Controls - Trying To Move Around .net Panels Around Dynamically On Postback?
Jan 23, 2010
I have 2 sections of my website I am developing, a reference box that has a fixed width and a working box that has the same height as the content. I am trying to make it so the user can swap the content between the two boxes. I have the following type of setup in the aspx page:
<asp:panel id="pnlReference" runat="server" CssClass="referencePanel" >
<asp:panel id="pnlsection1" runat="server" >
Content....[code]....
What I am trying to have occur is when I press the lbtSwapPanels linkbutton, it moves pnlSection1 into pnlWorking and pnlSection2 into pnlReference. The code I used to do this in the OnClick method was:
Control pane1, pane2;
pane1 = pnlWorking.Controls[0];
pane2 = pnlReference.Controls[0];[code].....
Unfortunately, this does not work. When I click the linkbutton, nothing happens. If I then do something to perform another postback the reference and working panels become empty. I assume this has to do with the change not being saved into Viewstate but I don't know how to get around that. how to do this?
well as making my asp.net ajax tabcontainer completely fail to function. After 2 swaps and postbacks, further postbacks cease to function at all. Here's the new code
<div id="referencePane">
<asp:panel id="pnlsection1" runat="server" >
Content with tab container[code]....
First postback causes the tabcontainer to fail (javascript exceptions claiming it's trying to create a tab container with teh same ID (only one exists in the original aspx page). Postbacks then proceed to do wierd stuff.

How do I capture other events in an asp.net textbox on a webpage in more of a way in which a windows app does? For example, if I want to handle when someone just presses a key (keydown) on a textbox in a webpage?
The functionality that we want to create breaks down like this:
We want to create a "smart" search box at the top of our page. When the user starts typing, a little panel or some element should become visible and it will have some check boxes on it. They can search for one or many different types of searches: First Name, Last Name, Business Name, ZIP, Customer Number, and Contact Info. As they begin typing their search, we need it to execute some code that attempts to figure out exactly what they are searching. So if it can tell they are typing in alphabetic characters and not numbers, then we know to NOT check the Customer Number box, but we will want to check the First Name, Last Name, and Business Name boxes. If they start typing a number, we know that we can check the Customer Number box and leave the First Name and Last Name, etc boxes unchecked. If they type a number that is 5 digits, then we know to check the ZIP and Customer Numbers both. Any other length number characters and the ZIP will be unchecked. And any other rules like these that we might want to implement in the future. The idea here is we will almost always be able to tell what someone is searching, but the user can always check any box that they want to search for if they so choose. For example, if a business is named "123 Plumbing Company" and they just want to search the Business Name field for a number, they can over ride it and do that. Otherwise, they just can blindly type their search and hit enter and the program will usually know what kind of search they are trying to do.
I come from a strong windows app development background and have just recently tried to do some web development professionally. A quick few sentences on what philosophy I am missing out on as far as a more robust and "Windows App-like" webpage would be appreciated if anyone wants to coach me on that area and point me in the right direction!
Also, in my example we are using master pages. So if you can imagine a typical master page that has a logo top left and a search box and button top right, then you can picture what we have. Its simple looking. But with the content page being a separate aspx page, we are having trouble referencing it after a search is performed anyway. So what I mean by all this is The masterpage.master has a search textbox. They type something, hit enter. We then want a gridview that is on our default.aspx page to update with the results of the event that was fired from the masterpage.master.
My windows app background tells me to just point to it like I would from two different forms. Like if I had a form1 with a search box on it and I wanted it to show up the results on form2, I would just say Form2.Show: Form2.GridView = whatever.
Of course, with my confusion of what the scope of these asp.net pages is, I am having a difficult time just visualizing everything and how they are inter-related.
So I guess to recap here:
1) How do I tap into more events with textboxes or any other asp.net control. Is the answer AJAX? If so, can you elaborate just a little bit?
2) How would I use the keypress or keydown type of event to make a panel or some kind of content holder to become visible when the textbox gets focus from the cursor and go back to being invisible if it loses focus.
3) What about the scope in which asp.net pages behave?

I am trying to display a new panel after the user clicks an add button, for some reason this is not working (it refreshes the page as well, even though my button has a return true) I have tried different ways, but nothing seems to work that well.

