Viewstate enabled and set, but not all data is being stored in thepage

I have a custom web control, similar to a datagrid. The grid can have a
button that the user clicks to select the row. I use a custom button
with a data field that is stored in the Viewstate. So far, this is
working fine.

If I add another button to the row in exactly the same manner, the
Viewstate for that button is not saved. I turned on the Trace for the
page and it shows first button containing 56 bytes of Viewstate, but the
second button shows zero.

I debugged through the creation of the grid. All components have
EnabledViewStat e = true. I checked the Viewstate bag before the page is
posted and all buttons contained the "ButtonData " object. It appears
that when the page is rendered, the viewstate object is not picking up
the second button.

Is there some tool that can be used to pull the Viewstate string apart?

Thanks,
Keith

Keith,

Here's an MSDN article w/ code that can be used to parse a view state string:

Hope this helps.

Is there any overhead associated with having viewstate enabled but nothing is being stored in the viewstate? I have an aspx page that uses regular HTML, i.e. <input type=submit value=submit>, and viewstate is enabled in the web.config file of my application. Just curious if this would cause any unnecessary processing between post backs to the web server. Thanks, Natalie

I have a page that uses an in-place editable DataGrid that supports sorting and paging. EnableViewState is turned ON. At the top of the page are several search fields that allow the user to filter the results in the grid. Say you filter the grid for records that have a certain condition set to "NO" (in this case a checkbox). In this scenario the search returns one result. If I then check the checkbox ("YES") and save it, I now get my message...

I have a page that works fine. I am trying to optimize the page by overriding some of the Information that is being saved in the hidden VIEWSTATE. If I make the properties of the dropdown False for ViewState and True for AutoPostBack, it does reload the page but does not call the SelectedIndexChanged event. If I put the ViewState to True then it is called. Does this mean that I cannot get that event and deal with it in better code

I have created a server control that reads data from an xml file and renders either a datagrid of entries from a database or group of form controls to allow editing of an individual entry from the same database. The Xml defines how the datagrid and edit form looks and what fields each displays. The edit form display is perfect but I am having some problems with the datagrid list display. The datagrid has sorting and pagination enabled and...

I have a CompositeControl with two types of properties: 1.) Mapped Properties that map directly to a child control's properties (ex.: this.TextboxText = m_txt.Text). These properties are handled by their underlying classes (such as the TextBox control), and are not persisted by me. 2.) Unique Properties that don't map directly and are persisted in ViewState (ex.: this.LabelPosition, which specifies where on the form the label should be...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
