The update() method is not invoked when I click the update button (first column). If I add an onUpdating event into the datasource, the corresponding method is never invoked.
The code causing the issue is definitely the checkbox.
If I remove from the datasource update query:
, isAlive = #isAlive
and only set:
UPDATE MyTable SET [name] = #name, prenom = #prenom, isAlive = #isAlive WHERE idWsgProgramOption = #idWsgProgramOption;
Then it updates fine (except the isAlive field of course).
I am 100% sure that the isAlive field exists into the base (bit type).
So it looks that my problem comes from this bloc:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Obligatoire" >
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CB_id1" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="CB_id2" runat="server" />
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
Is there anything obvious that I missed??
Also, this is the simplified code, but if I set the "checked" property to the checkbox and correctly binds, the rows checkbox is correctly field. So the issue does not affect the select but only the update.

Try a button column instead so you can specify the specific command names.
<asp:ButtonField ButtonType="Link" Text="Update" CommandName="Update" />
<asp:ButtonField ButtonType="Link" Text="Delete" CommandName="Delete" />
Take action based on e.CommandName.

I have a Label "lblStatus" which will be either 0 or 1. If its value is 1, then i want to visible false the Update and edit commandbutton of that specific row. I have searched a lot but not found any perfect solution. Please help me someone.
In this case, I would convert the CommandField to TemplateFields. To do so, you will click on the smart tag in the gridview in design view. What this will do is change the commandfields to linkbuttons, where you can set it to false in the behind code. You will want to give your new linkbuttons proper ID's so you can find them in the behind code. Then you will create a databound method.. like..
protected void GridView1_OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
//Code Here to Disable button. I'd use a Foreach loop like this.
foreach(GridViewRow gvr in GridView1.Rows)
{
Label label = ((Label)gvr.FindControl("label"));
LinkButton edit = ((LinkButton)gvr.FindControl("edit"));
if (label.Text == 1)
{
edit.Visible = false;
}
}
}
Hopefully this puts you in the right direction. I think this should do the trick.

Mess table in GridView and run time error

My output in design view is very messy. And when i try to run the page i receive the following error:

Thank you for helps.
Did you actually try to place your control inside the <form runat="server"></form> tags?
Surround your html code with tag => <form runat="server"> ... </form>

Nested gridview row not (fully) deleted after OnRowDeleting event

I have a nested gridview of images that are associated with the parent grid's row on a one to many relationship. This structure is contained in a user control. The images are uploaded with a fileupload control and are stored in a folder on the server. When the image grid's row is deleted, I delete the image from the server in the OnRowDeleting event. What's weird is that when you delete a row, a postback occurs and the OnRowDeleting event fires, the record is deleted from the database, but the row does not go away from the UI until you then delete it a second time. What's even weirder is that when I comment out the code in the OnRowDeleting event, the row deletes immediately. What's going on here?

I commented out any containing updatepanels in the parent page as they can always be the culprit, but there was no effect.
Here is the OnRowDeleting event:
protected void gvImages_RowDeleting(object sender, GridViewDeleteEventArgs e)
{
// Also delete the file from the images folder
OrderItemImage myImage = OrderItemImageManager.GetItem((Guid)e.Keys["Id"]);
if (myImage != null)
{
string path = string.Format("../Images/OrderItemImages/{0}", myImage.OrderItemId.ToString());
if (File.Exists(Server.MapPath(string.Format("{0}/{1}", path, myImage.FileName))))
{
File.Delete(Server.MapPath(string.Format("{0}/{1}", path, myImage.FileName)));
// if there are no images left in folder, then delete it (only deletes empty directory)
if (Directory.GetFiles(Server.MapPath(path), "*.*", SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly).Length == 0)
Directory.Delete(Server.MapPath(path));
}
OrderItemList.DataBind();
}
}
I've done this before and have had no issues, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I ended up wrapping the nested GridView ("gvImages"), the FileUpload, and Button in a user control, and now it works great. I didn't change any of the code, just wrapped it all in the user control, so go figure.

Referencing Controls inside am ajax Tab

I have an ajax tab which inside has a grid, on this grid there is a check box where the user has the ability to check it and assign it to a technician, but for some reason im unable to reference the control, the grid has a total of 4 rows so there is data there, this is my code which is run of a button click
protected void btnAllocate_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (System.Web.UI.Control s in tbHappyCall.Controls)
{
foreach (GridViewRow Row in gvHappyCall.Rows)
{
CheckBox chkAllocate = (CheckBox)Row.FindControl("chkAllocate");
if (chkAllocate.Checked)
{
HyperLink lblOrderID = (HyperLink)Row.FindControl("hyperOrderID");
HappyCallManager objHappyCallManager = new HappyCallManager();
objHappyCallManager.HappyCallAllocated(Convert.ToInt64(lblOrderID.Text), objWebuser.ShortAbbr, ddlAllocateTo.SelectedValue);
//Update database with person details thats are assigned to the Welcome Call
}
}
}
}
when it goes on to the Foreach gridviewrow etc the count is 1 even though there is 4 rows displaying information ?
Can any one shed any light on this? or even better a solution?
Thank you for your time.

For clarification: you don't need to iterate the control collection of your TabPanel to find your GridView, it is available directly and don't confuse it's Controls.Count with the number of GridView.Rows.Count.
Is ViewState disabled somewhere?
Edit: I see that the GridView's ViewState is disabled. I assume that it works when you enable it.

ASP GridView Problem

Im working on the front end development for a website built in .net, This is the first time I've done this and I'm having trouble trying to alter a table.
The code which outputs my table is...

The html equivalent of this is something similar too...
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
However I need 5 columns not 2, I've tried reading up on the syntax but thought I'd ask here also, Thanks for any help.
I'm not exactly sure how your dataset is structured, but do you need that datalist in there or can you just put the controls in their own ItemTemplate in the GridView? This would give you 5 columns:
<asp:GridView ID="GV_Concepts" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="ConCatID"
BorderStyle="None" GridLines="None" ShowHeader="False" BorderWidth="0px" CssClass="DashBoard_Concepts">

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Catalog">

<asp:Label ID="LB_Cata" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("ConCatalog") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:HyperLink ID="HL_ConcLoc" runat="Server" CssClass="linkage" NavigateUrl='<%# Bind("FileName") %>'
Target="_blank" Text='<%# Bind("Ver") %>'></asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LB_remove" runat="server" CommandArgument='<%# Bind("ConceptID") %>'

</ItemTemplate>

</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Literal ID="Lit_SignedCon" Visible='<%# SignedCheck(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"SignOff")) ?false:true %>'
runat="server"><b>Signed Off</b></asp:Literal>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
<EmptyDataTemplate>

</EmptyDataTemplate>
</asp:GridView>
Of course, this ruins your binding to your datasource, but I'm not sure if I can accurately help you with fixing that :(
the number of column is automatically generated according to asp:templatefield
when you have two templatefield, the only two column will be generated, and the number
of rows depend on data.
so if you need 5 columns you have to put 5 templatefield inside the girdiview
Why do you "need" 5 columns? For layout? Perhaps a GridView isn't the right solution given what you're trying to accomplish. Could a Repeater that generates your content accomplish the same thing?
