Abstract
Today, we will learn how we can add the paging feature for the datalist. It should be noted that, like DataGrid, DataList does not support inbuilt paging mechanism. The essence of this article is how we make use of the object SqlDataAdapter. This object has a method called, Fill which is used to add or refresh the rows in a DataSet. Actually the method Fill is overloaded. We will be mainly concentrating the one which takes four arguments. The four arguments are DataSet, startRecord, maxRecords and the TableName. Second and third arguments are integer. Where as the TableName is the table name. So, if we say objDV.Fill(objDS, 0, 5, "sales"). The dataset will be filled with 5 records and the starting position will be from the first record. First, we are bringing the entire records from the table sales, and then we filter those with the help of startRecord and maxRecords. For our example, we will consider the table, Sales from the pubs database (SQL Server 2000).

Paging in DataList

Written on: July 23rd, 2002.
Introduction

In my previous article, we discussed how to Sort data in a Datalist. Today, we will learn how we can add the paging feature for the datalist. It should be noted that, like DataGrid, DataList does not support inbuilt paging mechanism. The essence of this article is how we make use of the object SqlDataAdapter. This object has a method called, Fill which is used to add or refresh the rows in a DataSet. Actually the method Fill is overloaded. We will be mainly concentrating the one which takes four arguments. The four arguments are DataSet, startRecord, maxRecords and the TableName. Second and third arguments are integer. Where as the TableName is the table name. So, if we say objDV.Fill(objDS, 0, 5, "sales") The dataset will be filled with 5 records and the starting position will be from the first record. First, we are bringing the entire records from the table sales, and then we filter those with the help of startRecord and maxRecords.

For our example, we will consider the table, Sales from the pubs database (SQL Server 2000).

Things that we will be learning in this article.
  1. How to populate a DataList?
  2. How to build the User Interface for Paging in a DataList?
  3. How to make user of the Fill method of SqlDataAdapter?
  4. An alternate solution for the Fill method!

Populating the DataList

For our example, we will take the table SALES in the PUBS Database. Since stored procedures are very much better than inline query, we use a stored procedure called, sp_das_sales_sel, which contains a single SQL statement. The SQL statement would be Select * from pubs.dbo.sales. And finally, we need to bind the DataView to the DataList web server control.

How to build the User Interface for Paging in a DataList?

Apart from the DataList web server control, we will provide user with four hyperlinks for navigation. When the user clicks on any othe four navigation links, we will invoke a server side method which will pulls out the proper records. We will also show the total number of records, total pages and the current page number.

Code for Navigation Links.
<table width=100% align="right">
    <tr>
        <td width=76% align=left>
        <asp:label ID="lblStatus"
        Runat="server"
        Font-Name="verdana"
        Font-Size="10pt" />
        </td>

        <td width=6%>
        <a href="datalistpaging.aspx#this"
        ID="hrefFirst"
        onserverclick="ShowFirst"
        runat="server"><<<</a>
        </td>

        <td width=6%>
        <a href="datalistpaging.aspx#this"
        ID="hrefPrevious"
        onserverclick="ShowPrevious"
        runat="server"><<</a>
        </td>

        <td width=6%>
        <a href="datalistpaging.aspx#this"
        ID="hrefNext"
        onserverclick="ShowNext"
        runat="server">></a>
        </td>

        <td width=6%>
        <a href="datalistpaging.aspx#this"
        ID="hrefLast"
        onserverclick="ShowLast"
        runat="server">>></a>
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
How it works?

Important Note: The name of the file that I have used in the href property is "datalistpaging.aspx". You should replace this with your aspx filename, unless you keep the filename as myself.

We have four hyperlinks for each navigation. On each of these, we have a OnServerClick event which will be fired immediately when the user clicks the link. For example, when the user click the link, <<, which is for the first page, the method ShowFirst will be invoked. All we have to do in the ShowFirst method is to set the current record position to zero. And ofcourse, we have to bind the datalist. Let us take a look at the methods, ShowFirst and DataBind.

ShowFirst and the DataBind method.
Public Sub ShowFirst(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    intCurrIndex.Text = "0"
    DataBind()
End Sub

Private Sub DataBind()
    Dim objConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString"))
    Dim objDA As New SqlDataAdapter("exec sp_das_sales_sel", objConn)
    Dim objDS As New DataSet()

    If Not Page.IsPostBack() Then
        objDA.Fill(objDS)
        intRecordCount.Text = CStr(objDS.Tables(0).Rows.Count)
        objDS = Nothing
        objDS = New DataSet()
    End If

    objDA.Fill (objDS, Cint(intCurrIndex.Text), CInt(intPageSize.Text), "Sales")

    dList.DataSource = objDS.Tables(0).DefaultView
    dList.DataBind()
    objConn.Close()
    PrintStatus()
End Sub

How it works?

In the ShowFirst method, we are setting the value of intCurrIndex.Text to be zero. intCurrIndex is a hidden label control which keeps track of the current record number. We also do have two more hidden label controls. They are intPageSize and intRecordCount.

In the method, DataBind you can see that, we get the total record count. We are storing this count in the hidden label web server control called, intRecordCount. Then we use the Fill method to retrieve the current page.

An alternate solution for the Fill method!

The major disadvantage of our logic is that, if we have 1000 records in the table, we are bringing all those to our ASPX pages. All we need is the records for our current page. This can be achived by modifying our stored procedure. We should have an identity column in our table. Then, we should pass the starting position and the number of records to be retrieved to the stored procedure. By this way, we will just be bringing in the needed records, which will decrease the network traffic and throughput time.

Sample output of our scenario

Paging in DataList - 25,698 bytes

Conclusion

So, that is it. We have a datalist with paging mechanism. Also read my other article which explains adding the sort feature to a datalist.

The only bug is that when we click on Page-Next link
and if we click on and after coming to last page if we
still click then blank page occurs. In this case the last
page should remain.

I posted a longer comment but I received an error, so here's a shorter one.

Replace invisible controls such as (Label)intCurrIndex with ViewState["intCurrIndex"] to remove overhead and clean up the code.

If people want my c# version using viewstate let me know and I'll post somewhere.

I have pagesize set to 20 yet on some records I get an extra page (blank) even though the 'Total Records' is always correct.
I don't understand why it does it some times.
On one page which has 6 recors then '1 of 1' is shown correctly BUT on another page that has 11 records then it shows '1 of 2' when there is clearly only one page.

Amy ideas?

Also, how do you make the 'first' amd 'last' navigation links invisible/disabled when you are on the first or last page.

Thanks

This is a very slow method of doing it... if you have 1,000,000 records it will query all 1,000,000 records each time you switch pages... May i recommend using a paged stored procedure... it will be 100x faster.

We implemented the script provided by you on one of our project but we are facing a problem and need your help for the same, the prolem is as follows:


The next button doesnt seem to work properly say we have 7 records and we set paging to 5, it shows Showing 1 of 2 which is correct but again when we click the next button it displays showing 2 of 2 but if now we again click the next button it says showing 3 of 2 which isnt correct coz there arent any more records and as such a blank page is displayed.


we are sending you the code we are using
