How to use RadioButtonList AutoPostBack in asp.net c#

AutoPostBack feature in RadioButtonList
The following ASP.NET C# example code demonstrates to us how can we use the RadioButtonList AutoPostBack property/feature. RadioButtonList is an asp.net list web server control that renders a radio group on the web page. RadioButtonList provides a single selection/check radio group. Users can select an item from RadioButtonList at a time.

We can get the user selection from a RadioButtonList after page submission to the web server. RadioButtonList control has a property named AutoPostBack which allows us to automatically submit the page to web server each time the RadioButtonList item selection is changed. AutoPostBack property accepts a Boolean value.

If we set the AutoPostBack property value to true then each time we change the RadioButtonList item selection, it posts the web page to the server. If we set the AutoPostBack property value to false then it does not post the page to the server when we change the RadioButtonList item selection.

If we set the RadioButtonList control's AutoPostback property value to true and write an event handler for the SelectedIndexChanged event then we can get the selected item's text and value each time users change the item selection of RadioButtonList.

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...
