I am trying to add date From and date To to my products these values are store in my database as date. These are stored in this format 2013-01-15. The format is not a problem but when I display them on my application the time appears (1/15/2013 12:00:00 AM) how can I remove the time please. Below you can find the method Im databound the data.
<asp:Label ID="Label4" runat="server" Text='<% # Eval("soDateTo") %>' Font-Bold="False" Font-Size="Small"></asp:Label>
Try String Formatting within the Eval statement:
See ASP Forums
There are several ways to format the date.
<asp:label id="DateAddedLabel" runat="server" text='<%#
Eval("DateAdded", "{0:d}") %>'></asp:label>
Try this;
<asp:Label ID="Label4" runat="server" Text='<% # Eval("soDateTo", "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}") %>' Font-Bold="False" Font-Size="Small"></asp:Label>
Very similar to Daniel's solution, but it handles null:
<asp:label id="DateAddedLabel" runat="server" text=
'<%# (String.IsNullOrEmpty(Eval("DateAdded").ToString()))
? "No Date Available" : Eval("DateAdded", "{0:d}") %>'>
</asp:label>
This has been answered just fine, but I used to use a lot more Labels than were necessary and thought I'd offer a way without.
You can ignore the Label all together and put the Eval(...) method by itself.
For example if you are using this inside of a TemplateField
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Date To">
<ItemTemplate>
<%# Eval("soDateTo", "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}") %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
You can use this to improve your CSS control a tad, such as
<div id="client_since">
<%# Eval("soDateTo", "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}") %>
</div>
Use DateTime.ToShortDateString Method to get rid of the time part of the date:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.toshortdatestring.aspx
Try this:
> <asp:Label ID="Label4" runat="server" Text='<% # Eval("soDateTo", "{0:d}") %>'
> Font-Bold="False" Font-Size="Small"></asp:Label>
Try this;
<asp:Label ID="lbldate" runat="server" Text='<%# (Convert.ToDateTime(Eval("soDateTo"))).ToShortDateString() %>'></asp:Label>

Been trying to fix this for hours and I know that the problem is with the '#' but I could not find any solution to this problem. My field name in the database is 'HRTRN#'.
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Transaction#">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox13" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("HRTRN#") %>' Width="50px" Height="17px" MaxLength="14"></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label5" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("HRTRN#") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
Does anyone know the solution for this to make the field name containing # symbol accessible?
You should change your code from :
Bind("HRTRN#")
To
Bind("[HRTRN#]")
Since it contains special charcters. ( you would do that also for columns with spaces).
I want to create a table as below to interact with database to retrieve, delete, update data.
My output in design view is very messy. And when i try to run the page i receive the following error:
Control 'GridView1' of type 'GridView' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server.
Please advise me for enhancement based on below data table and my coding.
.aspx:
<div class="modal-bg">
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" EnableEventValidation="false"
BackColor="White" BorderColor="#3366CC" BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px"
CellPadding="4" Width="426px">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField>
<HeaderTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("UserName") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<HeaderTemplate>

