Greetings. Hopefully someone will be able to untie this Gordian Knot I
have found myself bound up in.
I am trying to add a submit button dynamically to a PlaceHolder. This
button will help update a particular entry in a database.
The button is added as thus:
Sub LoadIntro()
...additional content that is dynamically loaded as well: a preview
of the DB contents followed by a form that is pre-filled from the DB...
Dim submit as Button = New Button()
AddHandler submit.Click, AddressOf UpdateIntro
submit.id = "submit"
submit.Text = "Update Intro"
content.Control s.Add(submit)
End Sub
And the event handler is set up like this:
Sub UpdateIntro(sen der As Object, e As EventArgs)
Dim myConn as New
OleDbConnection (ConfigurationS ettings.AppSett ings("strConn") )
Dim myCmd as New OleDbCommand("U PDATE tblIntro SET
[Comment]=@Comment", myConn)
myConn.Open()
myCmd.CommandTy pe = CommandType.Tex t
myCmd.Parameter s.Add("@Comment ", OleDbType.LongV arWChar).Value =
RepChar(Request .Form("IntroCom ment"))
myCmd.ExecuteNo nQuery()
myConn.Close()
LoadIntro()
End Sub
The problem is that this doesn't work!!! The UpdateIntro sub simply
doesn't get fired!!
I'm pulling my hair out here, as I have also removed the AddHandler to
try this:
Private Sub UpdateIntro(ByV al sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Handles submit.Click
But it also throws an error! I know that adding
submit.onClick= "UpdateIntr o" will also throw an error, but I simply
don't know what else to do or try!
TIA

Save yourself a whole load of heartache and don't even try to add the button
dynamically - just set its Visible property to true or false as required...

Not so easy. You see, I am trying to make an admin interface more
efficient and flexible by programatically adding content as required. If
I can solve this one single problem, I can conceivably reduce the file
size (or, in other words, the amount of code) of the admin interface by
as much as 30%.

Are you trying to click the button on the first page load or after a
postback? You have to re-create all dynamically added controls on every
postback.

Hmm - I'd rethink your app design, if I were you...
One thing you need to watch out for is complexity being built IN because you
wanted to make the interface more efficient. I find this to be a major issue
if you have too many controls to deal with. The whole thing gets to complex
to manage.
Split your functionality into logical managable units and design your UI
acordingly. Remember, the user does not know intimately how your system
works, this can lead to assumptions of ease of use by the designer which
ultimately result in user confusion.

Dynamically loading controls can be quite a challenge. All the
controls that were added to the page dynamically most be loaded again
in the Init() event (either overriding OnInit or adding a handler to
Page.Init). The controls must be added by the Init event to the
IPostBackDataHa ndler and IPostBackEventH andler can work properly.
These are setup between the Init and Load event, and if the control
isn't there then it "misses the boat". The page remembers which events
need to fired during this process and then fires them after the Load
event.
If you have a series of controls you want to show/hide, group them
together into user controls (ascx files). Then, when you add them
dynamically, register a hidden field with the name of the skin file (or
files) you added. This information will be available to you when you
postback, and you can look at the values in the Init event and load the
appropriate user control in time for the page events to fire correctly.

When I tried your method, I got the contents of LoadIntro() appearing

And when I replace your "private sub" with a normal one, LoadIntro()
appears only once on the page. But submitting the form still doesn't
update the DB, and gives me a blank page in response.
Stranger and stranger!
