Custom User Control problem

Hi, I have created a custom user control that includes a dynamically
created drop down list populated with data from a database.

The control class contains a BindList routine that is used to populate
the dropdownlist. This function works fine and I call it from within
the CreateChildCont rols() routine.

I also have another routine which allows a user to delete an item from
the list by clicking on a Delete button (Again created dynamically
within the CreateChildCont rols() routine)

My problem is that while an item is deleted from the database (A user
selects an item from the dropdownlist and presses the delete button)
when the page is shown again the deleted item still appears in the
drop list even though the item no longer exists in the database.

I have set the enableViewState property of the dropdownlist to false
and have tried clearing the dropdownlists items before calling the
BindData function but the deleted item still appears.

I am pretty sure that the problem occurs because of the way the
CreateChildCOnt rols routine is called but can't seem to nail it :)

Thanks in advance
Mark

Hello all, I've created a custom control that draws a monthly schedule (using the Draw function in C#). Basically it draws 31 boxes and writes the day number in every box. This works great. But I now want to show a different tooltip for every day. For now I found out that I can add a tooltip for the entire custom control

Background: When I create a ASP.NET control (User or custom), it often requires security to be set for certain functionality with the control. For example, a news release user control that is comprised of a DataGrid may have separate permissions for adding, deleting and updating a news item. Problem Up until now, I have been implementing security directly inside the control. I will test directly against the security model to see if...

I've created a custom control (ascx) which contains a tree view, a drop down list, and a listbox. The custom control is included in a web form and at runtime, won't compile (I get the "inaccessible due to its protection level" error) because the NodePopulate event of the treeview is set to private. So I changed it to "protected" and the app compiles fine and runs and properly reacts to the event. Good. The problem is inside that...

Hi Everyone. It has been a long time since my last post. Nevertheless, I have built a custom server control that allows a user to edit text, bolding, italics strike though table insertion and manipulation etc etc. The control works perfectly when placed outside a templated control but when placed in, for instance, a datagrid EditItemTemplate, I get the following error on the DataBind Method: the dreaded "Object not set to a referance"...

I want to create a custom control that encapsulates a Button & a TextBox. When the Button is clicked, the user is asked a question using JavaScript confirm (which shows 2 buttons - 'OK' & 'Cancel'). Till this point, no problem. Initially, the TextBox is empty. The Button has a property named 'ConfirmMessage' so that the developer using this custom control can modify the question in the confirm dialog. If the user clicks 'OK', I want the...

A custom control is derived from the WebControl class & encapsulates a TextBox & a Button. When the Button is clicked, the user is shown the JavaScript confirm dialog with the 'OK' & 'Cancel' buttons. If the user clicks 'OK', the TextBox gets populated with 'true' & if 'Cancel' is clicked, the TextBox gets populated with 'false'. Note that when the user first comes to the ASPX page that uses this custom control, the TextBox is empty. This...

Hello i have made a custom control. i have placed a panel on it. I want this panel to behave just like the normal panel. The problem i was having is that the panel on my custom control doesnt accept other controls. The control i drag drop on it becomes the child of my custom control's parent form and not the child of my custom control.

Previously I used to create user controls if I wanted to use a specific set of controls in multiple pages, however I want to deploy my control in other applications so I thought of creating custom controls.

The only way I found to create custom controls was to create controls dynamically, set their properties and...

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,...
