[.net] Visual Studio 2005 seems limited
Author
Hey I noticed their dataview method seems really limited. You can't make the results display an url. Example: a guestbook that displays a link of each persons name like previewMessage.aspx?guestID=1. They're all static. Is there a way around this? Without programming the whole code yourself to display the data?
Which version of it are you using?
There are a few:
Express
Standard
Professional
Enterprise architect etc, but I dont bother looking at those because...price range

It sounds like you're describing a problem with ASP not a problem with visual studio. Visual Studio is not a language, it's a tool with which you can compile/link languages like C++/VB/.NET/etc
Are you asking how to display a url with ASP?

Perhaps your in need of the BoundField.HTMLEncode property? It's hard to get precisely what you're asking.
If I understood You correctly, then this is how I do it in my datagrid:
aspx page:
' runat="server">Clicky
codebehind:
public string GetLink(object id)
{
return String.Format("mypage.aspx?id={0}", id.ToString());
}
aspx page:
' runat="server">Clicky
codebehind:
public string GetLink(object id)
{
return String.Format("mypage.aspx?id={0}", id.ToString());
}
If I understood You correctly, then this is how I do it in my datagrid:
aspx page:
_asp:TemplateColumn_
_ItemTemplate_
_asp:HyperLink ID="link" NavigateUrl='_%# GetLink(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "id")) %_' runat="server"_Clicky_/asp:HyperLink_
_/ItemTemplate_
_/asp:TemplateColumn_
codebehind:
public string GetLink(object id)
{
return String.Format("mypage.aspx?id={0}", id.ToString());
}
aspx page:
_asp:TemplateColumn_
_ItemTemplate_
_asp:HyperLink ID="link" NavigateUrl='_%# GetLink(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "id")) %_' runat="server"_Clicky_/asp:HyperLink_
_/ItemTemplate_
_/asp:TemplateColumn_
codebehind:
public string GetLink(object id)
{
return String.Format("mypage.aspx?id={0}", id.ToString());
}
Or...
<itemtemplate>
_ a href='mypage.aspx?id= <%# (string)Eval("id") %>'_ Clicky _/a_
</itemtemplate>
The use of Eval in stead of Databinder.Eval is recommended in .net 2.0

Are you trying to display the URL? If you are, then just set the 'Text' property of the asp:hyperlink to the same value as the 'NavigateUrl' property.
I.E.
<ItemTemplate> <asp:HyperLink runat="server" id="linkName" NavigateUrl='<%# GetLink(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "id")) %>' Text='<%# GetLink(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "id")) %>'></ItemTemplate>This topic is closed to new replies.
