validating dynamically created radio buttons using Response.write

satyabhaskar

hi all,
In my web page i have created radio buttons dynamically on to the page .....following is my code

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
         string Course, Semester, Section;

    int rowsCount;

                catch (SqlException er)

                {

                    Response.Write(er.Message);

                }

                finally

                {

                    objCon.Close();

                }

            }

        }

        catch (Exception er)

        {

            Response.Write(er.Message);

        }

    }

And now i want to validate the page before it get submited...i want the user to check radio buttons in each row.. i validated using javascript as follows

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

<!--
 
function Save() 

{

    var countId=getElementByName('hidCount');

    var Count=countId.value;

    var check='check';

    for(i=0;i<count;i++)

    {

        var grade[i]=getElementByName('grade'+i);

        for(j=0;j<grade[j].length;i++)

        {

            if(grade[j].checked==true)

            {

                check=grade[i].value();

            }

         }

         if(check=='check')

         {

            alert('PLZ Grade The Subject');

            return false;

         }           

         else

            return true;

     }

}

i cold not able to validate becoz i could not get the the value of hidden variable and radio button....can any one plz solve by problem...

The first thing I'm going to say is that Response.Write should not be used in your C# code.

Why would I say such a thing?

Glad you asked, it writes the content "somewhere" in the output content stream.

What on earth does that mean?

Well it means that when you use Response.Write(), the string is written anywhere in the content stream sent to the browser. This usually results in the content being placed somewhere before the <html> tag, or somewhere between the <head> and <body> tags....

If you don't believe me, run your application, right click on it and click "view code"...

Do you see it?

Your HTML isn't valid is it?

Response.Write should only be called from the asp code.
Not used in the C# code.

This is probably why you're having problems.

I strongly recommend you use ASP.NET controls since you are developing an ASP.NET application.

In your case, I would recommend looking up the RadioButtonList Control, Repeaters .....and Labels

Hi satyabhaskar,

frinvale sir is right you can use response.write.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

Page.Form.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(strFeedBackDetails));

insted this code you can write this way

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

Response.Write(strFeedBackDetails);

but if you want to check validation you have to make function in javascript;
whenever you find control in javascript you use this line

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 document.getElementByName 

//(or)

document.getElemenetById

@Frinavale
hi boss...
yes boss ur right.... im sorry the title which i displayed is wrong. actually i did not used response.write... i find the same fault which u said and i changed my code accordingly.... i used

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

Page.Form.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(strFeedBackDetails));

and nw my problem is i couldnt get the control's id when iam validating them client side using java script.........i don't need to validate all the controls its enough if i can validate radio buttons in each row....

satyabhaskar

hey boss i got the solution.... just want to share..... my code is as follows...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

function valid(e)

{

    for(var i=0;i<e.length;i++)

    {

        if(e[i].type=='radio')

        {

            var r=e[e[i].name], check=true;

            for(var j=0;j<r.length;j++)

            {

                if(r[j].checked)

                    check=false;

            }

            if(check)

            {

                alert('Please Grade All The Subjects');

                return false;

            }

            else

             return true;

        }

    }

}

</script>

</head>

<body>

    <form id="form1" method="post" name="form1" runat="server" onsubmit="return valid(this.elements)" >

    </form>

</body>

</html>

I'm glad you found your solution :)

For your information, the reason why you couldn't get the control's ID for validation using JavaScript is because Literal Controls just print pure text. This text does not have an ID associated with it...

If you had used a Label, your text would have been rendered in <span> tags, which has an ID that will let you access it with JavaScript.

In your case, you want to validate a RadioButtonList, which has an ID...

Your solution works fine for your purposes though: loop through all of the elements in the page and find a Radio Button List....then validate.
