Set dropdown text selected from textbox value

In some cases we need to set dropdown list items exact text by matching the value entered in textbox. For that purpose we can use .keyup event in jQuery. In .keyup event simply take the value of textbox and assign that value to the value of dropdown. Once you set value it's corresponding text will be get displayed as selected.

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <script src="Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
     <script src="Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <title>Get dropdown value</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#topics").keyup(function () {
                var value = $("#topics").val();
                if (value == "" || isNaN(value))
                    value = 0;
                $("#topics1").val(value);
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="topics"></asp:TextBox>
    <br/><br/>
      <asp:DropDownList ID="topics1" runat="server">
     <asp:ListItem Text="--Select--" Value="0"></asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Text="C#" Value="1"></asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Text="jQuery" Value="2"></asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Text="ASP.NET" Value="3"></asp:ListItem>
    </asp:DropDownList>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Note: You may need some additional validations if user enters data in textbox that does not match to the values in dropdown. Ex. I have just validated in above code if user enters characters other than number using IsNaN


jQuery templates

jQuery templates is a useful plugin developed by Microsofts's ASP.NET team in collaboration with jquery open source team. Templates helps you to manipulate the data at client side and display in browser. It is more useful to display the dataset that is fetched from database using client side Asynch Ajax call.

jQuery Template example

In order to use jQuery templates we either need to download "jquery.tmpl.js" plugin and add reference or we can also refer it from cdn.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
     <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
     <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery.templates/beta1/jquery.tmpl.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">

      $(document).ready(function () {
          debugger;
          var loc = window.location.href;
          $.ajax({
              type: 'POST',
              url: loc + "/GetBookList",
              data: "{}",
              contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"

          })
        .success(function (response) {
            debugger;
            $("#bookCollection").tmpl(response.d).appendTo(".book-container");
        })
        .error(function (response) {
            alert(response.d);
        });

      });
  </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div class="book-container">
    
    </div>
     <script id="bookCollection" type="text/x-jQuery-tmpl">
        <div>
           <h2>${Title}</h2>
            Author: ${Author}
            price: ${Price}
        </div>
    </script>
    </form>
</body>
</html>
Here in above code below script is template to which we are going to bind the data. <script id="bookCollection" type="text/x-jQuery-tmpl"> <div> <h2>${Title}</h2> Author: ${Author} price: ${Price} </div> </script> And by using $("#bookCollection").tmpl(response.d).appendTo(".book-container"); we actually bind the data to the template and append that template to some fixed html like div.


Below code is for reference to get data from code behind method:


 [WebMethod]
        public static List GetBookList()
        {

            return new List()
                       {
                           new Book {Title = "ASP.NET", Author = "Stephen", Price = 350.9},
                           new Book {Title = "WPF", Author = "Murli", Price = 400},
                           new Book {Title = "WCF", Author = "Avinash", Price = 350}
                       };
        }

Detect IE browser | jQuery

In previous post we saw how to get IE browser in JavaScript
In this post we wiil see how to detect IE browser using jQuery. jQuery have Browser object like Navigator object in JavaScript. And using Browser object we can get Browser name, version..etc.
jQuery to get IE browser
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
      <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <title></title>
</head>
<script type="text/javascript">
    function getBrowser() {
    
        if ($.browser.msie) {
            alert('Detected IE browser');
        }
    }
</script>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    <input type="button" onclick="getBrowser();" value="Get Browser Name"/>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Output This will show alert message Detected IE browser.

jQuery check uncheck all checkboxes in gridview

In this post we will see how to check and uncheck checkboxes in the gridview. We will check and uncheck checkboxes at client side in gridview using jquery. First we will add check boxes to gridview like:

Gridview with checkboxes

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" BorderWidth="1px"
      CellPadding="3" BorderStyle="None" Font-Names="Arial">
      <FooterStyle></FooterStyle>
      <PagerStyle HorizontalAlign="Left"></PagerStyle>
      <HeaderStyle Font-Bold="True"></HeaderStyle>
      <Columns>
        <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Select">
          <HeaderTemplate>
            <asp:CheckBox ID="checkAll" runat="server" Text="" onclick="javascript:CheckUnCheckAll(this);" />
          </HeaderTemplate>
          <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBoxPurchase" runat="server" Enabled="true" />
          </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:TemplateField>
        <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Item No." DataField="ItemNo">
          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" VerticalAlign="Middle"></ItemStyle>
        </asp:BoundField>
        <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Item Name" DataField="ItemName">
          <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" VerticalAlign="Middle"></ItemStyle>
        </asp:BoundField>
      </Columns>
    </asp:GridView>

Here in above code we have gridview with one checkbox in header and checkboxes for all the rows. Now we have to check all the checkboxes in gridview rows when header checkbox is checked and when header checkbox is unchecked all checkbox get unchecked. Now we have to access gridview object in jquery.

