Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Header Css / Set The text Color To White For The Header Only The Non Bound Columns Go White
Aug 13, 2010
i have a gridview bound to sql datasource with template fields binding the columns. I have set the Header Style to a css class. I have 3 columns not bound to data as Add, Edit and Delete. When I set the text color to white for the header only the non bound columns go white. The bound columns are BLUE like hyperlink. Any one know a way round this. (If I set the style in the gridview the all columns are white. Want to set in external css file).
I am currently working on an invoice report which may or may not span across multiple pages. I have a header which I have setup to only be displayed on the first page, and a footer which I have setup to only be displayed on the last page. The problem is, the hidden header/footer reserves unwanted whitespace and messes up the report layout (see the screenshot). The black areas represent space that is reserved by the header/footer. There must be a simple way to remove this unwanted space.
I have a gridview with the following header shown below
TYPE LOCATION
Big New York
Small BOSTON
Now, I would like to add a background colour for the headers TYPE, LOCATION. How do you do that? Kindly note, I am not trying to add a text color but instead a background color
Scenario: I have a Gridview where I want to handle the Sorting in a custom control that I've added to the header. I've added this control to my GridView's Header via OnRowCreate event handling. I want the Sort Expressions to persist session to session (via Webparts Personalization)
Here is what I have for adding the custom header control to the GridView Header
[Code]....
This works out well for adding the control, but I can't get anything to persist because these controls are creating initially via postback (per the event) and re-created on all subsequent postbacks. I can't add an If(!IsPostback) because the controls are initially created on the gridview's postback (well at least thats how it's acting when I put it in there) If I were to add this control via the ASP page, not via the Codebehind, I would be able to persist the control. If I try to treat it as though everything is setup correctly, and assign my custom control's controls to [Personalizable], I get a runtime error telling me that I can only have webpartzones in or before Page_init (I'm guessing this is due to when/where the gridview hits the OnRowCreate event). If there is some fundimental logic I'm missing, or best practices that I'm moving away from,
I have a gridview control which gets data from database. One of the column is a checkbox and based on the value of the checkbox, I need to display 2 more columns. Currently I am having 2 issues:
1. I am able to achieve this when OnDataBound event gets triggered. Basically I am checking the row state and type and if it is in Normal mode I check the status of the checkbox and based on the status I am setting the style on the columns I want to hide (columns contain checkboxes). But for some reason, I am not able to hide the header. The GridView shows the header but the text boxes which are in the columns are hidden.
2. During Edit mode, I have attached a javascript to the checkbox and when the status of the checkbox changes, it hide/unhides the columns, again header cannot be made hidden. Also, if I use the Visible property of the header, I can make the header invisibly (only using the code behind) but when javascript is invoked on the checkbox during edit mode, it cannot find the controls as they are not visible and hence does not do anything. Since TemplateField does not support style property I can't even set the style["display"].
I am having problems with rendering differences between a gridview control and a local report .rdlc rendering. The dataset shows different spacing between characters in the dataset visualizer than it does in the gridview. The sql reporting services report is more closely rendering what is shown in the visualizer. The dataset is filled From a DAL and then bound to the gridview and reporting service at runtime. I'm currently using VS2008 and programming in VB.
I want to add the header dynamically during runtime in grid view. I am implementing an attendance application where I want to show the report as absent or present for the last few days for a subject. 1 means present and 0 means absent. How to bind these dates as header during runtime these dates i am getting from database.

I want to fill a gridview with data from a database table..But, I have to avoid the column names from the database..I had already specified header text for the gridview.. i had already selected two column names 'name' and 'number' from a database table, then I had created two columns for the gridview( with header text's name and number)..Now i want to select the all the data from columns 'name' and 'number'..and then fill the respective columns.
I am wondering what is the best way to do this. Here is my observation:
1. If a GridView is assigned a datasource at design time, the header row's text can be retrieved with ((DataControlField)GridView.Columns[index]).HeaderText.
2. If a GridView is assigned a datasource at run time by code-behind, the header row's text can be retrieved with GridView.HeaderRow.Cells[index].Text.
Is there a way to do it without trying one, if not working, then the other of the aforementioned methods.
I have a GridView (inside an update panel) that has header text that changes based on some user profile information. I set the header text in the Page_Load function of the page - that works fine. The problem is that when I change to the page number of the GridView, the header text is not redrawn. I am handling the OnPageChanging event to try to update the header text but nothing is happening. I've attached the relevant code.
I have my data table generated dynamically binded to grid view. (Autogeneratecolumns true)
in my UI its displaying the column headers.
am not able to access it by grdname.HeaderRow.Cells[0].Text
am not able to get the names from the columns also.
since am binding the columns dynamically i am not able to get access to all the columns
and am able to get only 2 columns which i have mentioned in my aspx which are the command buttons edit and delete.
am trying to access all these in Gridview_RowCommand event. need to get the value in the (dynamic) column named Id for the row on which the edit or delete button is clicked. since it doesnt have a header am unable to access it bcoz i dont know the index of the cell too..
I have a merged column of firstname and lastname by "Select firstname + lastname from table" but when it appears in the gridview the header text of the column is "Expr1000". How can I change the header text of that merged column?, and I want to change its text into "NAME".
I want if the header of a particular column contains a word "S", the header and row turns red. I used following code to make header red and it works fine. How to make it such that the rows also turn red if condition is met ? I cannot hardcode in columns since the Gridview is autogenerate colums as data structure keeps changing.
Protected Sub GridView1_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)Dim HeaderRow As GridViewRow = GridView1.HeaderRowFor Each c As TableCell In HeaderRow.CellsIf c.Text.EndsWith("S") Then c.BackColor = Drawing.Color.OrangeRed End If Next End Sub
I have the grid view with boundfield with four columns. I created the text box when gridview row created event. I need to filter the data the gridview using the textbox and need to know the how to generate event for textbox.
