Dynamic HTML ToolTip that loads OnHover/OnMouseOver

right now i have a web app that has a repeater (rather large) with a literal for one of the columns. this literal is a number based on the amount of entries and on load has javascript added to it that displays row specific information built from a database when you hover over it. the problem is that every time the page loads, every tooltip is loaded. i want to only go to the DB and get this info when they hover over that literal. so onmouseover of this literal would trigger an event that builds the tooltip and displays it as before.

i've searched this forum (which by the way isn't efficient) along with some good old Google hunting with no luck. can anyone point me in the right direction? oh yeah, i also would prefer not to use some random 3rd party tool. =)

This is fairly easy. Follow this tutorial:http://ajax.asp.net/docs/tutorials/ConsumingWebServicesWithAJAXTutorial.aspx except that in the 'OnComplete' javascript function that fires when the web service returns, have it fill whatever container you're currently using to display the tooltip (mostly this ends up being the title attribute of one element or another).


I'll check it out and see how it goes. Thanks for the reply =)

Dynamic association between UpdatePanel and UpdateProgress not working

Hi,

I haven't really used the ASP.NET AJAX framework before and I'm trying to get this to work without any luck. On my page is a repeater control and in its itemtemplate I generate an UpdatePanel and an UpdateProgress control (and a couple of other items) along with a LinkButton. The UpdatePanel has another repeater inside it. The idea is when I click on of the LinkButtons, it binds a datasource to the innermost repeater and refreshes the associated UpdatePanel (the panel is set to Conditional updatemode). It all works well but the associated UpdateProgress doesn't show, ever.

I've tried declarative setting the AssociatedUpdatePanelID in my ASP.NET code and I've tried to set it programatically in the ItemDataBound property of the outermost repeater (I've tried setting it to ID, ClientID and UniqueID) with no luck. If I leave the AssociatedUpdatePanelID untouched it sort of work but the problem is that ALL UpdateProgress controlls are displayed when a LinkButton is pressed.

The following experimentation code is the one I've been trying to make it work
 <asp:scriptmanager id="ScriptManager1" runat="server"> </asp:scriptmanager> <asp:repeater id="rptAlternatives" runat="server" onitemcreated="rptAlternatives_ItemCreated" onitemdatabound="rptAlternatives_ItemDataBound"> <itemtemplate> <div style="border: 1px solid #000; width: 300px; height: 100px; margin: 10px 0 10px 0;"> <asp:linkbutton id="lnkToggleSementPanel" runat="server" text="Toggle segments"></asp:linkbutton> <asp:updateprogress id="progress" runat="server" AssociatedUpdatePanelID="updSegmentPanel"> <ProgressTemplate> Loading... </ProgressTemplate> </asp:updateprogress> <asp:updatepanel id="updSegmentPanel" runat="server" updatemode="Conditional"> <contenttemplate> <asp:repeater id="rptSegments" runat="server"> <headertemplate> <div style="background-color: red; width: 100%;"> </headertemplate> <itemtemplate><%# Container.DataItem%> </itemtemplate> <footertemplate> </div> </footertemplate> </asp:repeater> </contenttemplate> </asp:updatepanel> </div> </itemtemplate> </asp:repeater>

//progress.AssociatedUpdatePanelID = updSegmentPanel.ClientID;
//progress.AssociatedUpdatePanelID = updSegmentPanel.UniqueID;
//progress.AssociatedUpdatePanelID = updSegmentPanel.ID;
}
}
}
}

void lnkToggleSementPanel_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
LinkButton lnkToggleSementPanel = senderas LinkButton;
if (lnkToggleSementPanel !=null)
{
Control parentControl =
lnkToggleSementPanel.Parent;
UpdatePanel updSegmentPanel = parentControl.FindControl("updSegmentPanel")as UpdatePanel;

if (updSegmentPanel !=null)
{
Repeater rptSegments = updSegmentPanel.FindControl("rptSegments")as Repeater;
if( rptSegments !=null )
{
List<int> items =new List<int>();
for (int i = 0; i <= Convert.ToInt32(lnkToggleSementPanel.CommandArgument); i++)
items.Add(i);

rptSegments.DataSource = items;
rptSegments.DataBind();
updSegmentPanel.Update();

// Delay added for debugging
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}
}


}
}

Another thing that I've found strange is that if I move the assigning of the AssociatedUpdatePanelID property FROM ItemDataBound TO ItemCreated it all stops working and if you check the generated control ID's they've not been given proper IDs, i.e the NamingContainer stops working

No takers on this one? It appears Im just missing one piece of the puzzle but I can't figure out which oneSad


Hi,

Here is a working sample:

Duplicate ID error for ReorderList in Repeater

I have a ReorderList in a Repeater and it's giving me "duplicate id" error because ReorderList is generating the same id for the DragDropBehavior. Is this a bug in ReorderList? Does someone know how to fix it temporarily in the source codes?

I think I find the fix. In ReorderList.cs ln 628, change from ID to ClientID will fix the problem.

dwp.ID =this.ClientID +"_behavior";


Hi aching,

This is related to a known issue affecting all our controls that wrap extenders. We hope to fix it pretty soon.

Thanks,
Ted

DropShadowExtender with a Repeater

Hello all

Anyone know how I make this work.

I am trying to useDropShadowExtender with a Repeater.

I have tried.

When I have my DropShadowExtender code outside of my Repeater the DropShadowExtender can not find my panel.

When I put DropShadowExtender in the Repeater I get duplcate use of id error.

When use a DataBinder in the ID for the DropShadowExtender I getAtlasControlToolkit.DropShadowProperties does not have a DataBinding event.

You probably don't need an ID field in your DropShadowProperties declaration. If you've got one in there, just remove it, that should resolve the duplicate ID issue.

For the second issue, ASP.NET generally doesn't let you databind to non-control items, such as the DropShadowProperties class. You'll have to do this databinding in your DataBound event for the repeater. See an example of this at:
