Repeater Web Server Control In ASP.NET Web Forms With Bootstrap And Entity Framework

-
Happy New Year!
This post will illustrate on how to apply Bootstrap styling to a Repeater control given that the template used will be a Table element. To begin with, create an ASP.NET WebForm project. This application will retrieve Employee information from Northwinds database. Add an ADO.NET Entity Framework 6.0 to your project which will hook up with the Employee table.
Repeater Web Server Control In ASP.NET With Bootstrap And Entity Framework
Add a WebForm page to your solution then drag a Repeater control inside the div tag below the form tag. Make sure to reference the bootstrap file in your head tag. The Repeater control will utilize the table element as it's template for displaying employee information. For the record, the employee photo will be shown on the left column, while the personal details are presented on the right column. The table also made use of Bootstrap's table css classes. 
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <link href="Content/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <style type="text/css">
        .employeeData{
            width:800px;
            margin-left:auto;
            margin-right: auto;
            margin-top: 50px;
            margin-bottom: 50px;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:Repeater ID="rEmployees" runat="server">
            <HeaderTemplate>
                <table id="employeeData" class="employeeData table table-striped table-bordered table-bordered">
                    <tr>
                        <th>Employee Photo</th>
                        <th>Employee Details</th>
                    </tr>
            </HeaderTemplate>
            <ItemTemplate>
                     <tr>
                        <td>
                            <img src='Extensions/ImageHandler.ashx?EmployeeID=<%# Eval("EmployeeID") %>' />
                        </td>
                        <td>
                            <p>
                                 <asp:Label ID="lblName" runat="server" Text='<%# string.Format("{0} {1}",Eval("FirstName"), Eval("LastName")) %>' />                                
                            </p>
                            <p>
                                <asp:Label ID="lblBirthdate" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("BirthDate") %>' />
                            </p>
                            <p>
                                <asp:Label ID="lblAddress" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Address") %>' />
                            </p>
                            <p>
                                <asp:Label ID="lblPhone" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("HomePhone") %>' />
                            </p>
                        </td>
                    </tr>
            </ItemTemplate>
            <FooterTemplate>
                </table>
            </FooterTemplate>
        </asp:Repeater>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>
In the code behind, simply retrieve the records from the Employee model and bind them to the repeater control. 
public partial class Repeater : System.Web.UI.Page
{
 private NorthwindEntities _context;

 public Repeater()
 {
  _context = new NorthwindEntities();
 }
 
 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
  if (!Page.IsPostBack)
  {
   BindRepeater();
  }
 }

 private void BindRepeater()
 {
  var model = _context.Employees.ToList();
  rEmployees.DataSource = model;
  rEmployees.DataBind();
 }
}
Output

The steps below are pretty straightforward and easy to follow. I. Project Setup 1. Add a table called Students in you database. The complete script is found in this post WPF CRUD With DataGrid, Entity Framework And C#.NET 2. Create a WPF Project and add four folders called DataAccess, Model, View and ViewModel. 3. Your project structure may look similar with the screenshot provided below. II. Coding The Model and Repository Class 1. Inside the Model folder, add an ADO.NET Entity Data Model that connects to the Students table in your database. On my part, I named it StudentModel . 2. For the connectionstring name in App.config file, I

How To Insert Or Add Emojis In Microsoft Teams Status Message

Good day Gents! I was trying to update my Microsoft Teams status and was wondering if I can add or insert emoji. For editing or adding new teams status, only text fields are available and there's no emoji icon similar to writing a teams message. After googling for a few minutes, I found this link Emoji's in status which is a feature request in Microsoft Teams User's Voice Forum. So far this upgrade request only has thirty votes which is relatively small and may be considered a low priority for the product team to implement. Given the limitations at hand, I tried several approach including copying an emoji in a chat message which didn't work and later found a solution using Microsoft Outlook 365. First is to create a new email message in Microsoft Outlook and press (Window Key + .). The emoji dropdown control will appear. Next is to select the emoji that you wanted to add to Teams. Copy the emoji from the newly created email message template and paste that to Micr

Pass GUID As Parameter To Action Using ASP.NET MVC ContribGrid

-
Hi, In a scenario where in you want to pass a GUID object to an Action Parameter, the parameter might contain a null value. Since Guid is not nullable, you can't simply just pass it to an action parameter because Action parameters require nullable and reference types. You might encounter an error like this: An optional parameter must be a reference type, a nullable type, or be declared as an optional parameter Assuming you have an aspx view below: <div> <% Html.Grid(Model).Columns (c => { c.For(m => m.Price); c.For(m => m.ProductName); c.For(m => m.ProductID); c.For( "View Person" ).Named( "" ).Action(m => { %> <td> <%= Html.ActionLink( "View Person" , "ProductDetail" , "Home" , new { @id = m.ProductID.ToString() }) %> </td> <% }); %> <% }).Render(); %> </div> and an action
