I have a content page which has a related master page.I register a prefix <%@ TagPrefix ..... and can load other custom controls at that namespace.However, one particualar control at the same namespace, when added to the aspx page, breaks it.The control in question inherits from asp:Panel, has a parameterless constructor, defines a few public accessors, and creates some standard child controls, and nothing much else.Are there some fundamental restrictions to creating custom asp controls that I am breaking unknowingly?
I have a little doubt about creating a login control in the master page within a contentplaceholder.
What i want is to create my own login control in the masterpage, using a loginview inside a contentplaceholder. The code is the following:
[Code]....
So far so good, but now i want to create the logic to do the actual login. In a regular aspx page i'll do it in the cmdlogin click event, but as i'm in the masterpage, i'm not sure if i can do that. I actually tried to do it in the code behind of the masterpage, but it didn't work. What can do?? do i ahve to use the asp.net login control?
created a Custom Textbox Control that is intended to be a "masked date" textbox, so that I can handle different ways a user might enter in a date and make it work no matter what.I did this by creating a custom control with 3 separate Textboxes one for month,one for day one for year,then do some handling for different things that could be entered and it would all work.
The problem I am having is,when I add this control to the page,if I do an alert to check the Text value of the custom control it just gives me "[ServerControl1]" even if I enter in a date.
I tried doing an AutoPostback after entering so that it would refesh the Viewstate to have the values of the textboxes but the control doesnt seem to actually postback, even though I have it enabled.accessing the Textbox value after someoen has entered a date?first custom control I have created and have been using google.
I have a label control on my MasterPage that is used to display error information. If an error occurs on another aspx page or a Module.vb page, how can I display the exception in the label control on my MasterPage? I tried using a Session variable, however, it would not work in my Module.vb code-behind file.
I have a MasterPage (MasterPage.master) with 2 child MasterPages (specialMaster.master and standardMaster.master). From the MasterPage.master I need to get at some of the controls in one of the children, specialMaster.master, say for example to hide certain content if a session variable is not null.
i have a masterpage and an default.aspx page that derives from masterpage. On default.apsx, i list products. when i click add basket buton that product is added to shoppingbasket. i do this using jquery. On mastepage,there is a label that shows how many product is in shopping basket. i want to do this. when i click add basket on default.aspx, label control on masterpage show the new product count on shoppingbasket.How can i access masterpage control and change using javascript/jquery from default.aspx.
I want to create a custom control where I define several specifically named DIV sections. The code-behind logic of the custom control will perform operations on these named DIV sections. The page where the custom control is hosted needs to be able to add named controls to the DIV sections and perform operations on these named controls added to the DIV sections.
Let me explain a little further. In the custom control, I want to have code behind logic that fires the following Page Event and uses a condition to make one or another specifically named DIV section visible or not:
< _ ToolboxData("<{0}:BaseDetails runat=""server""></{0}:BaseDetails>") _ > _ Public Class BaseDetails
[code]...
how can I create a custom control which is able to generate the named DIV sections "DetailsNameDiv1" and "DetailsNameDiv2" where my custom control can check a condition and make one or the other visible. Also, I need to be able to add controls to these named DIV sections when I host the custom control and the control that I add to the named DIV section needs to let me set values of these controls from the code behind logic of the page (or usercontrol) where the custom control is being hosted (in my example, I am adding TextBox controls that I want to set the Text property from a SQL Data Reader).
I am trying to access the txtNotes textbox on the MasterPage using the following code and I get and error saying "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I seem to be having problems with something that I thought would be simple
I have
[Code].... [Code]....
and I get the error "object not set to an instance of an object" - I have moved it from prerender to load and tryed all sorts of things, but I get the same error.I am just trying to add a literal control to the masterpage from the masterpage code behind
Using VS 2010 RC, VB, I have a label on a masterpage that is hidden. I want to make it visible from a content page when needed, and have the text change on the label as well from the master page.
I am using the following to access the label, but the text and other properties don't change for some reason.
