Could not open in Design view

I have this line in a WebForm
                                                                                    <tr valign="top"
      id="<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>"
      onmouseover="document.all('<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>').style.background='d3d3d3'"
      </tr>

The designer complains with this error:
Could not open in Design View. Quote values differently inside a '<% ... "Value" ...%>' block.

The problem is in the onmouseover line.

Any ideas?

Hi emoreau,

this is because a server code is stands in the quotes
try with this lines

<tr valign="top"
id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
onmouseover='document.all('<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>').style.background='d3d3d3''
</tr>

I am getting a different error:

Could not open in Design View. Place quotes around a '<% %>' block used as an attribute value or within a <SELECT> element.

<tr valign="top"
id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
onmouseover=document.all('<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>').style.background='d3d3d3'
</tr>

try that

AerosSaga

take that out
.style.background='d3d3d3''

praneetha, on this particular line, removing the ' from the beginning and the end is working.

But what about this line:
<td valign="top"
style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px"
width="80"
style="cursor:hand;"
onclick="document.all('spdd').style.display='none';document.all('txtVal').value='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>';document.all('spdd2').style.display='none'"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>
</td>

(The problem is on the onclick line)

praneetha

onclick=document.all('spdd').style.display='none';document.all('txtVal').value='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>';document.all('spdd2').style.display='none'>
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>

try that

I am about to let this problem and pass on other things!!! In fact, this question is not for me (it is for a friend)!

<itemtemplate>
      <tr valign="top"
      id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
      onmouseover=document.all('<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>').style.background='#d3d3d3'
      >
            
            
            
      </tr>
</itemtemplate>

As you can see, most lines are commented out. As soon as I add the first onmouseover line, this result in the following error:
Could not open in Design View. Place quotes around a '<% %>' block used as an attribute value or within a <SELECT> element.

AerosSaga, I tried to remove the .style.background='#d3d3d3' and I have the same problem.

praneetha, thank you for your patience.

Here is a cut-down version of my last post (removing all commented lines). Even with this I have the error.

<itemtemplate>
<tr valign="top"
id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
onmouseover=document.all('<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>').style.background='#d3d3d3'
>
</tr>
</itemtemplate>

>>for which tag r u adding mouseover ....it should be inbetween < >

I don't understand what you are asking. I think that everything that should be between <> are in!

praneetha

<tr valign="top"
id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
onmouseover="this.style.background='#d3d3d3' ">
</tr>

try that

For this line, "this" is working. But then I have a problem on the following lines (in TDs):

<itemtemplate>
<tr valign="top"
id='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "idNatureComptable") %>'
onmouseover=this.style.background='#d3d3d3'
onmouseout=this.style.background='white'" >

<td valign="top" style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px"
width="80" style="cursor:hand;" onclick="document.all('spdd').style.display='none';document.all('txtVal').value='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>';document.all('spdd2').style.display='none'"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>
</td>

<td valign="top" align=left style="BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px"
width="270" style="cursor:hand;" onclick="document.all('spdd').style.display='none';document.all('txtVal').value='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "CompteGeneral") %>';document.all('spdd2').style.display='none'"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Description") %>
</td>

</tr>
</itemtemplate>

emoreau,

i suggest you to tell your friend to not give this problem attention - it is a problem with VS.NET and the time spent in searching the problem are useless

I cannot view this page in the designer! That's why we are looking for the solution.
