问题
I have an ASP.NET Webforms site that is regularly having features added. The majority of time a new WebControl is added to the page and I need to increment the TabIndex to all subsequent controls on the page.
I'd prefer a more robust solution than choosing an arbitrary gap between the initial assigned tab indexes. Setting the tab indexes using the designer tab order functionality is one option but I'd prefer to stay in the source view.
Ideally, if I had, for example, three check boxes I'd like to be able to define the tabindex based off the previous controls tabindex. Then I'd only need to insert the new control and change one existing control.
For example, add a new property TabIndexAfterControlId to WebControl:
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxA" runat="server" TabIndex="1"/>
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxB" runat="server" TabIndexAfterControlId="checkBoxA"/>
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxC" runat="server" TabIndexAfterControlId="checkBoxB"/>
My first thought was to extend System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl with a new property, but extension properties aren't supported.

Note: This approach worked for some webcontrols (DropDownLists) but not all of them (CheckBoxes). I've left it here for reference.
I've ended up with a solution that uses a code behind method to capture the relationship between controls.
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxA" runat="server" TabIndex="1"/>
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxB" runat="server" TabIndex='<%# TabIndexAfter(checkBoxB, checkBoxA) %>'/>
<asp:CheckBox ID="checkBoxC" runat="server" TabIndex='<%# TabIndexAfter(checkBoxC, checkBoxB) %>'/>
The code behind method will initially do a basic TabIndex assignment, which works well when the tab order follows the order of the controls on a page. Then during the PreRender event the tab index order will be checked again. This is important if the tab order doesn't not follow the natural flow of the page.
private LinkedList<WebControl> _webControlTabOrder;
/// <summary>
/// Assign the current WebControl TabIndex a value greater than the prior WebControl.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="currentWebControl">The current WebControl to set the TabIndex for</param>
/// <param name="priorWebControl">The prior WebControl to get the previous TabIndex from.</param>
/// <returns>The new TabIndex for the control</returns>
public int TabIndexAfter(WebControl currentWebControl, WebControl priorWebControl)
{
if (_webControlTabOrder == null)
{
_webControlTabOrder = new LinkedList<WebControl>();
this.PreRender += new EventHandler(UserControlBase_PreRender);
}
LinkedListNode<WebControl> priorNode = _webControlTabOrder.Find(currentWebControl);
if (priorNode == null)
{
priorNode = _webControlTabOrder.AddLast(priorWebControl);
}
_webControlTabOrder.AddAfter(priorNode, currentWebControl);
return priorWebControl.TabIndex + 1;
}
void UserControlBase_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
LinkedListNode<WebControl> currentNode = _webControlTabOrder.First;
while(currentNode.Next != null)
{
LinkedListNode<WebControl> nextNode = currentNode.Next;
if (nextNode.Value.TabIndex <= currentNode.Value.TabIndex)
{
nextNode.Value.TabIndex = (short)(currentNode.Value.TabIndex + 1);
}
currentNode = nextNode;
}
}
回答2:
My prior attempt using the data-binding syntax (<%# ... %>) to set the TabIndex for web controls failed when some controls wouldn't bind the TabIndex (CheckBox). It also wasn't ideal as I needed to pass a reference to the current control into the code behind method.
This time around I went with a custom ExpressionBuilder that accepts the name of the web control that the current control should follow in the tab order.
The TabIndexAfterExpressionBuilder initially returns the short -1 as the value. At the same time it registers with the LoadComplete event of the current Page. When this event fires both controls are found and the tab indexes set according to their relative positions.
Example WebControls using the TabIndex Expression Builder
<asp:TextBox ID="txtTextBox0" runat="server" TabIndex="1" /><br />
<asp:TextBox ID="txtTextBox1" runat="server" TabIndex="<%$ TabIndex:txtTextBox0 %>" /><br />
<asp:TextBox ID="txtTextBox2" runat="server" TabIndex="<%$ TabIndex:txtTextBox1 %>" />

{
public class TabIndexExpressionBuilder : ExpressionBuilder
{
public override System.CodeDom.CodeExpression GetCodeExpression(System.Web.UI.BoundPropertyEntry entry, object parsedData, ExpressionBuilderContext context)
{
string priorControlId = entry.Expression.Trim();
string currentControlId = entry.ControlID;
CodeExpression[] inputParams = new CodeExpression[] { new CodePrimitiveExpression(priorControlId),
new CodePrimitiveExpression(currentControlId),
new CodeTypeOfExpression(entry.DeclaringType),
new CodePrimitiveExpression(entry.PropertyInfo.Name) };
// Return a CodeMethodInvokeExpression that will invoke the GetRequestedValue method using the specified input parameters
return new CodeMethodInvokeExpression(new CodeTypeReferenceExpression(this.GetType()),
"GetRequestedValue",
inputParams);
}
public static object GetRequestedValue(string priorControlId, string currentControlId, Type targetType, string propertyName)
{
if (HttpContext.Current == null)
{
return null;

Page page = HttpContext.Current.Handler as Page;
if (page != null)
{
page.LoadComplete += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
WebControl currentWebControl = FindControlRecursive(page, currentControlId);
WebControl priorWebControl = FindControlRecursive(page, priorControlId);
if (currentWebControl != null && priorWebControl != null)
{
TabIndexAfter(page, currentWebControl, priorWebControl);
}

}
// Default TabIndex
short value = (short)-1;
return value;
