ASP.NET - Gridview not refreshing on Postback


Question

Guys,

I have this web app that I am developing that is my first project using ASP.NET 2.0, so I am learning a lot as I go. I have run into a particular issue that I am not sure how to best fix. Here is the deal:

On a particular page I have 2 Gridview Controls. Gridview1 shows a list of features an item has, and GridView2 shows a list of features available. Each Gridview control has a template column with checkboxes. In Addition, there a button associated with Gridview1, that when pressed, will remove the checked features from the item. GridView2 has a button for it that will add the checked features to the item. I have all my logic functioning properly, and things are properly assigned and removed, but I can only see this if I navigate away from the page and then come back. These changes are not reflected in the postback when I press either button.

This brings me to my question, what is the best way I can make these Gridview's refresh their data on postback? If it matters, the gridviews are receiving their data from an ObjectDataSource and a custom method that returns a class which extends / implements BaseCollection.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

I just answered my own question. For those interested, I set the EnableViewState property on the ObjectDataSource to false and this solved my problem. Thanks for looking.

There must be something else going on. Disabling ViewState generally for databinding controls is not a good thing.

As stewright said, calling the DataBind method will refresh it.

    • I can't believe it was only two years since the last time MS raised their prices and now they think they can do it again so soon. Of course they needed to backtrack on this. I hope Nintendo is next.
    • I guess I gotta be even more specific then since I'm looking for an absolute confirmation.  The mini PC has never booted up or powered on by me. I'm assuming it'll be like buying a new PC from a store. Nothing is set up. Like absolutely nothing on the mini PC because I can't emphasize this enough. My USB drive already has Windows set up on it from my other desktop so I know it's clean. So now I connect it to the mini PC before it's even booted up or go to the desktop. I then turn on the mini PC and boot into the USB drive. I should see an existing partition. I'll delete it and then install Windows again over the entire drive. I don't necessarily want to create a separate partition. Once it installs and boots to the desktop, I'm assuming the drive is "clean" and free of any malware/viruses. Basically, this process will eliminate any potential for malware/viruses to still somehow hide in the SSD and then potentially affect me later.  I'm being very anal about this because I really don't trust anything bought from AliExpress, but the price was very tempting.  Is Windows Defender reliable? Afterwards, if I do a full scan and it doesn't find anything in the SSD and the USB drive, can I be confident the mini PC is now safe and secured to enter my banking credentials? If not, what else can I do to be absolutely certain?
    • I got an ESR Qi2 vent charger for my car and it's fantastic. It's very strong magnet and holds the phone securely over the worst potholes/roads, and my iPhone does charge. In Summer, the AC blows on the vent keeps and keeps the phone cold. In winter, I just close that vent, so it still stays cold. I agree with you on the Android front. Why not just build in the magnets like Apple does? It's frustrating to buy a case that adds magnets.
    • Hey, I've been using Windows since I was a little tyke. But for the last 15 years, I have been using Linux. I'm using EndeavourOS/Arch atm. wipe it, as in deleting anything from the SSD in the computer. Make a new partition. USB booting device should be free of malware, as long as you download it directly friom MS. Not some XYZ company.
    • "Nuking it" is slang for doing a clean install. USB installation media... delete the partition... start fresh.
