How to bind calender selected value to a txt bx - c#

I am trying to create an ajax popup calender. So When the user clicks a image button the calender should pop up and the selected date from the calender should be bind to a text box.
This is my aspx code:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtBxDate" runat="server" MaxLength="10" Width="75px">
</asp:TextBox>
<asp:ImageButton ID="ImageButton1" runat="server"
ImageUrl="~/images/toolbox.gif" />
<asp:PopupControlExtender ID="ImageButton1_PopupControlExtender" runat="server"
DynamicServicePath="" Enabled="True" ExtenderControlID=""
PopupControlID="Panel1" Position="Bottom" TargetControlID="ImageButton1">
</asp:PopupControlExtender>
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" Width="200px">
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server"
onselectionchanged="Calendar1_SelectionChanged"></asp:Calendar>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</asp:Panel>
My Code Behind:
protected void Calendar1_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
txtBxDate.Text = Calendar1.SelectedDate.ToString();
}
But when I selected a date from the calender, the selected date wasn't binded to the text box. What I am doing wrong here? or how can I fix it?

The reason it's not updating is because txtBxDate is outside of the UpdatePanel. Either put txtBxDate in the update panel with the calendar, or put it in a separate update panel.
EDIT
After inspecting your code a little more closely, it looks like you're trying to manually create the functionality that's already built into the AJAX Toolkit Calendar control.
See here: Calendar Sample

It seems that you have your targetcontrolid and popupcontrolid mixed up. I think it should be:
PopupControlID="ImageButton1" TargetControlID="txtBxDate"
You can get rid of the code-behind setting the selected date on the text field. The calendar extender should take care of that automatically.

Not able to enable Panel which is outside the update panel from the update panel in asp.net

Here is the scenario,
I have one update panel in which I have radio button.
On check of radio button I want to enable Panel which is outside the update panel.
I have tried following 2 things:
Placing the panel in another update panel didn't work.
Using JavaScript on click of radio button didn't work.
placing the panel in another updatepanel and set update mode as conditional.
You need to do one more thing
On check of radio button event you need to call update method of newly added update panel
UpdatePanel1.Update();
I hope this code sample helps you.
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="udp1" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton ID="rb1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="Control_CheckedChanged"
Text="Text" GroupName="Group1" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="rb2" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="Control_CheckedChanged"
Text="Text2" GroupName="Group1" />
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="udp2" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Panel ID="pnl1" runat="server" Visible="false">
<asp:Label ID="lblText" runat="server" Text="Text"/>
</asp:Panel>
</ContentTemplate>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rb1" />
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rb2" />
</asp:UpdatePanel>
protected void Control_CheckedChanged(object source, EventArgs e)
{
pnl1.Visible=rb1.Checked;
}

ASP.NET 4.0 Radio button checked changed event fires only once

I have two radio buttons both set as async triggers for an update panel and problem is that first time one is clicked the CheckedChanged event fires but then no matter which radio button is clicked the event never fires again.
Markup:
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoDeliveryBilling" runat="server" Checked="true" GroupName="DeliveryAddress" Text="Deliver to this address" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoDeliveryShipping" runat="server" GroupName="DeliveryAddress" Text="Deliver to a different address" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged" />
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="panDeliveryAddress" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
...delivery details form controls and validators goes here...
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rdoDeliveryBilling" EventName="CheckedChanged" />
<asp:AsyncPostBackTrigger ControlID="rdoDeliveryShipping" EventName="CheckedChanged" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
Code:
protected void rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
...only code that enables/disables the delivery form controls and validators goes here...
}
I have set a breakpoint inside rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged and it only hits the first time.
Any ideas?
Looking at the source (in the browser), ASP.NET is only generating a post back function __doPostBack for the RadioButton controls which can possibly postback.
The first RadioButton control cannot postback (because it is already checked), and as such the __doPostBack is not generated.
A work around is to add the two RadioButton controls to another UpdatePanel, setting the UpdateMode to Always. This will cause the RadioButtons to be updated (whenever they trigger the other UpdatePanel) adding the __doPostBack function to the deselected RadioButton.
Example
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanelCheckBoxes" runat="server" UpdateMode="Always">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoDeliveryBilling" runat="server" Checked="true" GroupName="DeliveryAddress" Text="Deliver to this address" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged" />
<asp:RadioButton ID="rdoDeliveryShipping" runat="server" GroupName="DeliveryAddress" Text="Deliver to a different address" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="rdoDelivery_CheckedChanged" />
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
Hope this helps.

