Set Background Color Using Column Value?

Very newbie question and I hope this is the right group. I have a
table on a web page which contains info about paint colors. One column
contains the hex value for the color's RGB value. I want to display
info from the table in a grid or table and use the column value from
the RGBHex column to set each row's back ground color. I can just
about do this in my sleep in old style ASP using <%%> tags but I would
like to implement it in .NET 2. My website has this implemented in
old ASP here: www.paintmatcher.com/tool/tool.asp Any help is greatly
appreciated.On Mar 17, 1:26 pm, "TF" <TJForw...@.gmail.com> wrote:

it could be the same as in ASP 3:
bgcolor="#<%=hex_value%>"
where "hex_value" is a variable
Here's a snippet of the code created by MS Vis Web Developer 05
Express. The data from the table displays just fine. I want to set
the back color of each row based on the value of the "RGBHex" field.
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowSorting="True"
AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="AccessDataSource2"
EmptyDataText="There are no data records to
display.">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="ID" HeaderText="ID"
ReadOnly="True" SortExpression="ID" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Brand" HeaderText="Brand"
SortExpression="Brand" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Colorname"
HeaderText="Colorname" SortExpression="Colorname" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="RGBValue" HeaderText="RGBValue"
SortExpression="RGBValue" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="RGBHex" HeaderText="RGBHex"
SortExpression="RGBHex" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
Could I use ASP 3 <%%> tags inside the BoundField tag? How would I
call the field value using ASP.NET to assign to the variable? Or
maybe there's a better solution than using a GridView. Any other
ideas?
Thanks.

In this case you should rewrite a GridView_RowDataBound event.
Change <asp:GridView ID="GridView1"
OnRowDataBound="GridView1_RowDataBound"...
and add the GridView1_RowDataBound event to your code (code-behind)
C#:
protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
string c = e.Row.DataItem["RGBHex"]; // e.g. "#000000"
e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(c);
}
}
I didn't test it but it should work, I think

OK. Where do I put that C# code snippet?

OK. I may be getting this now. I made this the first line of my
default.aspx.
<%@. Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="false"
CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>
And this is the contents of the default.aspx.cs file. Renamed my grid
GridView2 by the way.
protected void GridView2_RowDataBound(object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
string c = e.Row.DataItem["RGBHex"];
e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(c);
}
}
Getting these compilation errors.
c:\...Default.aspx.cs(1,11): error CS1518: Expected class, delegate,
enum, interface, or struct
c:\...Default.aspx.cs(6,27): error CS1001: Identifier expected
c:\...Default.aspx.cs(9,1): error CS1022: Type or namespace
definition, or end-of-file expected
I feel like I'm getting close but I just can't get it. Thank you for
your help.

Mate, you have to start from the basic.
It told you that you miss a class, that is you have to define the
_Default
Remember, you said <%@. Page ... Inherits="_Default"
<!-- This is the name of your class
So, the code-behind should be like this:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
..............code here...............
}

In this case you should rewrite a GridView_RowDataBound event.

Change <asp:GridView ID="GridView1"
OnRowDataBound="GridView1_RowDataBound"...

and add the GridView1_RowDataBound event to your code (code-behind)

C#:

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender,
GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{

if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
string c = e.Row.DataItem["RGBHex"]; // e.g. "#000000"
e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(c);
}

}

I didn't test it but it should work, I think

set cell color while rendered in a datagrid

I use the code: <asp:BoundColumn DataField="EFF_END_DT"
SortExpression="EFF_END_DT" HeaderText="Effective End"
DataFormatString="{0:d}">
<ItemStyle ForeColor= '<% # MyColor(
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "EFF_END_DT"))%>'></ItemStyle>
</asp:BoundColumn>
to have red date is it is over and blue if not!
But I get an error:
Compiler Error Message: BC30676: 'DataBinding' is not an event of
'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableItemStyle'.
how can I resolve this?i think your trying to user the OnItemDataBound method
In this method you can access each row of your datagrid, and from there
determine if the date should be read or not.
in the .aspx page
<asp:DataGrid id="MyGrid" OnItemDataBound="MyGrid_OnItemDataBound" ....
then in the .cs page
public void MyGrid_OnItemDataBound(object Sender, DataGridItemEventArgs e)
{
//From here you can access your bound column and set the colors

Thanks! that was helpful.
Would you know why if the results is 2 rows the event fires 4 times
2 times with the value I axpect an 2 with " "
my vb is:
Private Sub DataGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs) Handles
DataGrid1.ItemDataBound
Debug.WriteLine(e.Item.Cells(6).GetType.ToString) 'always
System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell
Debug.WriteLine(e.Item.Cells(6).Text)
End Sub
End Class

how can I resolve this?i think your trying to user the OnItemDataBound method

In this method you can access each row of your datagrid, and from there
determine if the date should be read or not.

in the .aspx page
<asp:DataGrid id="MyGrid" OnItemDataBound="MyGrid_OnItemDataBound" ....

then in the .cs page

public void MyGrid_OnItemDataBound(object Sender, DataGridItemEventArgs e)
{

Thanks! that was helpful.
Would you know why if the results is 2 rows the event fires 4 times
2 times with the value I axpect an 2 with " "

my vb is:
Private Sub DataGrid1_ItemDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventArgs) Handles
DataGrid1.ItemDataBound
Debug.WriteLine(e.Item.Cells(6).GetType.ToString) 'always
System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableCell
Debug.WriteLine(e.Item.Cells(6).Text)
End Sub
End Class

You can use

If e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.Item OrElse
e.Item.ItemType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
' Your code here
End If

Set formatting (color) on a literal or label

We have a status message we display that can be good news (in green) or bad
news (in red). Is there a way to do this for a single literal or label? Or do
we need to have two, one set to green and one to red and just set one to a
text string and the other to ""?

....
If GoodNews Then
MessageLabel.Font.Color = Color.Green
Else
MessageLabel.Font.Color = Color.Red
End If

If you do it using a Literal you can set the Text property to the complete
markup e.g.
If GoodNews Then
Literal1.Text = "<span class='greencolorCss'>this is the status
for good news </span>"
Else
Literal1.Text = "<span class='redcolorCss'>this is the status
for bad news </span>"
End If

If you do it using a Label you might write:
If GoodNews Then
Label1.CssClass = "greencolorCss"
Label1.Text = "This is the status for good news"

Else
Label1.CssClass = "redcolorCss"
Label1.Text = "This is the status for bad news"
End If
