I want to add the below values from Enum to drop down list
<option value="0">-- Select --</option>
<option value="AC">Active</option>
<option value="IN">InActive</option>
<option value="PC">Pending Closure</option>
I would like someone to explain how I can pass a drop down list from the presentation layer to the controller using the Model View Controller Design Pattern from Microsoft in order to bind enum values to it?
View 2 RepliesI am populating a page with controls reading properties of a class using reflection. If the property type is 'String' I will add a text-box. If the property type is enum I am adding a dropdownlist. Now I have to populate the dropdown options with enums. How can this be done?
Both the enum definition class(Assignment) and the class(classOne) using which I am populating the page with controls are in the same Namespace(MySolution.Data). While looping through classOne properties when the property name is 'SkillLevel' I will have to go to assignment class get the members of enum SkillLevelEnum and populate the dropdown.
Same needs to be done for other dropdowns also.
My Code:
namespace MySolution.Data
{
public class classOne : MyAdapter
{
private string _Model;

View 4 RepliesI have 3 drop down list boxes - One for month, day and year. I'm trying to get the value of what the user selects on those drop down list boxes. I have dynamically populated my drop down list boxes and I'm trying to output the end value on a label
private int month;
private int day;
private int year;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
for (month = 0; month <= 12; month++)
{
DropDownList2.Items.Add(month.ToString());
}
for (day = 0; day <= 31; day++)
{
DropDownList3.Items.Add(day.ToString());
}
for (year = DateTime.Now.Year; year <= DateTime.Now.Year + 75; year++)
{
DropDownList4.Items.Add(year.ToString());
}
}
protected void Button4_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
month = ?
day = ?
year = ?
Label7.Text = month + "/" + day + "/" + year;
The problem right now is I can't figure out how to actually retrieve the value the user uses
How do I create an array of values from a drop down list?
View 2 RepliesI'm stuck with a problem to populate a DropDownList control with values from the database using item field template in read only mode. since I'm new to ASP.NET. Below is the code and the error I'm getting:
'PictureReadOnlyCategories' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Parameter name: value Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: 'PictureReadOnlyCategories' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Parameter name: value
The code for this is :
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="categoriesDataSource" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand ="SELECT [CategoryID], [Name] FROM [Categories] WHERE ([UserId] = @UserId)">
<SelectParameters>
[Code]....
i am using a list view to view, insert, update and delete my data for the admin page this admin page made for the news and we have categories for that so i need to use a drop down list for these categories and when the admin choose on of these categories records its value as an ID to the database.
[Code]....
I have googled a lot to find any solution to pass the selected dropdownlist item to another page.
In my controller view, I have a got list of of items:
List<SelectListItem> PackagingService = new List<SelectListItem>();
I have an application as: SelectCommand="SELECT [CategoryID], [Name], [UserId] FROM [Categories] WHERE ([UserId] = @UserId) ORDER BY [Name]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
Pick a category: <asp:DropDownList ID="categories" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
DataSourceID="categoriesDataSource" DataTextField="Name" [code]...
When i take away the <SelectParameters>
<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="CategoryID" QueryStringField="ID" />
</SelectParameters> and ([UserId] = @UserId), the dropdown list control will populate values from the database but when i live those 2, it won't populate any value from the database. When i remove the <asp:QueryStringParameter Name="CategoryID" QueryStringField="ID" />
</SelectParameters>,and live ([UserId] = @UserId), i get the error : Must declare the scalar variable "@UserId".
As I kept my fetched datatables into session and accessing it on another page there I am
wroking on datatable to fetch only distinct values of particular column to assign to dropdown list.
I have a dropdown list with hard coded values:
<asp:ListItem Text="One Day Shoots" Value="1" />
<asp:ListItem Text="Multi-day Shoots" Value="2" />
I want to use this to insert and edit values from a db. For example when adding a record the user selects 'One Day Shoots' and 1 gets inserted into the database. Then if the user goes to edit the page since the value in the db is 1 then the 'One Day Shoots' is selected.
One way I considered accomplishing this was by using a hidden feild - when the user selects something in the dropdown list the field is updated with the value, then when the user actually adds the record the value in the feild is submitted. I'm pretty sure this would work but is there a better way?
I have created a dynamic dropdownlist. I need to get the selected values from the dynamic list and store it my sql database.

I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category".

whats wrong with this code, i try also Enum.Parse but didnt work.
public enum RoleNames
{
Administrator,
[code]...
I have a class like this
public class MyClass
{
public MyClass()
[code]...
but in my view i keep having this eror
"The value 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[MyEnum]' is not valid for Enumlist"
I did not specify any validation attribute for the property EnumList, so i don't why the automatic error.
I have a Detailsview grid with an SqlDatasource, this DVG is only going to be used to insert records. The primary purpose of the DS is to populate a DDL control in the insertItem Template that I created my code is this:
[Code]....
The DDL control populates correctly, but when I try to modify the INSERTCommand property in my DS, I try to assign the value to my parameters "TesterID" and "TesterDate" but the only options for controls to pick from, is the DGV but not the DDL in it. I assume it has to do with the InsertItem template but even if I reset it I still cannot pick the textbox as a control that would give the value to my parameters.
I did find a workaroun by build a public method and calling it in the onclick event of the insert button but looks like I have to create another connection to the database which to me seems unnecessary since I already have a DS and everything. how can I do this without having to use my method. here is my method just in case.
[Code]....
I have a table that has 3 fields (Individual-Id, LastName, and FirstName). I want to create a drop down table that displays both the FirstName and the LastName (example: Smith, John). The field Individual-Id is the 'value' field.
