Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the Footer property to access the contents of the FooterTemplate.

This example is from a larger example for the ControlToPaginate property.

void Form_Paginated(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Set the background color based on 
    // the number of pages
    if (ActiveForm.PageCount > 1)
        ActiveForm.BackColor = Color.LightBlue;
    else
        ActiveForm.BackColor = Color.LightGray;

    // Check to see if the Footer template has been chosen
    if (DevSpec.HasTemplates)
    {   
        System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Label lbl = null;
        
        // Get the Footer panel
        System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Panel pan = Form1.Footer;

        // Get the Label from the panel
        lbl = (System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Label)pan.FindControl("lblCount");
        // Set the text in the Label
        lbl.Text = "Page #" + Form1.CurrentPage.ToString();
    }
}

In this example, since no filter is specified for the <Choice> element, it will always be the SelectedChoice. To specify a filter change the element to: <Choice Filter="isPocketIE"> and include a Web.config file that defines the filters you want to use.

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<body>
<!-- The first Form -->
    <mobile:Form ID="Form1" Runat="server" 
        Paginate="true" OnActivate="Form_Activate" 
        OnPaginated="Form_Paginated">
        <mobile:link ID="Link1" Runat="server" 
            NavigateUrl="#Form2">
            Go To Other Form
        </mobile:link>
        <mobile:Label ID="Label1" Runat="server">
            Welcome to ASP.NET
        </mobile:Label>
        <mobile:textview ID="txtView" Runat="server" />
        
        <mobile:DeviceSpecific ID="DevSpec" Runat="server">
            <Choice>
                <FooterTemplate>
                    <mobile:Label runat="server" id="lblCount" />
                </FooterTemplate>
            </Choice>
        </mobile:DeviceSpecific>

    </mobile:Form>
    
    <!-- The second Form -->
    <mobile:Form ID="Form2" Runat="server" 
        Paginate="true" OnPaginated="Form_Paginated">
        <mobile:Label ID="message2" Runat="server">
            Welcome to ASP.NET
        </mobile:Label>
        <mobile:link ID="Link2" Runat="server" 
            NavigateUrl="#Form1">Back</mobile:link>
    </mobile:Form>
</body>
</html>
