ItemTemplate

Hi,
When I open my form I have the form in âReadOnlyâ status and with the width = X.
I change the width in Edit/InsertItemTemplate = Y, but I donât know how can I change the width for the read only status.
I try with ItemTemplate, but nothing.
Thanks.

Hi there,

Not sure I understand the question. Which chapter and page number is this referring to?

"Updating and Inserting Data" page 465

Code:

<EditItemTemplate>
     <asp:TextBox ID=”TextBox2” TextMode=”MultiLine” Width=”500” Height=”100”
runat=”server” Text=’<%# Bind(“Summary”) %>’></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>

I want Width="500" when my field is ReadOnly

And how is the template defined? What width are you trying to set on what? On a single piece of text or on a container maybe? Can you post a bit more code and provide some more details to make it easier for me to understand what you're trying to accomplish?

Code:

            <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Issue Description" SortExpression="DsIssue">
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("DsIssue") %>' TextMode="MultiLine" Width="900"></asp:TextBox>
                </ItemTemplate>
                <EditItemTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("DsIssue") %>' TextMode="MultiLine" Width="900"></asp:TextBox>
                    <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqVal3" ControlToValidate="TextBox1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Enter the issue description">
                    </asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
                </EditItemTemplate>
                <InsertItemTemplate>
                    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("DsIssue") %>' TextMode="MultiLine" Width="900"></asp:TextBox>
                    <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqVal4" ControlToValidate="TextBox1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Enter the issue description">
                    </asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
                </InsertItemTemplate>
                <ItemTemplate>
                    <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("DsIssue") %>'></asp:Label>
                </ItemTemplate>
            </asp:TemplateField>

Do you want to play "find the issue" for the rest of the day? Or would you rather provide some *useful description of your problem* so I can help you out and you can move on?

Can you elaborate problem in more details?
