View 2 RepliesI'm creating an ASP.NET Control which has a property collection for Columns which the user can edit in the Property Collection Editor..
In most circumstances this works fine, the collection can be edited in the designer and the appropriate tags are added inside the control in the ASPX file.
It works fine when
My control is added to the form
[Code]....
My control is added inside an Update Panel

[Code]....
However, if My control is inside a Content Placeholder which is inside an Update Panel, it fails to work as it should. In this scenario, when the Columns collection is edited in the designer, if you then switch back to Source view, the Columns collection is emptied. I have to save the aspx page before switching back to Source view for the changes to be kept.

how to get around this problem? Is there something I may have missed?
Here's the code for the Control

Is there possible to work update progress in the page inside content placeholder.
View 2 RepliesI am having a slight problem with adding text (output from a stored procedure) to a label control that is nested inside a contentplaceholder (ContentPlaceHolderProductsLeftCol). The page is also using master pages.
Below are excerts of the code - I think I would have to use teh findcontrol property however I am quite lost.
Label name is lastname and is located in ContentPlaceHolderProductsLeftCol

I'm attempting to set a class on the body tag in my asp.net site which uses a master page and content web forms. I simply want to be able to do this by adding a bodycssclass property (see below) to the content web form page directive.
It works through the solution below but when i attempt to view Default.aspx the Content1 control loses its content.
Here is how I'm doing it. I have a master page with the following content:
[code]....
I have a UserControl that has some javascript I'd like to inject into a known ContentPlaceHolder.
I was hoping to do something like the following except when I append to add the control to found control I get an exception which says I cannot modify the control collection in the Init, Load or PreRender events:
"UserControl.ascx"

I'm using a masterpage and having some trouble with my ContentPlaceholders. I have a combobox(DropDownList1) in the sidemenu content placeholder and in my main placeholder I have a gridview. The gridview is supposed to do a select in the db using the selected value of DropDownList1. When I set up the connection SQL within the datagrid, using the wizard; I select to get a parameter from a control and then I select DropDownList1.
Now, When I try to run the page, it returns an error "Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: A control with ID 'DropDownList1' could not be found", however if I move DropDownList1 to the main placeholder, everything works perfectly.
How do I get asp.net to see the control sitting in the other placeholder?
i want to create a gridview programatically and add the data programatically.
View 1 RepliesNeed accessing the rendered content of a PLACEHOLDER control. I dynamically add a web forms page to a placeholder using "TABLE" this works great (cell row table placeholder ) now I wish to take that placeholder and use the rendered page to generate a PDF document.
If it possible to access the rendered code how would this be done?
in my master page content place holder.
i have a grid which is going out of placeholder (as its bit bigger ), when page is loaded. i would prefer it to stay inside the placeholder or expand the placeholder.
Currently its going out side and when it moved out of placeholder it becomes transparent to the materpage default template.
I tried this much:-
protected void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
class1 obj = new class1();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = obj.get_text();
ContentPlaceHolder ContentPlaceHolder1 = ContentPlaceHolder)this.Master.FindControl("ContentPlaceHolder1");
ContentPlaceHolder1. ????
}
I have the following code behind that was, until recently, working fine and dandy!
tbxProdAC.Attributes.Add("onclick", "$('#" + GridView1.ClientID + "').remove();
$('#" + radProdAC.ClientID + "').attr('checked', true);
$('#" + ddlBuyer.ClientID + "').val('--Choose Buyer--');
$('#" + ddlSub.ClientID + "').val('--Choose Sub Category--');
$('#" + ddlProd.ClientID + "').val('--Choose Product--');");
However, ever since I have introduced the notion of content place holders (from a master page), I am repeated getting the Object Expected error.Now I understand why this is happening, asp.net is amending the control names to take into account the CPH i.e. $('#ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_radBuyer').attr('checked', true);
How do I go about reslving this issue, effectively 'renaming' my asp.net controls to take this into account?
Is there a benefit from putting a Tabcontainer control on a master page and setting up each of the tabPanels.ContentTemplates to be a content placeholder rather than putting everything into a regular .aspx page?

