actually, i'm developing dynamic template using asp.net and c#.
in my usercontrol page i have a listview which is include dynamically created table. once the user edited any of the rows and press the save button before the PageLoad or PageInit i want to execute the ItemUpdating function to save the data to the database.
my listview code is as follow:
<asp:ListView ID="lv_Uc_Module" runat="server"
OnItemEditing="lv_Uc_Module_ItemEditing"
OnItemDeleting="lv_Uc_Module_ItemDeleting"
OnItemCanceling="lv_Uc_Module_ItemCanceling"
OnItemDataBound="lv_Uc_Module_ItemDataBound"
OnSorting="lv_Uc_Module_Sorting">
<LayoutTemplate>
<asp:Table runat="server" ID="table_Lv_Layout">
<asp:TableRow runat="server" ID="tr_Table_Layout">
<asp:TableCell runat="server" ID="td_Table_Layout">
<asp:Table runat="server" ID="itemPlaceholderContainer">
<asp:TableRow runat="server" ID="tr_Table_IphContainer">
<asp:TableHeaderCell runat="server">
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="th_Ph_Lv_header" runat="server"></asp:PlaceHolder>
</asp:TableHeaderCell>
</asp:TableRow>
<asp:TableRow runat="server">
<asp:TableCell runat="server">
<asp:PlaceHolder runat="server" ID="itemPlaceholder" />
</asp:TableCell>
</asp:TableRow>
</asp:Table>
</asp:TableCell>
</asp:TableRow>
<asp:TableRow runat="server" ID="tr_Validate_Table_Layout">
<asp:TableCell runat="server" ID="td_Validate_Table_Layout" HorizontalAlign="Center" BackColor="#CCCCCC">
<asp:ValidationSummary ID="ValidationSummary1" runat="server" HeaderText="You received the following errors:" ShowMessageBox="true" ShowSummary="false" ValidationGroup="VGEditTmp" />
</asp:TableCell>
</asp:TableRow>
</asp:Table>
<br />
<asp:DataPager ID="lv_DataPager" runat="server" PagedControlID="lv_Uc_Module" PageSize="25" OnPreRender="lv_DataPager_PreRender">
<Fields>
<asp:NextPreviousPagerField ButtonType="Image" ShowFirstPageButton="true" ShowLastPageButton="true" FirstPageImageUrl="~/Images/First.png" LastPageImageUrl="~/Images/Last.png" NextPageImageUrl="~/Images/Next.png" PreviousPageImageUrl="~/Images/Previous.png" />
<asp:TemplatePagerField>
<PagerTemplate>
<span style="color:Blue;">
</span>
</PagerTemplate>
</asp:TemplatePagerField>
</Fields>
</asp:DataPager>
</LayoutTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TableRow runat="server">
<asp:TableCell runat="server">
<asp:Table runat="server" ID="Table_Lv_ItemTemplate"></asp:Table>
</asp:TableCell>
<asp:TableCell runat="server">
<asp:Button ID="btn_Edit" runat="server" CommandName="Edit" Text="" CssClass="btn_Edit" CausesValidation="True" Visible="false" />
<asp:Button ID="btn_Delete" runat="server" CommandName="Delete" Text="" CssClass="btn_Delete" CausesValidation="false" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this item?');" Visible="false" />
</asp:TableCell>
</asp:TableRow>
</ItemTemplate>
and my ItemDataBound function which is include the dynamic table code is as follow:
protected void lv_Uc_Module_ItemDataBound(object sender, ListViewItemEventArgs e)
{
if (tempDataBound == 0 && !"".Equals(hid_ChooseModule.Value) && hid_SaveClicked.Value != "1")
{
XmlDocument xDocRead = new XmlDocument();
xDocRead.Load(Server.MapPath("ModuleTemp.xml"));
lv_Uc_Module_DataBind("");
Table table_Lv_ItemTemplate = (Table)e.Item.FindControl("Table_Lv_ItemTemplate");
table_Lv_ItemTemplate.Controls.Clear();
rowCounter = 0;
tempDataBound++;
}
if (e.Item.ItemType == ListViewItemType.DataItem )
{
XmlDocument xDocRead = new XmlDocument();
xDocRead.Load(Server.MapPath("ModuleTemp.xml"));
string xModuleName = hid_ChooseModule.Value;

TableRow tr_DataBound = new TableRow();
TableRow tr_Lv_Header = new TableRow();
if (!"".Equals(hid_ChooseModule.Value))
{

}
else
{

}
int pkCounter = 0, nonPkCounter = 0, colCount = xColCounter.ChildNodes.Count;
string[] primaryKey = new string[30];
string[] nonPrimaryKey = new string[colCount + 1];
for (int i = 1; i <= colCount; i++)
{
if (xDocRead.SelectSingleNode("ModuleTemp/" + xModuleName + "/Edit/TableColumn" + i).Attributes.GetNamedItem("IsPrimaryKey").Value == "Y")
{

pkCounter++;
}
else
{
nonPrimaryKey[nonPkCounter] = xDocRead.SelectSingleNode("ModuleTemp/" + xModuleName + "/Edit/TableColumn" + i).Attributes.GetNamedItem("Name").Value;
nonPkCounter++;
}
}
System.Data.DataRowView rowView = e.Item.DataItem as System.Data.DataRowView;
for (int i = 0; i < pkCounter + nonPkCounter; i++)
{
dataBoundTemp[rowCounter, i] = rowView[i].ToString();
}
rowCounter++;
TableCell tc_Lv_Header = new TableCell();
if (!"".Equals(hid_ChooseModule.Value))
{
if (tempHeader == 0)
{
tempHeader++;
for (int i = 1; i <= pkCounter + nonPkCounter; i++)
{
tc_Lv_Header = new TableCell();
Label lb = new Label();
if (i <= pkCounter)
{
lb.Text = primaryKey[i - 1];
}
else
{
lb.Text = nonPrimaryKey[i - pkCounter - 1];
}
lb.ID = "lb" + i + "_Table_IphContainer";
tc_Lv_Header.Controls.Add(lb);
tc_Lv_Header.CssClass = "th_ItemTemplate";
tr_Lv_Header.Cells.Add(tc_Lv_Header);
}
tr_Lv_Header.Cells.Add(tc_Lv_Header);
table_Header.Rows.Add(tr_Lv_Header);
PlaceHolder th_Ph_Lv_Hedear = (PlaceHolder)lv_Uc_Module.FindControl("th_Ph_Lv_header");
th_Ph_Lv_Hedear.Controls.Add(table_Header);
}
}
TableCell tc_DataBound = new TableCell();
if (editTempSelection == e.Item.DataItemIndex)
{
for (int i = 1; i <= pkCounter + nonPkCounter; i++)
{
//tc_DataBound = new TableCell();
tc_DataBound = new TableCell();
TextBox tb = new TextBox();
//(TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("td_EditTemp" + i);
tb.Width = 110;

// add button to the columns

table_Lv_ItemTemplate = (Table)e.Item.FindControl("Table_Lv_ItemTemplate");
table_Lv_ItemTemplate.Rows.Add(tr_DataBound);
}
}
the problem is once the user click on the save button the ItemUpdating function never executed. i have used bellow method to call the function on save button click but does not work.
btn_Update.Command += new CommandEventHandler(lv_Uc_Module_ItemUpdating);
btn_Update.CommandName = e.Item.DataItemIndex.ToString();
could you pplease guide me what should i do to prevent from pageLoad and call the ItemUpdating function on save button click. appreciate your consideration.
