Get The String From Dropdown List?
Aug 19, 2010
I have this code in my controller for Index view..
public ActionResult Index(int? id)
{
_viewModel.ServiceTypeListAll = new SelectList(_bvRepository.GetAllServiceTypes().ToList().OrderBy(n => n.ServiceTypeName).ToList(), "ServiceTypeId", "ServiceTypeName");
return View(_viewModel);
}
Using this I am able to dispaly all the ServiceTypes in my view in dropdownlist box. the code is
<%=Html.DropDownList("ServiceTypeListAll", new SelectList(Model.ServiceTypeListAll,"Value","Text"))%>
When I am trying to get the Selected Dropdownlist value from View to controller I am acceesing like this..
string categoryName = collection["ServiceTypeListAll"]; // collectoin refers FormCollection
I am expecting CategoryName should be string like what ever I am showing in Dropdownlist box.
I am getting Integer values?

I have a dropdown list that won't populate data values from database using sql datasource. When i use the code behind, i was able to populate the data to the dropdown list. I dont know how to pass the Query String Parameter using code behind since i am new in asp.net. This is the code behind:
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Partial Class PhotoAlbum
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Dim oConn As New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;" & _
"AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF;" & _
"Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True")
Dim oCmd As New SqlCommand()
Dim oDR As SqlDataReader
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
oConn.Open()
oCmd.CommandText = "SELECT [CategoryID], [Name] FROM Categories ORDER BY [Name]"
oCmd.Connection = oConn
oDR = oCmd.ExecuteReader()
Me.categories.DataSource = oDR
Me.categories.DataTextField = "Name"
Me.categories.DataValueField = "CategoryID"
Me.categories.DataBind()
oDR.Close()
oConn.Close()
End Sub
End Class
I will like to include the following information from sqlDatasource to the codebehind:
SelectCommand="SELECT [CategoryID], [Name] FROM [Categories] WHERE ([UserId] = @UserId) ORDER BY [Name]">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="UserId" QueryStringField="ID"/>
As you can see from the code behind, i was able to add :
"SELECT [CategoryID], [Name] FROM Categories ORDER BY [Name]".
But i will like to add all of this:
SelectCommand="SELECT [CategoryID], [Name] FROM [Categories] WHERE ([UserId] = @UserId) ORDER BY [Name]">
<SelectParameters>

I am stuck at this point "Displaying a dropdown list of Categories with a --None -- Option. I want the gridview control to display 2 dropdown list one in read-only mode and the other in edit mode. When a record is in read-only mode, the dropdownlist's enabled property will be set to false."When it's on a read-only mode, it doesn't display the selected Category. it shows but the "No Category". When i click on edit to edit or change category, it doesn't display the selected category.
The example is given below( I am reading the book Sams Teach yourself ASP.NET 2.0 by Scott Mitchell. page 628)

I have 2 drop down lists.I have a very simple dropdown list #1 that diplays a title and holds an id value which is a GUID.I know it is getting this value and sending this value as I tested sending it to a label.I have the dropdown list #1 to autopostback to dropdown list #2 that "Is supposed to get" another title and value based on the GUID value of the first dropdown list. for some reason it wont return anything. I have done 100's of these but never based off a guid value.I assume the value needs to be converted to guid before selecting it in the second dropdown list.How can I do this? or is there something I am missing?

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.
<p>
<tr> <td ><asp:Label ID="lblContactType" Font-Bold="true" Text="Contract Type: *" ForeColor= "red" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="ddlContactType"></asp:Label> </td> <td > <asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlContactType" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" AppendDataBoundItems="true"
DataTextField="TYPE" DataValueField="ID" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("CONTACT_TYPE_ID") %>'>
<asp:ListItem Text="Select One" Value="0" Selected="True"></asp:ListItem>.......

I have a databound dropdownlist and have a problem with the default value it selects.When I attempt to edit a record the dropdownlist shows the first value in the list rather than the current value. I want the dropdown list to display the current value.
I'm sure this is very simple but I'm very new to ASP.NET.
I'm using .NET version 4.

I'm trying to progam a strongly typed "Create" view using MVC 3 and razor. I want the user to be able to select a customer from a dropdown list (I populated this from my database using ViewBag in the controller). When the user has selected a customer I want a separate dropdown list to generate a list of dogs belonging to that customer related by the customerID in the database. The create button on the form will then take both of these values along with the the other fields and save it to the database.

I have a Cascading drop down list that is working fine to load the correct lists however I would like to have the last one initiate a query and display a datagrid on the same page containing the results of the query. Without Ajax involved this seems rather easy by using autopostback on the drop downs. If I could do it through Ajax that would be great but I can settle with having the page to reload to display the data. Right now I'm not sure how to do either. I enabled autopostback on the last drop down and wrote a method for it but I get an error at runtime saying:
Invalid postback or callback argument

I'm designing my own custom control that contains a .NET dropdownlist. What I'm wondering is if it is possible to populate my dropdownlist with listitems placed in a placeholder? For example:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlFilter" runat="server" >
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="ListItemPlaceholder" runat="server"/>
</asp:DropDownList>
This doesn't work because the DropDownList control only allows ListItems as child controls. But, I want to do something similar to this so when the user includes my control on a page, they can do something like this:
<mytag:MyControl Mode="DropDown" runat="server">
<ListItemTemplate>
<asp:ListItem Text="C" Value="c"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="E" Value="e"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="B" Value="b"></asp:ListItem>
</ListItemTemplate>
</myTag:MyControl>
I know I can do this by dynamically adding the ListItems in the page code behind, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.
