I am working with a Gridview in aspx page. To be more specific, in a gridview, I'm working on a specific column called Price
The Price column value examples in the gridview should look something like this:
Price
1.50 AUD
10.00 AUD
15.55 AUD
100.50 AUD
In order to achieve this result, this is what I have tried in the aspx file:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Price" DataFormatString="{0} AUD" >
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID ="TextBox1" runat="server" DataField="Product_Price" Text='<%#Eval("Price")%>' />
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Numbers with decimals only" ControlToValidate="TextBox1" ValidationExpression="^[0-9]+(\.[0-9][0-9]?)?"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
<asp:Button ID ="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Update_Click" CommandArgument="Button7" CommandName="Update" Text="Update" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
When I bring the mouse cursor on DataFormatString syntax, this is the error message being shown:
Validation(ASP.NET): Attribute 'DataFormatString' is not a valid attribute of element 'TemplateField'
Where have I made the mistake ?
It would be helpful if the appropriate solution syntax is provided.
Try
<asp:TextBox ID ="TextBox1" runat="server" DataField="Product_Price" Text='<%#Eval("Price","{0:c}")%>' />
