Re: Access parent page controls from Iframe

AFAIK, you can't access the control of parent page from Code-behind. So, you have to use Javascript for accessing the parent page. After that, you have to look a tick to access this client-side value from Code-behind..

For example: There are one textbox called Textbox1 and IFRAME in Default.aspx. There is another page called Default2.aspx which suppose to be shown in IFRAME of Default.aspx page. We add one button called Button1 in Default2.aspx (ChildPage). We wanna get the value of Textbox1 that is placed in Default.aspx (parent page) from Default2.aspx (childpage).

So, we have to write the following ocde in Form_load event of default2.aspx.

Button1.Attributes.Add ("onclick", "alert(top.document.getElementById('TextBox1').value);");

Yeah. I know that it's not exactly what you want. But the idea is that you have to get the value of controls of the parent page by using Javascript. Then, try to find the way to access the those values from Code-behind. (Using Server-side hidden field is one of the communication between client-side script and server-side script. )

Hope it helps.

You can do it with javascript.

For example:
add the following code on the child page

<br />
		<script language="javascript"><br />
		function Test()<br />
		{<br />
			var parentTextBox = parent.document.getElementById("TextBox1");<br />
//TextBox1 is the ID of TextBox on ParentPage.<br />
			<br />
			alert(parentTextBox.value);<br />
		}<br />
		</script><br />

Delete Empty row from Gridview

Hi,

I have a Gridview and one button ADD which will insert new row to Gridview and is outside of Gridview. Gridview contain one button DELETE column which is used to delete that row from gridview.

When the Delete button is clicked I want to delete that row For this I am doing like this: Where ID is the unique column in Gridview.

private DataRow FindRowByID(string id)

{

DataTable dt = (DataTable)Session["dt"];

DataRow[] rows = dt.Select("ID = " + id.ToString());

return rows[0];

}

Gridview_RowCommand()

{

if (e.CommandName == "RemovePartner")

{

string ind = e.CommandArgument.ToString();

FindRowByID.Delete(ind);

}

}

This is working fine when the inserted row ha ID value. If the user add a new row but did not enter any value into ID column and clicked on Delete then ID contain null value then how to delete that newly inserted row from Gridview.

Thanks

why not use Null Value as ID for deleting? Smile | :)

In our case, we don't allow the user to enter the ID. If the user enter new row then we generate the new ID (maybe the count of rows) for that new row. We use that id when we wanna delete the row..

Retaining viewstate of dynamic controls

Hi,
I am currently building aproject management application. My current issue lies with a dynamic table which refreshes each time i choose a different project (from a dropdown). I used to create my controls (in the dynamic table) on PageLoad. This worked fine but however, the viewstate was retained when i chose another project eventhough i tried almost everything from EnableViewstate = false to many others...

So, the quick fix was to actually create the dynamic controls in the "selectedIndexChanged" event of the project dropDown. This worked great. However, i am having a problem to updated data in one of these dynamic textboxes. If i change a value in the dynamic texbox and then click on "Save" button, i lose the viewstate of this textbox and it reverts to its previous value. Moreover, i do have dynamics dropdowns in the same table and they work fine, passing the changes.

Can you please help me fix that out?

Thanks beforehand dear friends. OMG | :OMG:

whenever a control is added through controls.add() function, it goes through init,load and prerender. Add the dynamic textbox to the table or page before you set the property. this will enable the textbox to participate in the viewstate.

Dim txtBox As New TextBox
Table.Controls.Add(txtBox)
txtBox.Text = "ABCDE"

Updating gridview after changes to database

Hi all,

I have a gridview with select, that then loads my detailsview, the detailsview I use to create new entries, update existing and delete. All works but the gridview does not get refreshed.

The gridview uses a sqldatasource to get populated, and then the detailsview uses another sqldatasource to populate according to the gridview's selectedDataKey, the thing is that the second sqldatasource updates the database so the first sqldatasource does not reflect the changes, how do I get the first sqldatasource to reload, do I need to reload the entire page again or is there a better way of doing it?

Thanks in advance

Usually, if you do a post back the select method should get called again. You may have a caching issue. In my use of gridviews, I often cache the select results, so I don't have to call sql every time the user does a next or previous page click. The down side is you have to expire the cache when things get updated so the gridview will show the updated data. If you have not setup caching then there is some other problem.

Hope that helps.

After you make changes call DataBind() method of GridView1.

Example

//Do changes here as insert,update or delete<br />
GridView1.DataBind();

Hi Folks,

In my project i need to display the various menu's for different type of user also that we have using treeview for menu.the project developed in the VS 2003 and now we are migrating it to VS 2005 project. so we decided to use ASP .net Tree view control.

This is my code:
<asp:TreeView ID="TreeView1" runat="server" ImageSet="Arrows" Style="z-index: 102;
left: 24px; top: 32px; position: absolute;" Height="72px" Width="72px">

<ParentNodeStyle Font-Bold="False" />
<HoverNodeStyle Font-Underline="True" ForeColor="#5555DD"/>
<SelectedNodeStyle Font-Underline="True" ForeColor="#5555DD" HorizontalPadding="0px"
VerticalPadding="0px"/>
<Nodes>
<asp:TreeNode ShowCheckBox="False" Text="Reports" Value="Room Actions" Expanded="false"> </asp:TreeNode>
</Nodes>
</asp:TreeView>

It will throw an error:

inner Exception :
{"Using TreeView.HoverStyle requires Page.Header to be non-null (e.g. <head runat=\"server\" />)."}

outer Exception:
{"Error executing child request for Guest.aspx."}

This page is call by Server.Transfer method.

If you faced like this problem or if you have a solution for this please respond me.