$('#<%=GridView1.ClientID %>')

In order to get and perform check-uncheck operation on checkboxes we have to call Javascript function from header checkbox of the gridview and in that function we will find all row checkboxes like:

 $('#<%=GridView1.ClientID %>').find("input:checkbox")

Now by iterating through each checkbox item we can assign header checkbox's checked status to all other checkboxes.

Iterate through gridview checkboxes to check uncheck checkboxes

<script type="text/javascript">
  function CheckUnCheckAll(chk) {
     $('#<%=GridView1.ClientID %>').find("input:checkbox").each(function () {
          if (this != chk) {
              this.checked = chk.checked;
            }
           });
      }
 </script>

Example to check-uncheck all checkboxes in gridview

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
      <title>Check all checkboxes in gridview using jQuery</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function CheckUnCheckAll(chk) {
            $('#<%=GridView1.ClientID %>').find("input:checkbox").each(function () {
                if (this != chk) {
                    this.checked = chk.checked;
                }
            });
        }
    </script>
</head>

jQuery call page codebehind method

In asp.net application sometimes we need to call codebehind method from client script. In this post we will see how to call codebehind page method using jquery ajax.

To call codebehind page method from jquery we need to make method static. Also we need to add [WebMethod] attribute for method. So the code behind method will look like:

 [WebMethod]
  public static string GetMessage()
  {
   return "Codebehind method call...";
  }

We also need to add namespace using System.Web.Services; to add [WebMethod] attribute to code behind method.
Now we can call this codebehind method using jquery ajax like

var loc = window.location.href;
$.ajax({
         type: 'POST',
          url: loc + "/GetMessage",
          data: "{}",
          contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
        
        })
        .success(function (response) {
          alert(response.d);

        })
        .error(function (response) {
          alert(response.d);
        });

Here using window.location.href we are getting url of aspx page and by appending method name to it we can call code behind method.

Below code demonstrats how to call codebehind method using jquery ajax and json

jQuery ajax call codebehind page method

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function () {
var loc = window.location.href;
$("#btnClick").click(function (event) {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: loc + "/GetMessage",
data: "{}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
})
.success(function (response) {
alert(response.d);
})
.error(function (response) {
alert(response.d);
});
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Button ID="btnClick" runat="server" Text="Button" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Below is the code behind method that will get called by jquery ajax call:

using System;
using System.Web.Services;

namespace aspnetcontrol
{
  public partial class jquerycallpagemethod : System.Web.UI.Page
  {
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }

    [WebMethod]
    public static string GetMessage()
    {
      return "Codebehind method call...";
    }
  }
}

jQuery ajax handle exception thrown by wcf

When we work with jQuery Ajax call to WCF, it may possible that WCF service will thow an exception. And we need to catch that exception in jquery ajax error routine. In order to show or get exception thrown by service we need to configure includeExceptionDetailInFaults="True" for in behavior like:

<serviceBehaviors>
  <behavior name="">
    <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
    <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
  </behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>

Now when jquery ajax call revices error then exception comes in resposeText as Message.But we need extract Message from responseText as responseText comes as cominations of error details. This can be done using jQuery.parseJSON like:



 .error(function (response, q, t) {
          var r = jQuery.parseJSON(response.responseText);
        });

Now to get Message part we can use r.Message. This will give you the message that is sent by exception in wcf service.


