Scheduler postback problem

[Andy Green]

Hi All

I have a user control containing a scheduler in the ascx pageload event I get all the data for the scheduler

 

If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

 

LoadSessions(JobPlan_ID, Cycle)

 

Me.lblCycle.Text = "Week " & Cycle

 

 

End If

 

The control is called from my aspx which loops to create the correct number of instance on the control (The Load Session()).
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

 

LoadWeeks()

 

End If

 

I'm having trouble maintaining state across postbacks.

Using the page loads as shown whenever I do a postbask the controls disappear, if I move the loader outside of the page.ispostback code then they appear but as expected I loos all user completed fields (on a separate edit area)

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Andy,

This is a common problem when loading user controls dynamically. You can use Session or Viewstate as a workaround. Here is a helpful article for reference:

Hi Peter

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't help much. It gives 2 high level approches (no details on fix)  for users hitting the back button. I'm just doing a postback, and there are no clues on how to store the schedulers details in the viewstate. my problem is that if I hide the initial scheduler set up inside an 'If not  page.ispostback' the contol is not recreated from the viewstate data following a postback.

Hi

I've fixed this, but not sure if its the best way.

I've got it working by calling the schedule loader function on each postback  from the sub routines that are called on postback.

If there is a better way could someone let me know.
