how to write/code javascript(mouseover event) using c# methods/ c# code - c#

note
yes client side must be java script but my qustion is not that.
i am asking that can i use c# language to implement "actions" fired on "click side events" such as mouse over
the reason for this stupid question is that i remember some syntax of registering functions for particular events of formview, which are call when the event occurs (yes there ispostback involved"
is something like the above possible for client side events using c# or even vb.net
heres a scrap of what i am trying to ask
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label3.Text = "this is label three";
Label3.Attributes.Add("OnMouseOver", "testmouseover()");
}
protected void testmouseover()
{
Label4.Text = "this is label 4 mouse is working!!";
}

That is not possible.
You can use AJAX, but you cannot use AJAX to directly manipulate the DOM.
You can use an UpdatePanel, but not (easily) for mouse events.
You can use Script#, which converts C# into Javascript.
However, it would have nothing to do with server-side code

Does ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock() have what you need?. Check here

You can do this by using page methods.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label3.Text = "this is label three";
Label3.Attributes.Add("OnMouseOver", "testmouseover()");
}
[webmethod]
public static void testmouseover()
{
// Implement this static method
}
and then on client side do this:
<script type='javascript'>
function testmouseover()
{
PageMethods.testmouseover();
}
</script>

Call a function on CodeBehind that's operated by a LinkButton (ASP.net, C#)

Hi StackOverflow Community,
I have this code on CodeBehind:
protected void Btn_Search_Function(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GV_Results.PageIndex = 0;
GV_Results.DataBind();
hdnSelectedTab.Value = "1";
}
This code is executed when I click a LinkButton. I want to call this function when another method (in the same page) finishes executing.
But I don't know what arguments to pass as object sender and EventArgs e. What is the best approach to achieve this?
Thank you in advance,
Best regards.
Ok so after 5 minutes I had the idea of creating a third method that would be called both by the function that is called when I click the LinkButton, and by the method I want to execute the same code.
I'm open to better ways of achieving this.
So, it is has follows:
protected void Btn_Search_Function(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SearchFunction();
}
private void SearchFunction()
{
GV_Results.PageIndex = 0;
GV_Results.DataBind();
hdnSelectedTab.Value = "1";
}
If you have a button called Btn_Search and you have created an event handler for the button click event Btn_Search_Click(object sender, EventArgs e).
then, in your another method you can call like:
public void my_function()
{
//This simulates the button click from within your code.
Btn_Search_Click(Btn_Search, EventArgs.Empty);
}
or
Btn_Search_Click(null, EventArgs.Empty);
or for your function
Btn_Search_Function(null, EventArgs.Empty)

Button click event error

Having just added a new button in my web application, I get an error when clicking on it, and I'm wondering if this is related to misplaced code. I will describe what/where I did, briefly. Thanks very much.
In ascx file:
<asp:Button ID="btn_rezerv" runat="server" Text="Reserve film" OnClick="btn_rezerv_Click"/>
In the ascx.cs file:
namespace CinProj.UserControls
{
public partial class FilmsList : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
PopulateControls();
}
private void PopulateControls()
{
string categId = Request.QueryString["CategID"];
string filmId = Request.QueryString["FilmID"];
....
if (categId != null)
{
.....
}
if (filmId != null)
{
......
Button btn_rezerv = (Button)item.FindControl("btn_rezerv");
}
}
protected void btn_rezerv_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string fid = Request.QueryString["FilmID"];
ShoppingCartAccess.AddItem(fid);
}
}
}
"Server Error in '/' Application.
Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using in configuration or <%# Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation. "
Another problem could be because your PopulateControls method should probably only be called when during the Page Load when it's not a PostBack. I can't tell from above, but to me it looks like it only needs done on Load. Try wrapping that call with this:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
PopulateControls();
}
}
It's likely the result of making some sort of client change that the server doesn't know about. Many times this is the result of changing values in a dropdown in JavaScript, for example.
To fix, you could:
Do away with using JavaScript for said modification
Use an UpdatePanel and add your control to it. If the client needs to make a change, trigger the UpdatePanel's update in order for the control's viewstate to update.