I am creating varying number of datatables depending on user submitted query. I want to dynamically create collapsible panels for each datatable.
<asp:panel id=pnltitle1>dt1.rows(first row)</asp:panel>
<asp:panel id=pnlcontent1>dt1.rows(remaining rows)</asp:panel>
<asp:panel id=pnltitle2>dt2.rows(first row)</asp:panel>

Watch the CPU and Memory gauges for a second here: [URL]
they move dynamically.
My question - the example code shown below there does not move the gauges like that (or at least when I tried it in my own project.)
how to get it moving dynamically like that?
(Also, will these gauges slow down my site connecting to Google? On the other hand, will it bring up my rankings?)

I know this question has been asked thousands of times, and I've struggled with it before, but for some reason, I can't accomplish what I want to accomplish... I have a dynamically added LinkButton that when clicked will dynamically add a control (in this example, a textbox) to the same panel. The intent is to continuously add on as many controls as times the LinkButton was clicked (i.e. I click it once, one box, then another click will give me 2 boxes, another click adds a 3rd). In the code below, I use the current date and time serialized to create a unique ID for each textbox control.
When I execute the code, clicking "Add Filter" will generate a new textbox, but once clicked again will create a new one, and dispose of the one before it. Instead, I want to persist the previous textbox as well as any data submitted within it.In the aspx:
<asp:Panel ID="pnlFilter" runat="server">
</asp:Panel>
In the aspx.cs:
protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
LinkButton lb = new LinkButton(); [code]....

I have a page where I am using 2 update panels. The first update panel contains a form that has some validation tied to it. The second on has a simple form, but no validation. When I go to use the form in the second panel, the postback is halted by the validators in the first panel. Everything works as it should when I remove the validators.

For every row in my 'table' I am manually creating, there must be a LinkButton to delete a database row that matches a column in the table. Because no 2 controls can have the same name, I've had to use a GUID to name them so they're all unique.
Problem is, right now when I click Delete, the page posts back with no changes, but I've been told that I need to recreate the controls - but how do I recreate them in Page_Load when their ID's are randomly generated? Here's my code:

I'm passing a List to an MVC view and generating checkboxes for each object in the list (The checkboxes are named t.Name).I'd like to be able to tell which checkboxes were checked once the form is posted. However, I'd like to avoid using the FormCollection object.

My problem is:
I've got a table, dynamically created, fill with a lot of dropdownlists witches IDs are dynamically created.
When a button is pressed, I need to scan all controls in the table and save their value.
But after the postback I can't no longer access to the table.

First, I would like to apologize, the search on the site wasn't working, so I don't know if I'm missing an existing post or not.
I have a web page that uses a master page file. I am using a third party control from Component One(TabStrip), the tabs are rendered as links on the final page. When a tab(link) is clicked, I need to load the appropriate web user control associated with that tab. Each web user control has its own post backs and methods. I know that I can load the controls on the "SelectionChanged" event of the TabStrip control, but then any postback created by the web user control that is loaded causes the page to refresh and the control was never loaded in viewstate. So, I tried to put my procedure of loading the web user control into the page_init method. This would work, if I could read which link was clicked on from within the page_init method. I tried using a javascript function to run "onclick" of the tabs and within it setting the value of a hidden control. I have verified that the javascript works and that the hidden control's value is getting set correctly. When I get into the page_init method, the value of the hidden control is not readable.
I'm tying to understand the page lifecycle to the fullest, but I don't see what I'm missing here. I know that I need to load the web user controls in the page_init method in order to persist the page as a whole, but how can I get which tab(link) was clicked to know which control should be loaded?

I allow the end user to create a tab control dynamically in an ASP.Net page by getting some details. For each and every tab added I get some settings -
Tab Title
Tab Content
Tab Footer link
So I get these details for each and every tab. The user is provided with a button 'Add Tab' to more one more tab. So I need to add one more tab settings panel in the page to get the tab settings. But doing so, I lose the values entered in the previously created dynamic tab settings panel. The user can add as many tabs and enter settings for each and every tab. Finally when they save it I build the tab control (based on their settings and content) and I render the control.
Since the controls are dynamic, I'm able to thing of two options -
Recreate previously created n - 1 tab settings panel while adding a nth tab. So across each and every postback I need to recreate the settings panel for each and every tab. But I don't know how to persist the values in this case.
Add the settings panel in the client side with simple html controls and on page UnLoad parse the controls -> Parse the settings -> Save it in a hidden field -> Get it in the server side. In this case I lose all the server side capabilities where I need to write validation scripts for the controls.

