I do alot of browsing around to sights that have the same (or similar) subject focus, then I make notes on what I like, what I don't like... I use those notes in my design.

Well,
You can get inspiration from anywhere but the best is other websites. There are so many ways to design a website. For example, look at yahoo, it is one ugly website...but it functionality is one of the best because you can easly navigate through it find what you need and when you come back to the website weeks..months...later you dont have to re-learn it. Other websites are all flash, but have no content. I am sure there are numerous books that you can find that will help, search on web design, user interface and human interface.

Getting text of textbox in datagrid

Mazdak10-Oct-02 5:07

Mazdak

10-Oct-02 5:07

I have a datagrid with this definition:

<asp:DataGrid id="CatGrid" runat="server" CssClass="Grid_General" HeaderStyle-CssClass="Grid_Header" ItemStyle-CssClass="Grid_Item" AlternatingItemStyle-CssClass="Grid_AlternatingItem" AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyField="CategoryID" OnEditCommand="CatGrid_Edit" OnCancelCommand="CatGrid_CancelEdit" OnUpdateCommand="CatGrid_Update" OnDeleteCommand="CatGrid_Delete" OnSortCommand="CatGrid_Sort" Width="100%">
<Columns>
<asp:EditCommandColumn ItemStyle-Width="25px" EditText="<img border=0 Alt='Edit this category' src=./Images/Edit.gif>" CancelText="<img border=0 src=./Images/Cancel.gif>" UpdateText="<img border=0 src=./Images/OK.gif>" />
<asp:ButtonColumn ItemStyle-Width="25px" Text="<img border=0 Alt='Delete this category' src=./Images/Delete.gif>" CommandName="delete" />
<asp:BoundColumn HeaderText="ID" HeaderStyle-Font-Bold="True" ItemStyle-Width="30px" DataField="CategoryID" ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="CategoryID" />
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Name" HeaderStyle-Font-Bold="True" SortExpression="Name" ItemStyle-Width="150px">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %>' ID="Label1" />
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="EditCatName" runat="server" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name") %>' CssClass="TextBox" Width="150px" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator Id="ValidateEditName" runat="server" ControlToValidate="EditCatName" Display="dynamic">* Name is required</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
.
.
.
</Columns>
</asp:DataGrid>

When user press on first field of first column,that row goes in edited mode and text box appear for that
row,then after he/she change the text there DataGrid1_Update event occur,in that event I put this code:

string strCol2 = ((TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("EditCatName")).Text;

but when I debug the program,the text is not updated and show the previous text.Any idea?

Re: Getting text of textbox in datagrid

I have found the same problem and the solution is to create a TextBox variable, then call the Text function. You can not just cast the control, dont know why. Try:

<br />
TextBox ctrlTextBox = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("EditCatName");<br />
string strCol2 = ctrlText.Text.ToString();<br />

You might also wanna double check that FindControl returns a valid control.

Do you know which column you are in? Because you can get it by the following since you are in the UpdateCommand:

<br />
int nColumn = ...;<br />
int nIndex = this.MyDataGrid.EditItemIndex;<br />
TextBox ctrlTextBox = (TextBox)this.MyDataGrid.Items[nIndex].Cells[nColumn].Controls[0]; //0 assumes that the only control in the cell is the text box<br />
string strCol2 = ctrlText.Text.ToString();<br />

Hope this helps

Hello,

Is there any thing available for tab control on client side using jabascript so that I can move from one page to another using the tab controls without going back to the web server for each tab page.

Thanks

You do it the same way you did it in ASP. Remember alert has nothing to do with ASP, it is a JavaScript method.

This question caught my eye....

How can you display a messagebox on the clientside in ASP.NET using C#?

I have web page (mypage.aspx and mypage.aspx.cs) with a data grid, when the user tiggers the update command a message is sent to the update function. How can a make a messagebox pop up?

ASP.NET is a serverside technology. You can't use it to popup a message box on the client side. You can only control how the form is rendered tothe browser using C# or VB.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
