I use a gridview to display data, but sometimes the data is to big to be displayed in a cell. Can I use a method to allow the gridview to display f.e. the first 100 characters of a string?
View 2 Repliesi have the follwoing piece of code. what i would like is to display the first 20 characters of the label. does anyone know how i can do this? also, i would like it to display whole words and not cut them off half way through and then display at the end '...' so the user knows there is more text to come. does this need to look for some kind of white space?
<% Html.RenderPartial("~/Views/MyView.ascx",
new
Object[] { Html.Encode(e.Label),"0" }); %>
a typical Unique Identifier looks like this "e7321a77-8422-408e-90ed-eb3df9aca4d8"How can I trim that down to display only first 23 characters? I would like to display that output in a label.
for example:
lblUID.text = "e7321a77-8422-408e-90ed"
can someone give me a vb.net 3.5 example?
I have a database that stores Chinese characters. This works fine. The code for this system is written in vbscript ASP. Here is a sample [URL]
I also access this database via ASP.NET but the characters do not come out in Chinese.
See here [URL]
Why does ASP work and ASP.NET not work?
The code to access the Chinese in ASP.NET is similar to:
query = "select * from myTable ....";
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(query, Yart.SQLServerConnections.SqlConnection);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds, "paragraphs");
Response.Write((string)ds.Tables["paragraphs"].Rows[0]["chinese"]);
I am thinking it might be my cast to a string that is destroying the encoding perhaps?
Note that in both sample pages I have this tag:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
I'm making a simple mvc site containing a database over the movies we have at home. When i display my movies i'd like to display "the short version" of the plot, leaving the rest to be read when you actually click on the movie to see more details about it. How can I do this? Do i write some sort of limitation in the string on the index page?
View 2 RepliesCan anyone tell me the best way of storing Japanese characters through ASP.NET. I have to put characters into a asp:textbox on one page, which saves it to an Access DB. On a second page I want to display the content in a asp:label. Should I store the characters directly to the database or should they be encoded, and how do I encode the characters? In my web.config i have:
<globalization fileEncoding="ISO-2022-JP" requestEncoding="ISO-2022-JP" responseEncoding="ISO-2022-JP" culture="ja-JP" uiCulture="ja-JP" />
On the display page I have:
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html;CHARSET=shift_jis">
I spent a couple days to try to find the solutions online. I am developing a web site which needs to display some Chinese characters. In the MasterPage, I put
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> in the <Head>.
In the MasterPage there are are navigation menus which are Chinese character. I have a web page Default.aspx which uses the MasterPage. In Default.aspx I have some <asp:Label>s which are Chinese characters. On the local computer, I can see all of the Chinese characters. But the problem is: after I ftp all of the files to my web server (DiscountAsp.Net), I only can see the Chinese characters in the MasterPage, I can not see the Chinese characters which belongs to the Default.aspx. Instead of Chinese characters, it displayed weird letters.
I have a web application, which I have a SQL express database attached. I tried to upload a Japanese character into a varchar (max) column, and the result when displaying in the web page is '?'.
I tried to fix by the web config and in the page display to display japanese but it doesnt work.

View 1 RepliesI'm having a problem using a xml file as datasource for my gridview.
I create this xml file myself using XMLTextWriter class, the file is created parsing an existing excel file so I don't have control over the data retrieved from the excel file. Using XMLTextWriter does encode the special characters correctly, for example: <Enter> instead of <Enter>. The problem is when I try to open this created xml for editing, I use a GridView and bind all the data but special character data is not show in the row.
Excel Data: Enter “E” or “e” and press <Enter>
XML Data: Enter “E” or “e” and press <Enter>
Data in GridView: Enter “E” or “e” and press
Is there a way to force the the GridView to decode the xml attributes correctly?

View 1 RepliesOur site has a page for maintenance of existing members (e.g. adding / changing roles, etc.)This page currently uses a gridview to show a complete list of all members, based on GetMembers() method to populate it.However, as the number of users has grown to several hundred, it has become difficult to locate a particular user by paging through several pages.Is there a way to narrow down this list, maybe with a filtering textbox, so that as you start typing into that textbox, only members whose name contains the typed characters will show up in the gridview?
View 8 RepliesMy GridView is bound to a sql data source and allows editing of fields. Coding is in C# and JavaScript.
Using Visual Studio 2008 in test mode, if I enter a less-than "<" or greater-than ">" character in a GridView textbox an error is immediately thrown upon pressing enter:
"Microsoft Visual Studio Mirosoft JScript runtime error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: An unknown error occurred while processing the request on the server. The status dode returned from the server was: 500"
When the < or > is entered in production, the page aborts and loads the application start page.
I need to be able to catch and replace those characters BEFORE the error is thrown. I've tried hooking OnTextChange code to the textboxes, but the error is thrown as soon as I press enter...the OnTextChange code never runs.
