My question has to do with Beginning ASP.NET 3.5 in C# and
VB. however when I post in that forum, my question simply disappears after a few hours. I have addressed this problem to tech support and got no answer, so I am trying this.
In chapter 14 the GridView on the Genre page does not respond to the css formatting. I cannot see where the error is.
Here is my markup for the Genres page:
Code:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPages/ManagementMaster.master" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Genres.aspx.vb" Inherits="Management_Genres" title="Planet Wrox - Management - Genres" %>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="head" Runat="Server">
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataKeyNames="Id" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display." AllowPaging="True"
AllowSorting="True" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333" GridLines="None">
<Columns>
<asp:CommandField ShowDeleteButton="True" ShowEditButton="True"
ShowSelectButton="False" ItemStyle-Width="100px" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" SortExpression="Name" ItemStyle-Width="200px" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="SortOrder" HeaderText="SortOrder"
SortExpression="SortOrder" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
<asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateRows="False"
DataKeyNames="Id" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DefaultMode="Insert"
Height="50px" Width="125px">
<Fields>
<asp:BoundField DataField="Id" HeaderText="Id" InsertVisible="False"
ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="Id" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" SortExpression="Name" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="SortOrder" HeaderText="SortOrder"
SortExpression="SortOrder" />
<asp:CommandField ShowInsertButton="True" />
</Fields>
</asp:DetailsView>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:PlanetWroxConnectionString1 %>"
DeleteCommand="DELETE FROM [Genre] WHERE [Id] = @Id"
InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [Genre] ([Name], [SortOrder]) VALUES (@Name, @SortOrder)"
ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:PlanetWroxConnectionString1.ProviderName %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [Id], [Name], [SortOrder] FROM [Genre]"
UpdateCommand="UPDATE [Genre] SET [Name] = @Name, [SortOrder] = @SortOrder WHERE [Id] = @Id">
<DeleteParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="Id" Type="Int32" />
</DeleteParameters>
<InsertParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="Name" Type="String" />
<asp:Parameter Name="SortOrder" Type="Int32" />
</InsertParameters>
<UpdateParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="Name" Type="String" />
<asp:Parameter Name="SortOrder" Type="Int32" />
<asp:Parameter Name="Id" Type="Int32" />
</UpdateParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</asp:Content>
Here is the Management.css:
Code:
*
{
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
}
body
{
font-size: 80%;
}
.GridView, .GridView a
{
color: #000;
}
.GridViewHeaderStyle, .GridViewPagerStyle, .GridViewEditRowStyle
{
background-color: #bee4cf;
}
.GridViewAlternatingRowStyle
{
background-color: #e1e1e1;
}
.GridViewHeaderStyle
{
text-align: left;
}
.GridViewHeaderStyle a
{
text-decoration: none;
}
and here is GridView.skin:
Code:
<asp:GridView runat="server" CssClass="GridView">
<PagerStyle CssClass="GridViewPagerStyle" />
<HeaderStyle CssClass="GridViewHeaderStyle" />
<EditRowStyle CssClass="GridViewEditRowStyle" />
<AlternatingRowStyle CssClass="GridViewAlternatingRowStyle"/>
</asp:GridView>
I am getting a warning about "no build provider registered for the extension 'skin'" I realize that is not a fatal error, but I don't recall seeing it when I worked with other skin files in this book.
And yes I did set the pages theme="Management" in the web.config file.
