I've a user control registered in an aspx page.
User control has a textbox and a submit button.
Ascx code of user control is placed under a asp:panel.
Using firefox, when user hits enter key, the page is not submitting to the server.However, this works fine in IE browsers.
Am i missing something here?
Try setting defaultbutton="urbuttonid" to the asp:panel
Set property DefaultButton="submitbtn" for asp:panel.
Replace submitbtn with your asp:button id.
Yea, what the others say. You've probably got a submit button earlier in the page that Firefox is associating you enter key press with.
Use:
<asp:panel .... DefaultButton="btSubmit">
<asp:textbox ... />
<asp:button id="btSubmit" ... />
</asp:panel>

I have a weird problem in my page. I have a button called Print. I wanted report should come in a new tab, so i wrote some javascript on button's onClientClick. Which works great with no problem at all.
But problem starts now when user comes back on original page again, now here i have several controls which cause postback. Say for example its a dropdownlist. so whenever user changes dropdown item it causes postback which is fine but everytime it opens a new tab on every postback.
hope I am clear in question...
Any help??
Here is a code:
<asp:Button ID="btnshow" runat="server" Text="Show" Font-Bold="true" ForeColor="Black" Width="90px" OnClick="btnshow_Click" OnClientClick ="document.forms[0].target = '_blank';"/>
The issue is document.forms[0].target='_blank' is setting the target on the form not the individual button so a postback triggered by any control will open in a new tab.
You should use a HyperLink control instead of the Button control. The HyperLink control has a Target property which allows you to specify how the link should be opened.
Below is an example taken from the HyperLink documentation. This will render an anchor tag with target="_blank".
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkPrint" NavigateUrl="http://www.microsoft.com" Text="Print" Target="_blank" runat="server" />
I am using the Login control. Just in FireFox, I am finding that I cannot click directly on the UserName field. I need to tab through all the other elements on that page. Just wondering if there is a work around to this issue?
<asp:Login ID="LoginUser" runat="server" EnableViewState="false" RenderOuterTable="false" OnLoggedIn="LoginUser_LoggedIn">
You can do this by adding the following code to the Page_Load method on your login page:
AppLogin.Focus();
this.Form.DefaultButton = "ctl00$BodyPlaceHolder$AppLogin$LoginButton";
This will also cause the "login" button to be clicked when you click enter.
Note: The full "path" (ctl100$BodyPlaceHolder...) may vary slightly depending on whether or not you're using master pages, panels, etc. You can simply view the element on the page in your favorite inspector and find the rendered name for the login button.
More details can be found at my blog here.
On one of my asp.net pages I have a few textboxes and a required validator attached to them. Everything is ok with validation, but when I want to change page to another required validator doesn't allow it because I don't fill in a textbox :/
How to allowed change page without fill a validate textbox? I must create a condition in "exit page" (how is it named ?) event disabled required validation?
Please help ;)
If you're using some control to move to the next page, set it's CausesValidation property to False.
For example, if you're clicking a button that moves you to the next page, it would be like:
<asp:LinkButton id="myButton" runat="server" CausesValidation="False" .... />
I have 3 different kinds of ajax popups that need to exist across my site. I was hoping that I could simply create a user control for each one and place the panel and modal popup extender inside each one but this doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone tried this before or do you have a recommendation as to how I can avoid duplicate code for each pop up on different pages? Thanks!
Ah I figured out my issue with the User Control I believe.
The ModalPopUpExtender requires the TargetID property to be set otherwise an error occurs. Since this is sitting in a UserControl I just created a dummy link button that doesn't do anything and I set the property visible to false.
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnkBlank" runat="server" Visible="false" />
<asp:Panel ID="plContainer" style="display: none;" runat="server">
Hello?
</asp:Panel>
<cc1:ModalPopupExtender ID="mpe" runat="server"
BehaviorID="test"
TargetControlID="lnkBlank"
PopupControlID="plContainer" />
Apparently it doesn't appreciate that and the moment I set the visible property to true it started working. Not sure what the reasoning is for a TargetID since, I would think, most pop ups could be called from multiple links about the page. Perhaps I'm still not entirely clear on how this control is supposed to be used.
