Hiding a field in a repeater

J

JJ297

I want to hide the Pin field below in my repeater. How do I do this?

<asp:Repeater ID="Repeater1" runat="server"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">

<ItemTemplate>
<tr>
<td><font color="#330099">Claim SSN: </font><b><%#
Eval("ClaimSSN") %></b></td>
<td colspan="2"></td>
<td><font color="#330099">BIC: </font><b><%# Eval("BIC") %></
b></td>

<td colspan="2"></td>

<td colspan="2"><font color="#330099">BIC SSN: </font><b><%#
Eval("BICSSN") %></b></td>

<tr></tr>
<td colspan="7"></td>

<td colspan="7"><font color="#330099">Status Code: </font><b><
%# Eval("StatusCode")%></b></td>

<td><label runat="server" id="lbl"><font color="#330099">Pin:
</font><b><%#Eval("Pin")%></label></b></tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<SeparatorTemplate>
<tr>
<td colspan="100%"><hr size="1" color=#330099 /><br />

</td>
</tr>
</SeparatorTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

By hiding what exactly you mean???

Do it like <!--<%#Eval("Pin")%>--> and it will be hidden in a browser....

Or how about not to have <%#Eval("Pin")%> at all? It will be really hidden
then :)

I want to put security on the page if the person has manager rights
they will have the Pin field visible.

So I will put something like:

If Session(CSI) = true then

the pin field is visible

else

the pin field in not visible

I hope that makes sense
I want the Pin field

I see it now....
The best way to do is following....
in your code on the page make a function (C# example, but you should not
have a problem to convert it to VB.NET)

protected string GetPin(string sPin)
{
if( _iLevel > 1 )
return sPin;
else
return "******";
}


in your aspx page instead of
<%#Eval("Pin")%>
have something like
<%# GetPin((string)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Pin"))%>


Remember, Eval is the function and you always can create your own
version.....

The idea to output to browser Pin or nothing to the user if he does not have
permissions. It's a little different aproach than just hiding this column
which is in HTML word might be prefered way.

so in C# code it will be
protected string GetPin(string sPin)
{
if (Session("CSI") == true)
return sPin
else
return "&nbsp;" //or anything you want
}


And on your page you have

<%# GetPin((string)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Pin"))%>

This line will call your GetPin for every row and output sPin or &nbsp;
depends on what is in Session("CSI")

Thanks George:

Here's my function:

Function getPin(ByVal sPin)


If Session("SPSListings") = True Then
Return sPin
Else
Return "you have no access"

End If


End Function

Then on the aspx page I have this but I'm getting Container is not
declared. Any suggestions?

George I got it I left out the # in front of the GetPin. Thanks.

Another question for you. I have this in the function:

End If

How can I get rid of the Pin column all together if the user doesn't
have access instead of returning "You have no Access" Can I make that
column visiable = false?

It's cause you missing #
Must be
<%# getPin(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Pin"))%>
----------------------------------------------------
Nothing is changed comparing
to <%#Eval("Pin")%>

The Eval("Pin") method is exactly same thing as
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Pin"))
It returns string during binding time... We just plugde getPing in between
to analyse permission and modify the string...

PS:
Also since getPin is called for every row it makes sence to move
Session("CSI") out of the loop (it's a look up in a hashtable done for every
row)..

So in your Page create member variable _bCSI = false and in OnLoad event
assign it _bCSI = (bool)Session("CSI") (sorry C# again)
the in getPin do If( _bCSI = True) ...... Saves a little of runtime....

Okay don't quite understand what you want me to do. I added this to
page load:

Dim _bCSI=(bool)Session("CSI")

Getting error message end of statement expected

Then added this:

Function getPin(ByVal sPin)

If (_BCSI = True) Then

Return "you have no access"

End If


End Function

Getting _BCSI is not declared. Any suggestions? Thanks

You can not do it like that...
When you added Dim _bCSI=(bool)Session("CSI") to page_load you created local
variable that is only available in page_load
mast be something like

class clsMyPage
{
Dim _bCSI as Boolean
...Page_Load...
{
_bCSI=(bool)Session("CSI")
}

Function getPin(ByVal sPin)

If (_bCSI = True) Then

Return "you have no access"

End If


End Function

}

You can by doing
Repeater1.Items[0].Visible = false;
It will hide first column in repeater..

You are completely confused....
chose one method or another.

If you just want to hide the column with PIN then in OnLoad event do
Repeater1.Items(8).Visible = False
(column enumeration starts with 0, so it's 0,1,2,.... So Item(8).Visible =
false will hide 9th column)

If you want to show something like "no permissions" then go with a getPin
method...

But you can not do both....
