Create a Condition For all non empty fields to be ReandOnly - ASP.NET Core 6.0 MVC - c#

I am developing my first web application with ASP.NET Core 6, and I have a form that shows some fields that I already have information inside of my database.
The problem is: these fields needs to be read-only, because my user needs to considerate the information from my database. If is null, then he needs to insert a value.
Here is an example (consider the field with already set readonly). Most of fields will need this code:
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-3">
<label for="Renda Bruta">Associado Desde:</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-3">
<label for="Renda Liquida">Cota Capital</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-6" style="text-align:center">
<label for="ServidorPublico">IAP:</label>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Quantidade" value="#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.iAP.QuantidadeProduto)" ReadOnly="readonly"/>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Produtos" value=""#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.iAP.Pro)" ReadOnly="readonly"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-4">
<label for="Renda Bruta">Margem Contribuição</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-8" style="text-align:center">
<label for="ServidorPublico">Cheque Especial</label>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Dias de Utilização" />
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Valor Utilizado" />
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Valor Contratado" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
I already build the form, and put some fields readonly with ReadOnly="readonly", but is there a way to loop all fields and put readonly with a loop or I really need to write in all fields the code `ReadOnly="readonly" ? My form is really big

But is there a way to loop all fields and put readonly with a loop or
I really need to write in all fields the code `ReadOnly="readonly" ?
My form is really big
Yes, you can set that ReadOnly attribute based on the value of your textbox field.
In this scenario you have to consider two way, either you should consider your textbox name attribute or type="text" attribute. Upon these two very way we will be decided which textbox set to readonly which is not.
For [type='text'] Attribute:
When [type='text'] means we will check all the textbox type of text and check if the textbox have value and set the readonly attribute:
View:
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-3">
<label for="Renda Bruta">Associado Desde:</label>
<input type="text" name="Associado" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-3">
<label for="Renda Liquida">Cota Capital</label>
<input type="text" name="Cota" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-6" style="text-align:center">
<label for="ServidorPublico">IAP:</label>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" name="Quantidade" class="form-control" placeholder="Quantidade" value="Test Value" />
<input type="text" name="Produtos" class="form-control" placeholder="Produtos" value="Test Value Products" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-4">
<label for="Renda Bruta">Margem Contribuição</label>
<input type="text" name="Margem" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="col-8" style="text-align:center">
<label for="ServidorPublico">Cheque Especial</label>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" name="Dias" class="form-control" placeholder="Dias de Utilização" />
<input type="text" name="Utili" class="form-control" placeholder="Valor Utilizado" />
<input type="text" name="Contra" class="form-control" placeholder="Valor Contratado" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
Script:
#section scripts {
<script src="https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.3/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("input[type='text']").each(function (index, item) {
console.log(item);
if ($(item).val() != "") {
$(item).attr('readonly', true);
}
});
});
</script>
}
Note: When will will set readonly to a textbox which has value based on the text type then we have to consider like input[type='text']
For name Attribute:
#section scripts {
<script src="https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.11.3/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("input").each(function (index, item) {
console.log(item);
if ($(item).val() != "") {
$(item).attr('readonly', true);
}
});
});
</script>
}
Note: Remember in this scenario, you need to set name property for your textbox to identify uniquely as you can see I have added name property
Output:

what I understand that you want to make the input field enterable when the value of it is null. this is done by javascript.
I suggest to make all input fields read only.
use javascript to test each field, if its value is null make it enterable.
for example:
<input type="text" id="text1" class="form-control" placeholder="Quantidade" value="#Html.DisplayFor(model => model.iAP.QuantidadeProduto)" ReadOnly="readonly"/>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
if (document.getElementById("text1").value.length == 0)
{
document.getElementById("text1").readOnly = false;
}}
</script>
so basically when the page is loading the script will check if the input is null or not and it will do the action.

Binding generic value back to controller via post method

I can't figure out how to bind back generic value from view when sending it back to controller via post method.
I have generic class PageModel that inherites from GenericModel. PageModel has additional parameter Page (class that have two int parameters, pageSize and pageNumber). GenericModel has only generic value of T named viewModel and nothing more. The problem is that standard C# binder binds Page parameter without any issues, but no matter what I'm trying to do ViewModel is never filled in.
Models:
public class GenericModel<T>
{
public T ViewModel { get; set; }
public GenericModel(T viewModel)
{
ViewModel = viewModel;
}
public GenericModel()
{
}
}
public class PageModel<T> : GenericModel<T>
{
public Page Page { get; set; }
public PageModel(T viewModel, Page page) : base(viewModel)
{
Page = page;
}
public PageModel() : base()
{
}
}
Generic Parameter:
public class UserModel
{
public string Id { get; set; }
public string Email { get; set; }
public string Password { get; set; }
public string ConfirmPassword { get; set; }
public IList<string> Roles { get; set; }
public IList<string> NewRoles { get; set; }
}
Controller method
[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> Update(PageModel<UserModel> model)
{
var isUpdated = await _userServices.Update(model.ViewModel);
ViewData["IsUpdated"] = isUpdated;
return View("Index", await _userServices.GetUsersPage(model.Page.PageNumber, model.Page.PageSize));
}
View:
#model PageModel<UserModel>
#{
ViewData["Title"] = "Update";
}

{

checked="#Model.ViewModel.Roles.Contains(availableRole.Name)">
<label class="form-check-label">#availableRole</label>
</div>
}
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Change</button>
Do you know what can be the issue? Is naming convention wrong? I've already tried to find answer on stack, but with no luck.

