asp.net - Add an item to a RadioButtonList programmatically

Add list item to RadioButtonList programmatically
RadioButtonList is an ASP.NET list web server control that allows us to render a single selection radio button group in the web browser. RadioButtonList control contains an item collection that holds all ListItem objects. We can populate a RadioButtonList control statically by declarative syntax. We also can populate a RadioButtonList control dynamically by data binding with a data source object.

RadioButtonList server control has built-in properties and methods to customize it. We can change the default look and feel of a RadioButtonList control. Even we can programmatically add or remove items from its items collection at run time.

Each ListItem object has three possible properties those are Text, Value, and Selected. We can create a ListItem object programmatically. We also can add this ListItem object to RadioButtonList control's Items collection programmatically. Items collection's Add(ListItem) method allows us to programmatically add a ListItem object to its collection.

Add method requires an argument that accepts a ListItem object. After adding a ListItem object to the items collection the RadioButtonList control displays this item in its radio button list.

The following ASP.NET C# example code demonstrates to us how can we add item in RadioButtonList server control programmatically at run time.
RadioButtonListAddItem.aspx

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<script runat="server">
    protected void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
    {
        ListItem li = new ListItem();
        li.Text = TextBox1.Text.ToString();
        RadioButtonList1.Items.Add(li);
        Label1.Text = "ListItem added in RadioButtonList: " + li.Text;
    }
</script>

Restricting Jetpack Compose TextField to Numeric Input Only

Jetpack Compose has revolutionized Android development with its declarative approach, enabling developers to build modern, responsive UIs more efficiently. Among the many components provided by Compose, TextField is a critical building block for user input. However, ensuring that a TextField accepts only numeric input can pose challenges, especially when considering edge cases like empty fields, invalid characters, or localization nuances. In this blog post, we'll explore how to restrict a Jetpack Compose TextField to numeric input only, discussing both basic and advanced implementations. Why Restricting Input Matters Restricting user input to numeric values is a common requirement in apps dealing with forms, payment entries, age verifications, or any data where only numbers are valid. Properly validating input at the UI level enhances user experience, reduces backend validation overhead, and minimizes errors during data processing. Compose provides the flexibility to implement ...

jetpack compose - TextField remove underline

Compose TextField Remove Underline The TextField is the text input widget of android jetpack compose library. TextField is an equivalent widget of the android view system’s EditText widget. TextField is used to enter and modify text. The following jetpack compose tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can remove (actually hide) the underline from a TextField widget in an android application. We have to apply a simple trick to remove (hide) the underline from the TextField. The TextField constructor’s ‘colors’ argument allows us to set or change colors for TextField’s various components such as text color, cursor color, label color, error color, background color, focused and unfocused indicator color, etc. Jetpack developers can pass a TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors() function with arguments value for the TextField ‘colors’ argument. There are many arguments for this ‘TextFieldDefaults.textFieldColors()’function such as textColor, disabledTextColor, backgroundColor, cursorC...

jetpack compose - Image clickable

Compose Image Clickable The Image widget allows android developers to display an image object to the app user interface using the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can show image objects to the Image widget from various sources such as painter resources, vector resources, bitmap, etc. Image is a very essential component of the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can change many properties of an Image widget by its modifiers such as size, shape, etc. We also can specify the Image object scaling algorithm, content description, etc. But how can we set a click event to an Image widget in a jetpack compose application? There is no built-in property/parameter/argument to set up an onClick event directly to the Image widget. This android application development tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can add a click event to the Image widget and make it clickable. Click event of a widget allow app users to execute a task such as showing a toast message by cli...
