" DetailsView named "lstStatus" Actually what i want to do that there is a textbox inside FormView EditItemTemplate and ItemTemplate to insert Closing date. lstStatus has a value PENDING and CLOSED. If a user select CLOSED from lstStatus then the date textbox named "ClrDateTimeTextBox" should show current date time and to insert into database and if user again selects PENDING from lstStatus then the date textbox should show empty. I think the postback of lstStatus should work but lstStatus is inside the FormView thats why I am unable to hook it.

[Code]....
The EditItemTemplate does not even load when I click the edit button on my FormView control, but I don't get an error message either.
I'm attempting to load DropDownLists from the C# codebehind as the FormView switches modes to Edit and displays the EditItemTemplate. I present the data in a FormView ItemTemplate using text boxes. When the user selects Edit, I have been attempting to load the EditItemTemplate dropdownlists by creating a dataset and binding it to the control, without success.
I've successfully loaded them in previous projects from within the .aspx code using <asp:ListItem> and within the C# code behind using Control.Items.Add(new ListItem), which are essentially the same thing of course . This project is different in that I want to get the data from a stored procedure on a MSSQL server.
In my latest attempt, I can see the data in the datasets. I'm getting "Error connecting to database.'eitRace' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.Parameter name: value"
I include the code below. If someone could point me to an example I would be greatful. There has to be an elegant way of accomplishing this.

I have a gridview and it has two EditItemTemplates. I want to update the items inside the second dropdown (EditItemTemplate) when I select an item from the first dropdownlistbox (EditItemTemplate). I want to update dropdownlist2 when I select an item from dropdownlist1. How can I do this?

