I'm using VS 2010 and .net 4. I'm trying to figure out how to make a textbox be multiline and set the rows in codebehind.
I'm trying to figure it out for a user control that i'm working on. So in the properties passed through the to user control it will set the textbox to be a multiline or not.
Language: C#
Values for multiline textbox in gridview are coming from SQL db "text" type previously entered by user...sometimes a small amount, sometimes a lot. Want to display enough to make it readable without wasting space on the screen. Can't believe this mechanism is not built in but have researched & see I may have to count lines then set the "number of row" property.
Question 1: Should this be done in databound or rowdatabound event?
Question 2: Could someone provide the "row counting" code (in C#)?
When changing the textbox's text mode to multiline the textbox becomes resizable during runtime. I can't seem to find the property to disable this, does anyone know how I can resolve this issue?
View 4 RepliesI have a regular expression
ValidationExpression="^((?!script).)*$"
this works good when I am using it for a normal(singleline) textbox.But when i use this with Multiline textbox it does not work. I am using RegularExpressionValidator control of asp.net for the same.Would there be any way I can make it compatible with Multiline textbox?
I am trying to add line Break in Multiline textbox when i am displaying data.
This is how i m doing but its not showing line break. I have tried using "/r/n" as well.
txtlog.Text = txtlog.Text & " Creating Objects...<br/>"
txtlog.Text = txtlog.Text & " Objects Created Successfully...<br/>"
I want the output should be like below :
Creating Objects...
Objects Created Successfully...
But it showing like without line break.
This is for a multiline textbox on an asp.net site. I can use either a html control or a an asp.net control but what I want to do is somehow recognize which line is being clicked - preferably server-side so that it works without javascript but a jquery solution would be fine as well. After the line is clicked I need to take the text from said line, and return an output after a xml lookup.

I am calling a javascript function in which i am calling AJAX to send the data to a webservice for some processing but AJAX is unable to process variable which contains multiline text.
I am reading multiline textbox value like this in javascript function.

If I comment paddress parameters in ajax "data:" it works fine other wise ajax goes on "OnError" ...Oh i just figured out that my address has 'B' Area (apostrophe) in it thats why it its giving this problem. So how to parse apostrophe as textbox value and read in javascript variable and write back in database similary.
On my Asp.Net GridView I am binding a textbox to a field in SQL. Sometimes the content of the textbox is more than 1 line and I
need to show only the LAST line. How can I do that? Here is part of my code...notice that I use Rows=1 on purpose so that I am able to show only 1 line but I need it to scroll all the way down and have it show only the last line of the whole content:
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtBoxComments" runat="server" MaxLength="5000" ReadOnly="true" Rows="1" Text='<%# Eval("Comments") %>'
TextMode="MultiLine" Width="100%" Wrap="true" />
<ItemTemplate>
I am looking for a spell check for textarea control. Can any one tell me open source or free ware control for that.
View 4 RepliesIn my web.config I have
<globalization
fileEncoding="utf-8"
requestEncoding="utf-8"
responseEncoding="utf-8"
culture="en-US"
uiCulture="de-DE"
/>
In my page directive I have
ResponseEncoding="utf-8"
Yet for some reason an ASP TextBox with the TextMode="MultiLine" allows inputs of characters outside of UTF-8. When I paste the following line of text into an ASP TextBox that is not MultiLine
the non UTF-8 characters are replaced, but not when I use a MultiLine TextBox.
EDIT: To explain a little more the set up I am seeing this problem in, here are 4 text areas that can be put on an ASP page.
<asp:TextBox ID="txtTest1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtTest2" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine"></asp:TextBox>
<input id="Text1" runat="server" />
<textarea id="Textarea1" cols="100" rows="8" runat="server">
I have a multiline textbox (textarea) that I want to verify has a particular string in it. I was trying:
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtTemplate" ValidationExpression="^(.s*)*Content(.s*)*$" Text="content" ErrorMessage="Must contain: Content" />
Using ^(.s*)*$ seems to pass for a textarea. So I tried to sandwich my criteria between two of these. But it seems to lock up both IE and Chrome.
So, I have a textbox(txtCompany) and a button(btnAddCompany) above another multiline textbox(txtCompanyList) with an associated button (btnRemoveCompany) on the one aspx form.(C#)
Quite simply, I want to add individual companies to the multiline tb from txtCompany using the add button and remove them using the remove button (Obviously).
I have a form that allows users to enter replies and then display them. I would like the entry and display fields to be multiline but limit the number af characters and not display the scroll bars??

View 3 RepliesI'm was saving some text with linebreaks from a multiline textbox into a ms access db using :
.addWithValue("@field", txtMultiline.Text.replace(environment.newline, "<br />")
No problem there, but when I want to display the saved data into a multiline textbox (for editing) i can't get the linebreak to display.
I've tried these option, but nothing seems to work:
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", environment.newline) ' This displays some empty spaces but no new lines
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", vbcrlf) ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", vbnewline) ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' This display the string like "blabla
blibli" but no new lines
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' same result
I would like to pass the content from a multiline textbox into an sql database using jQuery .ajax.
function UpdateMemogramContent() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "MemogramWebServices.asmx/UpdateMemogramContent",
data: "{ 'mId': " + $("#LabelId").text() + ", 'content': " + $("#TextBoxContent").text() + "}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: Success,
error: Error
});
}
The problem I am facing is that the content from the multiline textbox is throwing an invalid json primitive exception. Taking a look at the POST:
{ 'mId': 314, 'content': Test
Test}
