Creating Dynamic controlsGuys , this is an easy one for you pros out their,
i am trying to creating dynamic controls in asp.net, i use a placeholder control and create all the text boxes and label in it and it does it pretty good, but the problems is that all the controls are created in a horizonatal way i.e right next to each other, if i have 10 controls all of them are created right next to each other, but i want to create them in vertical style so that i have 3 controls each (out of 12) in a rows, and have 4 rows, is their any way that you kow of to do it? do i have to use a TABLE? let me know thanks If the controls are of the same type, you may use the DataList to render them
in a table layout by setting the datalist's properties: RepeatLayout= Table and RepeatColumns =3 http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.datalist_properties(VS.80).aspx Show quoteHide quote "sameer" wrote: > Guys , this is an easy one for you pros out their, > > i am trying to creating dynamic controls in asp.net, i use a placeholder > control and create all the text boxes and label in it and it does it pretty > good, but the problems is that all the controls are created in a horizonatal > way i.e right next to each other, if i have 10 controls all of them are > created right next to each other, but i want to create them in vertical style > so that i have 3 controls each (out of 12) in a rows, and have 4 rows, is > their any way that you kow of to do it? do i have to use a TABLE? > > let me know thanks Philips, thanks for your help i am now done withthat part, i used a
placeholder( not creating it dyamically but adding it manullay to the webform) and create a table in it and the added controls to it;s rows, works pretty well. but now i am stuck with another issue, These dynamic text boxes have values in them, when i hit on Submit and in the Submit event of the button when i check the placeholder it does not have those values any more!! aggravation, right when i thought i was all done, so now the questions is how can i get the values from the dynamicall created text boxes? thanks, waiting on your reply.

initialization stage of every postback. 2- Make sure you gave each a unique ID, e.g. TextBox1.Id="TextBox1". (This would have been done automatically for you had you used the datalist instead of a place holder) 3- Use the FindControl method on the container object to get a reference to each control by its ID (had you used the datalist you would have looped through its ListItems and called the ListItem.FindControl method) Show quoteHide quote "sameer" wrote: > Philips, thanks for your help i am now done withthat part, i used a > placeholder( not creating it dyamically but adding it manullay to the > webform) and create a table in it and the added controls to it;s rows, works > pretty well. but now i am stuck with another issue, These dynamic text boxes > have values in them, when i hit on Submit and in the Submit event of the > button when i check the placeholder it does not have those values any more!! > aggravation, right when i thought i was all done, so now the questions is how > can i get the values from the dynamicall created text boxes? > > thanks, waiting on your reply. > Sameer > > "Phillip Williams" wrote: > > > If the controls are of the same type, you may use the DataList to render them > > in a table layout by setting the datalist's properties: RepeatLayout= Table > > and RepeatColumns =3 > > http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.datalist_properties(VS.80).aspx > > -- > > HTH, > > Phillip Williams > > http://www.societopia.net > > http://www.webswapp.com > > > > > > "sameer" wrote: > > > > > Guys , this is an easy one for you pros out their, > > > > > > i am trying to creating dynamic controls in asp.net, i use a placeholder > > > control and create all the text boxes and label in it and it does it pretty > > > good, but the problems is that all the controls are created in a horizonatal > > > way i.e right next to each other, if i have 10 controls all of them are > > > created right next to each other, but i want to create them in vertical style > > > so that i have 3 controls each (out of 12) in a rows, and have 4 rows, is > > > their any way that you kow of to do it? do i have to use a TABLE? > > > > > > let me know thanks thanks Philip, did the trick.
