Forms Data Controls :: Binding A Textbox To A Dropdownlist Selectedindex?
Feb 11, 2010
I'm having trouble binding my textbox to my dropdownlist. I got it to work but I don't think it is the correct way of doing it. I have my DDL bound to a datasource and populating everything correctly. However, I couldn't find a better way of binding my textbox to it besides using the FormView control and its counterpart, Templates (edit,insert,etc) It looks messy and i was hoping there was a better way of doing it. I've researched it online for awhile now but I couldn't understand how to implement for my situation.
My DDL has company names in it and the datasource has all the information from the table including what I'm trying to have my textbox pull (Address).
I have a DropDownList in a DetailsView, which binds a user's 'AllocatedUser' to a user in the Users table. Occasionally, we'll have some mishaps in the database where the user allocated isn't in the users table, which the DropDownList is filled with. In this case the site crashes and we get a 'SelectedValue does not exist in the list of items error'.What I want to do is catch any binding errors like that, and just set the DropDownList index to 0. I've tried something like this:
I wanted to create a dropdownlist that would trigger an asynchronous postback and update the Gridview inside the Updatepanel. However, no matter what I do, when the dropdownlist changes, nothing in the UpdatePanel will change, even the TestLabel....I've been banging my head against the walls for days on this -- why won't this work? When I remove the UpdatePanel code and triggers, all the code works, eg, you change the dropdownlist andthen gridview updates -- but it refreshes the page and this is why I wanted to put the Gridview inside an Updatepanel to make it look cleaner.[Code]....
I have a datalist where each item consists of a textbox and a dropdownlist. I want to get the datakey value when a selected dropdownlist item changes. I can get the selected value of the dropdownlist, but I can't figure out how to get the key field value of the datalist row item that the dropdown resides in.
when i change page from page1 to page 2 I remember Dropdownlist in session
Session("Dropdownlist")=Dropdownlist
now when i go back to page1 I set the Dropdowlist the way what it was before i left page1
Dropdownlist=Session("Dropdownlist")
Everything its remember but when i load the page with my Dropdownlist again. The selectedindex shows default value in the control Dropdownlist.But it does remmeber old selectedindex.I got it wired with Gridwiew and gridwiew show Data by remmeber old selectedindex. Well generally I like to remember selectedindex when i go to a differente page and when i go back have it set in the control dropdownlist the way when i left the page
how to update the text within a textbox inside the same cell of a DropDownExtender and ListBox while the option the user clicks on inside the ListBox
Here is a code snip of the template field
[Code]....
Then I also have this on the RowDataBound event of the gridview
[Code]....
What I don't understand on how to do is tell which row the onclick event took place and in what column. Then I also need to figure out how to build the JS for the front end to handle this and update the proper rows / columns textbox
I am using a dropdownlist in my application and it has corresponding SelectedIndexChanged() event.I would like to invoke GridViewEdit Event when SelectedIndexChanged event fires from dropdown list.Is it possible to implement this...??
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlStatus" Visible="true" AutoPostBack="true" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlStatus_SelectedIndexChanged" runat="server"> </asp:DropDownList> protected void ddlStatus_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { //Code to fire the GridViewEdit Event to put a row in edit mode }
I'm trying to load a gridview based on selection from dropdownlist. When i run the program, it displays empty gridview. How to solve this?
