I have a User Control which is a customer input form.
I'm working on a sales system, when generating a sale, the customer data is populated by a Javascript Auto Complete, but when loading a saved sale, I need to paste a User ID into the control programatically.
<controls:customerDataForm ID='customerForm1' partExchangeMenu="true" showBankDetails="false" customerID="****" runat='server' />
Renders my control on the page within the markup of the parent document (in this case it's called newSale.aspx
)
In the code behind in newSale.aspx.vb
I need to be able to programmtically change the value of the Controls customerID
attribute. I can't seem to do it.
This is what I have done, following various Googling attempts, but it is always leaving the customerID as zero
Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
customerForm1.customerID = "0" '// default Customer ID if no invoice number
If Request.QueryString("invno") <> "" Then
Dim customerID As Integer
'// open database and get customer ID from the invoice.
customerForm1.customerID = customerID '// set customerID value
End If
End Sub
EDIT; just so you know, if I manually set the customerID, I am able to access that attribute within the codebehind for the Control
=========
EDIT, I have got it working now by adding the Control to the page in the code behind of the parent page, but that's not really what I wanted. Here's what I am doing now. The ONLY difference being the placeholder for the control and adding it in the code.
The parent page looks like this:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" CodeFile="newSale.aspx.vb" Inherits="newSale_Default"%>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="controls" TagName="customerDataForm" Src="~/Controls/customerForm.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="controls" TagName="itemDataList" Src="~/Controls/itemList.ascx" %>
<asp:content id="content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="mainContent" runat="server">
<div class="content">
<form id="newSale" method="post" action="saveSale.aspx">
<h1>--- New Sale ---</h1>
<div class="section blackBoxShadow borderRad5" id="customerSection">
<asp:placeholder ID="customerPlaceHolder" runat="server" />
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</asp:content>
Code behind:
Partial Class newSale_Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim savedCustomerID As Integer
Dim customerCtrl As Controls_customerData
customerCtrl = CType(LoadControl("~\Controls\customerForm.ascx"), Controls_customerData)
customerCtrl.ShowBankDetails = "false"
If Request.QueryString("invno") <> "" Then
Using connection As OdbcConnection = Common.getConnection("new")
connection.Open()
Dim openDB As OdbcCommand = Common.createCommand("SELECT customerId, id FROM invoices WHERE id='" & Request.QueryString("invNo") & "' LIMIT 1", connection, "new")
Dim objDataReader As OdbcDataReader = openDB.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
While (objDataReader.Read())
savedCustomerID = objDataReader("customerId")
End While
End Using
customerCtrl.customerID = savedCustomerID
Else
customerCtrl.customerID = 0
End If
customerPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(customerCtrl)
End Sub
End Class
Customer Form Control is a lond HTML document so I wo't post all that here, but the header is:
<%@ Control Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="customerForm.ascx.vb" Inherits="Controls_customerData" %>
Code behind:
Partial Public Class Controls_customerData
Inherits System.Web.UI.UserControl
Private _customerID As Integer
Public Property customerID() As Integer
Get
Return _customerID
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Integer)
_customerID = value
End Set
End Property
Private _ShowBankDetails As Boolean
Public Property ShowBankDetails() As Boolean
Get
Return _ShowBankDetails
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Boolean)
_ShowBankDetails = value
End Set
End Property
Public Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
Me.bankDetails.Visible = Me.ShowBankDetails
End Sub
Public Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
' Add required Javascript or CSS for the web Control
Dim customerJS As New HtmlGenericControl("script")
customerJS.Attributes.Add("type", "text/javascript")
customerJS.Attributes.Add("src", "/Scripts/customerControl.js")
Page.Header.Controls.Add(customerJS)
If customerID <> 0 Then
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(customerControlIDController, GetType(HtmlGenericControl), "findUSer", "$(document).ready(function () { getCustomerByNumeric('id', '" & customerID & "'); });", True)
End If
End Sub
End Class
My guess is that you're having a page lifecycle issue. At what point in the control codebehind are you trying to access the property? If you debug, you'll probably see that the value isn't quite ready.
Perhaps paste some code from the control codebehind.
