C# - Creating Data Templates Using MVC?

Mar 14, 2011

I am currently evaluating the use of asp.net and MVC for a new project (vs. web part or web form pattern). While I really like the MVC pattern and the ability to abstract the code from the UI. I have a specific requiremt to create a custom control that returns data in a pre-defined format. As an example for this project I need to have data returned in a listbox control where there listboxt items contain an image and then values from the DAL. I want to have control over where the image and values from the DAL appear in the listbox control. Using WPF I have done this using Data templates. Is this possible using ASP.NET and the MVC pattern or is this only possible using a web form/ web part pattern?

Update In doing some more reading it appears that I can control how the data would be rendered in the view using markup: As an example if I have a collection (products) that returns image, name, description, price I can render this in the view by writing:

<ul id="products">
<% foreach (var p in products)
{ %>
<li>
<%:p.image%>
<%:p.name%>
<br />
<%:p.description%>
<%:p.price%>
</li>
<%} %>
</ul>

Creating Default Templates On Repeater?

Oct 27, 2010

I have a webforms control, my:Repeater, that is an asp:Repeater. I want to make a default template, like:

[code]....

I want this template to be in some file not writable by the user. If the user just do

<my:Repeater/>

then it should use my default template. However, the user may override one or more of <HeaderTemplate>,
<ItemTemplate> or <FooterTemplate>.

Is this possible, and how can I achieve it?

C# - Implement A Data-bound Control With Templates?

Jan 25, 2010

I want to implement a very simple list control. It has 2 properties:

RowTemplate (ITemplate)
DataSource (IList)

The control implementation must render each row using the template specified in RowTemplate passing the corresponding object in the DataSource list, so that, if I have a property called Name in the passed object, it would be accessible with a Eval("Name").

I want an example of how to render the control using RowTemplate and how to pass the correspondent DataSource object to the template.

I'm reading the MSDN documentation on the subject: Data Binding Expression Overview and Binding to Databases but I just can't find how to implement a control that passes an object to the template.

Forms Data Controls :: How To Navigate From EmptyDataTemplate To Other Templates In ListView

Oct 1, 2010

All the writeups on ListView's EmptyDataTemplate say that it's for displaying the fact that no data records exist, which is logical; but the bad thing is that I've found nothing as a follow-up. In other words, I haven't been able to find any "now what?" once you (as the site user) find that there aren't any data records. I am led to then ask what the real purpose of the EmptyDataTemplate is if you can't do anything with it.

I added a button called "Add Your Photo" on the EmptyDataTemplate, which activates a ModalPopupExtender with an AsyncFileUpload. All this works fine in terms of uploading the file but nothing happens after that. I wonder if I should be starting instead in the InsertItemTemplate.

So, I need to know how to accomplish a couple of options: I need to start out in either the InsertItemTemplate or the EmptyDataTemplate. If I do the latter, I will need to know how to get from there to the ItemTemplate so the rendering can be displayed.

What code should I use to display the data--that is, how do I move from the EmptyDataTemplate to the ItemTemplate?

Forms Data Controls :: ListView Templates And Showing Association Fields Rather Than An Id

Feb 17, 2011

I have a Listview that is connected to an EntityDataSource. What I'm having trouble doing is showing fields of an association in the Item Template rather than just the id.

For example, what it currently shows:

Name: John Doe
Race: 3

What I wish it would show

Name: John Doe
Race: Caucasian

Some example code:

[Code]....

Obviously, I'm getting the number because Race_ID is an integer. What I'm less sure about is how to bind it or Eval it in some manner that will let me match that id to a name in the other table (which is associated). I've tried <%# Eval("Race.Name") %>' and a few other things to try to get a name rather than an ID but I always get either the id or nothing at all.

Forms Data Controls :: Editing The Default Templates In ListView And Formview?

Feb 18, 2010

This is probably a dumb question, but I have to ask because I spend so much time editing my formviews and listviews. Is there a way to edit the default template setup for these controls, in the code or somewhere? When you drag them over you get the default text with textbox column names; then I spend over 30 mins editing each to look the way I want it to.

