Hi,
I am interested to know how I can manipulate the properties of web form
controls embedded
in the header template of the datalist.
I have a datalist that has label controls in the header template that i
would like to change the text of according to the querystring. I am able to
access all the web from controls on the page but not in the datalist
control.
I really have no idea where i should begin or what to look for. I played
with it all i can see is to get a the datalistitem and then work my through
that. But how is where i stop.
Any ideas or articles on this topic would be appreciated.
This how i am working through the controls
foreach (XmlNode anode in nodes)
{
Control c = MyUserControl.FindControl(anode.Name);
if (c != null)
{
switch ( c.GetType().ToString())
{
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label":
Label lb = (Label) c;
lb.Text = anode.Attributes["Value"].Value;
break;
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.LinkButton":
LinkButton lk = (LinkButton) c;
lk.Text = anode.Attributes["Value"].InnerText;
break;
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink":
HyperLink hl = (HyperLink) c;
hl.Text = anode.Attributes["Value"].InnerText;
break;
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button":
Button NewBut = (Button) c;
NewBut.Text = anode.Attributes["Value"].InnerText;
break;
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataList":
DataList NewDataList = (DataList)c;
break;
case "System.Web.UI.WebControls.DropDownList":
DropDownList ddl = (DropDownList) c;
foreach (XmlNode itemNode in
anode.ChildNodes)
{
ListItem li = new ListItem();
li.Text =
itemNode["text"][Language].InnerText;
li.Value = itemNode["value"].InnerText;
ddl.Items.Add(li);
}
break;
}
}
}
This is my xml file
