Sequence of Validator Error Messages

Hi Team,

How I can specify the sequence of validator messages ? I tryed setting
"tabindex" property. but of no use.

Thanks in advance

CheeeeeeeeeeersHi,

You can change the order of the <asp:VALIDATOR> webcontrols in your HTML
file
to the order in which you want the messages displayed.

It's there due to inheritence from WebControl.

serialization - include collection property

Why the collection property is not included in the ouput
serialization ?

I have a custom generic collection (implements icollection): Events of
objects: Event.

Event is a simple class exposing, let's say, one property: name

Public Class Event
<XmlAttribute("name")_
Public EventName As string
end class

Events Implements ICollection
Public EventColor as string
......

Everything works except when I save the xml file I'm expecting to get
smth like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<events xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" EVENTCOLOR="some color">
<event eventname="some name" />
</events>

EVENTCOLOR attribute is not in the xml, any idea ?

Thanks,
xkeIn your example EventColor isn't a part of the class Event, and thus
wouldn't get serialized along with it. The only member Event has is
EventName. Is EventName getting serialized? What output are you getting?

Hi Andrew,

Yes, EventName gets serialized as member of Event class. Question
would be: why the parent collection class properties don't get
serialized ?
Problem I have is not with the Event class but with Events class (the
collection). I thought Events class members will be also serialized.

It's quite basic what I am trying to do, it should work. If you have
any ideas pls help.

Thanks,
xke

Sorry. Misread your original post.

According to this article the Serializer only supports writing out the
actual objects contained in an ICollection and not the actual properties of
the collection itself.

http://www.diranieh.com/NETSerializ...rialization.htm
I would recommend a slight restructuring to something like this

class Events
{
public string EventColor;
private List<Eventm_Events;
public Event[] UpcomingEvents
{
get { return m_Events.ToArray(); }
set {
m_Events = new List<Event>();
m_Events.AddRange(value);
}
}
}

Then serialize the Events class.

serialize class to the viewstate

I am trying to serialize a class called Order to the ViewState. Order has
one property called LineItems, which is an ArrayList. The ArrayList holds
instances of a class named LineItem. Bother Order and LineItem are marked
with the <Serializable> attribute.

When I attempt to serialize the class using this code:

Dim xs As XmlSerializer = New XmlSerializer(GetType(Order))

Dim sw As New StringWriter()

xs.Serialize(sw, _Order)

ViewState("LineItems") = sw.ToString()

On the line xs.Serialize(sw, _Order), I get an error that reads:

The type LineItem was not expected. Use the XmlInclude or SoapInclude
attribute to specify types that are not known statically.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Craig BuchananYou may have to specify what the array list holds with the XmlElement
attribute.

I have a list that holds two different types and I had to do apply the
following to the array list:
<XmlElement(Type:=GetType(StringCriteriaField)),
XmlElement(Type:=GetType(IntegerCriteriaField))
