How do I create an ASP.Net MVC Helper for an Html.Label which takes in attributes? Currently when I define an Html.TextBox I am able to pass in a list of attributes. Sort of like below:
new {disabled="disabled", @class="pcTextBoxWithoutPaddingDisabled"})%>
However, it does not look as though the Html.Label has this feature. As a result, I have to define my labels using the label tag. Sort of like below: <label class="pcLabelBlackWithoutPadding"> I would like to be consistent I how my Html element get created. So, how do I create an Html.Label that will take in a list of attributes?
I am trying to get some values from a List and then create a html table with this data but I can't get it to work properly.
I have:
HtmlTable table = new HtmlTable(); HtmlTableRow row; HtmlTableCell cell; foreach(var item in Name) { row = new HtmlTableRow(); foreach(var familyName in item.familyName) { cell = new HtmlTableCell(); cell.InnerText = item.familyName.ToString(); row.Cells.Add(cell); } foreach (var givenName in item.givenName) { cell = new HtmlTableCell(); cell.InnerText = item.givenName.ToString(); row.Cells.Add(cell); } table.Rows.Add(row); } this.Controls.Add(table);
When I step through the debugger I can see that row.Cells.Add(cell) contains the family name in the first loop and given name in the second loop but then something seems to be wrong and I can't get the table to show up on the page with this data.
When I check the table.rows.add(row) it says that "base {System.SystemException} = {"'HtmlTableRow' does not support the InnerText property."}"
create List of dynamic asp:Label, asp:textbox and asp:button when asp:dropdown selected index changed Dropdown List - ddlLang - English, Italian, French, German
If English is selected from ddlLang Create new asp:Label, asp:textbox and asp:button. If French is selected create another new asp:Label, asp:textbox and asp:button. In the same way so on.... and when button submit clicked get all dynamic text box values and label values to Save to DB.
I've been tryin to find an example of the syntax for getting an html 'title' for a string when using Html.Encode(). I want to display the full name in the mouseover title, if it's too long.
Is there a way to do this without wrapping the string in a < span >, i.e.
<span title = "<%=Html.Encode(model.Name) %>"> //displays the full name on mouseover <%=Html.Encode(model.Name.Substring(0, 10))%>... //displays the name up to a max length </span>
I've created a dataset using a tableAdaptor in the code-behind as follows
[Code]....
which works great for the FormView in the aspx page.I would now like to use this datasource (or create something similar) to bind one of the column values to a label's Text attribute.Totally stuck here -- i understand i cant explicity bind to a Label as I could a dataview, etc, but i should be able to set the label1.text value using a datasource from the code-behind.
I am new in ASP.NET and I am having a problem in generating the ID of each label that I generate in ListView's ItemTemplate control. I use it like this :
Clicking the label of a drop down list, re-sets the selected value to the first item in the list. This has a history of causing data entry problems when users accidently click on the label.
In the below example ddlContactType has a selected value as 'PRIMARY' and whenever i click on the lblContactType Text, the dropdown box Selected value is changing to "Select One" Text.
How to prevent this one. It should be on PRIMARY Only.
I am working in a CMS where we use tokens ( which is turned into a user control. Is there a way to add the user control into an attribute value for our template style? example :
<div class="<$tokenName/$>" />
this currently outputs an encoded user control, which is then not parsed by IIS.
I have a large string containing a custom HTML tag (xxx). The tag also has two attributes. How would I retrieve the value of the two attributes and then place the tag and its content with a new string derived from those two attributes?
I'm trying to add a new html attribute to my ValidationSummary Html control like this:
<%= Html.ValidationSummary(new { id = "validationSummary" })%>
VS compiler has no problem with it, however when it comes to running it in the browser I get the nasty error message saying:
'System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper<Adgistics.Mvc.ViewModels.Forum.IForumCreateOutModel>' does not contain a definition for 'ValidationSummary' and the best extension method overload 'System.Web.Mvc.Html.ValidationExtensions.ValidationSummary(System.Web.Mvc.HtmlHelper, string)' has some invalid arguments
An error occurred during the processing of /_layouts/MyPage/Info.aspx. Literal expressions like '<%$Resources:wss,okbutton_accesskey%>' are not allowed. Use <asp:Literal runat="server" Text="<%$Resources:wss,okbutton_accesskey%>" /> instead
That doesn't work in this situation as that would mean nesting the Literal between the quotes of the accesskey attribute, which causes a "The tag contains duplicate 'ID' attributes" error.
Is there a way to use a string from a resource without having to change the input to an asp:Button? I guess there has to be a way using <%=, but I don't know how I would address the resource itself?
But instead of manually writing out each controlID and setting its attribute with the line above, I had hoped there was a way to go through and set the attribute on each control ID if it had class=leftcolumn.
This is something I know is possible to do through JQuery easily, but I need it on the code behind during load.
I have been experiencing some very strange behavior using html buttons with the onserverclick attribute. What I am trying to do is use jQuery to designate the default button on the page. By default button I mean the button that is "clicked" when a user hits enter. In testing, I would hit enter while in an input field and sometimes the intended "default" button was clicked and the server side method defined in the corresponding onserverclick attribute was hit. Other times a post back was made without hitting the server method. In order to isolate the issue I created a minimal test case and found some very interesting results.
Client side: [Code] ....
Server side: public partial class admin_spikes_ButtonSubmitTest : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { } protected void ServerMethod1(object sender, EventArgs e) { _response.Text = "server method1 was hit"; } protected void ServerMethod2(object sender, EventArgs e) { _response.Text = "server method2 was hit"; } }
What I found was that everything worked as expected with this code except when I removed one of the input elements. In Firefox 3.6 and IE 8 when only one input exists on the page, hitting enter does not trigger the onserverclick, it makes a post back without even being jQuery "clicked" or actually "clicked". You can test this by starting with two inputs and clicking "test2". This will output "server method2 was hit". Then just hit enter and the output will be "server method1 was hit. Now take away an input and run the same test. Click "test2" see the results, then hit enter and you will see that nothing will change because the "test1" method was never hit. Chrome worked as expected
It doesn't seem that the Html.CheckBoxFor helper adds the correct "checked" attribute when rendering the HTML. I have a bool property rendered like so:
I have an ASP.NET content page. The HTML tag associated with the content page is declared in the master page. I need to add an attribute to the HTML tag from the content page. My problem is, I do not know how to access this HTML tag from the content page.
I have an AJAX Reorder List control, which is working fine. I want to add an "Edit" hyperlink to the ItemTemplate (which I have done) that opens an AJAX Modal Window when it's clicked. I need to add an OnClick attribute to call a javascript function and pass the value for the ID of the object bound to the list. I have done this before with a gridview with no problem - I just need to add code like this to RowDataBound event: If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then Dim HyperLink1 As HyperLink = e.Row.FindControl("HyperLink1") HyperLink1.Attributes.Add("onclick", "ShowPopup('" & myGridControl.DataKeys(e.Row.RowIndex).Value & "')")
I'm new to ASP.NET and MVC in particular. Now, I'm trying to understand if I can easily get values of custom attributes of submitted data. For example, When writing something like this inside a form (which works and posts and I can get the checkbox value) <%= Html.CheckBox("cb1", new { listen = "listen:6" }) %> Can I get the value of "listen" directly or do I need JS? (I know I can just use hidden fields, but I'm I'm asking anyway)
