Passing values between User Controls

I programmatically add a user control to a page which has a data grid on it. The user can then click on a link button to drill down to detail information.

What I would like to do is unload the existing user control and add the new user control with the data grid showing the detail information.

The question is how do I pass the key values from the existing user control to the new user control ?

Thanks

MarkYou can add your Items to the CurrentContext in order to pass from one control to another or from Page to an control

Context.Items.Add("MyValue", myValue)

To retrieve

Context.Items["MyValue"]

The problem here is when I click on the LinkButton on the DataGrid its going to cause the Parent page to reload itself and in the parents Page_Load subroutine its going to unload the existing Datagrid and load up the User Control with the detail DataGrid on. Therefore, it will never pass through the LinkButton's event to set the Context value.

Unless the secret is to load up both User Controls, on the Post Back, but hide the Header DataGrid ? Or to use client side code to pass the key of the selected record to a hidden field which will get submitted back to the server and be available much sooner in the process ?

I would be interested to here what people think would be the best way of doing this or whether there is a way to still use the Context stuff.

Cheers

Mark
Hi,

you could use a delegate.This article explains it how you could do it.

Grz, Kris.
Here Context is the HttpContext which is always available in a page and user controls. You can use this on the Page Load to store some values and then retrieve it later in the User controls as shown in my previous post.

Passing values from a datagrid w/ a HyperLinkColumn

I have successfully populated my datagrid. It consists of only one column. THis column is a link. What I am trying to do is send the text of the link (also what is pulled from the DB) to the aspx page that the link submits to.

I'm open to all suggestions as I'm new and trying to learn all different ways possible.

Thanks!

HDYour column should look like this :

<Columns>
<asp:HyperLinkColumn DataNavigateUrlField="DepartmentID" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="default.aspx?DepartmentID={0}"
DataTextField="DepartmentName" HeaderText="Departments :" ItemStyle-CssClass="side "></asp:HyperLinkColumn>
</Columns>

The DataNavigateUrl field gets placed where the {0} is in the DataNavigateUrlFormatString. DataText is the displayed link text.

On the next page you can pick up the value using Request.Params("DepartmentID")

Simon
Great thanks. However I am receiving the following where I try to do the Request.Params("fieldName").

"'System.Web.HttpRequest.Params' denotes a 'property' where a 'method' was expected"

The line of code throwing the error is :

TextBox1.Text = Request.Params("SelectedCategory");

Thanks for your help, and forgive the stupid questions.

HD
Nevermind. I figured it out. I changed the line of code to

Request.Params.Get("SelectedCategory")

passing variable to open a new window

I am new to asp.net. I am wondering how I can open a new window from a button or link. I need to pass a value so both windows are linked. I will appreciate any help, code vb.net

The main page has a label is that stores the ID number, I need to pass this value so I can display in the new window information about this id. Please help. Thanks.

use the Querystring to pass variables to other pages

ie.

Response.Redirect("www.myplace.com/mynewpage.aspx?someValue=399393","_blank");

check this out

http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/QueryString.asp

hth,

mcm

how about javascript?

<asp:button onclientClick='window.open(.....);' Text='Open New Window' runat=server />

Thanks for the answer. However, I need to open a new window. Could you please help me out? I am using vb.net. Thanks.

javascript DOES open a new window.

read about it. -->http://www.javascript-coder.com/window-popup/javascript-window-open.phtml

mcm

You can test the below code in page_load event which will open a new window using javascript

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(me.GetType(),"open","window.open('WebForm2.aspx?id=123','','height=400,width=300');",true)

Where WebForm2.aspx is the name of the window you would like to open. Now in webform2 you can get the value of id using

Dim id as String = Request.QueryString("id")

HC

Yes. But I need to pass from the current window, a value which is saved in a label, to the new window. Thanks for the answer.

dim yourPassInVar as string

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(me.GetType(),"open","window.open('WebForm2.aspx?id='" + yourPassInVar + ",'','height=400,width=300');",true)

How about this?

