C# - Get Control's Property Value From String In .net?
Jul 31, 2010
I need to loop through all controls on ASP.NET webpage. In configuration file I have a list of control types and their properties which will I handle in some way. Now, I am interested in following: how can I get that needed property, when all I have are strings, ie names of types of controls and names of their respective properties.Here is example: In config file I have strings:
this works fine, whenever i mouse over on image even its works perfectly. problem is when i pass it dynamically as given below,it doesnt work, how to fix this how can i add "data-zoomsrc" dynamically. I can set Src property dynamically, but how can i set data-zoomsrc.
I got an unusual problem. The solution is most likely very simple or completely impossible. I want to dynamically select a property based on a string value. I am using LINQ which automatically creates a class for each table. The actual columns in the table become properties of the class. I need a different column based on the current culture settings as the different columns contain translations. For example, if I want to set the text of a hyperlink to English I choose the EN column as follow:
So I have this object I'm creating, just to hold some string and boolean data that I want to pass to the second page. So I have a class file:
[Code]....
[Code]....
And I'm setting values from form controls, like this:
[Code]....
So here is the really weird part: if I try to set a label's text property equal to objPrimaryScreeningData.myMemberVariable after selecting it - there is nothing there. I'm sure it's a stupid mistake - being self taught stinks.
I'm trying to reference a public property from a string. How can this be done in vb.net? I have the text value of "FirstName" stored in strucParam(i).TxtPropertyName.
This is what I'm currently doing:
Dim tmpValue As String Dim ucAppName As UserControl_appName = CType(Parent.FindControl(strucParam(i).ParentFindControl), UserControl_appName) tmpValue = ucAppName.FirstName.Text
How can I use the value in strucParam(i).TxtPropertyName so that I can remove ".FirstName" from my code?
using sqldatasource with a listview to insert and show results from an SQL server db i want to try using the LINQ datasource since it seems to be more flexible in codebehind.
My problem is this: i droped a listview control to the page and i created the Linq datasource in codebehind with vb. the issue that i am having when i ..Select d.columms name i get the error system.string does not contain a property with the name "columname".. if i ommit the column name then its works fine.. i get the error.. code below:
vb code
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim rowsCount As Integer Dim showSearchForm As String showSearchForm = Request.QueryString("tab") If showSearchForm = "1" Then
[code]....
b.dbMake needs to work so that i can use Distinct ,, ia m using asp.net version:3.5 and IIS version 7.0 .. not sure what i am missing ,, but i did try alot of approaches,,1- checked the web.config file and it seems to have two assemblies and two namespaces for LINQ..2- used different databinding syntaxs,,and i searched a lot for the solution.. the last one i read the person ommited the name of the column,, i thought that wasnt the best solution.. also my dbMake column is comming up in the "intellisence" ..
I am getting above mentioned error when I try to run the following code:
Private strConnString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("conString").ConnectionString Private con As New SqlConnection(strConnString) Private pID As Integer 'FIRST SECTION Dim query As String = "query" Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(query)
[Code] .....
The error is coming from the second SQL cmd but if I comment out the first section; the second section runs fine.
I must have made another basic error but I just can't figure out what it is.
my web application i use FindControl to retrieve a Control By Name (it returns an System.Web.UI object). The control can be of various type and I don't want to treat them differently: I'd like to set the Text property to a defined string. I hope there's a class that I may use to cast the control and set the Text property.

In the original site, master page has code-behind to check a query string parameter value. Depending on this value, code-behind dynamically modify some CSS property to hide / display master page elements.
As MVC2 has no code-behind because we are supposed to perform everything in the controllers, how should I proceed in this case ?
I see this : [URL]
It partially answers my needs but the query string processing is common to all pages. How can I move this processing in a common code section ?
I'm tyring to write a simple DetailsView only used for inserting new records that will pre-fill a textbox with a query string value. Here's the DetailsView:
[code]....
All I want to do is set VenueID_FK.Text to = the "VenueID" querry string. I also want the user to be able to see the VenueID number as they are filling out GridView1.
I know this is probably a simple thing, but I am very new to asp.net. I thought I could handle this in the page load event, but when I try something like this
And then follow by setting the Text property programitically. I've accomplished something similar to this on a different page using a FormView, but only for ReadOnly mode and it was handled in the databound event on that page.
I get the error "The name 'DetailsView1' doesn't exist in the current context." when trying to do the above mentioned. When trying the same line in the databound event here, I get the same error.
I'm using SqlDataSource to update image stored in the database. Everything is working fine using the code below but I don't know how to access the Property Name to get the content type of the image. How can I have the pass the File upload's content type to the parameter @imgType?
I am developing one custom control. I dont want default web control property should be in my custom control.For example.[Code]....
When you put this control in the page, you will see default web control property such as Font,Border,Width,Height.... I want to show only those properties that I define in my class.Suppose, I have three property defined in class then only three properties will be visible for control, other default web control proeprty should be hide or invisible.
How do get the value in the JavaScript function identified in ClientValidationFunction property that was entered in the control that was identified in the ControlToValidate property of a asp:CustomValidator control?
function MyValidateFunction(sender, args) { //want to get value of MyControl } <asp:CustomValidator ID="cvAlarmedLocationAddress" runat="server" ControlToValidate="MyControl" ClientValidationFunction="MyValidateFunction" Text="" />
I have a user control with a WebDateTimeEdit server control on it (essentially a TextBox). I'd like to be able to set some of the server control's properties by way of the user control's markup or programatically. for example I have this defined on my user control:
[code]....
this blows up because WebDateTimeEdit1 is null.
is there any way I can make this happen? also can do I do this
myControl2 .Font.Size = FontUnit.Point(8);
where the Font property is read only on the server control?
I've got a web site that has a master page and that master page (mpMaster that has a user control ucControl1) which has a sub user control (ucControl2), this user control has a property which accepts a value. Now, I have a page that uses the master page and on this page I have another user control (ucPageControl), I need to find a way of setting the value in ucControl2 from ucPageControl. Is this possible at all?
I have some control. I add one instance of this control to every Page in OnInit event and I want to access this control in other places in this way: Sample.Current
public class Sample : Control { public static Sample Current { get { //??? } } }
Can you tell me what is the best way to do this property implementation?
But I getParser Error Message: Cannot create an object of type 'System.Int32' from its string representation '<%= Int32.Parse(textbox1.Text) %>' for the 'Value' property.Is there a way to do this on the ASCX file? Do I have to implement a TypeConverter for this property?
i built a user control and i want to make one of its properties as a must, that's mean if you not supply this control when you create the control the project won't be compile, just like if you omit the runat="server" property.
