ASP.NET控件后面的代码未执行

Question

I'm displaying JQuery Modal Window in ASP.NET . I'm using the modal windows as registration form. I'm using .NET controls such as checkbox and buttons . However, the issue I'm running into is that even though I have codebehind for both controls, it never reaches the code behind. For example, I have a Check All checkbox called checkAll . In the code behind I have the following code to check all:

protected void checkAll_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (checkAll.Checked == true)
        {
            foreach (ListItem li in cbList.Items)
            {
                li.Selected = true;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            foreach (ListItem li in cbList.Items)
            {
                li.Selected = false;
            }
        }
    }

However, when I debug and put stop in the first if statement it never comes there.

Also, in the addNewUser_Click event of the button I would like to load the checkboxList which I now do in Page_Load . However, when I put the same code in the code behind of a button it never loads.

Here's the aspx code:

<%@ Page Title="Home Page" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.Master"  AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="TAP._Default" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="Trirand.Web" Namespace="Trirand.Web.UI.WebControls"   TagPrefix="cc1" %>

        }

    return false;

</div>

Please note that the JavaScript function only shows the modal window right now. It doesn't do anything else.

Any suggestions on why I can't get to the code behind of the asp.net controls?

Thanks

Answer 1

The checkbox doesn't automatically cause a postback when the value is changed, therefore your server side code won't be reached. You can make it initiate a postback when the value is changed by setting the AutoPostBack property to true.

However I do not recommend you do this. Think about it, why should you involve the server just to check some checkboxes on the client? Instead, you should use some JavaScript to handle it on the client. jQuery is quite capable of that.

$('#checkAll').change(function(){
    //use jQuery to change the checkbox values here
});

Make sure you sent the ClientIdMode="static" on `checkAll' so that the ID on the client will match the ID on the server.
