Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist Setting Selectedvalue From Formview

Mar 11, 2011

I'm populating a dropdownlist in a formview with a different datasource from the formview's. I need to set the selected value according to the value in the formview's datasource but I'm having a hard time doing that.

Here's the code:
<asp:FormView ID="FormView1" runat="server" DataKeyNames="ID"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">
<EditItemTemplate> [code]....

Forms Data Controls :: How To Set The Selectedvalue Of A Dropdownlist With Another Objectdatasource Used For Formview

Aug 10, 2010

I'm using a FormView which has odsMain as the datasource. I am also using a dropdownlist which is being populated with objectdatasource odsddl.

I'd like to set the selectedvalue of the dropdownlist with the value contained in odsMain (the current record value for it). Is there any way this can be done?

Setting SelectedValue For One DropDownList Also Updates The SelectedValue For Another DropDownLIst

Jul 21, 2010

I have a WebForms page that has two DropDownList controls on it that both contain a range of temperatures from 60-80 degrees, one for heating the other for cooling. They are declared in the .aspx as:

<asp:DropDownList ID="heating" runat="server" />
<asp:DropDownList ID="cooling" runat="server" />

The values for each list are populated in the code-behind using:

for(int i = 60; i <= 80; i++)
{
var listItem = new ListItem(i + " degrees", i.ToString());

heating.Items.Add(listItem);
cooling.Items.Add(listItem);
}

When I try to set the selected value for each DropDownList using the values in an object containing data loaded from the database using:heating.SelectedValue = myHome.avgHeatingTemp.ToString();
cooling.SelectedValue = myHome.avgCoolingTemp.ToString();

The SelectedValue for both lists is set first to the value in myHome.avgHeatingTemp, then to the value in myHome.avgCoolingTemp. Heres what the values are for each variable after each step of the process of setting the SelectedValues:

Initial State
heating.SelectedValue: 60
cooling.SelectedValue: 60 [code]....

Web Forms :: Setting SelectedValue In Dropdownlist

May 11, 2010

I have a ASP.Net webform with a DropDownList control. This Dropdown gets it's values from a states table in an ObjectDatasource. The Dropdown contains states spelled out.

If I try to set the drop down to:
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Ohio"

I get an error that the value does not exist in the dropdown even though it does exist. But if I pad the value with the correct number of spaces to the right, it works like so:
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Ohio "
or
DropDownStates.SelectdValue = "Michigan "

How can I either define the dropdown without trailing spaces in the value of the dropwdown or set the SelectedValue with adding trailing spaces?

Web Forms :: Page Flickers When Setting Selectedvalue Of Dropdownlist With More Than 20 Items

Nov 25, 2010

I have officially wasted about two days trying to figure out what the heck was going on with my asp.net page. I actually thought it was an issue with my updatepanel code, but after reading another post I was able to reproduce the same results. [URL]

I just manually added the following control to the page (no code behind for the listbox) and it is nested in an ajax tabcontrainer inside an updatepanel. If you set item 20 as selected the page flickers when loading that tab. I tried the css mentioned (style="overflow:hidden") on the tabcontainer,tab panel, update panel and dropdownlist, but no luck. Crazy select item 19 no flicker, 20 (which is actually the 21st item) and it does flicker. This is driving me insane. And yes this only occurs in FireFox ( running 3.6).

Web Forms :: DropDownList SelectedIndexChanged Event Not Fired When Programatically Setting SelectedValue?

Oct 27, 2010

In our asp.net web application we load the dropdown list boxes in the page load. We than set the SelectedValue of each dropdown list box to an object from session. We have event handlers for many of the SelectedIndexChanged events of the drop down lists boxes, but these do not get executed when we set the selected value programmatically.

Someone else mentioned this is by design, and only when a user manually changes the drop down list selected index, will the event get raised.

I would think this is a common scenario of wanting the selectedindexchanged event handled when setting the selectedvalue/selectedindex/listitem's selected property, of a DropDownList. What is the suggested way to handle this? Is there a significant drawback of creating a custom control inherited from DropDownList that has the functionality of raising this event when changing the SelectedIndex or SelectedValue?

