I have a grid view in my main page and I display some data for user(using BindGrid method).this grid view has some command buttons for each row that perform some operation like Update. when user clicks on update button I show to him/her a user control to update values.and when user clicks on update I want grid bind to new data(I want call BindGrid for new data). How I can do this and call a method in main page from user control?
Edit 1)
I wrote this code for user control:
public partial class SomeUserControl : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
public event EventHandler StatusUpdated;
private void FunctionThatRaisesEvent()
{
if (this.StatusUpdated != null)
this.StatusUpdated(new object(), new EventArgs());
}
public void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//....
}
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
FunctionThatRaisesEvent();
}
}
and the designer for user control :
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="SomeUserControl.ascx.cs" Inherits="SomeUserControl" %>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Update" Height="70px"
onclick="Button1_Click" Width="183px" />
and add this code for main page:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void Unnamed1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SomeUserControl userControl = (SomeUserControl)LoadControl("SomeUserControl.ascx");
userControl.StatusUpdated += new EventHandler(userControl_StatusUpdated);
Panel1.Controls.Add(userControl);
}
void userControl_StatusUpdated(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GetDate();
}
private void GetDate()
{
TextBox1.Text = DateTime.Today.ToString();
}
and designer for main page:
<%@ Register src="SomeUserControl.ascx" tagname="SomeUserControl" tagprefix="uc1" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">

</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>
<div>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="upd1" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button runat="server" Text="Add User Control" Height="44px" ID="Nims"
onclick="Unnamed1_Click" Width="133px" />
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" BackColor="#FFFFCC"></asp:Panel>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
but it does not work and nothing happend. even I add break point for click user control button code but it seems that event not raise.
Raise the event from the user control, and handle the event from the main page. Check out this question.
//** EDIT **//
You are adding the user control dynamically on button click. When you click the button on your user control it first will initiate postback on the main page – now your user control no longer exists (which is why the event is not raised). If you change your main page designer to look like this:
and your code-behind to look like this
you will see what I mean. Try setting breakpoints on the page load events of your main page and your user control to see exactly the order in which things happen.
