The FormViewPageEventArgs type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  Name Description
Public method FormViewPageEventArgs Initializes a new instance of the FormViewPageEventArgs class.
Top
Properties
  Name Description
Public property Cancel Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled. (Inherited from CancelEventArgs.)
Public property NewPageIndex Gets or sets the index of the new page to display in the FormView control.
Top
Methods
  Name Description
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

The FormView control raises the PageIndexChanging event when a pager button (a button with its CommandName property set to "Page") within the control is clicked, but before the FormView control handles the paging operation. You can also set the CommandArgument property of a pager button to specify the type of paging operation to perform. The following table lists the supported operations.

CommandArgument value

Description

"Next"

Navigates to the next page.

"Prev"

Navigates to the previous page.

"First"

Navigates to the first page.

"Last"

Navigates to the last page.

An integer value

Navigates to the specified page.

This allows you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine, such as canceling the paging operation, whenever this event occurs.

Note Note

Pager buttons are usually located in the pager row of a FormView control.

A FormViewPageEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method, which allows you to determine the index of the page selected by the user and to indicate whether the paging operation should be canceled. To determine the index of the page selected by the user, use the NewPageIndex property. To cancel the paging operation, set the CancelEventArgs.Cancel property of the FormViewPageEventArgs object to true.

For more information about handling events, see Consuming Events.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of the FormViewPageEventArgs class, see the FormViewPageEventArgs constructor.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the FormViewPageEventArgs object passed to the event-handling method for the PageIndexChanging event to cancel a paging operation when the user attempts to navigate to another page while the FormView control is in edit mode.

Security note Security Note

The control in this example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.
