Gridview - empty control data when saving?

Hi guys,
I'm using a gridview to do some inline editing. The data binds okay,
its goes into edit mode and cancel okay. I'm using my own custom
commandName, "save", and it picks this up okay. Don't want to use the
built in "update" command. Trouble is when I go to access the form
fields (textboxes etc), there isn't any data there (ie text in the
textbox), I can access them though, I guess I'm missing an event
somewhere.

I've stripped out the necessary bits of code that i've used and added
it below.

Any ideas most appreciated, driving me nuts.
Regards.

Seems JQuery is causing some kind of conflict, I have my gridview in a
modal "window" (ie, div), a bunch of stuff is injected into the DOM
when it finds the div id containing my grid - i remove the call to do
this and it works fine

Now I have a different problem...

Sorted.

Seems jquery UI dialog will tear the div containing my gridview out
from where it was in the DOM and inject it directly onto the BODY tag.
So, because it's outside of the FORM tag, the fields weren't getting
posted during postback

Was able to get around this by editing the jquery library itself and
appending the dialog to the form id "aspnetForm ".
Changed .appendTo(docum ent.body) to .appendTo('#asp netForm')

Seems to work so far :-)

Hello, Does anyone have an idea on how I can filter the data in the gridview control that was returned by an sql query? I have a gridview that works fine when I populate it with data. Now I want to look at that data and filter it based on what is in it. I know that this could have been done with data sets and data views in asp.net 1.1 but how is this done now in asp.net 2.0?

I ran into a situation this morning where the RowUpdating event of a GridView kept insisting there were no entries in either the OldValues or NewValues dictionaries.

HI all, I'm returning a dataset to a gridview control. When the gridview asp.net control is populated from the returning dataset some of the cells remain empty. This is expected as some data in the dataset is empty. The cells that are empty, in the gridview control, I would like to have the value of 0 (zero) inserted. Is there a default cell value property or something similar for the asp.net gridview control. So if no data is...

I am using a GridView to display and edit rows of data. I am having problems with one of my GridViews that has a Calendar control in it. If the data coming back from the DB doesn't have a date for this field, I get a 'Specified Cast is Invalid' message when the empty string is being bound to the SelectedValue of the Calendar control. That makes sense. What I need to do (I think), is somehow intercept the process so that if I have a DB...

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,...
