CheckBoxList SelectedIndexChanged event in asp.net c#

CheckBoxList SelectedIndexChanged Event
Asp.net CheckBoxList web server control provides a multi-selection checkbox group. this is a list server control. list server control contains an Items collection that holds all ListItem Objects. ListItem objects have three useful properties they are Text, Value, and Selected.

CheckBoxList control's OnSelectedIndexChanged property raises the SelectedIndexChanged event. this property allows the developers to write a custom handler for the SelectedIndexChanged event.

The SelectedIndexChanged event is raised when the selection from the CheckBoxList control changes between posts to the server. so when a user changes a selection from CheckBoxList control then the SelectedIndexChanged event is raised and the page automatically posts to the web server. for that happening developers need to set the CheckBoxList AutoPostBack property value to True. when someone changes the selection from CheckBoxList then the page can immediately show the result using the SelectedIndexChanged event.

The following c# example source code demonstrates to us how can we use the SelectedIndexChanged event in asp.net CheckBoxList sever control.
CheckBoxListOnSelectedIndexChanged.aspx

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

<!DOCTYPE html>

<script runat="server">
    protected void CheckBoxList1_SelectedIndexChnaged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
    {
        Label1.Text = "You Choose Color:<br /><i>";
        foreach (ListItem li in CheckBoxList1.Items)
        {
            if (li.Selected == true)
            {
                Label1.Text += li.Text + "<br />";
            }
        }
        Label1.Text += "</i>";
    }

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 - 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...
