My problem is in asp.net
Button control and
DropDownList.
I have a Button called
ApplyButton and a DropDownList called
FilterCombo.
<asp:Button ID="ApplyButton" runat="server" Text="Apply Filter" OnClick="ApplyButton_Click" />
<asp:DropDownList ID="FilterCombo" runat="server" ></asp:DropDownList>
I want to call a method which accept a
int as a parameter using my DropDownList's (
FilterCombo)
SelectedIndex In ApplyButton's
OnClick event. But
Onclick event of Button is not firing when I click on the Button. But it works if I set Button's
UseSubmitBehavior="false".
<asp:Button ID="ApplyButton" runat="server" Text="Apply Filter" OnClick="ApplyButton_Click" UseSubmitBehavior="false" />
Now the OnClick method is firing well. But the problem is
FilterCombo.SelectedIndex always returns
0. Why can't I fire the
Onclick event without setting
UseSubmitBehavior="false" and How can I get the correct
SelectedIndex of
FilterCombo ?
Here is the backend code for Page_Load,
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
LeftSideBarHolder.Controls.Add(Page.LoadControl("~/Pages/Common_wa/LeftPanel.ascx"));
HeaderHolder.Controls.Add(Page.LoadControl("~/Pages/Common_wa/Header.ascx"));
try
{
string columns = Request["columns"];
string[] arr = columns.Split(';');
pkey = bool.Parse(arr[0]);
leader = bool.Parse(arr[1]);
type = bool.Parse(arr[2]);
level = bool.Parse(arr[3]);
state = bool.Parse(arr[4]);
dueDate = bool.Parse(arr[5]);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
if (!IsPostBack)
{
Owner = int.Parse(Session["userID"].ToString());
ViewState["PreviousPage"] = Request.UrlReferrer;
LoadFilters();
if (pkey) pKeyCheckBox.Checked = true;
if (leader) LeaderCheckBox.Checked = true;
if (type) TypeCheckBox.Checked = true;
if (level) LevelCheckBox.Checked = true;
if (state) StateCheckBox.Checked = true;
if (dueDate) DueDateCheckBox.Checked = true;
}
try
{
DTO.Search.SearchResult SearchResult_new = (DTO.Search.SearchResult)Session["SearchResults"];
Result = SearchResult_new.Result;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
}
Code for LoadFilters() - Used to load data to the FilterCombo
private void LoadFilters()
{
SearchUtils util = new SearchUtils();
int Owner = int.Parse(Session["userID"].ToString());
DataSet filters = util.GetFiltersOfOwner_AsDataSet(Owner);
FilterCombo.DataSource = filters;
FilterCombo.DataValueField = "Id";
FilterCombo.DataTextField = "Name";
FilterCombo.DataBind();
}
OnClick event of ApplyButton
protected void ApplyButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SearchUtils util = new SearchUtils();
int Id = int.Parse(FilterCombo.SelectedValue);
SearchFilter filter = util.GetFilter(Id);
string Columns = filter.Columns;
string[] arr = Columns.Split(';');
pkey = bool.Parse(arr[0]);
leader = bool.Parse(arr[1]);
type = bool.Parse(arr[2]);
level = bool.Parse(arr[3]);
state = bool.Parse(arr[4]);
dueDate = bool.Parse(arr[5]);
Response.Redirect("SearchResult_new.aspx?columns=" + pkey + ";" + leader + ";" + type + ";" + level + ";" + state + ";" + dueDate + "");
}
Update : I think i found the reason. But don't know a solution.. My Button and DropDownList are in a Div which is working as a
jQuery Dialog which is invoke by a
JavaScript function.
<%-- Load Filter Dialog Box --%>
<div id="loadFilterDialog" title="Apply Filter" style="display: none">
<div class="BodyPanelDiv">
<asp:DropDownList ID="FilterCombo" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList>
</div>
<div class="BottomPanelDiv" align="Right">
<asp:Button ID="ApplyButton" runat="server" Text="Apply Filter" OnClick="ApplyButton_Click" UseSubmitBehavior="false" />
<asp:Button ID="CancelButton2" runat="server" Text="Cancel" OnClientClick="return closeDialog(2); return false;" />
</div>
</div>
<%-- End of Load Filter Dialog Box --%>
Here is the JavaScript which invokes the Dialog
function showDialog() {
$("#loadFilterDialog").dialog({
draggable: true,
resizable: false,
width: 350,
height: 150,
minHeight: 10,
minwidth: 10
});
return false;
}
