C# - Select Item In Formview Based On Drop Down Selected Item
Jul 4, 2010
I am trying to get a drop down and a form view to work together. I've never used form views before. I also am using the entity framework to do everything. This is also my first time with it.
I want to be able to have a drop down, that is populate from the same data source as the form view. So far that works fine.
I then want to be able to change the drop down item, and it change the form view item that is displayed. I cannot figure out how to make this work.
I am trying to write a page that dynamically changes the options of one drop down based off the selected item in another one. I have varified the AJAX calls are happening correctly and vaified the root problem is that the new selected value of the dropdown is not being read during the AJAX postback. The code I am using is:
[Code]....
ddlGameName is the dropdown that the user selects from which calls the postback and then updates another dropdown. I can place a label in the updatepanel and assign the test as ddlGameName.SelectedValue.toString() and it will always read the first item in the drop down no matter which is selected. So how can I get it to read the updated selectedValue?
I have a list with 2 sorts of items. Items that have actual values (1,2,3,4 etc) and items that are like group headings so all their values are set to 0. If someone decides to select a group heading - which has a value of 0, is it possible to redirect them to my 'Select an item' item which has a value of ""?
If worse comes to worse, I can just reconstruct the entire list, although if possible I'd like to avoid it.
I have a project that queries a set of times from a database and uses these entries to populate a dropdownlist. Once the page is loaded, the user can select one of the items in the DropDownList. When the "Save" button is clicked, the Selected item value is returned to the [HttpPost] version of the controller action. This item is then stored into session. If the system returns to the page containing the dropdown, I want the saved Value to be selected in the DropDownList. What actually happens is that the DropDownList is always set to be the first item in the list.
Database Table: This data has been imported using Link to SQL
I'm trying to make the selected item the value of an asp:Label if this is possibleI am putting my drop down list in like this
For ddlAdults As Integer = 1 To strNumberSlept CType(e.Item.FindControl("ddlEditAdults"), dropdownlist).Items.Add(new ListItem(ddlAdults.ToString(), ddlAdults.ToString())) Next ddlAdults
And I need to add a selected item in to be the value of strSelectedItem
Dim strSelectedItem = CType(e.Item.FindControl("lblAdults"), label).Text
How can I pre-select a drop down list box item in a listbox? I experimented using Asp.net and C#, but was not able to pre-select a drop down listbox item.
I am not on my coding box right now, but basically as an example of what I am talking about, if I have the following drop down listbox items.
--Select-- New York Jets New England Patriots Green Bay Packers Atlanta Falcons SF 49'ers Oakland Raiders
How would I pre select the team name of "Atlanta Falcons" using C# and Asp.net? Spefically based on the string of the team name "Atlanta Falcons" instead of an alternate way like using the Selected Index function?
how do i get the selected item in the drop down list and insert it into database (togethi populated the drop down with the values from the tables in database. It is dynamic, not static.i have a button in the gridview called 'add'. so when user clicks on it the row (whatever columns in the row) would be inserted into database. i am doing insertion/create for this.
Alright heres my scenario. I click on an event and a new aspx page opens. I have two drop down lists and three text boxes. All populated with the data from the database. But when the page opens the drop down lists always show the item that is at the top of the list. Not the actual item that is in the database.
So say the name John should be there in one and a car names honda. But instead it shows alex and acura. These are just examples. But it alwasy starts with the item at the top
I have a Listview showing my data from the DB.And i have a Formview in INSERTMODE.I added a linkbutton the my Listview, in order to EDIT the data.How could i use the same Formview to Edit the item ? Will i have to change the DEFAULTMODE ? And how can i pass the Id to it ? Will i have to alter the SELECT COMMAND aswell to that it gets the querystring "ID" ?
In my application i used drop down list dynamically so that if i enter the the value in the text box that many drop down list genrated with data from database. if i select the different iteam in the drop down list it will not changed it remains the first iteam of the dropdown list. if i use post back event is true in code part that drop down list is not visible.
nt i = 0; i < rows; i++) { TableRow row = new TableRow(); for (int j = 0; j < column; j++) { TableCell cell = new TableCell(); [code]...
