i have a dropdownlist that populates from the sql server database. populating the list is not a problem, but does anyone know how to populate the value part of the listitem.
<asp:dropdownlist id="colors">
<listitem value="1">black</listitem>
<listitem value="2">blue</listitem>
[Code]....
how do you populate the value=1,2,3,4,5 when you're populating from table in database?
If I use this code on my aspx page:
<asp:BulletedList ID="listClientContacts" runat="server">
<asp:ListItem><b>My Name</b></asp:ListItem>
</asp:BulletedList>
The text renders as literal <b>My Name</b> instead of making the text bold. The same thing happens if I try to add a list item from the VB side of things:
Dim li As ListItem = New ListItem("<b>My Name</b>")
Me.listClientContacts.Items.Add(li)
Is there a way to add HTML to a ListItem in ASP, or is there a better way to dynamically generate a list?
I have two listitems and the postback and run a function.

im making an application in vb.net (duh!) anyway i have created and coded the whole project and it performs exactly as i want it to (i dont need code help). my problem lies with the fact that my project is 2-3 parts
1.a setup form that gathers inital data about the enviroment stores this data encrypted in a config file. after inital setup this form is not displayed again. but needs to be run on both computers
2. the second form is the real application form im in the process of turning this part in to a background service anyway this form is the one that establishes the connection between two nodes it works correctly
3. the config files
anyway here is my problem i want to make this application distributional with just one file the (.exe) and have this .exe make everything else happen. it runs the setup form and creates the first config file which it does then it needs to produce a copy of just the second form and the config file to transfer to workstation #2 that will run independtly without the whole application which i cant make happen then it needs to turn both workstations application on by only starting one on either computer and invoke the other computer to start its corrosponding app also no idea how to make this happen any ideas or suggestions as to where to look to try to find my answers.im thinking i might need to make two seperate applications (a setup app, and the running app) and include them both in a project and use the setup.exe to to package them together this is a little side project that im making for my self to use to make programming a little easier so i plan on giving it out to some fellow students to test and tell me what they think so im not really worried about ease of use or complicated procedures yet but if it turns out to work and actually be of use to anyone else i would be willing to rewrite it to distribute to the masses but for now i just want it to work for me.
When the user selects a name in the listbox and clicks a button I save the name in a var called "parent".What I want to do is programmatically move the selected name to the top of the list and take that whole list and drop it in a dropdown. I started the code below but don't know how to move the selected list item (parent) to the top of the list??
Private Sub GoLower(ByVal parent As String,
ByVal lst As ListBox,
ByVal ddl As DropDownList)

I would like to add to my RadioButtonList a ListItem displaying a DatePicker on select. How do I go about adding this in code please, I mean the DatePicker? The code below is my attempt at this but does not work
Dim datepick As New DatePicker
With datepick
.ID = "RadDatePicker1"
.MinDate = New DateTime(CLng("2006-01-01"))
.SharedCalendarID = "sharedCalendar"
.Width = New Unit(100)
End With
RBtnList.Items.Add(New ListItem(datepick, "Other"))
When I run code the below, the If statement never resolves to 'True'. It always shows 'Assm' as the SelectedItem, even if I check all the checkboxes. So how do I allow 'Assm' to be checked by default AND have the code-behind see that the other checkboxes are checked?
<asp:CheckBoxList ID="qualityChecks" runat="server" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" TabIndex="8">
<asp:ListItem Text="Assm" Selected="True"></asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Text="Qual"></asp:ListItem>

I have a drop-down asp:listitem box that looks perfectly clean to me. It functions like when the first time you change a language on that page (Say, English to Swedish), it does change the text to that language.
The second time you try to change the language (Swedish back to English -- or any lang), it just reloads the page and then you have to select English a second time to actually change the page back to English.
I tried removing lines from the code behind, one at a time, but nothing changed it.
My .aspx page is like this:
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCulture" DataTextField="DisplayName"
DataValueField="Name" runat="server" BackColor="#DDE4EC" ForeColor="#465C71"

I am trying to create a single listitem that has multiple lines. When I create a newline using "System.Environment.NewLine" I get an empty box rather than the text going down the next line.
How can I get this to work? Currently my listitem is a custom structure. Do I need to change anything here so I can have multiple lines? Perhaps its a limitation of the listbox?
Public Structure ListItem
Private displayText As String
Private itemValue As Integer

The application that I am working on is a Service Desk App. I have a form there that uses a DropDownList that contains employees names coming from the Active Directory. Any employee can make a request and save it. Problem arises when an employee leaves the company and consequently his account is deleted from the Active Directory. When some other employee searches the DB to finds a relevant Service Ticket that could be of his use, when tries to open it an error is thrown that indicates that the name does not exist in the DropDownList items.
UPDATE:I am adding some code so that it can be more clear.
<asp:FormView ID="FormView1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
DataKeyNames="ITRequestId">

I am generating ListItems for a CheckBoxList control in ASP, but when I do something like the following:
...
Dim newListItem As ListItem = New ListItem("RoleName")
newListItem.Attributes.Add("style", "color:blue;")
CheckBoxListControlToFill.Items.Add(newListItem)

"RoleName" is maintained from post back to post back, but my style tag is dropped after the first post back. If I want to keep any attribute like this, do I need to re-add it every post back?

I must be missing something obvious here:
Private Class ListItem

The error message is: "Too many arguments for ListItem.ToStringDelegate". I don't get it; it expects one argument of type Encoding and returns a String.

View 3 RepliesThe following code reads an XML file and selects the CREDIT_SCORE node with the lowest value. Works fine if there is always a CREDIT_SCORE node. However, I get runtime errors if a PLUS_BORROWER node does not always have a CREDIT_SCORE child node (especially the first PLUS_BORROWER). I added /CREDIT_SCORE to the end of the XPath (and removed scoreNode references) and now it always selects the minimum CREDIT_SCORE. But I do not get the PHONE_NBR.
First - getting the minimum CREDIT_SCORE in a single XPATH is my primary need. And adding the /CREDIT_SCORE to the XPATH accomplishes this.[code...]