When I create a default silverlight application in VS2010, I get a silverlight user control and a web site that hosts it. The object tag in the apsx page that hosts the silverlight object has its width and height set to 100%. The silverlight user control takes up all the broswer window and it also grows and shrinks properly as the browser is resized. Perfect.
If I add a master page and child page, in the child page I copy the object tag, still set at 100% height, the rendered page does not expand to fill the browser window/ I can set the object tag height to, say, 600, and it now is static at 600, but I want it to be dynamic just like when it was not hosted on a master page.
I do not believe this to be a silverlight issue, but rather a content placeholder sizing issue. I have tried a lot of diffferent ways to set the height, but nothing I do allows me to make the child page hosted object size itself based on the browser window,
Is it possile to get this to work or is this a consequence of using master pages? I can post sample code demonstrating this if needed.
EDIT: I was able to use a javascript function on window.onload to get the browser height and set the div height that contains the object tag, this works but is not dynamic. I would like it to be dynamic like the non-master page hosted object is.
the response.write() output does not show in content placeholder but on top of the page.

GOAL: on a web page (vb.net) content in a placeholder will refresh with a different .ascx (user control) every 30 seconds (rotating 3 in total) and of course i dont want to refresh the whole page, just the placeholder.
I'm new at AJAX (that's my first problem - lol)
I set the timer up to call a function, but not sure how to go about refreshing the placeholder with a different ascx file. I'm sure i'll be using UpdatePanel to do this, but haven't been able to figure this out. Easy to replace a value in a label using AsyncPostBack trigger, but nothing on how to achieve this.
A little pseudo code to provide some background:I have an ASPX with a placeholder and a buttonWhen the button is clicked it adds a web user control (uc1) to my placeholderhe uc has a buttonWhen clicked it adds a different user controls (uc2) to the placeholderStepping through the code, if I look at the placeholder.controls.count before and after the button-click in #4 the count increases by one, as you would expect.The problem is that the uc2 added in #4 doesn't appear on the screen. So, I wrapped my placeholder in an UpdatePanel. I've never used one before. So, I could refresh the placeholder after the uc2 was added.relevant ASPX code

I have a HTML table that is built with a repeater. Sometimes the table has 5 rows, sometimes it has 8 rows.
It was easy to add the header rows.
<asp:PlaceHolder runat="server" ID="additionalHeaderColumns" />
In code behind I added controls (htmlheadercells) to the contentholder:
Dim tableHeaderCell As New TableHeaderCell()
tableHeaderCell.Text = "Test"
additionalHeaderColumns.Controls.Add(tableHeaderCell)
When I try to do the same in the databound event for each row I get an errormessage that tells that its not possible to put asp:PlaceHolder inside the row. it expects tablecells.
I'm a newbie to ASP.NET and I have a following queston.
There is a HTML template in my project with some LI elements to create a multiple checkboxes on my page. Template looks like this:
[Code]....
These LI elements must be generated with standard asp:CheckBox in it for every value, retreaved via webservice request.
I'm working with a website written in aspx.net over vb.
I have a placeHolder, and I create a table of names inside this PlaceHolder, each name has an HtmlInputCheckBox next to it.
Im doing this in the aspx.vb file, when the page is uploading.
Then, when the user wants to send mail, he presses a button and than I need to access the checkboxes, and I'm having problems with this, the Sub doesn't know the checkBox object.
TThis time I'm facing some unusual behavior with a web page that I'm developing. I have a table with several controls and gridviews and stuff. At some point of the table, i have to show some rows (they were hidden) when the users clicks a button. I was doing this with a PlaceHolder, but now i have to do it without the postback being displayed. I thought: "That should be easy, all i have to do is to put the PlaceHolder inside an UpdatePanel, and that's it" but no, no no nooo!! NOTHING IS THAT EASY!!! It actually works but it puts the hidden rows at the top of the page, not where they suppose to go!!My code is the following:
<asp:UpdatePanel runat="server" ID="uplAutoridadesAmbientales">
I am using list view to display the the data but i am getting an error like An item placeholder must be specified on ListView 'ListView1'. Specify an item placeholder by setting a control's ID property to "itemPlaceholder". The item placeholder control must also specify runat="server.Even i have specified the itemplaceholder id but no use still same error.

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