<button id="newuserbutton" onclick="return newuserbutton_onclick()">

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>
How should DataFormatString of BoundField in Gridview look like that values won't have leading zeros?
So far I got this:
<asp:BoundField DataField="NUMBER" HeaderText="Id. number" DataFormatString="{0:d}">
Expected result:
000001 -> 1
002101 ->2101
I tried to figure that problem out with official documentation and this page. So far unsuccessful.
When you want to format something properly in a boundfield, I always suggest converting it to a templatefield. It's much easier to work with than boundfields. Here is an example of how the templatefield will look like once it's converted.
<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False" Visible="False">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tbEditNumber" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Number","{0:n}") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tbNumber" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Number","{0:n}") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
within that template field I placed..
Text='<%# Bind("yourfield","{0:n}") %>'
This should format it into a number and should drop the leading zeros.
EDIT: You might be able to try
Text='<%# String.Format("{0:n}", Eval("Number") ) %>'
Another approach is to use String.Trim function. The following code is how I accomplished what you are trying to do:
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" Text="<%#Eval("NUMBER").ToString().TrimStart('0')%>" ></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
The tricky part was using the correct combination of quotes and single quotes. You can use
"
in place of the quote character around your datafield column that you are displaying.
Simplifiying A Kimmels answer, no need to place in a server label, no concern of single or double quotes, no concern of underlying datatype, as it casts the object to string, then performs a string.TrimStart, no need for codebehind
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Work Order">
<ItemTemplate>
<%# Eval("WorkOrder").ToString().TrimStart("0".ToCharArray()) %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
0123456 = 123456
0012345 = 12345
if a server label is required, just start and end the text tag with single quotes
<asp:Label ID="lblWorkOrder" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("WorkOrder").ToString().TrimStart("0".ToCharArray()) %>' />
Try this. Much cleaner this way.
Markup
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Id. number">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tbEditNumber" runat="server" Text='<%# ConvertToDigit(Eval("Number")) %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tbNumber" runat="server" Text='<%# ConvertToDigit(Eval("Number")) %>'></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
Code-behind
protected int ConvertToDigit(object oNum)
{
var i = 0;
if (oNum != null) int.TryParse(oNum.ToString(), out i);
return i;
}
I've got an Asp.Net GridView inside an UpdatePanel. It all works fine, except when one of the columns includes HTML special characters like < and >. The GridView is bound to a List<Entity> and the Entity class has a property Regex which is a System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.
At first I had this:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="RegEx">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="RegExLabel" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Regex") %>'
ToolTip='<%#Eval("Regex") %>' Width="102px" CssClass="Wrap" />
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="RegExTextBox" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Regex") %>'
Width="98px" />
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
With a value of (?<capture>\d+) this displayed ?\d+ when not editing, and when editing this row I got a script error and the edit, update and cancel buttons no longer work.
Then I tried the answer in this question and had this:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="RegEx">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="RegExLabel" runat="server"
Text='<%#System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(Eval("Regex").ToString()) %>'
ToolTip='<%#System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(Eval("Regex").ToString()) %>'
Width="102px" CssClass="Wrap" />
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="RegExTextBox" runat="server"
Text='<%#System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(Eval("Regex").ToString()) %>'
Width="98px" />
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
This is slightly better, in that the tooltip and the non-editing version display correctly, but when I start editing I see: (?<capture>\d+) with the HTML Entities displayed raw. Does anyone know a way to encode the values (to stop the script error) while still displaying them correctly without the HTML entities in their raw state when editing?
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="RegEx">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Literal Mode="Encode" ID="RegExLabel" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Regex") %>'
ToolTip='<%#Eval("Regex") %>' Width="102px" CssClass="Wrap" />
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="RegExTextBox" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("Regex") %>'
Width="98px" />
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
and in the page directive add this ValidateRequest="false"
Morning all I have frequently used the old
<asp:Label ID="lblWas" runat="server" Text='<%# XPath("FACEVALUE") %>'></asp:Label>
This type of thing. when I first came across it I loved it, i'm using it again today but not quite so simply.
I have a number of extra things I would like to achieve.
Apply formatting to the value. Like Text='<%# string.Format(XPath("FACEVALUE"), "{0:c}") %>'>
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkBook" runat="server" PostBackUrl='/THEATRE/' + XPath("FACEVALUE")>Book</asp:LinkButton>
For option number 2 the URL is not as I would expect, and for number 1 I cannot get the syntax correct if it's even possible.
I have not been able to find something suitable in google. Hopefully what I am trying to achieve is obvious from the example :)
You can use the TemplateControl.XPath(string xPathExpression, string format) override:
<asp:Label Text='<%# XPath("FACEVALUE", "{0:c}") %>' />
<asp:LinkButton Text="..." PostBackUrl='<%# XPath("FACEVALUE", "/THEATRE/{0}") %>' />
As you can see, you do not need to use string.Format because you can pass the format directly into the XPath method!
I believe for #1, you have messed up the syntax, you want to use
Text='<%# string.Format("{0:c}", XPath("FACEVALUE")) %>'
or Text='<%# XPath("FACEVALUE", "{0:c}") %>'
For #2, you need to use data binding expressions
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkBook" runat="server" PostBackUrl='<%# "/THEATRE/" + XPath("FACEVALUE")%>'>Book</asp:LinkButton>
For the first thing it must be Text='<%# string.Format( "{0:c}",XPath("FACEVALUE")) %>'>
and for the second one it should be
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkBook" runat="server" PostBackUrl='/THEATRE/ + <%# XPath("FACEVALUE") %>'>Book</asp:LinkButton>
