am having a problem in selecting a value from dropdown list. Regardless of whatever I choose only the first value is selected always. Here is the code...
protected void Button4_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection con;
[[code]...
I have three dropdowns that are used to choose a date (day, month and year). I want them to initially display today's date. They are being populated with code like this:
[Code]....
So the user changes the value to whatever they want and hits the Submit button and I try to collect the values they have chosen...
Code:
DateTime returnDate = new DateTime(Convert.ToInt32(myRYear.SelectedValue), Convert.ToInt32(myRMonth.SelectedValue), Convert.ToInt32(myRDate.SelectedValue));
But the #@#$!@# thing returns today's date!
This is not what I want obviously. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong? Why doesn't it return the date as chosen?
If I remove the myRDate.SelectedIndex = DateTime.Now.Day line from the initial population statement the 3 dropdowns are set to 1/1/2010 but the chosen values are passed to the database correctly.
Is there another way to set the initial selection that will not affect the dropdown for all time.
I am trying to set the item that is selected from a drop down list based on what it in the database for that particular record. I am filling the dropdown list with a SQL DataSource I have tried a couple of example that I have found for selecting the item in the list but I am always getting the first item in the list as the selected item. This is what I am currently working with:
Code:
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
If IsPostBack Then
Else
Dim ID = New Guid(Request.QueryString("ID"))

I have a drop down box with values that shows on loadUnited States Canada Now I have a function that is checking the users value from the database which is fired on a button click. What I plan on doing is comparing the string like if United States(db value) == United States (dropdown value) then go ahead and select United States in the drop down. When I do this I am getting the right value selected but it is making all the values the same for all records.
View 5 RepliesIn my controller I generated a SelectList that I pass to the dropdown helper:<%= Html.DropDownList("abc123", Model.SomeList) %>I look at the querystring for a value, which is a ID.I then loop through all the items in the SelectList and if it is equal to the ID, I do:The controller action then passes this SelectList to the view and then to the Html helper.In debug mode I can see the value does get set to true, but the html renders without selecting the item.
View 2 RepliesWhat is the best way to do the above? Basically i have a drop down list box with a list of names pulled from a database. When someone selects a name i would then like to populate two further boxes with the persons Login ID and Email address which are held on the same DB. I have currently been using Combox1_selected index change and then running a select query on the database to fill in the other fields - unfortuntly this is too slow. There must be a better way then this? I will also need to put the values in a DB in a later stage so will need to be able to retrieve these values.
As an infopath developer this can be done easily on InfoPath using a filter - is there anything similar in ASP.net

i'm using a strongly typed view with a custom viewmodel. this viewmodel contains a collection of books.
public IList<Books> Books { get; private set; }
i'm also passing a select-list to the view. however the DropDownListFor helper class doesn't automatically preselect the default value of the book.
@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, Model.Author as SelectList)
everything else works, e.g. it does pass the selected value back to the controller.
i figured out a workaround by creating the select list in the viewmodel:
@Html.DropDownListFor(m => Model.Books[i].AuthorID, new SelectList(Model.AuthorList, "Value", "Text", @Model.Books[i].AuthorID.ToString()))
however i don't want to implement this workaround if there is a simpler solution. is there a way that the view can handle values from a collection?

I only want the record with the highest value in the EarnedPoints Column, but I get the error

I have a drop-down list that is dynamically filled with a set of values. By viewing the source code in the browser I can tell that this list is correctly filled with the "value" and "text" parameters.
But if I try to retrieve the value using ddl.SelectedItem.Value I get the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" which means that there is no parameter in "value" to retrieve ...
Page_Load() contains an "If Not IsPagePostback" in which the list is filled. I don't want to use AutoPostback = True since I want to retrieve the value-parameter when I click a "save" button. I must have missed something fundamental here that I do not grasp ...
The code to fill the list looks like this:
Code:
Dim ds as Dataset ()
ds.ReadXml(the path to an xml file)
ddl.Items.Add(New ListItem("destination", "destination"))
ddl.DataSource = ds.Tables(0).DefaultView
ddl.DataBind()
This snippet does not generate any errors: Everything is printed as it should!
But inside my Submit function I cannot be retrieve the parameter:
Code:
objcmd.parameter.add("?destination ", OdbcType.VarChar).Value = ddl.SelectedItem.Value
I want the user to be able to select, as in Windows forms a datetime picker, the date and time. Unless I am missing something this does not seem to exist in web forms.So my plan was. Create a text box and when the user enters that textbox it opens a calender. Then record the date the user has selected and update the relevant table.However, I get stuck again, as I cant seem to format the calender to show datetime. What is the best way of doing this?

I know how to do a simple grid view to show info, but with NO fancy stuff.
1) How can I click a row(not a field) and get the data for a specific field in a row ?
2) how can I put an image <img into a field of the grid view
3) How can I put a linkbutton in a field and have it run codebehind on a specific value in a field from that row.
4) I assume I can pass values to the row with visible = false, and use them in the above requests

I was wondering if ther is a Way to select a table name from a DropDown Menu and then dispaly the data in say a GridView?
For Example;
In PHP you can post a Value to a Veriable and Put that Veriable into a SQL Statement.
"SELECT * FROM '.$VAR.'" would be the statment used to return the data.
I was wondering if there was a similar way to dot his. Currently I have a different page for each table with other dropdown menus to select other options, or would continuing to do it like i have just stated be better?
I am using a treeview control. I am buliding the tree dynamically. sometimes the tree becomes larger and the down scroll bar is need to see the entire tree. user can select a node from the tree. if one node is selected ,i change the color of the node from server side.
my problem is that if a user selected a node which is bottom in the tree(means, the user used the down scrollbar to see that node), after postback it shows the top of the tree.to see the selected node the user need to use the down scroll bar.
I need to show the selected node after postback. How can I do this?

I have a repeater using a LinqDataSource as a data source. When a query string is entered, I'd like to filter the results, but ONLY when a query string is entered. If there is no query string, the results should not be filtered, all results should be returned.
I'm trying to add a WhereParameter to my LinqDataSource in the Selecting event of the LinqDataSource, but it's not working. Here's my code:
protected void ldsImages_Selecting(object sender, LinqDataSourceSelectEventArgs e)
{
if (Request.QueryString["id"] != null)
{
e.WhereParameters.Add("ImageTypeID", Request.QueryString["id"]);
}