I know I can create standard templates for WebForms and save them as Exported Templates.

And is it possible to edit the default control when you drag them on to the page, to list certain attributes automatically. example (validation controls you always have to add ControltoValidate I would like to drag mine onto the page and it say controltovalidate="" and then all I do is fill in the blank. Intellisense is fine, but sometimes you get brain freeze after hours of web design and forget the needed attribute and you have all to go through all of the errors and mistakes.

The ultimate would be, to drag a FormView Control and when you Refresh the Schema, you get textboxes, label controls instead of text for column name, and divs for forms, and Image Buttons , I am sure there is an XML file that runs the code that you can edit or something.

OR

ASP Developers, When you develop the next ServicePack allow us to edit or create default templates to customize the default templates, in VS and VWD.

Forms Data Controls :: Formview Force Table Width In Templates?

Mar 29, 2010

to force a table width in Formview control templates? I have created a table in the ItemTemplate that works fine but I can't seem to get the table to fill the entire width of the display area. I tried wrapping the entire FormView
in a div tag and setting the width to 98% but it didn't work either. Aplogies in advance if this has already been asked. I found a lot of references to GirdView (which didn't help) and nothing helpful r/e FormView except the div tag suggestion.

Here is the code I am using for the ItemTemplate (VS 2008, VB [preferred], in a master page):

Sample ItemTemplate

<ItemTemplate>
<table cellspacing="0" style="width:98%;">

Forms Data Controls :: Validating Page With Listview Edit Item And Insert Item Templates Are Both Present

Aug 9, 2010

I have a listview set up in "flow" mode where the existing records are all on an extended page so you can scroll down to any record.

The InsertItem Template is in the first position, making it easy to insert a new record.

And one can scroll down the page to any record, click the edit button and update that record -- nice having everything on one scrollable page.

I am running into a problem with validations. I have validation controls restricting inputs for all the textboxes on the Insert Item template. They work fine. And on Item Inserted I am running a page validation:

Page.Validate()
If Not Page.IsValid Then
e.Cancel = True
End If

which works fine also.

The problem occurs when I scroll down to an existing record, and go to edit it. I have all the same validation constraints on the textboxes for the EditItemTemplate as I have on the InsertItemTemplate. But I cannot successfully do a page validation on updating the record. The code I am using on update is:

Protected Sub LVRentals_ItemUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListViewUpdateEventArgs) Handles LVRentals.ItemUpdating
Page.Validate()
If Not Page.IsValid Then
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

This results in a Cancel even if there are no validation errors on the InsertItemTemplate because the Page.Validate() seems to be causing the InsertItemTemplate to think its fields should be filled out also.

Here is the code for a typical entry of the InsertItem Template:

[code]....

All the controls in the Edit Item template are part of ValidationGroup "edit1" and those of the InsertItem Template are part of ValidationGroup "edit2"

How can I get around receiving validation errors on the InsertItem Template when I am trying to validate just the EditItemTemplate when both are present on the page?

C# - Coderush Templates For MVC

Am in the process of creating my own set of coderush templates for MVC both on the HTML side and in the code-behind. Am wondering if anyone has gone through the same process and has put them anywhere on the public domain where I could obtain them rather than "reinventing the wheel"? Otherwise will put together a list of the templates myself and post them on the public domain somewhere.

Use The Same IDs In Different FormView Templates?

Mar 3, 2010

I understand that only one FormView template is rendered at any given time, so is it ever a problem to reuse child control IDs?For example, the insert and edit templates are identical in this FormView, each has a TextBox in which a user may enter their name. Would it be a problem (or a bad idea) to give both text boxes the ID "NameTextBox"?Better yet, is there a way I can create a single template that is used in both insert and edit modes? With the same code-behind, event handlers, etc? I found a forum thread somewhere that suggested creating a web user control to use in both insert and edit modes - is this typical?