OnClick event in Textbox

I have a textbox in the webpage.
//.aspx
<td class="style2">Start of Date:<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"
Height="22px"
ontextchanged="TextBox1_TextChanged" Width="157px"></asp:TextBox>
</td>
//aspx.cs
protected void cntCalendar_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TextBox1.Text = cntCalendar.TodaysDate.ToShortDateString();
}
Now I'm able to take the value in the textbox from calendar,but my problem is I'm not able to get the calendar to show onclick in the textbox and hide after date selected.
Can anybody help me with this please.
Use the CalendarExtender class from the ASP.NET AJAX ToolKit.
Download and usage
You shouldn't do the post backs for the selecting date.
Sounds like you want to use something like the AJAX calendar extender. This control will negate the need of the asp:Calendar control.
See below for an example.
<asp:TextBox ID="txtStartDate" runat="server" CausesValidation="true" >
</asp:TextBox>
<ajax:CalendarExtender ID="ce1" runat="server" Format="dd-MM-yyyy" TargetControlID="txtStartDate" PopupPosition="Right" >
</ajax:CalendarExtender>
The calendar will popup on click and when a date is selected, the textbox will be populated with the date selected in the format specified in the Format attribute
VMAtm is right on with the CalendarExtender.
However, if you have your own custom calendar you're using and you just need to manually pop that up via client onclick of the textbox, do this in Page_Load or PreRender:
TextBox1.Attributes["onclick"] = "showMyCalendar();";
or
TextBox1.Attributes[HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Onclick] = "showMyCalendar();";

Bring up input form on same page with dropdownlist?

I'm brand new at this, using vs2010 with asp.net and c#, and I'm trying to use a button click event to display forms on my "Add Product" page (the forms will be textbox/label based for inputting data), using items from a dropdownlist of products. Which methods are available/is there a 'best practice' for this sort of thing? I've been fooling around with an if (Dropdownlist.SelectedIndexChanged) statement, but I'm not quite clear on why the syntax requires the SelectedIndexChanged method to preclude a += or -=. Thoughts?
The SelectedIndexChanged method has the += because you are adding an event handler to a specific elements event. Is the button you click on the Add Product page? If so for the OnClick event you could just set your form details based on the DropDownList SelectedItem or SelectedIndex. You may also need to wrap that panel in an UpdatePanel so that it can update visibility without reloading the whole page.
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="updateFormPanel" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblName" runat="server" Text="" />
<asp:TextBox ID="txtDetails" runat="server" Text="" />
//More TextBox's or whatever you want
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel?
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlProductCategory" runat="server" />
<asp:Button ID="btnAddProduct" runat="server" OnClick="AddProduct_Click" Text="Add Product" />
//Code File Behind
protected void AddProduct_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lblName.Text = ddlProductCategory.SelectedItem.Text;
txtDetails.Text = ddlProductCategory.SelectedItem.Value;
}

How can i access a control within a ListView once a button has been clicked?

I need to access a label control in a listview when I've clicked a button (that is on the same row)...
Does anyone know how to do this please? :(
See below for more of an insight...
ASPX Page:
<asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server" DataSourceID="DataSource">
<LayoutTemplate>//Etc </LayoutTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblDone" runat="server" Visible="false">Your vote has been counted</asp:Label>
<asp:Button ID="voteButton" runat="server" Text="Vote" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("id") %>' OnClick="voteOnThis" />
</ItemTemplate>
Code Behind:
protected void voteOnThis(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button myButton = (Button)sender;
Voting.vote(int.Parse(myButton.CommandArgument));
// Here i would like to access the 'label' lblDone and make this Visible
}
In this simple case, I should consider using Javascript (JQuery)
<asp:ListView ID="ListView1" runat="server" DataSourceID="DataSource">
<LayoutTemplate>//Etc </LayoutTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblDone" runat="server" style="visibility:hidden">Your vote has been counted</asp:Label>
<asp:Button OnClientClick="showLblDone()" ID="voteButton" runat="server" Text="Vote" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("id") %>' OnClick="voteOnThis" />
</ItemTemplate>
now, define inside a script tag the showLblDone function:
<script>
function showLblDone (){
$(this).siblings('span').show();}
</script>
You can also call this function with a parameter if you want to show/hide on every click, or you can use .toggle() instead of .show().
In this case you must add a div (or a Panel) inside the ItemTemplate.
You need to hook into the listview row bind and add the information you want to have when clicked. Using this, you can add an attribute to the button that you read back on click, for example...
If you posted some actual code, I could probably help some more.