One option would be to write the popups in a asp.net user control (a .ascx page) and include that on the pages you need the popups. Have a public method in the ascx page that will show the popup, and call it from the parent page when you need to. If you already have a script manager on the parent page, you can't have a second one in the ascx page, but other then that there shouldn't be anything that would stop this from working. Hope this helps!
edit: here's what my modal popup extender control looks like...
<cc1:ModalPopupExtender
ID="mpeClassroom"
BackgroundCssCLass="modalBackground"
runat="server"
CancelControlID="lbClose"
OnOkScript="onOk()"
TargetControlID="Button1"
PopupControlID="pnlClassroom">
</cc1:ModalPopupExtender>
in my code behind page, my method just calls mpeClassroom.Show();
The problem with hidden link as TrgetControlID is that; when u set its visibility as false, server doesn't render it as well. PopExtender then cannot find control on the page.
Instead of setting its visibility to false, try to apply a style with display:none. This should work !
I have a gridview that is within an updatepanel for a modal popup I have on a page.
The issue is that the entire page refreshes every time I click an imagebutton that is within my gridview. This causes my entire page to load and since I have grayed out the rest of the page so that the user cannot click on it this is very annoying.
Does any one know what I am missing.
Edit: I entered a better solution at the bottom
Make sure you have the following set on the UpdatePanel:
ChildrenAsTriggers=false and UpdateMode=Conditional
do you have ChildrenAsTriggers="false" on the UpdatePanel?
Are there any javascript errors on the page?
I had this problem and came across the following article:
http://bloggingabout.net/blogs/rick/archive/2008/04/02/linkbutton-inside-updatepanel-results-in-full-postback-updatepanel-not-triggered.aspx
My button wasn't dynamically created in the code like in this example, but when I checked the code in the aspx sure enough it was missing an ID property. On adding the ID the postback became asynchronous and started to behave as expected.
So, in summary, check your button has an ID!
Are you testing in Firefox or IE? We have a similar issue where the entire page refreshes in Firefox (but not IE). To get around it we use a hidden asp:button with the useSubmitBehavior="false" set.
<asp:Button ID="btnRefresh" runat="server" OnClick="btnRefresh_Click" Style="display: none" UseSubmitBehavior="false" />
Several months later this problem was fixed. The project I was working in was a previous v1.1 which was converted with 2.0. However, in the web.config this line remained:
<xhtmlConformance mode="Legacy"/>
When it was commented out all of the bugs that we seemed to have with the ajax control toolkit disappeared
Is the Modal Window popped up using the IE Modal window? Or is it a DIV that you are showing?
If it is an IE Modal Pop up you need to ensure you have
<base target="_self" />
To make sure the post back are to the modal page.
If it is a DIV make sure you have your XHTML correct or it might not know what to update.
I would leave the onClick and set it as the trigger for the updatePanel.
That's odd that it works in FF and not IE. That is opposite from the behavior we experience.
UpdatePanels can be sensitive to malformed HTML. Do a View Source from your browser and run it through something like the W3C validator to look for anything weird (unclosed div or table being the usual suspects)
If you use Firefox, there's a HTML validator Extension/AddOn available that works quite nicely.
For reference..
I've also noticed, when using the dreaded <asp:UpdatePanel ... /> and <asp:LinkButton ... />, that as well as UpdateMode="Conditional" on the UpdatePanel the following other changes are required:
ViewStateMode="Enabled" is required on <asp:Content ... /> (I've set it to Disabled in the MasterPage)
ClientIDMode="Static" had to be removed from <%# Page ... />
To prevent post-backs add return false to the onclick event.
button.attribute.add("onclick","return false;");
Sample:
string PopupURL = Common.GetAppPopupPath() + "Popups/StockChart.aspx?s=" + symbol;
hlLargeChart.Attributes.Add("onclick", String.Format("ShowPopupStdControls(PCStockChartWindow,'{0}');return false;", PopupURL));