I binded the dropdown from the table Languages, now it shows all the languages:

ViewData("Languages") =
New SelectList(objLang,

"LanguageName")

Now when I click the edit then the dropdown should show the selectedvalue based on the languageId that is in stored in the Preferences table under the user.If i give the third parameter as the selectedvalue it is showing the selected value but it is not showing the other languages.

Get SelectedValue() Of DropDownList After Setting The Value?

Dec 13, 2010

I have a databound dropdownlist on a page, where in the page_load I set the selectedValue (inside a 'not isPostBack').

Although the page displays fine and shows the correct item as selected.. inside the page_load if I try and get the selectedValue() and display it to the screen, I always get null... selectedIndex is -1.

I have a button, which when clicked refers to this ddl's selectedValue, and here it pulls through the the expected result.. so how come I can't see it immediately after setting it, while still in page_load?

edit: the code..

ddl declaration
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="dlCountryList" DataSourceID="dsCountryList"
DataValueField="countrylistid" DataTextField="description">
</asp:DropDownList>

and the page_load

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
dlCountryList.SelectedValue = "GR"
Response.Write("*" + CStr(dlCountryList.SelectedIndex) + "*")
End Sub

C# - Setting SelectedValue Of A DropDownList On PageLoad

Nov 11, 2010

I have a bit of a problem with a DropDownList I am using. When the user changes the SelectedIndex, they get redirected to the same page, but with a query string on the end based on their selected value.

Because I'm not posting, and redirecting instead, the state of the dropdownbox is not saved, so it always defaults to the first one.But, if I save it in say a session, or set the selectedvalue according to the query string in Page_Load, when the user selects another listitem, the selection they have chosen is overridden by the selection delcared in Page_Load.

Forms Data Controls :: Setting The Selectedvalue Where The Result Of The Query Is Null?

Aug 20, 2010

I have a query that references many tables, however the main record doesnt necessarily have records in the other tables. In my formview itemtemplate, i bind the values of the query but I'm getting an obvious error when the value is null. This is what I'm trying to do: (the field is a boolean btw). These fields are hidden so I don't really care if it gets assigned a temp value or something.

Forms Data Controls :: Databound DDL Inside Formview When SelectedValue No Longer Exists?

Aug 31, 2010

I have a page that has a formview on it. Client info, name, address, usual stuff. The formview is populated by a DataSource, that calls a SQL stored procedure for the client info. It all works great.Within the formview, I have a dropdownlist for the Staff assigned to the client (StaffId is a member of the Client record called during the Formview binding). When the formview is in Item mode, the Staff name appears in a label, when in Edit mode, the dropdownlist
is bound and populated by another DataSource that calls a stored procedure of ActiveStaff. When the assigned staff exists, the StaffId is correctly bound to the DDL SelectedValue and the current staff name appears selected in the DDL when in edit mode, as it should.

Forms Data Controls :: Unable To Set The SelectedValue Of DropDownList

Jun 15, 2010

My page has a gridview, and the gridview has a TemplateField called "Acciones" (Actions). The column Acciones has a ImageButton with CommandName "Select" and CommandArgument "Tutor". Thus, the GridView has controlled event "SelectedIndexChanged". The idea is that in GV_SelectedIndexChanged, I must to set DropDownList's SelectedValue property. But, the value seted in this function don't affect the rendered dropdownlist. The debugger talk's that the value is correctly seted, but the visual result don't.

Forms Data Controls :: Dynamically Set SelectedValue In DropDownList With SQLDataAdapter?

Mar 28, 2011

I have a form that's being databound with a SQLDataAdapter. I have a DropDownList with a SelectedValue='<%# Bind("FieldName")%>' on it. I was wondering if there was a way I could remove this field and set it dynamically in the codebehind and still have it insert the value of this field with the SQLDataAdapter. The reason for this is because the control I'm using doesn't have a separate InsertItemTemplate, only an EditItemTemplate which serves both purposes, and I need this to dropdownlist to only be databound on Insert.

