Forms Data Controls :: Populate A Dropdown List With Web.config?

Feb 18, 2010

I normally have a function to populate my dropdown list with the database values.

How can I populate a dropdown list so the values are stored in the web config?

The only problem is that the list would need to store two values, the text value of the combo, and the data value.

Forms Data Controls :: Populate Dropdown List With Special Character

Nov 1, 2010

Using a gridView to read some data from a SQL database. The user can select a record in the gridview. On the SelectedIndexChanged property I populate this to a couple of text boxes & drop down list; txtCountry,ddlProvince,ddlCity.

I have special characters in France ( accent marks) and when I populate it to the drop down list it fails giving out the error message "SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items".

Example of items that I try to populate are as follows. ( separated by commas) ÃŽLE-DE-FRANCE , PROVENCE-ALPES-CÔTE D'AZUR , RHÔNE-ALPES, DRÔME,ISÈRE ........ When I looked in the drop down lists for Province and Cities I see those Provinces there in the item list. When I debug line by line the word ÃŽLE-DE-FRANCE comes out like ÎLE-DE-FRANCE which is not there in the drop down list. Got to know the ÃŽ is typed by pressing down ALT+206 and lloks like this is what is coming in at the start of the string above.

Templates - Populate List Items In Dropdown List From Placeholder?

Feb 24, 2010

I'm designing my own custom control that contains a .NET dropdownlist. What I'm wondering is if it is possible to populate my dropdownlist with listitems placed in a placeholder? For example:

<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlFilter" runat="server" >
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="ListItemPlaceholder" runat="server"/>
</asp:DropDownList>

This doesn't work because the DropDownList control only allows ListItems as child controls. But, I want to do something similar to this so when the user includes my control on a page, they can do something like this:

<mytag:MyControl Mode="DropDown" runat="server">
<ListItemTemplate>
<asp:ListItem Text="C" Value="c"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="E" Value="e"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="B" Value="b"></asp:ListItem>
</ListItemTemplate>
</myTag:MyControl>

I know I can do this by dynamically adding the ListItems in the page code behind, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.

Web Forms :: Populate Textbox Using SQL Database Query / Depending On A Dropdown List Selection

Apr 8, 2010

I would like to alter the query that is run, depending on the selection made by the user in a drop down list on the same page. Would this best be done using a partial page update (AJAX)? Ideally it would be great to have the textbox result change quickly once the drop-down list value has changed, without a full page postback. I would like to change the SQL query to a completely different query if the user selects an option different to the default (page_load value) in the drop-down list. I would then like the newly retrieved result to be displayed in the textbox as before.

My current VB function looks like this:

I have a dropdown list with the names of the months listed in it. These names are stored as int values but converted to string for display purpose. I also have a RadDatePicker control that will allow the user to select a specific date to overwrite the default date. The default date in the textbox needs to be set to the last day of the month selected (i.e. May 2010 would default to 05/31/2010).

Forms Data Controls :: Two Dropdown Lists That Populate Gridview?

Jul 22, 2010

I have 2 drop downlists 1 gets the User hits my sql database and pulls back all my users in the database. I have post back on. The second drop down brings back all the account numbers for the user that is selected in the first drop downlist I have that post back on also.

My gridview then uses those 2 dropdownlists to populate for that user and that account number selected.

Now for the problem.

User Albert is in the drop down when page is loaded because its sorts by name the first account number for albert is in the 2nd drop down and the gridview works on page load for albert and account number 1 i can select account number 2 and the gridview changes.

I then switch user to Bill and it populates the 2nd drop down with Bill's account numbers however my gridview at this point is still showing alberts account information. I have to take drop down 2 and select another account say account 2 then my gridview displays bill's account 2 information i can then switch back to account 1 for bill and see that account information.

What do I need to do so that my gridview will populate when the first dropdown is changed to match the 2 new values?

Here is my code
