Problems with Autocompletetextbox inside a cell on a gridview

Hi,

We´re experiencing problems in putting a autocompletetextbox control into a gridview cell...

The "dropdown" is being generated much below the cell where the control is...

Do you know what can be causing this problem ? where can we localize the solution for that ? code-behind, .css properties, html, somewhere else ?

Our designer is asking if is there any properties that can be set on the ".css" or within the control to resolve this matter.

Also, he would like to know if the "dropdown" generated on this control is a "div", and, if so, if he can set it properties normally.

Our control (autocomplete) is inside a cell (of a gridview control) that is inside a "AspPanel".

We´re sending you a screenshot.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Macros,

This forum was unnoticed by our web form tools team, because of this forum has been placed in the Windows forms tools section. We will look in to it and will update you as soon as possible.

Hi Macros,

Attached a sample for AutoComlpeteTextBox with GridView that works as you require. In the sample, i have included data for only StateName starting with ''A''.

We couldn''t reproduce the issue you have reported. Could you please send us a sample.

Thanks

Sivakumar,

We´re just waiting the answer from your technician to proceed with our application implementation.

Please, there goes almost a week without a solution to that matter...we´ll thank you if you could be a little bit faster.

Thanks again,

Marcos

Sivakumar,

Sorry for the post above, I was just posting when I noticed that were already a response from yours.

Well, this solution you sent us couldn´t resolve our problem yet. I´ll try to explain better our situation here :

1st of all, we have a aspx that is formed by some webusercontrols, one of which is the control that provide us a gridview with some attributes the user will set on another part of the system.

That gridview (inside a webcontrol that is located on the lower part of the screen) contains three controls inside a "templatefield" tag, that will be set to visible if the attribute type being listed (databounded) on is of that type : if the attribute is of "text" type, it will make the textbox visible. Otherwise, if is of "multiple" type, it will make the dropdown visible, or if the attribute is of "multiple autocomplete" type, it´ll make the "autocompletetextbox" visible. Sure that the other controls inside the tag will be visible=false.

Ok. So, when we have listed our attributes, we have a autocompletetextbox correctly. But, when we start typing characters inside of it, the "dropdown" shows much below it had to be. Our designer here believes it can be a problem of "div" layout. We believe that can be true, because we had already seen that kind of problem.
This can be simply corrected changing the .css, or "template" fields inside the autocomplete...

But we are not sure. So we kindly ask again for your help, explaining us how this control works internally; if the "dropdown" there is a "div" and what can be doing to correct this, in that case.

We couldn´t make another sample, just because we´re in a hurry here and it would take much time. But you can refer to the example we sent before to visualize the problem.

Thanks again !

Hi Marcus,

I have attached a sample webapplication contains a webusercontrol.The WebUserControl contains a DIV inside which, it has GridView and AutoCompleteBox.

I even made a separate AutoCompleteBox that might help to compare the two Autocompleteboxes with your issues mentioned.

Would you kindly add your code in this sample and send back to me,so that i can spot out your difficulty in time and make your project application go.

Kindly take few time in adding in this sample and update to us.

If and all you feel else, please let us know that.Your feedback is more valuable to us.