Right now it's looking like I'll have to stop using the SQLDataAdapter and Update/Insert the data in the codebehind, but I wanted to see if there was something I was missing just-in-case.

Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist Selectedvalue Does Not Exist Error?

Mar 2, 2011

I have a drop down list inside a formview control's edititemtemplate and itemtemplate. The dropdown list is not bound to a data source. I am hard-coding the listitems for the drop down list. The formview is bound to a datasource. All I want to do is set the selectedvalue of the dropdown to what is in the record from the database. But I keep getting the error.

<asp:formview .....>
<edititemtemplate>
.... //some other controls like textboxes that are correctly bound and display the value from the datasource
<asp:dropdownlist ID=myddl runat=server cssclass=myclass selectedvalue='<%# eval("mychoice") %>'>
<asp:listitem value='0'>I dont know</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem value='1'>Yes</asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem value='2'>No</asp:listitem>
</asp:dropdownlist
.....//rest of the edititem controls that display correctly.
</edititemtemplate>

Just for kicks, I added a textbox and set it's value to eval("mychoice") as well and it correctly prints 0,1 or 2. So, I know that there is no illegal value coming back from the datasource. It seems as something with the timing of events - when the listitems are getting bound to the ddl. The error I get is - "myddl has a selectedvalue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items".

Forms Data Controls :: Prepare Dropdownlist Selectedvalue To Be A ControlParameter Source For ObjectDataSource?

Apr 12, 2010

I have following in many controls:

<asp:ControlParameter Name="SvcCluster_Id" ControlID="frmConfigEdit$ddlCluster" PropertyName="SelectedValue" />

Everything was good before I bumped into the problem when declarative binding (SelectedValue='<# Bind("SvcCluster_Id") >') produced the error, because value has not been found in the list. So i moved binding to the code:

protected void frmConfigEdit_DataBound(Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (frmConfigEdit.CurrentMode == FormViewMode.Edit)
{
var svcCluster_id = DataBinder.Eval(frmConfigEdit.DataItem, "SvcCluster_id");
var ddlCluster = (DropDownList)frmConfigEdit.FindControl("ddlCluster");
if (svcCluster_id != null && ddlCluster.Items.FindByValue(svcCluster_id.ToString()) != null)
{
ddlCluster.SelectedValue = svcCluster_id.ToString();
}
}
}

But now seems like this happens later than ObjectDataSource tries to access frmConfigEdit$ddlCluster...

How to manage this?

I wouldn't like to move everything to the code (I mean creating Control parameters, etc)

p.s. Oops, actually it works ok for DataBound event! Sorry.

Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist In Edit Template, In Detailsview. Getting "SelectedValue Does Not Exist In List?

Jun 7, 2010

I have a standard gridview and detailsview. My detailsview has some fields which are templates, with dropdownlists. The user selects a record in the gridview, then can go down to the detailsview, select Edit, and change some values (using dropdownlists).I am getting the error, "DDL has a selectedvalue which is invalid because it does not exist...." when I click Edit in the detailsview.

I know the problem has something to do with the dropdownlists not being instantiated or bound until I enter Edit mode. Is that right? In what event should I databind my dropdownlists? I've tried several things but could not get it to work. Do I have to loop through all the rows of my details view looking for the dropdownlists, or can I access them directly from some event?

Forms Data Controls :: Setting An Insert Parameter Programatically In Formview?

Mar 21, 2010

I have a formview bound to a sqldatasource control. I want to set one of the insert parameters when I click on one of several buttons (outside the formview).

In my sqlDS I have:

<InsertParameters>
<asp:Parameter
Name="benType"
Type="byte"
/>
<asp:Parameter
Name="benName"
Type="String"
/>
<asp:Parameter
Name="benDesc"
Type="String"
/>
</InsertParameters>

I want to set the "benType" depending on which button I've pressed (I don't want/need it to be visible in the InsertTemplate). I tried adding this line to the codebehind for the button click:

formview1.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Insert)
formview1_datasource.InsertParameters(0).DefaultValue = 2

This doesn't work...what is the best way to set the insertParameter from outside the formview?