Name of dropdownlist: CatCode
Code behind:
Private Sub BindProdGrid() Dim conString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("SY_InventoryConnectionString").ConnectionString Dim rowIndex As Integer = 0 Dim box11 As DropDownList = CType(SalesGView.Rows(rowIndex).Cells(1).FindControl("CatCode"), DropDownList)
private void AddDBDataToControl(DataSet app_Support,int count) { int i = 0; while (count != 0) { DateTime dt = Convert.ToDateTime(app_Support.Tables[0].Rows[i]["FromDate"].ToString()); //dt=23/08/2010 10:04:00 AM DropDownList h1 = (DropDownList)GVDate.Rows[i].Cells[1].FindControl("txthour"); h1.SelectedValue = dt.Hour.ToString(); DropDownList m1 = (DropDownList)GVDate.Rows[i].Cells[2].FindControl("txtmin"); m1.SelectedValue = dt.Minute.ToString(); DropDownList h2 = (DropDownList)GVDate.Rows[i].Cells[5].FindControl("txthourto"); DateTime dt2 = Convert.ToDateTime(app_Support.Tables[0].Rows[i]["ToDate"].ToString()); //dt2=28/08/2010 14:25:00 PM h2.SelectedValue = dt2.Hour.ToString(); DropDownList m2 = (DropDownList)GVDate.Rows[i].Cells[6].FindControl("txtminto"); m2.SelectedValue = dt2.Minute.ToString(); count--; i++; } } When the function executes h1.SelectedValue = "10"; and m1.SelectedValue ="04"; but when it reaches to count-- h1.SelectedValue takes the value "14"; rather than h1.SelectedValue = "10"; and h2.SelectedValue = "14"; and m1.SelectedValue ="25"; rather than m1.SelectedValue ="04"; and m2.SelectedValue = "25"
these order numbers in table t2 have many part numbers(and hence the need for a second table t2)
I can display t1 using gridview just fine
In that same gridview iI have added a template column containing a dropdownlist(to show partnumbers)
now how can I bind this dropdownlist to the order number so that when the page is loaded the user can click on the dropdownlist to see all the partnumbers associated with that order number.
I have a gridview where I can browse an user's information. Through the gridview I'm also able to edit some of this information. A recent change in my client's needs demands that one of these fields is now a DropDownList. This field represents a user's "schedule" (not literally a schedule but works like one), and the different schedule options to be assigned to a user are shown in the drop down list.
Problem: In the drop down list I want to show list items like "9-12 15-17", "10-14 15-18" so that it is easy for the administrator to tell which schedule he's assigning to an user. However, that shouldn't be their actual value. I need "9-12 15-17" to actually be '1' since this is the schedule ID that I'm trying to pass on to the DB.
Here's what I have so far: [Code]....
And with this last method I change the selected item's value to the Index. Meaning that if I select "9-12 15-17" which has an Index of 1 in the dropDownList, the actual value is now 1. Again, this is the behavior I expect. My experience with ASP is quite little as I'm new on this, but as far as I know, this only actually updates the string array. How would I go about modifying this to reflect my updates on the database? All input is taken into account.
I have a Dropdownlist in an itemTemplate in a gridview. My gridView binds to dataTable1 (from which the selected value for dropdown comes from) and dropDown binds to dataTable2 (i need to get DataValueField and DataTextField from here).
I'm trying to bind a value to a dropdownlist. Here how the code looks like in the aspx page...Bind the textboxes below is not a problem...but its not working with the dropdownlist..
So basically, what i want is the value selected from the dropdownlist to be remembered after i press next button and back button..
I select a item from gridView and trying to show/update/delete in From view. In Form View I am using the dropdownlist filling it in Code behind. Then i bound the list. But the problem is it is not showing the slected value. Here is the code
I have a gridview that displays query results on a reporting page for a "home-grown" CRM application. From the gridview, a link can be clicked which opens a modal window that contains an iframe linked to a "details" page where record specific info can be viewed/altered. On the details page there are 10 or so dropdownlists (ddls) that are bound every time the page is called. The ddls are bound using a method similar to the example below. I am looking for a way top speed things up a bit. The details page could be called 10-20 times in one session and every time the page loads these ddls have to be bound from the same methods but for different records. What are some options for speeding up the load time for this page??
I am having problem to do a 2 way binding with DropDownList inside DetailsView, my markup declaration is:
[Code]....
But I am getting the following error messages on the line ddlCategoryId.DataBind(): ArgumentOutOfRangeException: 'ddlCategoryId' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.sometimes I get different error: InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.]
