highlighting the text of the selected item in Ajax Combobox

Hi,

I'm using cssfriendly control adapter for menu. My asp.net menu control's datasource is a sitemap file I'm using which contains all the urls.

I have the following questions:

1. Is there a way to keep the parent menu item hovered while hovering over the respective child menu items?
2. Is there a way to keep the child menu item selected? I am able to set the css for the parent menu, however I was wondering if the same is possible with the child items.

Please help!

Thanks,

Moneka

The combobox and listbox controls in Visual Basic have no built-in support for displaying text strings that are too long to fit in the visible area of either control. This article describes several techniques to improve the readability of long strings in each control. The first technique uses tooltips to display a combobox or listbox item. The other techniques, which use various Windows APIs, include adding a horizontal scrollbar for a listbox and determining the necessary width of the longest string given the font attributes of the text. The required steps are described for both comboboxes and listboxes.

I want to apply a css class to the level 1 menu item (parent) when it or any or it's children are selected.

I've looked at MSDN documentation and any number of examples and walkthroughs but I haven't come up with a way of managing this. I was thinking something like this might work but the style is not being applied to the parent. To further complicate matters, if I try to apply a css style to StaticSelectedStyle it doesn't pick it up at all.

Menu Markup:

<StaticSelectedStyle  Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#3333CC" />

Code Behind:

        protected void MenuItemClick_NavMenu(Object sender, MenuEventArgs e)

        {

            MenuItem parentItem = e.Item.Parent;

            if (parentItem != null)

            {

                parentItem.Selected = true;

            }

        }

Hello,

I am wanting to create a dashboard page with several data view web parts which dynamically populate depending on what item is selected in a separate web part (drop down form or just a list of links).  Can someone please point me to a tutorial or documentation on how to pass data between web parts or to a DVWP?  I have searched for a few hours and not been able to find anything useful.

Thanks,

Jon

I have asp.net checkboxlist control that bounded to a data source so the number of items in the control are different from one to to another time.

I have this function:

     $('#<%=chkListGroups.ClientID %> input:checkbox:checked').siblings('label').text();

this function will return all texts for all selected items in the control as a one string.


 I'm looking for a way that when I check a check box from the ckeckboxlist control will return only last checked checkbox.

this code :

$('#<%=chkListGroups.ClientID %> input:checkbox:checked').last().siblings('label').text(); 

returns last checked item for example if I checked second will return
 second item then when I checked fifth item will return fifth item but 
if now when I check third item will return fifth item so it is always 
returning last item checked in the list and I'm looking to

Please advice me how to do this using jquery.

When we select a value from combobox list, we can get it by combobox.selectedvalue.text, however when we enter a new value in combobox, we can get it by combobox.text when submitting a form.  During submission, how will we handle this situation? Either there is a single way of getting value in both situations or we'll have to tackle both situations separately?

Please help me tackling this situation. Thanks
