Hello DNN Community!

 

I have been trying to convert a module that Michael Washington Created that used to be part of a website project to a WAP project by itself and am having some difficulty that I hope you can help me with.

 

The Survey.ASCX file contains calls to functions that are located in the code behind file like this:

 

Text='<%# formatQuestion(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Question"),lstResults.Items.Count + 1) %>'>

 

NavigateUrl='<%# EditURL("SurveyId",DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"SurveyId")) %>'

 

This project compiles fine, but when I add my module to a page in my site I get this type of error:

error BC30451: Name 'formatQuestion' is not declared.

 

My question is: can I still call server side functions like this in a WAP? If so, how do I change the syntax to all this? If not, how would you recommend I best bind these controls?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

Thanks Todd.

There shouldn't be any problem calling code in that mannor from a WAP.  If it's not finding the right functions, I would try looking to make sure that the Inherits attribute of the control is set to the right code-behind class.

Hope it helps,

Make formatQuestion protected or public, then it should be accessible in your ascx control.

Hi Brian and Frank,

 

Thanks for the reply. I have gotten around the first problem with formatQuestion, once I declared the function public. Now I am getting this error when I add my module to a page:

 

error BC30451: Name 'IsEditable' is not declared

 

Here is the offending code in the HTML:

 

<asp:HyperLink ID="cmdEdit2" ImageUrl="~/images/edit.gif" NavigateUrl='<%# EditURL("SurveyId",DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"SurveyId")) %>'
                            Visible="<%# IsEditable %>" runat="server" />
 

Any idea why this is happenning?

 

Thanks Todd.

Does that code work from your code-behind?  It seems like there's probably a disconnect between your .ascx and the code-behind.

In the code-behind, it will look like Me.cmdEdit2.Visible = IsEditable

Hope that helps,