Button.OnClientClick question

I'm gonna post some more code to show exactly what I'm trying to do,
I'm adding the button using programming code and not markup but the OnClick won't work (giving the following error:
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(System.EventArgs)' is inaccessible due to its protection level.
Button btnopslaan = new Button();
btnopslaan.Text = "Opslaan";
btnopslaan.ID = "btnOpslaan";
btnopslaan.CssClass = ".opslaan";
btnopslaan.Click += new EventHandler(btnopslaanClick);
btnopslaan_arr[btn_count] = btnopslaan;
add_button(btnopslaan);
protected void btnopslaanClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Debug.WriteLine("success");
}
I just can't find out why this isn't working.
Anyone who can help me out?
You need to use OnClick for server side clicks rather than OnClientClick
Either you can use it inline >
<asp:Button id="btnopslaan" runat="server' OnClick="btnopslaanClick" />
Or in Code behind >
btnopslaan.Click+=new EventHandler(btnopslaanClick);
or you make it a postback call to the server. in your
aspx write:
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="buttonOpslaan" Text="opslaan" ></asp:Button>
codebehind write this:
protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
buttonOpslaan.Click += new EventHandler(buttonOpslaan_Click);
}
// mind: this method can be private
void buttonOpslaan_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//do something
}
or handle it with the AutoEventWireUp (recommended) like:
<asp:Button runat="server"
ID="buttonOpslaan"
OnClick="buttonOpslaan_Click"
Text="opslaan" ></asp:Button>
// mind: this method cannot be private, but has to be protected at least.
protected void buttonOpslaan_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//do something
}
or do it completely from code behind:
// note: buttonOpslaan must have an (autoassigned) ID.
protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button buttonOpslaan = new Button();
buttonOpslaan.Text = "opslaan!";
buttonOpslaan.Click += new EventHandler(buttonOpslaan_Click);
form1.Controls.Add(buttonOpslaan);
}
protected void buttonOpslaan_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//do something
}
or handle it clientside with javascript in your ASPX (it will not reach the server)
<script type="text/javascript">
function buttonOpslaan_Click(){
alert("test");
return false;
}
</script>
<asp:Button runat="server"
ID="buttonOpslaan"
OnClientClick="buttonOpslaan_Click()"
Text="opslaan" ></asp:Button>
Update: (by comments)
if you add the control via an eventhandler (like the onchange event of a dropdownlist), the control is 'lost' on next postback, or even as soon as the Page is send to the client (due to the stateless (there is no mechanism to maintain the state of application) behaviour and lifecycle of .Net).
So simply adding a control once is never going to work.
That means you have to rebuild the control every time a postback occurs. My preferred way to do this is store a list/document somewhere that descrbes what controls must be created each time. Possible locations are, from worse to good (IMHO):
Session
Viewstate
Cache
XML/IO
Database
After all, you are posting "data" to the server (that represents a control) and you want to save that for further use.
If the controls to be created aren't that complex you could implement a Factory Pattern like a WebControlFactory that stores only a few properties in a List or Dictionary, which is read every time to recreate the controls again (and again, and again, and again)
btnopslaanClick should be client side, in the .aspx itself have:
<script type="text/javascript">
function btnopslaanClick() {
alert("success");
}
</script>
btnopslaan.Click+=new EventHandler(btnopslaanClick);
protected void btnopslaanClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Debug.WriteLine("succes");
}

JavaScript confirm from code behind C#

I have a button on my aspx page. I want to use javascript confirm before continuing execution when clicking on that button. I can do it easily if i am writing javascript in aspx page itself . But my problem is each time the confirm message may be different. I need to check various condition to generate appropriate confirm message.
Can I call confirm in my code behind, so that I can construct confirm message from there?
What I'm trying is:
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//just the algorithm given here
string message=constructMessage(); \\ its just a function to construct the confirm message
if(confirm(message)) // i know i cant use javascript in code behind direct. How can i do this
{
//do something
}
else
{
// do nothing
}
}
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string message=
"if(confirm("+message+"))
{
//do something
}
else
{
// do nothing
}";
this.ClientScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(this.Page), "warning", message, true);
//Prints out your client script with <script> tags
}
For further reference on ClientScriptManager
I just got this link which describes different ways of calling javascript
http://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/314_Multiple_Ways_to_Call_Javascript_Function_from_CodeBehind_in_ASPNet.aspx
may be this will help..

Reference an ASP control inside a function or class method

How do you reference an asp.net control on your page inside a function or a class.
private void PageLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//An example control from my page is txtUserName
ChangeText(ref txtUserName, "Hello World");
}
private void ChangeText(ref HtmlGenericControl control, string text)
{
control.InnerText = text;
}
Will this actually change the text of the txtUserName control?
I tried this and is working
private void PageLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ChangeText(txtUserName, "Hello World");
}
private void ChangeText(TextBox control, string text)
{
control.Text = text;
}
Yes, it should, assuming it's at the appropriate point in the page lifecycle, so that nothing else messes with it afterwards. (I don't know the details of ASP.NET lifecycles.
However, it's worth mentioning that there's absolutely no reason to pass it by reference here. It suggests that you don't fully understand parameter passing in .NET - I suggest you read my article on it - once you understand that (and the reference/value type distinction) all kinds of things may become easier for you.
Of course, if you've already tried the code given in the question and found it didn't work, please give more details. Depending on the type of txtUserName, it could even be that with ref it won't compile, but without ref it will just work.
Unless I'm missing something, all you need to do is this:
private void PageLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
txtUserName.Text = "Hello World";
}
