Display Text Without Using Textbox But Retain Formatting?
Jul 30, 2010
I have a section that allows used to log in, enter a news story, save it.
The idea is that then, following this, a part of the website shall display the news story.
At the moment I am using textbox, saving as a varchar field in a sql database, then load it back up and display but the text box frame remains, with the slide box on the right, even when not visible.
I am using smtp to sent an email. The problem is that I want to format the body text, like I want some text to display as bold, some as subscript or superscript. I tried to bold the body text using <b>Text</b> like: string body="This is a <b> Test </b> mail"; But it is not working, can any 1 tell me how to format the body format of email.
I have a series of textboxes on a FormView. There is a textbox for entering a percent for a deposit amount and next to that a corresponding textbox for entering a dollar value for a deposit amount. There are 3 sets of these.
If a user changes a percent textbox, I update the dollar value textbox based on the percent times the project's total cost. If a user changes the dollar value textbox, the percent textbox gets updated as a percent of that dollar amount divided by the project's total cost.
I have the percent textboxes formatted as "{0:0%}" and the dollar value textboxes as "{0:C}".
When a user types into the textbox, the formatting goes away and we get raw numbers but I don't want those raw numbers to remain as such after they tab or click out of the field. I added a TextChanged event to reset the formatting. This works fine on reformatting the percent textbox but the currency one remains as just a raw numeric value.
Here is the markup (ignore the lack of validation for numeric input only...it will be added):
I need to DISPLAY the text in an asp textbox as upper case, regardless of whether the users caps lock is on or not - is there some property or method I can use? I am converting the text using the .ToUpper method on submitting to the database anyway, but I have been asked to also DISPLAY it in upper case before that when first being typed.
I want to display Textbox and its Id in AutoComplete.Lets say If i select Po in textbox i have to get 1!postbox in the auto complete.Here 1 is id of postbox text.
In my project I am displaying word file in textbox. While users reading their data in textbox(uploaded as word)some unformatted fonts that is table in word coming like some type of fonts how to overcome this.
I am having a gridview with dropdownlist and textbox controls.
I am generating a value in the textbox2 depending on the textbox1 value using the javascript in every row of gridview. In onblur() function of textbox2, I am disabling the textbox2.
Before textboxes, I am having dropdownlist's in every row of gridview. when I disable the textbox2 in the first row and select the value of dropdownlist in the second row, the value of textbox2 in first row is not visible.
I tried by using the viewstate but I am unable to retain the value.
In this section, I am trying to manually add in tabs and line spaces so the string is formatted when displayed via the pre tag. But this does not work.
I don't know how to get spaces, tabs, carriage returns into that string which are recognizable by the pre tag, as environment.newline and/or vbtab make no difference.
ORIGINAL QUESTION:
Is it possible to display HTML as text on your page in a formatted manner? For example, it should contain white spaces, tabs etc etc for readability purposes:
From another question, I have learned how to display HTML as text as follows:
In asp.net mvc when validation fails error message is disaplayed on same view, values entered by user are lost . Also all the drop down list items needs to be passed again in the viewData. Selected values in the drop down list again reset. How to display same view again with failed validation message.
I have a calculation that takes place utilizing the TimeSpan.FromTicks method, the result is stored in a TimeSpan object. The calculation itself is working correctly, but I'd like to format the result a bit nicer than it is and I can't figure out how to format a TimeSpan.
The result from the TimeSpan is:
00:00:04.6153846
I'd like to remove any preceding zero's and round up to the second decimal place, such as:
4.62
Does anyone know how I might be able to accomplish this? I can't seem to find a .NET 'built in' solution.
I need users to be able to enter text in a webform with some basic formatting options and then generate a report showing the formatted text.The support for HTML is horrible and entering a simple bulletlist doesn't even show properly in the report.Right now i'm using a textarea with tinyMCE but that's because i don't know what else to use.Is there a known best-practice for showing formatted text in a Crystal Report?EditI just need to show a report with a bunch of text and icons. Users need to be able to save it to PDF. I doesn't even have to be Crystal Reports but it's what i have been using and worked so far. Until i needed to show formatted text.I wish for another solution that comes with a designer and let's me bind against a DataSet.
I have a textbox labeled BudgetUsed with the following Color expression: =IIF(ReportItems!BudgetUsed.Value > 1 or ReportItems!BudgetUsed="Div/0","Red","Black") When I display the report, even when the value meets 1 of the criteria in my IIF statement, it still shows up as Black when it should be Red.
If I take out one of the criteria from my original expression, and change it to:
The values in the BudgetUsed textbox display correctly in Red. Why can't I use the 2 criteria together using the OR operator? When used alone, both work, so I don't think it's a syntax issue.
I am having text formatting problem with Outlook 2007 since it is taking different rendering engine i.e word 2007. In our application, we are sending mails to different clients who have Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007. We have used CSS in our application for formatting.
1. Since I have created Tables and given width in Percentage to every <TD> but while rendering in outlook 2007, every table taking different widths depending on the no. of the columns. Due to this reason, formatting is getting distored. Outlook 2003 shows proper output.
2. In our aspx page, I have created DIV tag with Style attributes having Property as Display:none. But in Outlook 2007, DIV tag is visible. Due to this, unwanted Warning messages also getting displayed in the outlook 2007.
I want to put some kind of text editor on my website which allows the user to manipulate the formatting of text. I would also like it to be possible for a user to copy/paste text from an existing webpage and it keep the formatting i.e. markup tags, font weight, bullet points. I just dont know hoe to go about this but the information must be there as when you copy from a web page into ms Word it keeps the format.
