C# - Validate Dropdownlist Selectedvalue Against A List From Static Property?

Oct 4, 2010

I am using javascript to validate user input on my aspx page. I am easily able to validate textboxes and dropdown list for differenet scenarios.

Now, on one of my dropdown lists (for country), I need to check if it is an allowed country or not for a particular service. I have stored the valid country list in a static property. Is there a way to validate my dropdownlist selected value against that static property?

function validateService(source, args)
{
var country = document.getElementById('<%= ddDestCountry.ClientID %>');
var service = document.getElementById('<%= ddService.ClientID %>');
// Get allowed country list from my static class
var countryList = document.getElementById('<%= StaticProperties.EUCountryList %>');
if (service.value == "P")
{
// I want to do something like this
if (!countrylist.Contains(country.value))
{
args.IsValid = false;
}
else {
args.IsValid = true;
}
}
return;
}

Update(Additional Information): The static property is read-only so it cannot be tampered with from the page.

C# - Bind SelectedValue Of DropDownList To Nested Property?

Feb 10, 2010

I have a asp.net FormView with a DropDownList for the selection of a month. The FormView is data bound to an ObjectDataSource.

<asp:DropDownList ID="MonthsList" DataSourceID="MonthsListDataSource" DataTextField="Value" DataValueField="Key" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("OrderDate.Month") %>' Width="100" runat="server" />

I like to bind the selected value to the nested property 'Month' of 'OrderDate' as shown above. The property OrderDate is of type DateTime. The error I'm getting while binding to a nested property is:

A call to Bind was not well formatted. Please refer to documentation for the correct parameters to Bind.

Web Forms :: DropDownList Has A SelectedValue Which Is Invalid Because It Does Not Exist In The List Of Items?

Mar 5, 2010

I have a page with some bound DropDownLists (DDLs) for a Call Logging system. The Calls are categorised on three levels for example:

Call: 3069, Category 1: Incident, Category 2: Microsoft Application, Category 3: Word would be used to organise calls for problems with Microsoft Word. On testing the system, I noticed that there was no handling for opening a call if the category had been deleted - say for reorganisation/systems no longer supported whatever. So I set about trying to make the program behave in the following manner:

Check category ID exists in DDL before bindingIt doesn't: set the displayed text of the DDL to Category Name + "(Deleted)"Disable the control to prevent user changingMove on to next control Seemed simple enough, however no matter which way I try and do it I always get the messase ddl_Cat1 has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. What's really puzzling me is that the exception doesn't seem to be being thrown in the code behind. I've gone through line by line from Page_Init and it never throws and exception. Just when the page loads this appears.

Does anyone know of a reason as to why this wouldn't work? (I've already tried setting the selected value to an existing item, adding a new list item with the value and setting DataSource property to Nothing - in all different combinations.)

Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist In Edit Template, In Detailsview. Getting "SelectedValue Does Not Exist In List?

Jun 7, 2010

I have a standard gridview and detailsview. My detailsview has some fields which are templates, with dropdownlists. The user selects a record in the gridview, then can go down to the detailsview, select Edit, and change some values (using dropdownlists).I am getting the error, "DDL has a selectedvalue which is invalid because it does not exist...." when I click Edit in the detailsview.

I know the problem has something to do with the dropdownlists not being instantiated or bound until I enter Edit mode. Is that right? In what event should I databind my dropdownlists? I've tried several things but could not get it to work. Do I have to loop through all the rows of my details view looking for the dropdownlists, or can I access them directly from some event?

Setting SelectedValue For One DropDownList Also Updates The SelectedValue For Another DropDownLIst

Jul 21, 2010

I have a WebForms page that has two DropDownList controls on it that both contain a range of temperatures from 60-80 degrees, one for heating the other for cooling. They are declared in the .aspx as:

<asp:DropDownList ID="heating" runat="server" />
<asp:DropDownList ID="cooling" runat="server" />

The values for each list are populated in the code-behind using:

for(int i = 60; i <= 80; i++)
{
var listItem = new ListItem(i + " degrees", i.ToString());

heating.Items.Add(listItem);
cooling.Items.Add(listItem);
}

When I try to set the selected value for each DropDownList using the values in an object containing data loaded from the database using:heating.SelectedValue = myHome.avgHeatingTemp.ToString();
cooling.SelectedValue = myHome.avgCoolingTemp.ToString();

The SelectedValue for both lists is set first to the value in myHome.avgHeatingTemp, then to the value in myHome.avgCoolingTemp. Heres what the values are for each variable after each step of the process of setting the SelectedValues:

Initial State
heating.SelectedValue: 60
cooling.SelectedValue: 60 [code]....

Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist Width / Can Set The Width Property Of The List To Display Wider Than The Field Itself

Oct 4, 2010

I have a dropdown list in a gridview field. The DataValueField for the ddl is an 8 digit item code. The text to display through will be quite longer, 40-60 characters because it will combine the item code and item name into a single string. I don't want the dropdownlist field to be that wide though, only what is displayed when the ddl is selected.In Access you can set the width property of the list to display wider than the field itself. Is there that capability in ASP.NET and if so where do I find it?

Get SelectedValue Of Dropdownlist From Code Behind?

On an aspx page I have a dropdownlist and a button.

I select a value from the dropdownlist and click the button.

In the button event handler I have the statment: DropDownList1.SelectedValue;

This value is showing up as the first item in the list regardless of what item is actually selected.

Same result with .SelectedItem.Value and .Text

Why? And how do I get the item actually selected?

Get SelectedValue() Of DropDownList After Setting The Value?

Dec 13, 2010

I have a databound dropdownlist on a page, where in the page_load I set the selectedValue (inside a 'not isPostBack').

Although the page displays fine and shows the correct item as selected.. inside the page_load if I try and get the selectedValue() and display it to the screen, I always get null... selectedIndex is -1.

I have a button, which when clicked refers to this ddl's selectedValue, and here it pulls through the the expected result.. so how come I can't see it immediately after setting it, while still in page_load?

edit: the code..

ddl declaration
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="dlCountryList" DataSourceID="dsCountryList"
DataValueField="countrylistid" DataTextField="description">
</asp:DropDownList>

and the page_load

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
dlCountryList.SelectedValue = "GR"
Response.Write("*" + CStr(dlCountryList.SelectedIndex) + "*")
End Sub

Web Forms :: Setting SelectedValue In Dropdownlist

May 11, 2010

I have a ASP.Net webform with a DropDownList control. This Dropdown gets it's values from a states table in an ObjectDatasource. The Dropdown contains states spelled out.

If I try to set the drop down to:
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Ohio"

I get an error that the value does not exist in the dropdown even though it does exist. But if I pad the value with the correct number of spaces to the right, it works like so:
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Ohio "
or
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Michigan "

How can I either define the dropdown without trailing spaces in the value of the dropwdown or set the SelectedValue with adding trailing spaces?

C# - Setting SelectedValue Of A DropDownList On PageLoad

Nov 11, 2010

I have a bit of a problem with a DropDownList I am using. When the user changes the SelectedIndex, they get redirected to the same page, but with a query string on the end based on their selected value.

Because I'm not posting, and redirecting instead, the state of the dropdownbox is not saved, so it always defaults to the first one.But, if I save it in say a session, or set the selectedvalue according to the query string in Page_Load, when the user selects another listitem, the selection they have chosen is overridden by the selection delcared in Page_Load.