Dim lblErrorMessage As Label lblErrorMessage = CType(Master.FindControl("lblErrorMessage1"), Label) lblErrorMessage.Style.Add("display", "inline") lblErrorMessage.Text = "LoginID ALREADY EXISTS!!! Please choose a different ID"
On my master page , I have "Search textbox" and "Search Button".On My content page , I have a "User Control" which has a "GridView".It shows some data about Vendors.Also, on this User Control's Page Load, i have code written to display all vendors in GridView.Now, when user enters Vendor Number in "Search textbox" , and hits "Search Button" , i want to handle this event inside my User Control.How to do this ?
i have an odd thing with the Request.Params / Request.Form.i have a literal control in my masterpage.
[Code].... So far pretty basic i thought. But to my suprise the geLocation turns out to be null. The control wasn't found... when i then use a link from the dashboard page to another page which has the same masterpage, everything on that page seems to work fine.
I have to use inline code for an aspx page and I need to use a custom server control that is defined in the same aspx page but the control does not get processed as a server control. it gets returned as is as static html tag.
I am writing an ASP.NET custom control.In my custom control code, I find a PlaceHolder control in the page like so:this.myPlaceholder = Page.FindControl("placeholder1") as PlaceHolder Then, I render the placeholder as the output of the custom control:
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter output) if (this.myPlaceholder != null) this.myPlaceholder.RenderControl(output);
However, this causes the placeholder to be rendered in two places - in the custom control output (good) and in the original location in the page (bad).
I have a custom control that is based off the gridview control located at: here The control is basically a gridview that automatically creates a column of checkboxes that can be used to "check" individual rows in the gridview. During the gridview's "CreateColumns" event, the "checkboxcolumn" is created dynamically. The checkboxcolumn also contains another checkbox in the header that is used to "select/deselect all" checkboxes in the column. Since the gridview does not automatically remember the state of the checkboxes in the checkboxcolumn on postback, I added a method to the control called "SaveCheckBoxState" which stores the indexes of the checked rows in Viewstate, and then I modified the "OnRowDataBound" event to check the Viewstate and reset the checkboxes based on the Viewstate.
I then added a call to "SaveCheckBoxState" in the gridview's OnSorting and OnPageIndexChanging events. This works great so long as I'm sorting or changing pages. However, I need it to update the viewstate everytime someone clicks or unclicks one of the checkboxes. At this time, the checkboxes are rendered with an onclick event that calls some javascript to highlight the row, or in the case of the checkbox in the header, to select/deselect all checkboxes. I need to call the "SaveCheckBoxState" method from the javascript used by the customcontrol, or I need to find a way to modify viewstate from javascript and perform the same action as "SaveCheckBoxState".
I've tried adding the "SaveCheckBoxState" to the onclick event declaration in the checkboxes, but when run, it simply tells me that the method is undefined. It doesn't exist in the parent page, and I don't think I should have to make an event for the parent page to pass the click to. It seems to me this should be all self contained within the custom control. Does anyone know how I can acheive this? Here is the code for the gridview OnPreRender event where the onclick event of the checkbox is set:
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e) { // Do as usual base.OnPreRender(e); // Adjust each data row foreach (GridViewRow r in Rows) { // Get the appropriate style object for the row TableItemStyle style = GetRowStyleFromState(r.RowState); // Retrieve the reference to the checkbox CheckBox cb = (CheckBox)r.FindControl(InputCheckBoxField.CheckBoxID); // Build the ID of the checkbox in the header string headerCheckBoxID = String.Format(CheckBoxColumHeaderID, ClientID); // Add script code to enable selection cb.Attributes["onclick"] = String.Format("ApplyStyle(this, '{0}', '{1}', '{2}')", SelectedRowStyle.CssClass, style.CssClass, headerCheckBoxID); // Update the style of the checkbox if checked if (cb.Checked) { r.BackColor = SelectedRowStyle.BackColor; r.ForeColor = SelectedRowStyle.ForeColor; r.Font.Bold = SelectedRowStyle.Font.Bold; } else { r.BackColor = style.BackColor; r.ForeColor = style.ForeColor; r.Font.Bold = style.Font.Bold; } } }
I have a custom control which inherit from the Table class and in the constructor, it takes a an integer as an argument. There is no empty constructor.