 .error(function (response, q, t) {
          var r = jQuery.parseJSON(response.responseText);
          alert("Message: " + r.Message);
        });

Code for jQuery ajax handle exception thrown by wcf

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
   <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
  <title>Jquery ajax json call to wcf service</title>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
      $("#btnClick").click(function () {
        var dto = { message: $("#messageinput").val() };
        $.ajax({
          type: 'GET',
          url: '<%= ResolveUrl("~/Service1.svc/get-json/GetMessage") %>',
          data: dto,
          contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
        })
        .success(function (response) {
          alert(response.d);
        })
        .error(function (response, q, t) {
          var r = jQuery.parseJSON(response.responseText);
          alert("Message: " + r.Message);
          alert("StackTrace: " + r.StackTrace);
          alert("ExceptionType: " + r.ExceptionType);
          alert("ERROR" + response.d);
        });
      });
    });
  </script>
</head>
<body>
  <form id="form1" runat="server">
  <div>
    <input type="text" id="messageinput" />
    <asp:Button ID="btnClick" runat="server" Text="Button" />
  </div>
  </form>
</body>
</html>

Note: To test example of catch exception in jquery ajax thrown by wcf service, just throw an application exception or Exception with some message like:

    [WebGet()]
    [OperationContract]
    public string GetMessage(string message)
    {
      //return "WCF" + message;
      throw  new  ApplicationException("This is exception");
    }

Configure wcf service to call in jquery ajax json

In previous post we saw how to create wcf service to be get called by jquery ajax and json. After creating wcf service we need to configure wcf service in web.config in order to make it accessible.

wcf service configuration for jquery ajax call

Configure wcf service

  <system.serviceModel>
    <behaviors>
      <endpointBehaviors>
        <behavior name="GetJson">
          <enableWebScript />
        </behavior>
        <behavior name="PostJson">
          <webHttp />
        </behavior>
      </endpointBehaviors>
      <serviceBehaviors>
        <behavior name="">
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />
        </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
    <services>
      <service name="aspnetcontrol.Service1">
        <endpoint address="get-json"
                  binding="webHttpBinding"
                  behaviorConfiguration="GetJson"
                  contract="aspnetcontrol.Service1" />
    
        <endpoint address="post-json"
                  binding="webHttpBinding"
                  behaviorConfiguration="PostJson"
                  contract="aspnetcontrol.Service1" />
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.serviceModel>

Create wcf service to call by jquery ajax json

In this post we will see how to create wcf service in C# that we can call through jquery ajax and json. The namespaces we need in wcf service are System.ServiceModel, System.ServiceModel.Web and System.ServiceModel.Activation.

create wcf service to be called by jquery ajax json

Example- WCF service to call by jquery ajax json

using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.ServiceModel.Activation;
using System.Web;

namespace aspnetcontrol
{
  [ServiceContract(Namespace = "")]
  [AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
  public class Service1 
  {
    [WebGet()]
    [OperationContract]
    public string GetMessage(string message)
    {
      return "WCF" + message;
    }
  }
}

Note: In above code important attributes are [ServiceContract(Namespace = "")], [OperationContract] and [WebGet()]. ServiceContract specifies that class defines service contract in application.
OperationContract specifies that a method defines and operation that is part of web service contract.
WebGet indicates service operation is logically a retrieval operation. In this way we can create wcf service to be called using jquery ajax json. In order to make service accessible we need to configure wcf service in web.config.

jQuery Ajax call to WCF service

In jQuery we can perform an asynchronous HTTP (Ajax) request. In this post we will see simple example of how jquery Ajax call to WCF service works. We can call wcf service using jquery ajax and json.

use jquery ajax to call wcf service
We can use $.ajax to call the wcf service like:
 var dto = { message: $("#messageinput").val() };
        $.ajax({
          type: 'GET',
          url: '',
          data: dto,
          contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
        })
        .success(function (response) {
          alert(response.d);
        })
        .error(function (response) {
          alert("ERROR"+response.d);
        });


Here in above code snippet we have set various parameters for jquery ajax call like: type: 'GET' - means request is of type GET and not POST
url: '', here we have mentioned the url of wcf service, where Service1.svc is wcf service name, get-json is address set in the web.config wcf service and GetMessage is actual method in wcf service.
data: dto is the parameter data that we need to pass to wcf service method.

Example jquery ajax call to wcf service

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
   <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
  <title>Jquery ajax json call to wcf service</title>
  <script type="text/javascript">
   $(document).ready(function () {
      $("#btnClick").click(function () {
        var dto = { message: $("#messageinput").val() };
        $.ajax({
          type: 'GET',
          url: '<%= ResolveUrl("~/Service1.svc/get-json/GetMessage") %>',
          data: dto,
          contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
        })
        .success(function (response) {
          alert(response.d);
        })
        .error(function (response) {
          alert("ERROR"+response.d);
        });
      });
    });
  </script>
</head>
<body>
  <form id="form1" runat="server">
  <div>
    <input type="text" id="messageinput" />
    <asp:Button ID="btnClick" runat="server" Text="Button" />
  </div>
  </form>
</body>
</html>

In above example we can type some message in textbox and pass message to wcf service using jquery ajax call and get it in respose back.

