C# - Adding A Control To A List Of Controls Dynamically?

Feb 7, 2011

I have a web page where users need to enter customer contact information. They could enter from 0 to an infinite number of contacts.

I created this page code on page:

<ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager runat="Server" EnablePartialRendering="true" ID="ScriptManager1" />
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="phCustomerContacts" runat="server" EnableViewState="true">/asp:PlaceHolder>
<asp:LinkButton ID="btnAddContact" runat="server" OnClick="btnAddContact_Click" CssClass="LinkButton" Text="Add Contact"/>

In my code behind I added this:

public void btnAddContact_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
IList<CustomerContactProfile> customerContacts = new List<CustomerContactProfile>();
if (ViewState["CustomerContactList"] != null)
customerContacts = (List<CustomerContactProfile>)ViewState["CustomerContactList"];
CustomerContactProfile contactProfile = (CustomerContactProfile)LoadControl("~/Controls/Embedded/CustomerContactProfile.ascx");
customerContacts.Add(contactProfile);
foreach (CustomerContactProfile contact in customerContacts)
phCustomerContacts.Controls.Add(contact);
ViewState["CustomerContactList"] = customerContacts;
}

This code doesn't work because the ViewState can't handle storing all of that control data. However, I cannot think of another way to store the controls that were already added.

The viewstate of the asp:PlaceHolder control doesn't save anything and I need the controls to be saved so that if a user puts in some data to the first control that the data isn't lost when they add a second one and so on.

Forms Data Controls :: Programmatically Creating Chart Control And Adding It To Dynamically Generated Table?

May 21, 2010

I am stuck in chart controls...Here is my prob... There is a ListBox containing some items...when user selects multiple items from the list box I want to generate a dynamic table with the number of columns same as that of the number items selected in the listbox. And for each selected item I want to show a seperate chart in the columns...Currently I want the same chart control for every selected item (i.e. a static hard coded chart that i will replace later by dynamic values)....I am using a method that draws a chart control using a sample dataset... I am calling it each time when a new column is created..Also the DrawChart method executes for the first column only and throws an index out of range exception! after the first execution...my code is not working...here

C# - Dynamically Adding A Custom User Control To A Page?

Nov 3, 2010

I have a usercontrol (ascx) that I want to dynamically add to a page.

Neither the control nor the page has a namespace (thanks crappy vendor).

When I use the following, it tells me it cant find the "type or namespace"

StayTunedControl = (UserControler_StayTuned)LoadControl("~/UserControler/StayTuned.ascx");
Page.Controls.Add(StayTunedControl);
StayTunedControl.StayTunedID = Convert.ToInt32(IncludesStayTunedMeta.Value);

After some tweaking to the namespaces, etc, I am now at a point where the 3rd line above generates the following error:

'System.Web.UI.UserControl' does not contain a definition for 'StayTunedID'

I was hoping that casting StayTunedControl as type (UserControler_StayTuned) would fix this.

Web Forms :: Use Dynamically Created Controls Such As A Checkbox List And Fill The Values Dynamically?

Sep 28, 2010

I'm creating an quiz application which queries the database and extracts the questions and choices. I use dynamically created controls such as a checkbox list and fill the values dynamically. How do I do this? Right now I have these functions:

array_random_init(); this creates a 10 element integer array from 1-20 - extract_question(i): this extracts a question indexed at i in DB, I created the controls and set the appropriate text in this function. - validate_question(i); this is called by button_click and validates the question i according to DB.

I understand I have to recreate the controls in Page_init on postback, but what should it look like? Do I need to add "if IsPostBack" in page_init, or do I create the controls in page_init() and reset their properties in page_load when I use extract_question(i)? Also, I cannot seem to clear the selected boxes on postback, I added page directive "enableviewstate=false" but it doesn't work.

I have a usercontrol that uses a callback to update itself. If I add the control to the aspx page everything works fine. However, when i add the control using Page.LoadControl and Control.Add on a Placeholder i get the following error: "The target 'ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$ctl00' for the callback could not be found or did not implement ICallbackEventHandler". I tryed assigning the ID of the control also which failed with the same error. I am using asp.net 2.0.

Web Forms :: Dynamically Adding User Controls

Sep 5, 2010

I am new to ASP.NET And I am have THE hardest time understanding how to work with forms in ASP.NET. Here's what I am doing:

Dynamically add User Controls to a PlaceHolder based on some int value (which currently is passed in a HiddenField).Fire an event if the WebControls inside of the User Control change, then handle that event in the Main Page (i.e. save the input to DB)When the user clicks the "Next/Continue" button, the next controls for the next page are loaded. And I guess maybe I just can't seem to get how things work in ASP.NET, because I am really struggling with the general idea of how ASP.NET flows.

Should I be dynamically loading the controls in Page_Init, or Page_Load? Or should I load the controls when the buttonclick event is fired?Do I have to add the axCtrl.OnDataChange += new EventHandler(HandleAxControlDataChange); line on Page_Load? Or should I put this in When I first load the UserControl, I need to initialize some WebControls within the UserContorl. Is there a way to know if I have loaded new user controls into my placeholder? I can't use Page.IsPostback, because after the first page, every page is a postback from the buttonclick.

Here's what I have:

C# - Creating Ascx Dynamically And Adding Controls To It?

Aug 5, 2010

I have a dropdown list on my homepage which users select a category. After selecting the category, user will fill a form which has related controls to that category in it.

As I have many categories, I just want to have single ascx page and adding controls to it dynamically according to the user choice.

For example: One chose Telephone category, he will face a form having drop down lists asking, what brand? what color? And one chose, book category, he will face drop down lists asking which type? howmany pages?

So 1 ascx must do my work at runtime done as I have alot of categories.

I am going to take these criterias from a database table which has CategoryID and Criteria colomns.

And if I can do that, will it be possible to add field validators to these dynamically created controls.

DataSource Controls :: Adding Columns To The Tables In The DB Dynamically?

Jun 30, 2010

Dim AlterTable As String = "alter table [Upload] add [Country] nvarchar (50) default 0 NOT NULL,[Address] int default 0 NOT NULL"

Dim connection As Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
connection = New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection()
connection.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ASPNETDBconnectionString1").ConnectionString
Dim cmdUpdating1 As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand(AlterTable, connection)
cmdUpdating1.CommandType = CommandType.Text
connection.Open()
cmdUpdating1.ExecuteNonQuery()
connection.Close()

This is the code which I am using for altering the number of columns in a table in the DB. so with this code i am able to add new coulmns dynamically. Now my major requirement in this is to obtain the headercount from the user( say "telephone number" and "language") and based on it generate the columns dynamically in the table in the DB.

AJAX :: Dynamically Adding Controls To A Page With An Updatepanel?

Nov 14, 2010

I am dynamically adding controls to a page with an updatepanel. The controls do trigger a post back but their events do not fire.

For example:

LinkButton link =
new
LinkButton();
link.Height = 45;
link.Width = 250;
link.Font.Underline =
link.Font.Bold =
link.ValidationGroup = "NoValidation";
link.Click += new
EventHandler(EventDoesNotFire);

I have set a break point on the Load_Page and in the EventDoesNotFire method. The Load_Page fires, but it never enters the EverDoesNotFire method.

Web Forms :: Anomaly When Dynamically Adding/deleting Controls?

Mar 15, 2010

I have a page where a user can add any number of a specific custom control by clicking a button and delete any of them by checking a "delete" box and clicking the delete button. This custom control has a dropdown, 3 radiobuttons, 2 text boxes and 2 checkboxes. The anomaly occurs when you add at least 2 controls, then delete any of them but the last one.

When each control is rendered the name and id attributes are autoincremented to make them unique however, in the above casewhen the custom control is actually renedered to the page the name attribute has an index that is 1 higher than the id. For example:

here is the name and id of the problem radio button: name = ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$PreOpUpdatePanel$PreOpStatcompareinout1$AllInOut but the id = ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PreOpUpdatePanel_PreOpStatcompareinout0_All

Now I am sure that I am doing somethign wrong but I just do not know what. Since the controls are added dynamically I have to recreate them on each postback so that the postback data can repop the fields. However, when the user deletes then the postback event makes me recreate all of them, then I have to remove the controls the user requested to be deleted. At this point the auto generated index is incorrect so the nextpostback will lose the data so I have to manually renumber the control IDs. Now this seems to work on all other controls within my custom control except for the radio buttons.

Forms Data Controls :: Get Cell Values In A GridView After Dynamically Adding Validation Controls?

Mar 31, 2010

So I have a gridview control and I am binding it's datasource dynamically base on a dropdownlist. The gridview contains autogenerated columns with auto generated edit buttons. The datasource binded to the gridview is IQueryable<T> where T will be different for different datasource.

My detail problem is below:

A GridView binded to datasource dynamically with all autogenerated columns. When user click edit link, it will display value in autogenerated textboxes.

When user click update link, I am able to capture the user entered value in the textboxes in RowUpdating event, then pass those values to Linq update function to update the database. Now, the problem begin when I try to dynamically add validation controls to each editing row. In RowDataBound event, I am checking the editrowindex then adding validation control to gridview cell and pointing to cell.controls[0] which is the textbox control when the row is in edit mode, I am dynamically setting the textbox control id so that the validation control can set controltovalidate property. The validation control works, but the updating function is setting everything on the grid to empty string.

I am check the textbox text value in the loop, which returns "" for all cells except the id column. It was returning the correct value before I add the validation control. I guess since I added the validation control on rowdatabound event, will it rerender it's own autogenerated textbox in edit mode so that the text value of textbox no longer available in rowupdating event?

Is there a better or correct way to get the cell textbox value? I am using ((TextBox)dc.Controls[0]).Text where dc is DataControlFieldCell in rowupdating event.