EDIT 2
I've changed the disable tag from id to readonly, and now ID is being sent. I don't thing I've changed anything else but I think thanks to that every single other property is added, but IList with roles. There still is a problem. Roles don't bind at all.

Thanks to #itminus help I could solve the issue. Below you have changed form with two versions of the same - Roles with

{

Is naming convention wrong?
Yes. The name convention is :
Dot (.) represents property
[] represents collection index or dictionary
However, in your previous code, NewRoles fields have the name of newRoles:
<input ... name="newRoles" ...>
which is not correct. The same goes for the Roles property.
So you need change you code in following way:
Roles:
<label asp-for="ViewModel.Roles"></label>
<input type="text" asp-for="ViewModel.Roles" class="form-control" hidden="hidden" />
<span asp-validation-for="ViewModel.Roles" class="text-danger"></span>
#for(var i=0; i < Model.ViewModel.Roles.Count(); i++)
{
<input type="hidden" name="ViewModel.Roles[]" value="#Model.ViewModel.Roles[i]" />
}
NewRoles:
#foreach (var availableRole in (IList<IdentityRole>)ViewData["AllRoles"])
{
<div class="form-check">
<input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox"
name="ViewModel.NewRoles[]"
value="#availableRole.Name"
checked="#Model.ViewModel.Roles.Contains(availableRole.Name)">
<label class="form-check-label">#availableRole</label>
</div>
}

Posting varying amount of images from a form

I'm attempting to build a form with a few textbox inputs and a file input for someone to upload images.
When a file is picked, I have some JS go get a partial view and render it in the form. After the new partial is rendered, I clone and copy the file input element and place it as a hidden input in the new partial to be used later in the form. There's some other fields in the partial that relate to the image that was selected.
Once that's all done, the file input element is reset, and the user can select another image, generating a new partial view, etc.
The form looks like it's being rendered correctly, but when I try to submit, VS memory/cpu usage spikes, and the request never makes it to the controller. Any advice or help here is appreciated!

When there's more than one image trying to be uploaded, only the first image shows up the in the Fiddler info. I can also upload that or anything else if it would be helpful. I tried to include everything though. Is there a better way to accomplish this? I'm thinking about trying to hook into imgur or something similar if I can't work this out.
You should use your input like this :
<input type="file" multiple="multiple" name="files" id="files" />
I don't know if you can use the type="image" here, but you can certainly use your controler to check if the user only uploaded images.
Or you may be able to add this parameter to the input.

Form fields from the ASP.NET View appear NULL in the Controller

The form fields do not return the value of the form even thought the asp-controller and asp-action is stated.
The form does go to the right controller function and returns the right view, however, it does the form object is NULL.
#using ActionAugerMVC.Models
#model Tuple<IEnumerable<Cities>,Content,IEnumerable<Content>,Quote>
#addTagHelper "*,Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.TagHelpers"
<div class="sidebar__item">
<p class="subheading">Instant Quote Request</p>
<form class="register__form" role="form" asp-controller="Plumbing" asp-action="QuoteForm" method="post">
<div class="text-danger" asp-validation-summary="All"></div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="sr-only">Full Name </label>
<input asp-for="#Model.Item4.FullName" type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Full name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="sr-only">Your phone</label>
<input asp-for="#Model.Item4.Phone" type="tel" class="form-control" placeholder="Your phone">
<span asp-validation-for="#Model.Item4.Phone" class="text-danger"></span>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="sr-only">E-mail</label>
<input asp-for="#Model.Item4.Email" type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="E-mail">
<span asp-validation-for="#Model.Item4.Email" class="text-danger"></span>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="sr-only">Your Message</label>
<input asp-for="#Model.Item4.Message" type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Your Message">
</div>
<input type="submit" value="Get a Quote Now" class="btn btn-accent btn-block">
</form>
</div> <!-- .sidebar__item -->
And the Controller looks like this, with the Quote object being null.
The hard coded, values appear correctly in the view, but the Quote object returned by the form is null.
[HttpPost]
public IActionResult QuoteForm(Quote quote)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
/* quote.FullName = "Umar Aftab";
quote.Email = "test#email.com";
quote.City = "Calgary";
quote.Message = "Test Message";
quote.Phone = "6474543769";
*/
}
return View(quote);
}
The issue is your use of a Tuple as your view's model combined with asp-for. For example, with something like:
<input asp-for="#Model.Item4.FullName" type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Full name">
The name of the input is going to end up as Item4.FullName. However, your action accepts only Quote, which means the modelbinder needs the input to be named just FullName in order to bind it properly. You either need to accept the same model the view uses (though I've never tried posting a Tuple so not sure if that will even work), or you can use a partial view to work around the issue.
Essentially, you just would need to move all the fields related to just Quote to a partial view. Then, in this view, you can include them via:
#Html.Partial("_QuoteFields", Model.Item4)
That should be enough psych Razor out enough to just name the fields like FullName instead of Item4.FullName. If it's not, then you may need to reset the HtmlFieldPrefix, via:
#Html.Partial("_QuoteFields, Model.Item4, new ViewDataDictionary(ViewData) { TemplateInfo = new TemplateInfo { HtmlFieldPrefix = "" } })
The model on your view is different than the model you're trying to bind it to in the controller. You're not going to get the key/value pairs to match up
Put your razor in a partial view with Quote as the model and try that.