Is there a way for the user to set that variable in the properties window after they drag the control onto a form.
I know some .NET controls, you can set the source for the parameter to different things like another control's property, QueryString using just the properties window.
Right now, I have to create the control dynamically. I read the query string and then created the object.
here's a situation and I would appreciate your response.
I have programmatically created the Wizard control:
Page_Load(obj s, evargs e) { Wizard ClaimDetailWizard = new Wizard(); foreach(int item in selectedItems) { //create new step //added custom control to new step //add step to wizard } //added wizard to a placeholder on a page }
Based on List I get from Session i added new steps to my wizard To each step I had added a custom control
Each custom control in tern contains another custom Gridview Control in it.
So here's the problem when the page loads for example for two steps. All is good Wizard does what it's supposed to do.
But when I try to use sorting or paging in that custom Gridview. Somehow it displays the gridview I should see in the next step of the wizard.
Also what I'm noticing through debugging. Is that when I press next in the wizard I go back to the original page where I do all of the code specified above, and it recreates the wizzard. But it goes to the next step. Is this the way wizard supposed to work? Just doesn't seem very efficient.
I have radiobuttons within a datalist. The page where they appear is within a master page. The method I had in mind of achieving the validation is with a custom validator and the following sub:
[Code]....
The problem with this code is form1 is not declared. As it is passed in from the master page.
I also have tried another method as follows:
[Code]....
With this sub:
[Code]....
I then get the error Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object expected
Here is the datalist. I need to make sure the user selects an answer for each question:
I have an asp.net pagel called UserApproval.aspx. On that page is a custom control ascx. So the order of events is that UserApproval's Page_Load is called, then the ascx's Page_Load is called. The ascx page might discover a problem and can't render what it needs to render (if the user isn't authorized). It has no problem hiding some of the web controls on it, but I would also like to hide some of the web controls on the parent/UserApproval page. Am I able to do this?
For example, the parent page displays instructions about clicking a button. But the buttons are built by the custom control if the user is authorized to see the buttons. If he can't, can I change or hide the parent's instructions?
I have created a user control and am ready to convert it into a custom control. I am trying to follow:
[URL] the steps mentioned in the link.
I am not seeing Build / Publish Web Site option.
I am using VS 2008. I only see Publish User Control but it doesn't give all the settings mentioned below. When I do publish user control, it just copies the ascx file to the desired location. how can I convert the user control to custom control.
I haven't worked on web applications in eight months or so (last contract work was WinForms), and I am trying to remember what I knew about custom controls. My issue is that I am replacing a developer who is gone and there isn't much doc or knowledge on-site anymore regarding at what point his code was left off. So I am figuring it out. We work with 3rd-party software API's. In an extension (a DLL), I am able to test what 3rd-party page is being navigated to and navigate to my own page instead. Let's call this page UserApproval.aspx when its the 3rd-party page, and UserApproval_mmock.aspx when it's mine (really his - the former developer's). The former developer has a line of code in the _mmock page, like so:<%@ Register TagPrefix="mockCustomCtl" TagName="TestControl" Src="~/Folder-1/Controls/MyCustomControl.ascx" %>Nowhere else in the code do I see a reference to mockCustomCtl. Shouldn't I, if the page is indeed rendering this control? Could that be where he left off - he created his own replacement page, created the custom control (I do have the source to MyCustomControl.ascx), but didn't actually put the custom control *on* the page?
I created an Extender which has a custom property that drills down a list XML elements from an xml file, where users can select xml elements during design-time. This works perfectly fine. However, my code only has a hardcoded xml filename (source of the xml elements list) and I need to change this by maxing the xml file user-specified.
What I did is that I created another control (panel) which has a custom property that when clicked (through the ellipsis), it will allow a developer to select the xml file which is supposed to be the source xml file that the Extenders shall use. The filedialog from custom panel's property works perfectly fine.
However, my problem now is that when I drag-drop my Extender, I cannot find a way to get the property value of the custom Panel Control which contains the xml filename. I tried creating a static variable which I thought the custom controls can share but VS2010 is breaking.
