Urgent - How to access all radiobuttonlists in a loop (c# asp.net)

G

Guest

C# asp.net 2.0.

I'm creating an online survey. I'm making a string array that's holding the
variables of the answers made in the radiobuttonlists that i create manually.
I need to make a method that loops through all the radiobuttonlists and puts
the selected answers in the string array that i've created. I guess this is
relatively easy, but I haven't figured it out..here's the code that I have
for now:

protected void cmdSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string date = MakeMySqlDateTime();

int numberOfAnswers = 24; //Also the number of radiobuttonlists
string[] a = new string[numberOfAnswers]; //Variables to hold the
values until the insertion

//ALL THE RADIOBUTTONLISTS GOES HERE:
for (int i = 0; i <= numberOfAnswers; i++)
{
a = HERE I NEED TO ACCESS ALL THE RADIOBUTTONLISTS
}
a1 = rbl1.SelectedValue.ToString();

//-----END OF RADIOBUTTONLISTS----

Can someone please give me some hints and code to help me?

Thanks!

Try this (assuming the form is named as form1):

foreach (Control c in this.form1.Controls)
{
if (c is RadioButtonList)
{
Response.Write(((RadioButtonList)c).SelectedValue + "<br/>");
}
}

If you have nested RadioButtonList in any container controls then you will
have to run this loop recursively for each of those containers...

Ok, that worked, thanks, but now I have another small issue...If the user
selected the "Other" option, he's supposed to write text into a textbox
beside the radiobuttonlist. How can I identify whict textbox to retrieve
from, from within the loop?
Here is the code:

int controlCounter = 0;

foreach (Control c in this.survey.Controls)
{
if (c is RadioButtonList)
{
a[controlCounter] = ((RadioButtonList)c).SelectedValue;
if (a[controlCounter].ToString() == "Other:")
{
//How can i determine which textbox to grab the text
from, I have several radiobuttonlists that contains the "Other:" option..
}
controlCounter++;
}
}

Well, the simple way is to check the ID radio button list (in case of
"Other") and get the associated text box value by hardcoding the textbox ID.

But this is inside a loop, how can i hardcode the ID when I don't know whicth
radiobuttonlist the loop is at?

Is there another way of doing this?