So I have two UpdatePanels. I am dynamically creating server-side buttons in UpdatePanel2. When the buttons come out, they are not hooked to the asynchronoustriggers of updatePanel1.
So how can I dynamically add these triggers of these newly dynamically created buttons so that clicking these buttons will only cause a partial postback to UpdatePanel1 ? Right now, when I click these buttons, it causes a partial-postback refresh to UpdatePanel2 (the panel itself that which the controls reside in)

I have a small form with some static elements that I am able to access with javascript the bring up a popup. 4 textboxes are generated and attached to a updatepanel. I've been trying various methods of validating the contols without generating postback.
I found anytime i registered a javascript to the scriptmanager the page must refresh.
Is there anyway it can be done?

In design time I created a Gridview and a delete button in a page test.aspx:
[Code]....
The program stopped at statement "if ((row.Cells[COL_INDEX_SELECTED].Controls[0] as CheckBox).Checked)",
because it cannot find the checkbox created before.
I tried to shift all the code in Page_Load to Page_Init, but the ticked checkboxes are still lost.
I could find the ticked checkboxes names in its request object parameters(this.Request.Params.AllKey) if I setup a breakpoint on the error statement.
Does anyone konw what's happening and how to retrieve the selected rows?

I have a grid view that is dynamically created.In which every cell in the girdview has a 2 textbox (cTxtboxQty,ctxtWorkOrder) and 2 label.
When user click on the cell, a pop up come out and user are able to change the text inside the cell and click save.After that the pop up close and changed data immediately reflected on the screen.
My problem is:
After my data are changed and updated to database on the pop up page and having it post back to the parent page , my dynamically created textbox in gridview retain old value even new value has been assigned to it.
This sound very weird but i have no idea how to solve this.
My client side code is as below :

I have tested many times and find out that it might be the page hold the old value in memory, so that even we have updated the textbox value, after postback, it still keep and show the old value?

We have an already existing project on IIS and we want to move to Apache (windows) with mod_aspdotnet. What things could not work? If we use 3rd party DLLs? Will office components work fine (export to Excel, Word, etc). If you have any experience on this type of migration, I'd like your inputs! Also, is there another alternative to mod_aspdotnet?

How to get a postback on a button added dynamically
View 3 Replies
Mar 25, 2011
I have an application that is supposed to accept checks. The user has 2 radio buttons. The first radio button has a drop down list associated with it which contains the masked numbers of their previously used checking accounts.
The second radio button has three text boxes and an image of a check associated with it.
When a user hits this page, the three text boxes and the check image associated with the second radio button are disabled. Then, if the user decides he/she wants to use a new checking account, they can click the second radio button and that fires the Javascript that enables the three check boxes and the image of the check associated with that second radio button. If they click on the first radio button, it will re-disable the text boxes and hide the check image associated with the second radio button.
The problem happens when I do my server side validation. After validating all text fields, if there is a problem, I just fall out of the bottom of the code, the page posts back and the labels above the offending text fields show an error message.
One caveat: The Javascript that is supposed to fire on the OnClick event for the first radio button fires and the text fields for the second radio button are disabled. The user can click on the second radio button and the fields will enable, but this is very clunky.
Here's the enable code where I am injecting the Javascript:
Private Sub JavascriptInject()
Dim sEnableControls As String
Dim sDisableControls As String

In my code I create a table dynamically and I try to restore the table after a postback. But although I recreate the table during the Page_Load event with the same id's before,the table doesn't appear with the same state and values as before.
I think it will be a typically beginner error, but I wasn't be able to locate the error whereas reading different posts and tutorials related to this topic.
//Code behind
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Page.IsPostBack & _hfsubmittedURL.Value == "tbCreated")
{
TableRow row1 = new TableRow();