Note: To run above example we need to create wcf service and configure wcf service endpoint in web.config file properly

jquery set dropdownlist exact text

We have seen how to set selected option in dropdown list by text here set dropdownlist selected option by text. In that example we used :contains selector that will look for the text and the set text in dropdownlist as selected.

dropdownlist set exact selected text
But if dropdownlist have items with same texts instance then :contains selector will get all the items with matched text. This might show last matched item selected in dropdownlist. In this case we need to use alternate way to get exact text in dropdownlist and then set it selected.

Example to set selected option in dropdown by exact text [jquery]


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
  <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
  <title>set dropdown value</title>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
      $("#go").click(function () {
        var inputText = $("#inputText").val();
        $("#numbers").each(function () {
          $('option', this).each(function () {
            if ($.trim($(this).text().toLowerCase()) == $.trim(inputText.toLowerCase())) {
              $(this).attr('selected', 'selected');
            };
          });
         });
       });
    });
 </script>
</head>
<body>
  <form id="form1" runat="server">
  <div>
    <label>Enter value from dropdown</label>
    <input type="text" id="inputText" />
    <asp:DropDownList ID="numbers" runat="server">
      <asp:ListItem Text="This is one" Value="1"></asp:ListItem>
      <asp:ListItem Text="This is one?" Value="2"></asp:ListItem>
      <asp:ListItem Text="This is three" Value="3"></asp:ListItem>
    </asp:DropDownList>
  </div>
  <input type="button" id="go" value="Go" />
  </form>
</body>
</html>

Summary: So by using :contains it might not work for multiple items with istance of same text. But we can iterate through dropdown items and then by matching exact text we can set dropdown list text selected.

Assign value to span - jquery

In this post we will see set a value to span tag using JQuer. To change value of span we can access span tag directly like $('span') and then using its .html() method we can assign some text to it.

assign value to span jquery

Example to assign text to span [jQuery]

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
     <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <title>Assign value to span in jQuery</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      $(document).ready(function () {
        $("#submitbtn").click(function () {
          var inputValue = $("#inputText").val();
          $('span').html(inputValue);
        });
      });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
       <label>Type some text here to assign to span</label>
        <input type="text" id="inputText"/>
        <input type="button" id="submitbtn" value="Submit" /><br/>
        <span style="width:500px;height:120px; background-color:thistle">&nbsp;</span>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Example to remove special characters from string - jquery

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <title>Remove special character fromstring</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#Send").click(function () {
                var originalstring = $("#txtinput").val();
                var filteredString = originalstring.toLowerCase().replace( /[\*\^\'\!\@\$]/g , '');
                alert(filteredString);
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    <asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txtinput"></asp:TextBox>
    <asp:Button runat="server" ID="Send" Text="Send" />
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>


We can use regular expressions to define the special character set that we need to remove from string. so if you want to remove * from the string the regular expression will be /[\*]/g. Now if you want to remove ! also the add ! to regular expression like /[\*\!]/g and so on.

Jquery- Get hiddenfield value in user control

get value of dynamic hiddenfield
In this post we will see how to get value of dynamically loaded hiddenfield value in jQuery. This happens when we use user control in page. In such cases id of hiddenfield get changed and so hiddenfield is not accessible from javascript or jQuery. We can't access hiddenfield using class selector also because hidden field don't have class property. In this case we can use "ClientIDMode" property and set it to ClientIDMode="Static". When we set ClientIDMode="Static" it will not set dynamic id to hidden field. And now we can access it in regular way.

Code to get hiddenfield value in user control [jQuery]

You can set ClientIDMode property of hidden field in user control like:

<asp:HiddenField runat="server" ID="hiddenValue" ClientIDMode="Static" value="Some Value" />

And in jQuery you can access it as like:
   <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#submitbtn").click(function () {
                var hiddenValue = $("#hiddenValue").val();
                alert(hiddenValue);
            });
        });
    </script>

Summary: After setting ClientIDMode="Static" it will not assing dynamic id to hiddenfield and we can access hiddenfield as usual.