I'm using Model-View-Presenter framework. When Loading a page, I'm having trouble setting the selected item that came from the Database.
In view, I know I need:
protected void ddlStatus_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { presenter.DdlStatusSelectedIndexChanged(); // what should this pass? } Then in Presenter: public void DdlStatusSelectedIndexChanged() { view.DdlStatus = ??? // Should I pass the SelectedIndex? }
I also think that part of my problem is that DdlStatus I have as a List.
Interface:
List<StatusDTO> DdlStatus { set; get; }

I have been trying for a while to populate a formview when I select an item from the dropdownlist. The dropdownlist is outside of the formview. For some reason, when I select a different item it does not change in the formview. Only the first item of the list shows up. I don't know where I'm doing wrong. I tried many things and suggested informatioin and I still could not get it to work. When I do try to switch I get this error message:
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Here's what I want to accomplish: I have two .aspx pages, the first page with a ddl to select a vendor (SelectVendor.aspx), and one to add a vendor (NewVendor.aspx), if it's not in the first one. If a user adds a new vendor on the NewVendor.aspx page I want the page to automatically redirect back to SelectVendor.aspx and have the ddl automatically select the new vendor that was just added. Here's where I'm at so far: If a vendor is not listed in the ddl on SelectVendor.aspx, a user can click a button to navigate to a page to add a new vendor (NewVendor.aspx). On NewVendor.aspx the user types the name of the new vendor in a textbox and clicks an insert button to add the new vendor, then the page is automatically redirected back to SelectVendor.aspx with the new vendor name added to the QueryString. For example, let's say a user adds a vendor name "Best Vendor": The page is redirected back to SelectVendor.aspx as "SelectVendor.aspx ?vendor=Best Vendor"Now all I need from here is to have the ddl programmatically select the new vendor by the text value in the QueryString.
Here is the code that I'm having trouble with from my Page_Load routine for SelectVendor.aspx:
I simply am trying to add a color to the select item background within the select elm after a user makes a selection from the select elm. The result right now is that in firefox, the colors will change, but only during selection ... after the selection has been made the background for the individual selection is still white.
This code works fine in IE but so far my efforts have been thuarted in FireFox.
[code]....
P.s I made an equivalent javascript method and made some attempts at it, but the result is still the same. The background color of the item is changed ... but only is visible when making a selection, NOT after the selection is made.
Here when i click on button it insert all data into table but it didn't insert my selected item from dropdownlist it insert select city that i define in page_load
DDL1.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("select city", "0"));
And when i delete this code from page load it insert in table first row of my table it didn't insert my selected item from dropdown list.
i have a select element with few items and the script.
[Code]....
on selection of any item from the dropdownlist how can i get the text selected from dropdown in the javaScript function that i have provided in onchange event handler ?
Referring to a C#, .net, System.Web.UI.WebControls.Lisbox which has a multiple select option true and needs to do a postback every time selected index changes.
Problem is, the [SelectedIndex / SelectedItem / SelectedValue] is always on the value of the 1st selected item. Clicking on the second item, third item, does not change the SelectedIndex, causing the listbox to reload and scroll to the highest selected item position.
Question basically crams it all in... I'm loading a page with a querystring (ID), and I need to use that ID to set the selected item of a ListView when the page loads. The ID is a DataKey on the ListView. I have no code of value to post--none of my attempts at this work.
n a form I have multiple group of controls which are grouped using validation group property. I want to assign validation group to asp.Button dynamically on client side using javascript on the base of item selected in drop down list.
Here is JavaScript which I am using, but it is not working. It shows validation group undefined but actually a default group is defined.
<script type="text/JavaScript"> function NextClicked() { var _ddlStatus = document.getElementById("<%=ddl.ClientID%>"); var _selectedIndex = _ddlStatus.selectedIndex; var _btn = document.getElementById("<%=btnNext.ClientID%>");
alert(_btn.ValidationGroup); // here in messge it shows undefiend, yet I have defiend a group in button as default.
if (_selectedIndex == 1) { _btn.ValidationGroup = "G1"; } if (_selectedIndex == 2) { _btn.ValidationGroup = "G2"; } }
