How are you adding them ? You should really add them by typing, not by drag and drop. You're obviously doing somethign wrong.

I am not in debug mode.. but by typing the html element ,

<asp:button id="button1" visible="True" text="Button" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

i notice that only the html controls can work

just that asp controls cannot.

You need to define 'work' Right now, I feel pretty sure you're doing somethign wrong, but are not explaining yourself well enough for me to know what it is

i got it to work but the result isnt what i was looking for. Meaning the asp controls did appear by typing in html. but it gives a fix location and i am unable to move it around at all.

I remember last week i was able to drag the control directly off the toolbox to the webform.aspx but now i cant.

Welcome to web development. If you do it in the designer, you can drag them about and it will generate css for you. It's far better not to do this, tho, the css that gets generated is not pretty, from memory.

Write css to position your controls.

Hi
I want to do some real time debugging on my development machine(WinXP). I wrote an simple ASP.Net application using Vs2005.net in which the default page is p6count.aspx. None of the machine in my office can access this page. Can any body tell me what settings i need to do to access this page from any other machine within my office ?

I am able to ping my machine from all other machine in my offcie.

VS 2005 creates asp.net project and runs by default inside Cassini not your web server. When you run you application locally, you will see something like http://localhost/<port number="">/p6count.aspx. That is where Cassini serving up your application

what you need to access the page from different machine is http://<your machine="" name="">/<port number="">/p6count.aspx

What is the Cassini BTW? The problem was with the winXP firewall. I made it off now i can access the p6count.aspx page.

Thanks any way for your time.

Cassini is a *hidden* web server. It is used by Visual studio 2005 to host you development applications. Prior to VS 2005 Microsoft used to create the actual web applications inside IIS. With 2005 it does not get created until you are ready to publish it.

Here is more info on Cassisni. ^

checkbox

I want to insert checkbox data into the database if the checkbox is checked. If the checkbox is not checked then don't insert the checkbox data. Mt code isn't working. Here is the code:

myCommand.Parameters.Add("Department", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Department<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("Quality", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Quality<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("Interpersonal", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Interpersonal<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("Timelines", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Timelines<br />
      If CheckBox1.Checked Then<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("NA", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = NA<br />
      End If<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("Comment", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Comment<br />
      myCommand.Parameters.Add("Domain_Login", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = UserName<br />
      myCommand.Connection = myConnection<br />
      myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()

is NA an optional parameter in your proc ? What does 'not working' mean ? Does it blow up ? Does it give an unexpected result ? Does it never work out that checkbox1 is checked ?

BTW, for you to put this code in your presentation layer is bad design. I guess the fact that you have a checkbox1 means this is not production code, but still, it's better to form good habits than bad.

Rendering a GridView Control in a Sharepoint WebPart

23-Jun-08 5:46

I am trying to create a Sharepoint web part that will consist of a gridview control. I cannot see any errors when debugging, and no exceptions (apparently) are thrown.

protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
writer.Write("<table border=\"0\" width = \"100%\"><tr><th>Test Web Part</th></tr><tr><td>");
gv_JobData.RenderControl(writer);
writer.Write("</td></tr><tr><td>");
lbl_Test.RenderControl(writer);
writer.Write("</td></tr></table>");

}

I get the table with it's title, and the test label, but absolutely nothing for the gridview. Confused | :confused:

As I am getting no errors or exceptions, I'm a bit stuck. Any suggestions as to how to find out why the gridviews RenderControl method is called happily, but nothing gets rendered?

Data sources and master pages

I moved all of my shared dses onto my master page, but have since discovered that by doing so in the designer the GridViews on my other pages (web content form) can't see them. Everything works fine at runtime though.

Is there a more graceful workaround at design time than copy/pasting the data source to refresh the schema, etc?

Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

Well, I guess what I need to ask is, why are you using hte designer, and why are you using the designer as a place to store things that have nothing to do with the UI ?

Sizing of GridView Based UserControl

I have a UserControl based on a GridView. In a table of four columns, I have two instances of this user control, in columns 2 and four. Regardless of how I specifiy my table sizing (15%, 25%, 15%, 25%), or absolute sizing, the user controls still expand to the size of the text in the widest row in the GridView.

What is the proper way to constrain the size of my u.c., and its contained GridView, to its container, a TD element.

If length of the text is your problem then you can consider Text Wrapping in that place.

The GridView doesn't respect any attempts to fix its column size. Eventually I went with a table and a Repeater.

Hi Brady,
So you have a repeater and inside you have Table defined as template right?
Therfore, in table cell(i.e in <TD> of template table inside repeater) you must set text wrapping property to true. Effecttively the goal is "the template table should be able to wrap your text if text lenght more than cell width"

Thanks,
Arindam D Tewary

Thanks, but it works as expected in the repeater. It's the GridView I have problems with.

Hello Parwej...

Thanks for ur response...

I was following the same article. However, the author says "Assuming the existence of my ASP.NET ContextMenu control, let's see how to use it to add one or more context menus to an ASP.NET page". What does he mean here....

I am hardly 4 months old in .net and while trying to create a treeview I had to download certain dll's etc to get it to work in VS2003...similarly is there anny such things to be downloaded or installed and then continue.... everything seems very confusing to me at present.... Hope U will understand my state....

Thanks and Regards,
Reena

The VS2003 does not support the Treeview so that you need some third party component to do this.

I found one more URL please through this it might be help you:
http://www.cool-tips.net/tree1.aspx[^]
Why you are not using the VS2005 ? That will solve your every problems.

Actually problem is that i do not have VS2003 so i can not do so R&D with this problem.

Let me know if you further help.