In the current window page_load event use the below code if you want the window to open direclty when the page is being loaded

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(me.GetType(),"open","window.open('WebForm2.aspx?id=' + '"+Label1.Text+"','','height=400,width=300');",true)

If you want for example to open it on button click event use the below code

Button1.Attributes.Add("onclick","window.open('WebForm2.aspx?id=' + '"+Label1.Text+"','','height=400,width=300');")

Where Button1 is the button you want to open the window when being clicked

HC

Thanks. How can I do it with a button? When clicking on the button, the variable that holds the id value let's say 123 will be passed to webform2.aspx. Again, thanks for the help.

Great. Thank you for all the help!

passing variable to new page with LinkButton

I need to pass a variable from a master page to a details page when a user clicks on a link in a DataList. Right now I have a link button, but I don't know how to put the variable into the link at runtime. Hopefully this is just a matter of syntax? How can I make this work?

<asp:DataListID="DataList1"runat="server"DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">

<ItemTemplate><asp:LinkButtonID="NameLinkButton"runat="server"Text='<%# Eval("Name") %>'PostBackUrl="details.aspx?sponsorID={0}"Font-Bold="true"></asp:LinkButton>

...

</ItemTemplate></asp:DataList>

try this tutorial

Tuorial #4 Understanding Web Application State in the begnner section ofhttp://www.asp.net/learn/videos/default.aspx?tabid=63#howdoi

helped me out alot on understanding how to pass from one page to the other.

Ragscoon =<^_^>=

could you define a string variable and set it equal to the text property of your linkbutton (I'm assuming the text property will be the data item you want to pass to your other page). Then add that string variable to the querystring that will be passed to your other page.

I had to do something like you are doing, except it was a linkbutton in a gridview. It came out like this:

sLocationCode = grdLocationCode.DataKeys(iIndex).Item("ALCODE").ToString()
sCountryCode = grdLocationCode.DataKeys(iIndex).Item("ALCCODE").ToString()
Response.Redirect("LocationCodeDetail.aspx?" & sCountryCode & ";" & sLocationCode)

I believe this addresses your question.

Thanks for the responses. What I am asking is: what is the syntax for concatenating the destination URL with the variable that I want to pass (the sponsorID)?

If I use:

<

asp:HyperLinkID="NameLabel"runat="server"Text='<%# Eval("Sponsor") %>'NavigateUrl='myDetails.aspx?sponsorID=<%# Eval("SponsorID") %>'Font-Bold="true"></asp:HyperLink>

I get:

http://localhost:2097/myFolder/myDetails.aspx?sponsorID=<%#%20Eval("SponsorID")%20%>

It does not parse the SponsorID variable.

To clarify the last line in my previous message:

I get:

http://localhost:2097/myFolder/myDetails.aspx?sponsorID=<%#%20Eval("SponsorID")%20%>It does not parse the SponsorID variable.

If it has a vbproj or a cproj or can open it that way.

If it has neither of these files then create a new project in vs.net and add
the files manually. To add the files, just right click on the project in
the Solution Manager, click add, then click Add Existing Files.

Find the folder.
Go into properties.
Click on the "Create" application button.

Thanks..that helps for that error. Now when I run it I get the error:

Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file
required to service this request. Please review the specific error details
below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: File or assembly name System.Web, or one of its

I can see line 58 in the web.config file. Thanks for your patience.

It really shouldn't be this hard. I wonder if your .NET framework is set up
correctly.
Are you able to run other ASP.NET web apps with no problem?
You may need to repair your IIS mappings.
To do this, run the following command:
aspnet_regiis.exe -i

Here's further information:

Yes, I am able to run anything else I create. Granted, they've been simple
apps, but I haven't had these problems before.

Ok, did that, but the same error occurs.

Is there anything else I can try?

Add a reference to System.Web.DLL
It should already be referenced but in your case it sounds like it might not
be for some reason.

That didn't help, sorry. I can see the reference already there. However,
here is what I did. I started a new ASP.Net project. Then imported all of
the code from the dotnetbips website. I left alone the web.config
file/didn't overwrite it. Then I ran it and the authentication worked.

At least it's a start..now I can "play" with it. Thanks for your help.
