C# - How To Format Individual DropDownlist Items (color, Etc.) During OnDataBinding Event
Apr 9, 2010
I have a basic DropDownList bound to a ObjectDataSource:
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server"
AutoPostBack="True" DataSourceID="objDataSource1"
DataTextField="FieldName" DataValueField="FieldID" />
The DataTable from which it receives the DataTextField and DataValueField values also returns some other interesting information about the records. Say Active = Y/N for simplicity's sake.
What I'd like to do is to set the background-color property of the DropDownList Item based on that Active field in the DataSource results. Further, I'd like to do this "in the same pass" as when the DropDownList is bound to the data. So my guess is that it has to happen during OnDataBound.
I could go back and loop through the DropDownList items later. But it would involve embedding loops and re-visiting the DataTable rows and it just seems inefficient
int row;
for (row = 0; row < DropDownList1.Items.Count - 1; row++)
{
[[if this row = that data row]]
DropDownList1.Items[row].[[DoStuffHere, etc.]]
}

I have a dropdownlist control in an edititemtemplate for a details view defined like this:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Primary Use">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlPrimaryUseEdit" runat="server" OnDataBinding="DropDownList_DataBinding"
[code]...
I have a datasource definded as a query to my database that has a column named "PrimaryUse". Sometimes there can be a value in the PrimaryUse column that isn't listed as one of the dropdownlist items and so my application crashes when trying to bind the dropdownlist's selectedvalue to that field. I'm trying to create code in the edititemtemplate's OnDataBinding event that will check if the value being returned from the datasource is a valid value listed as an item in the dropdownlist options. My problem is that I'm not sure how to get the datasources fieldvalue for that column in the behind code. Is this possible? Is so, can some one give me an example or point me in the direction on how to do this?So, in the OnDataBinding event for the edititemtemplate listed above, I would like to do the something like the following (psuedo code):
if datasource.datafieldvalue("PrimaryUse") is in dropdownlist.Items then Valid
else set dropdownlist.Selectedvalue = "Default"

I have an ASCX control which is a special dropdownlist. I add that control dynamically to the page and fill it with data. This control has a postback that will change the contents of a second dynamically created standard dropdownlist.
When I change the selection on the first dropdown, the indexchanged fires and I get new data and attempt to place it in the second dropdownlist's items collection, by first clearing it then filling it with new data.
This works fine the first time a change the selection, but when I select a second time the following error is thrown:
The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during the previous request.
I'm not adding or removing new controls in the fired event, only changing data. And again, it works the first time, but doesn't subsequent times.
If I disable stateview on the child control, then the control just doesn't get updated with data at all.

In my web forms application I have a site.master page with an update panel (Java Script ToolKit). Inside the update panel I have a survey and a columns chart to show its results. The chart properties are
visible = false
ImageStorageMode = UseImageLocation
RenderType = ImageTag
When the user votes, his/her vote is stored in a sql server table The chart is rebound to its data source
The chart visibility is set to true and the survey's questions are hidden. I've been trying to set the columns for the maximum and minimum values to a different color using the code I found in "Samples Environment for Microsoft Chart Controls" [URL] under Working with Chart Data Data Manipulation Finding Data Points Find Maximum and Minimum Values:
[Code]....
I have not got the columns to change their color. I have put the code inside every event handler I could think of (after it failed to work inside the page load event handler): Inside the chart Init, load, and pre_render handlers. Inside the click event handler for the voting button (before and after I call the chart.DataBind() method). Inside the page pre_render handler. Inside the ToolKitScriptManager pre_render handler. I checked the code behind the environment samples. All, to no avail.

I have a DropDownList on an ASP.NET page that gets populated by a SQL database.
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlName" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList>
The population is down in the code behind file:
ddlName.DataSource = SqlDataSource1;
ddlName.DataValueField = (this.ddlName.SelectedValue);
ddlName.DataTextField = "ccName";
ddlName.DataBind();
I was wondering if it was possible to change the background or text color of an item in the list based on it's value? I just noticed that the example below works when the page first loads but on postback the text color disappears even though that is where the code is. Is there something I am missing?
protected override void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
ddlName.DataSource = SqlDataSource5;
ddlName.DataValueField = (this.ddlName.SelectedValue);
ddlName.DataTextField = "ccName";
ddlName.DataBind();
foreach (ListItem item in ddlName.Items)
{
if (item.Value == "Item 1")
{
item.Attributes.Add("style", "color:red");
}
if (item.Value == "Item 2")
{
item.Attributes.Add("style", "color:red");
}
}
}
}
