FormView ChangeMode in UpdatePanel!

[rsdev]

Hi Guys,

I can't get to the bottom of this one.

I have a formview in an updatepanel and I switch between ReadOnly and Edit mode. No problem the first time round but when I try on the second go to return to ReadOnly it sticks in Edit mode. Wierd!!!

Here's my code;

public void BtnCloseEditMode_Click(object sender, EventArgs args)
        {
            //Switch buttons
            findControl("btnEditMode", Master).Visible = true;
            findControl("btnCloseEditMode", Master).Visible = false;
 
            //Remove CMS Control
            PlaceHolder upPanel = (PlaceHolder)findControl("CMSPlaceHolder", Master);
            upPanel.Controls.Clear();
 
            //Turn off edit mode on clientside
            //ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "turnoff", "endHighlight();", true);
            //Set edit mode
            //ViewState["editMode"] = "false";
            //Turn off edit mode across page
            foreach (EditCompView ecv in editCompList)
            {
                FormView view = (FormView)findControl(ecv.ViewName, Master);
                view.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.ReadOnly);
                view.DataSource = ComponentInfo.GetComponentFromCache(Convert.ToInt32(ecv.Id));
                view.DataBind();
                view.Dispose();
            }
            editCompList.Clear();
            //Updatepanel Updates
            this.updateControl(Master);
        }

Any ideas would be appreciated:)

I also have this in my user control;

protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!Page.IsPostBack)
            {
                FormView viewFC1 = (FormView)BasePage.findControl(cname, this);
                viewFC1.DataSource = ComponentInfo.GetComponentFromCache(Convert.ToInt32(this.ID));
                viewFC1.DataBind();
            }
        }

I think this is the problem but don't know how else to bind data when the control is loaded first time only.

Forget my second post. It seems in debug mode that when a press the button that calls the click event from an updatepanel. It works the first time and calls the event, but the second time it doesn't call the event but the panel still updates. Bizaare!!

Ok. It's not that!

I have made an ArrayList class and the foreach loop iterates through the list, but I think once it does it the first time it stops. Is there a way to reset at the end of the loop?

public class EditCompList : IEnumerator, IEnumerable
    {
        public EditCompList()
        {
            editCompList = new ArrayList();
        }
 
        public ArrayList editCompList;
        int position = -1;
 
        public void Add(EditCompView EditCompView)
        {
            editCompList.Add(EditCompView);
        }
        public void Clear()
        {
            editCompList.Clear();
        }
        public void Remove(EditCompView EditCompView)
        {
            editCompList.Remove(EditCompView);
        }
        public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
        {
            return (IEnumerator)this;
        }
        //IEnumerator
        public bool MoveNext()
        {
            position++;
            return (position < editCompList.Count);
        }
 
        //IEnumerable
        public void Reset()
        { position = 0; }
 
        //IEnumerable
        public object Current
        {
            get { return editCompList[position]; }
        }
 
    }

It's definitely the ArrayList position. It's telling me that the error is 'index is out of range'.

[rsdev]

Ok. I fixed it by setting position = -1 on Reset().

That ArrayList class was from msdn...!
