I define some controls inside the itemtemplate repeater, the problem is that Id is generated automatically.
This is my page:
<asp:Repeater ID="rptThreads" runat="server"
onitemcreated="rptThreads_ItemCreated">
<HeaderTemplate>
<table cellpadding="0px" cellspacing="0">
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<tr style="height:50px">
<td>
<asp:PlaceHolder ID="plcItemTitle" runat="server">
<asp:Panel id="titleContainer" runat="server" style="position:absolute;">
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkTitle" runat="server" style="float:left;padding-right:10px;" Text='<%# Container.DataItem%>'/>
<asp:Panel id="pnlEditButtons" runat="server" Visible="false" style="vertical-align:middle;z-index:100;display:none;float:left;" >
<asp:ImageButton ID="imgbtn1" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/Images/misc/edit.png" />
<asp:ImageButton ID="imgbtn2" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/Images/misc/Rename.png" />
</asp:Panel>
</asp:Panel>
</asp:PlaceHolder>
</td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
Now I will try to describe the problem:
background code:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int [] array = {1,2,3,4,5};
rptThreads.DataSource = array;
rptThreads.DataBind();
}
protected void rptThreads_ItemCreated(object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item ||
e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)
{
Panel editButtonsPanel = e.Item.FindControl("pnlEditButtons") as Panel;
editButtonsPanel.Visible = true;
Panel containerPanel = e.Item.FindControl("titleContainer") as Panel;
containerPanel.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "ShowEditButtons('" + editButtonsPanel.ClientID + "');");
}
}
If I run the page as is, the generated html will be as follows (I will only show the first 2 elements):
<table cellpadding="0px" cellspacing="0">
<tr style="height:50px">
<td>
<div id="titleContainer" onmouseover="ShowEditButtons('pnlEditButtons');" style="position:absolute;">
<a id="lnkTitle" style="float:left;padding-right:10px;">1</a>
<div id="pnlEditButtons" style="vertical-align:middle;z-index:100;display:none;float:left;">
<input type="image" name="imgbtn1" id="imgbtn1" src="Images/misc/edit.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
<input type="image" name="imgbtn2" id="imgbtn2" src="Images/misc/Rename.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:50px">
<td>
<div id="titleContainer" onmouseover="ShowEditButtons('pnlEditButtons');" style="position:absolute;">
<a id="lnkTitle" style="float:left;padding-right:10px;">2</a>
<div id="pnlEditButtons" style="vertical-align:middle;z-index:100;display:none;float:left;">
<input type="image" name="imgbtn1" id="imgbtn1" src="Images/misc/edit.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
<input type="image" name="imgbtn2" id="imgbtn2" src="Images/misc/Rename.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
As you can see, all divs get an ID ID, THIS I DO NOT WANT !!!
But if I skip this line, raise an ItemCreated event:
containerPanel.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "ShowEditButtons('" + editButtonsPanel.ClientID + "');");
The generated HTML will look like this:
<table cellpadding="0px" cellspacing="0">
<tr style="height:50px">
<td>
<div id="rptThreads_ctl01_titleContainer" style="position:absolute;">
<a id="rptThreads_ctl01_lnkTitle" style="float:left;padding-right:10px;">1</a>
<div id="rptThreads_ctl01_pnlEditButtons" style="vertical-align:middle;z-index:100;display:none;float:left;">
<input type="image" name="rptThreads$ctl01$imgbtn1" id="rptThreads_ctl01_imgbtn1" src="Images/misc/edit.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
<input type="image" name="rptThreads$ctl01$imgbtn2" id="rptThreads_ctl01_imgbtn2" src="Images/misc/Rename.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr style="height:50px">
<td>
<div id="rptThreads_ctl02_titleContainer" style="position:absolute;">
<a id="rptThreads_ctl02_lnkTitle" style="float:left;padding-right:10px;">2</a>
<div id="rptThreads_ctl02_pnlEditButtons" style="vertical-align:middle;z-index:100;display:none;float:left;">
<input type="image" name="rptThreads$ctl02$imgbtn1" id="rptThreads_ctl02_imgbtn1" src="Images/misc/edit.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
<input type="image" name="rptThreads$ctl02$imgbtn2" id="rptThreads_ctl02_imgbtn2" src="Images/misc/Rename.png" style="border-width:0px;" />
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
All divs get unique identifiers, and I really want
:
1) ? ?
2) javascript codebehind?
aspx ( wotk, ):
onmouseover='<%# "javascript:ShowEditButtons(\""+ Container.FindControl("pnlEditButtons").ClientID+ "\");" %>'
codebehind, javascript , .
