Hi,
I am using a javascript onclick function to get values of an input button. Then I am using webservices to input the value in table. This is working fine with IE7,IE6. But not working for Firefox. Part of the code is given below:

function SegmentUpdate(okButton)
{
// Get a refence to the containing cell, it's up a few levels in the DOM
var containingCell = okButton.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;

cancelButtonName = okButton.name.replace('OkButton', 'CancelButton');
cancelButton = document.getElementById(cancelButtonName);

// Get the necessary Id's (They are written on the table data element for this cell).
var segmentId = containingCell.sourceSegmentId; // Here the problem is. containingCell not accepting value in the variable segmentId.
var userId = containingCell.userId;
var languageCode = containingCell.languageCode;
var milestoneName = containingCell.milestoneName;
var contextualLevel = containingCell.contextualLevel;
var isArchived = containingCell.isArchived;

// Get a reference to the relative form elements (Their names are written on the table data element for this cell).
var txtTQMReasonClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.txtTQMReasonClientId);
var ddlTQMReasonClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.ddlTQMReasonClientId);
divTargetTextClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.divTargetTextClientId);
txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId);
txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId);
divPanel2ClientId = document.getElementById(containingCell.divPanel2ClientId);
panel1Id = containingCell.divPanel2ClientId;

// Get the values from the form elements to make the update
var reason = "";
if (txtTQMReasonClientId != null)
{
reason = txtTQMReasonClientId.value;
}
var reasonId = -1;
if (ddlTQMReasonClientId != null)
{
reasonId = ddlTQMReasonClientId.value;
}
var overrideText = "";

if (txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId != null)
{
overrideText = txtOverrideTranslatedTextClientId.value.trim();

}

ABCD.WebServices.Approval.OverRideTargetSegmentText(segmentId, userId, overrideText, reasonId, reason,
languageCode, milestoneName, contextualLevel, isArchived.toLowerCase(), OnUpdateTargetSegmentComplete);

}

Do you know at what point your script is falling over (does it error or does it simply not update the DB)? Are your variables being populated before the web service call is made?

Clean code is the key to happiness.

This is error and hence not updating DB.

No the variables are not populating. The error is with containingCell. This is not extracting related values.

okButton.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;

That's a hell of a lot of parentNode references. Far to many.

At what point does the script fail? What is the error message?

Yes you are right-a lot of parentNode references. But I have 11 variables to populate, this is why 11 times this is written. I have taken only 1 parentNode, but this has given me undefined for the variables. [I have used alert(variables).]
The script is ok for IE. But using Mozilla Firefox. This gives above error on the same point "undefined". Hence, not populating variables and the DB. Either "parentNode" not accepting or I miss the syntax. Please help me to solve this problem.

Well of course there is only one parentNode for each object. However, it looks like you 11 levels deep. At that point you should just go directly to the element you are trying to get to, document.getElementById();

How about debugging in a more professional manner, like using a debugger. Alert is not a diagnostic tool.

Using above, I gets null for the variable segmentId both in in IE7 and Mozilla Firefox. The version for FF is:(Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11). Please help me.

Roll Your Own Ajax in DataList Control

Brady Kelly30-Jan-08 4:16

We have an in-house, client side grid thingy, a fancied up HTML table built by a DataRepeater, and do our own ajax using the onblur events of the input controls in that table.

Now I'd like to replace that grid with a DataList, to get a detail view for editing more details provided in the grid view, but I would still like to retain my existing in-grid editing as is, without postbacks, or having to enter or exit edit mode. Is there any way to combine these two? Can I gloo on an onblur event to the controls rendered by the DataList and retain my current ajax channel?

Hi,

Firstly, I would suggest you rename your function as length is a DOM keyword. The below should work fine:

<script type="text/javascript"><br />
<!--<br />
function checkLength()<br />
{<br />
  var a = document.getElementById("TextBox1").value.length;<br />
<br />
  if (a > 10)<br />
    alert("Too many characters");<br />
}<br />
//--><br />
</script><br />

If you are using the Master Page then the id you are providing in the javascript function is wrong check the source code for the id
or you should provide be like this
document.getElementById(<%#TextBox1.ClientId%>).value.length;
as the id will be different

Thanks and Regards

1st of all i have a project size approximatly less then 50.0 MB.
Build in VS2003 in ASP.Net / C#.
I m bored with the 1.1 environment and speed to work with it.

So I would like to convert the whole application to Framework 2.0, so i can work out it in VS2005

So which and what things sholud i keep in mind while converting.
What are the steps and how to make a complete Conversion?
Is it safe to do so? Or is it possible(Succesfully? $Shucks | :-\$ )

Please show me the way...

Ya you can convert it into 2.0 but there are many changes that you need to make which also depends on your requirement
Like Partial class,Master page,
There are many things if you really wany to take benefit of 2.0 you will have to work out for these things first then start converting page by page

Thanks and Regards

I have an experience in project that change 1.1 to 2.0
Yes, you need to know what the impact from new feature in framework 2.0

But you also need to know which classes that is gone in framework 2.0 because some dudes at microsoft change its name. if you have classes that have the same name with these classes, well, you will have the filling want to shot everyone like i did during in the process of changing their names, but if you layering your project (UI layer, business layer, data layer), this will not (too) concern you as well as i did while i was in the project.

you also have to replace some control that no longer recommended in vs 2005, like datagrid (gridview in 2005), or some object, like arraylist (collection in 2005).

as i'm always joke with my friend in project, it's not hard to convert from 1.1 to 2.0, the bug fixing that makes it so *** damned hard...

but i encourage you to try, you will get a good experience and small bump in your head cause you'll be banging your head to monitor...

i hope you'll try to convert it...
happy bugs fixing friend

Obtaining client info when using no authentication

Hi
I need to know who is viewing an ASP.Net page without the user knowing it. I can get the client IP address and host name(sometimes) but would like to get the username of the person logged in or any other info that identifies the person.

I know that this is possible if I am using Windows authentication or forms based authentication but I am using no authentication with anonymous access.

Any ideas on how to get this info without asking the person to log in?

Thanks

Can I call a palette in VS.NET 2003

Hi fellas.

I am a newbie with ASP.NET, I need to write a site with C#,
I am thinking of allowing users to customize their site with CSS.

However I want the users to be able to choose the colors via a palette. Is there even such as feature in VS.NET 2003? I really don't want the users to manually type in the hex colors themselves.

Any helpful links and resources?

Many many thanks!!!

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I am just looking for something which allows the user to select the color they want.

I just want to pop up a little box, with many colors for the users to select. (Something like MSPaint)

Is there such a control in VS.net 2003? Thanks