I want to display and update user profile using FormView control. But I dont know exactly how to do this.
I am using custom providers for Roles, Membership and Profile. Everything is working fine.
I have a FormView that I user for updating a record. There is a link button that when fires should perforom the updating via BLL and DAL. I am not using built-in ODS and I will not condsider using it. I have all my grids and formviews populated manuualy by calling methods that fetch the data from the database. For instance my details view is populated like this:
protected void DlMembers_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName.ToString() == "Select")
{
DlMembers.Visible = false;
lblError.Text = string.Empty;
lblError.Visible = false;
fvMemberDetail.Visible = true;
fvMemberDetail.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit);
MemberBLL getMemberInfo = new MemberBLL();
int Ident = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument.ToString());
fvMemberDetail.DataSource = getMemberInfo.GetMemberByIdent(Ident);
fvMemberDetail.DataBind();
}
if (e.CommandName.ToString() == "DeleteSelected")
{
DlMembers.Visible = true;
lblError.Text = string.Empty;
lblError.Visible = false;
fvMemberDetail.Visible = false;
fvMemberDetail.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.ReadOnly);
}
What I want to do if to capature my linkbutton on click event and do this (except that the runtime never reaches this method):
protected void MemberInfoUpdating(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TextBox id = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtIdent");
if (id.Text != string.Empty || id.Text != "")
{
TextBox txtFN = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtFN");
TextBox txtLN = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtLN");
DropDownList ddlAddress = (DropDownList)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("ddlAddress");
TextBox txtEmail = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtEmail");
TextBox txtHPhone = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtHPhone");
TextBox txtWPhone = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtWPhone");
TextBox txtMPhone = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtMPhone");
DropDownList ddlPos = (DropDownList)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("ddlPos");
DropDownList ddlIsAdmin = (DropDownList)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("ddlIsAdmin");
bool blIsAdmin = false;
if (ddlIsAdmin.SelectedValue == "True") blIsAdmin = true;
TextBox txtComments = (TextBox)fvMemberDetail.FindControl("txtComments");
MemberBLL updateMemberInfo = new MemberBLL();
bool UpdateOK = updateMemberInfo.UpdateMemberByIdent(
txtFN.Text,
txtLN.Text,
ddlAddress.SelectedValue,
txtEmail.Text,
txtHPhone.Text,
txtWPhone.Text,
txtMPhone.Text,
blIsAdmin,
txtComments.Text,
Convert.ToInt32(ddlPos.SelectedValue),
Convert.ToInt32(id.Text));
}
else
{
//Display error - no user id cannot update record
}
}
The linkbutton looks like this:
<asp:LinkButton ID="UpdateButton" runat="server" CausesValidation="True"
OnClick="MemberInfoUpdating" Text="Update" />
Below is a line I have in my ItemTemplate of a FormView. The value in the table is null rather than true/false. Is there any way I can set the default for this to be false if it is null? Or can I do this in my stored procedure in the Select statement to return false if null?
Code:
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkCharges" runat="server" Checked='<%# Bind("MCOverrideCharges") %>'
Text="Yes" Enabled = "False" />
I don't much care for the template rigmarole of the ASP.NET FormView web forms control. It seems the only way to access template defined controls is to 'capture' module level references to the wanted controls in the ItemCreated data binding event, for use in other tasks and event handlers. Ideally I would just like to be able to call set this.DataSource and call this.DataBind on a page, but only the latter is possible through inheritence, and doesn't achieve any of my normal data binding needs. What else is there besides the hairy, scary FormView control?
View 1 RepliesI have a Formview that is bound to an SQL database, and in its item template I have added an image button.
That image button on selection needs to postback a primary key Value (VoucherID) to be used in a second control on the same page. In VWD I can get it to post back but I can't get it to post back with the VoucherID parameter.
I can easily get it to send a querystring parameter, but I don't want to do it this way.
<asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadioButtonList2" runat="server" selectedvalue='<%# Bind("FieldNameTbl") %>' RepeatDirection= "Vertical" RepeatLayout= "Table">
<asp:listitem value="0">I</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem value="1">T</asp:listitem>
</asp:RadioButtonList>
This is how it works for a radio button list in a formview insert template.
I have a FormView which will bind values from the database using a ID parameter from queryString. In my database, I have a field named CategoryList which can store multiple CategoryID (From Category table) in CSV format (eg: "1,3,4,5"). I'm using SQLDataSource as my datasource.
So, I want to show the selected category in CheckBoxList. Meaning that, the checkbox will be checked (on page load) if its ID is in the CategoryList. Also, I want to allow the user to check/uncheck the CheckBoxList and updates to the database in CSV format. How can i do that?
The title pretty much explains it. I want to bind a single item to a detail type control. I can bind to a repeater perfectly fine and obviously only one item will be displayed. It seems like there would be a better suited control for this. I know about FormView and DetailsView but they both generate a table which I don't really want. Something similar to the Repeater since it doesn't generate any content other than what you put in the template.
View 5 RepliesI have a sql-bound formview with three DDL's bound to individual SQL datasources. In edit mode, I want to set the selected value to the formview's value, and this works:
<asp:DropDownList
ID="ddl2"
runat="server"
DataSourceID="ddl2lDS"
DataValueField="Name"
SelectedValue='<%# Eval("Name") %>'
/>
But it only works when there's a match between what's in the formview's DS and the DDL's DS.
Unfortunately, there may be instances where the the formview's DS may return a null value or a value different from the DDL's datasource...and when that happens I receive a compilation error like:
'ddl2' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.
Parameter name: value
What do I need to do to trap that condition before attempting to set the selected value? Do I need to set the selected value of the DDL in formview's dataBinding or dataBound event, by looping through the DDL and checking for a match first?
I have a Formview binded in the code file to a generic list. Now, upon editing of a record, I wish to access the Keys and NewValues out of the FormViewUpdateEventArgs parameter of the ItemUpdating event handler method. From what I've tried and searched over the internet as of now, I've come to know that updated values are only available if the Formview is set a data source control on the markup page else they'd be null. Is this true?
Secondly, at this moment I am casting the sender object to formview and individually filling each object property by using FindControl method to find and retrieve values present in the controls. Is this the best way to do this task? As an example, this is what I am doing atm:
FormView currentForm = (FormView)sender;
ListObject.ID = new Guid(((HiddenField)(currentForm.FindControl("hdnID"))).Value);
ListObject.Name = ((TextBox)(currentForm.FindControl("txtName"))).Text;
I am trying to display data in a formview based on the value selected from the drop down list. FormView does not respond or display any data.
<b>Select a vendor:</b>
<asp:DropDownList ID="vendorDropDownList" runat="server"
DataSourceId="SqlDataSource1"
AutoPostBack="True" DataTextField="CO_Vendor_Name"

I want to bind an object to a form view.

Now, is it possible to generate a new object on update, without getting and reading each textbox with findcontrol?
im learning webforms and asp.net in general and what i have so far is a formview that displays data being pulled from a sqldatasource, but i also want a checkboxlist that can be used to input information and display information. this checkboxlist is insode the formview. the problem im having is that my formview is calling a datasource with an specific stored procedure with one table and my checkboxlist needs to called another stored procedure that has a different table. formviews does not allow you to have tow different datasources so how can i make this possible? ill paste the front end code and the backend code so you guys can see what im trying to do.

I select a item from gridView and trying to show/update/delete in From view. In Form View I am using the dropdownlist filling it in Code behind. Then i bound the list. But the problem is it is not showing the slected value. Here is the code
asp code <asp:GridView ID="grdVRegion" runat="server" AllowPaging="True"
AutoGenerateColumns="False"
Width="525px" PageSize="20" DataKeyNames="intPKCountry_DetailID" [code]....
I have a formview bound to an entitydatsource and it is working fine. here's the scenario though
If the querystring contains a "memberID" , I have setup an object datasource to fetch the results corresponding to the memberid from the database.
I want the name and email id fields in the formview to default to these values in the objectdatasource. How can you do this?
