Paging Bullet List Extender

I am trying to use PagingBulletedListExtender in my Project (VS 2005). When I used the demo data which was around 500 records it was working fine. But now when I have tried to connect bullet list control with more than 13000 records it has hanged. I am not surprised with this as I understand that this is a huge amount of data and no matter what application will hang. I wish there could be some way where we can get only that data which is required. One of the problem with Paging bullet list control is that the header bullet (A - B-C-D-E...) doesn't get generated till thhe time there is no corresponding data (which is a good thing in other sense). We solved this problem by getting all the records for first bullet and one record for rest of the bullet points, so this way we have specific amount of data. But I was surprised after that I could not find any other event which gets called when user has clicked the header bullet that is A-B-C-D-E-F-G........ If I could find this event I can always pass the bullet which user has user clicked and get the rest of the data. There is click event which is fired when we click any of the items in the bullet list control.

The only solution to my problem which I thought was to create two bullet controls. One for showing the alphabets and another for showing the data. I do not require the Paging Bullet control now. But I am really surprised that there is no event related to this or may be I was not able to find it. No I have to re-do this part again.

It would be really great if there is a event and some one can suggest that OR for the next version we can add this event.

Thanks,

Paging freeze after partial postback

HiI am a newbie to the AJAX stage, I created an application very similar in functionality as the to do list HDI video demo.My problem is when I do a partial page back and the new data is refreshed into my gridview the paging stops to function. You can click on the page numbers and there it will stay till I fire

a full page postback. I have an updatePanel with a Gridview and a dropdownlist included in the panel. The dropdownlist just selects different departments in our organization.

I set the updatePanel to conditionalupdate and specified my trigger as dorpdownlist selected index change, enabled the paging and enablepagingandsorting on my gridview.

What did I miss on my path to AJAX ?

Can you post your code where its freezing. Check with breakpoints?


hello.

if the dropdown is inside the panel, then you simply don't need to set up triggers.

btw, here's a quick example:

i have the following ona code file on app_code:

public class Obj
{
private Int32 _id;
private String _name;

public int Id
{
get { return _id; }
set { _id = value; }
}

public string Name
{
get { return _name; }
set { _name = value; }
}
}


public class ObjDS
{
public List<Obj> Get()
{
List<Obj> objs = new List<Obj>
{
new Obj{Id = 1, Name = "Luis"} ,
new Obj{Id = 2, Name = "Jose"} ,
new Obj{Id = 3, Name = "Jose"} ,
new Obj{Id = 4, Name = "Jose"}

}
;
return objs;
}
}

and then, on an aspx page, i have this:

<asp:ScriptManager runat="server" ID="manager" />
<asp:UpdatePanel runat="server" ID="panel">
<contenttemplate>
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server"
PageSize="2"
DataSourceID="source" AllowPaging="true">
</asp:GridView>

<asp:ObjectDataSource
TypeName="ObjDs"
SelectMethod="Get"
ID="source" runat="server">
</asp:ObjectDataSource>
<%= DateTime.Now.ToString() %>
</contenttemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>

it's working here. does it work there?


Hi LuisThanks for the reply.I am using a database queried created dataset and not a custom dataset,does this make a difference?What gets me is that after the page has loaded for a first time the paging works and after a partial postback the rest of the controls workexcept the datagrid's paging.

I'll have a crack at your code and let you know.


Hi Dexza,

Here is a working sample which is written based on your description. Please compare it with yours.

Hello.

Jonathan, i haven't run the code, but i'm curious: why did you associate a trigger with a server control that is inside an updatepanel?


Hi Luis Abreu,

Thanks for your attention. I just generated a sample based on the description of the thread owner. Yes , I agree with you that we don't need a trigger in this situation. Thanks

Best regards,

Jonathan


hello again.

well, i just asked because i might be missing something...thanks for the clarification.


Hi guys I have found my problem regarding the paging issue fromContributor post I noticed that on his properties he had only AllowPaging set to true and I had AllowPaging and EnablePagingAndSortingCallback set to true. So I changed it to false and of we go. Paging and sorting is up and running. Now I still have the problem where after selecting something different from my dorpdownlist that the updating does not work, but if I go back to the data the page was loaded with it works fine. So I have two questions. Why does the paging and sorting stop to function with a partial postback if EnablePagingAndSortingCallback is set to true. And what is wrong with the update function. Here is my code.

hello.

well, not sure on what's happening there...anyways, i'll just leave my 2 cents. first, if you have an updatepanel, i'm not sure if you'll be wining much with the grid's paging and sorting through callbakcs (if you have the time, compare the size of each request - yeah, i believe that through callbacks you'll have less to transport but you can't do other interesting things).

second, i can't seem to think of a good reason why the callback mechanism should not working with the updatepanel partial postbacks. try using fiddler to see what's happening between client and server...
