How To Bind Events To Controls Inside A Loaded Template
Jan 7, 2010
I'm using a FormView with a dynamically loaded item template. Inside the template (an ascx file loaded through Page.LoadTemplate(...) ) there is a button and I need to invoke the click event on that button.
I want to raise an checkbox check-changed event but its not firing :( . It Dosent raise even an command event.
My Requirement :
My Requirement is that i have a Datalist with header checkbox in headertemplate and a child checkbox in itemtemplate and a gridview control. Checking and unchecking will update the gridview control.
For a "dashboard" module I need to dynamically load user controls based on criteria as the user enters the page (role, etc). The problem is that the events are not being fired at all from the controls
As I understand it I need to load the controls in the OnPreInit method of the dashboard page, however I cannot get a reference to the Placeholder control at this point of initialization (i.e. I get a NullReferenceException); trying to load the Placeholder dynamically via Page.FindControl gives me, ironically, a StackOverflowException.
I've tried loading the controls in PreRender and OnInit as well but the events in the controls are not wired up properly and will not fire.
I have user control that inherits a base control class and these user controls are loaded using the LoadControl method, I can't seem to figure out how to raise events from user controls to the page that are dynamically loaded this way. Here is the delegate and event in the base user control class.
public delegate void SomeChangeEventHandler(object sender , SomeChangeEventArgs e); public event SomeChangeEventHandler SomeChangeEvent; public virtual void OnSomeChanged(SomeChangeEventArgs e) { if (SomeChangeEvent != null) { SomeChangeEvent(this, e); } }
I have a ObjectDataSource and a ListView referencing it.
I have created a Templated User Control (see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/36574bf6.aspx) and placed it in the ListView's InsertItemTemplate It has one template <ContentTemplate>. Inside that template, I've defined a couple of server controls with their properties = '<%# Bind("colName") #>'.
Once the template is loaded and cast back to the TabHeader class, it's null. How can I load that control, set the properties, and use it as the template? Or is the only way to go about doing this to create a custom class?
I have a gridview to which I'm adding template fields programmatically. Each of the template fields have a textbox. I would like to make this text box have 2-way binding to a database column. see below code.
[Code]....
I'm calling the above class as follows
[Code]....
How can I make the text box such that when I edit the text, this change is reflected in the database as well?
I am trying to do this with many issues of data binding doubling the amount and not setting selectedValue on dropdownlist. I have read some posts and they help but I am missing a crucial piece. My problem is that my dropdownlist is doubling the amount of records for the dropdownlist. Instead of "YES;NO;SELECT A VALUE", I am getting "YES;NO;SELECT A VALUE;YES;NO;YES;NO". My database is correct with the UPDATE part but the rebind after update is failing horribly.
I have a Formview residing inside am Item Template of a Gridview. The formview is not populating, and I am pretty convinced that I am not passing the parameter properly from the Gridview to the Formview. I have listed the relevant code only, so that you can scan though it easierGridview tag:
I've been reading up on the problems with dynamically created controls and how they have been solved. The posts I have come across are creating the controls in a panel or some other open place. I can't seem to get my checkbox to fire the event from inside a gridview. below is the code behind from inside the GridView PreRender event.
[Code]....
..And the Checked Event.. [Code]....
So after all this, nothing happens. I get the postback flash but my command inside the checked event doesn't fire.I tried putting the dynamic creation of the checkbox in Page Load with no effect.. I think because I can't place the checkbox inside the GridView under page load.
I have a user control called ucTriStateButton. It raises an event when it is clicked, called TriStateButtonClicked. If I put this user control on a page, it works fine. Here is the declaration on the .aspx page:
[Code]....
When the button is clicked the method tsbTest_TriStateButtonClicked executes correctly.
The problem is when I put the user control in template field of a GridView.
[Code]....
There is no way to hook the event handler to the control in Page_Load because I cannot get a reference to tsbMorning. So I did it in the RowDataBound event handler of the GridView, where I also do a bunch of other row-specific stuff. Although this builds and runs, the event is never actually subscribed to and so never gets fired.
So the question is - how can I handle an event from many instances of the same user control within a GridView? I am calling the same bit of code regardless of which user control is actually clicked. I only need to know that one was clicked.
I thought that Page_Load events executed every time a page was loaded not just the first time. Am I wrong on this?
I have a Page_Load event that writes text to a label to display on the screen: Output.Text &= "Welcome to my Website <br />" (Output being the ID of a Label control)
I also have an On_Click event for a button to display the same information: Output.Text &= "Welcome to my Website <br />"
After clicking the button, I expected to see the output twice. Once for the page being reloaded and once for the click event. I thought that Page_Load events executed every time a page was loaded not just the first time.
I have a ListView control on a page that I need to support inline editing and inserting. Before I put it inside an update panel, everything was fine. As soon as I put it in an update panel, I seem to lose theOnItemUpdating, OnItemCanceling events. The OnItemEding event still fires, though.I am doing all updating, inserting manually.
I have a gridview that I want to show a dropdownlist (for, let's say, column1) when it has a certain value, and I want to change that same column into a label when it has a certain value. Is this possible with gridview? if so, how?
I have created a custom control that implements Templates (based on Panel controls) ... I can do a FindControl to locate imbedded controls. This allows me to get and set values in the imbedded controls, but I want to be able to reference the imbedded controls like they are properties of the associated panel. Here is a sample of how my custom control now works:
I can do the following (where my custom control has given the panel hosting the template the name "myPanel"): Dim txt As TextBox = myCustomControl.myPanel.FindControl("myTextBox") txt.Text = "Some text to put in TextBox"
What I want to do is:
myCustomControl.myPanel.myTextBox.Text = "Some text to put in TextBox"
I am writing a custom control and implementing ITemplate in it. The code that I am using can be reviewed at the following link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178657.aspx
Under the Template field, I would only like to allow controls of specific type only, say LinkButton and TextBox. If any control(s) present inside Template is anything except LinkButton or TextBox, an error should be thrown. I am wondering how can I check it programmatically inside custom control. The problem is that there is no collection available that lists all the controls that of Template (or may be I am not aware of it.)