Form does not submit when I click submit button of it C# & jQuery

I append my select option from database table. Select option has two type
scalar
event
If the option type is scalar, I need to show 2 input fields (alarm, reset) so that user can inset values in it and when the option type is event I need to hide 2 input fields (alarm, reset) so that user cannot inset values in it.
When the option type is scalar, my form saves successfully but when option type is event form submit button not going to perform any action.
Can you please help?
Here is my code
HTML
<div class="row">
<form method="post" action="/Home/SaveTriggers" class="form-inline">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="col-md-2">
<select name="sourceId" class="select2" required>
#foreach (var i in ViewBag.opt)
{
<option value="#i.Id,#i.name,#i.type" id="opt">#i.name</option>
}
</select>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="alarm" name="alarm" type="text" placeholder="alarm" style="display:none" required />
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="reset" name="reset" type="text" placeholder="reset" style="display:none" required />
</div>
<div class="col-md-1">
<input type="text" name="delay" id="delay" placeholder="delay" required />
</div>
<div class="col-md-3">
<select class="address2" name="action" id="select" required>
<option selected disabled>Select alarm action</option>
<option>John Doe, Switch on warning light</option>
<option>John Doe</option>
<option>Do anything</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<button id="delete2" type="button" class="btn btn-default">Delete</button>
</div>
<button class=" add btn btn-primary" type="submit">Add</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
Jquery(as i have to hide or show alarm or reset fields respectively)
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".select2").change(function () {
var text = $(".select2 option:selected").text();
var val = $(".select2 option:selected").val();
var res = val.split(",");
var type = res[2];
if (type == "scalar") {
document.getElementById("reset").style.display = "block";
document.getElementById("alarm").style.display="block"
}
else if(type=="event") {
document.getElementById("reset").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("alarm").style.display = "none"
var alarm = document.getElementById("alarm");
}
});
});
</script>
The problem is most likely your inputs for alarm and reset.
If type is event, they are hidden and will most likely hold no value. But since they are required, the form will not submit until that error is resolved.
So you can either remove the required attribute from those 2 input fields, populate them with default values or use novalidate in your form tag. This disables form validation. You'd have to validate your inputs by hand in javascript.
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="alarm" name="alarm" type="text" placeholder="alarm" style="display:none" />
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="reset" name="reset" type="text" placeholder="reset" style="display:none" />
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="alarm" name="alarm" type="text" placeholder="alarm" style="display:none" required />
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<input id="reset" name="reset" type="text" placeholder="reset" style="display:none" required />
as you're having required attribute in your input element, the validation is getting triggered and not letting you submit the form.
i would suggest you to do a validation on jquery on submit instead of using default html5 validation

Inline form not working correctly

Trying to get an inline form out of bootstrap using the class form-inline. However, I'm encountering some unexpected behavior and I'm using exactly the same code as listed on the Boostrap official page.
This is what I get:
The code:
#using (Html.BeginForm("Edit", "Index", FormMethod.Post, new { #class = "form-inline" }))
{
<div class="form-group">
<label for="new-value">Enter new value: </label>
<input type="text" id="new-value" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
Public: <input type="checkbox" />
</label>
</div>
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" />
}
When I remove the form-control class from the text box I get the wanted result, but I don't have the cool text box then:
I'm aware of the warning from bootstrap:
This only applies to forms within viewports that are at least 768px wide.
But this is on a large screen and the form width is 1160px.
I have edited your code.
Hope this is what you wanted!
HTML
<form class="form-inline">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="new-value">Enter new value: </label>
<input type="text" id="new-value" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="checkbox">
<label> Public:
<input type="checkbox" />
</label>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" />
</div>
</form>
