Using tables to create layouts was a revolution for designing web pages. Suddenly there was a possibility to actually design pages, not just put some text on a page.
Of course using tables for layout was a terrible hack that used the tables for something that they were not at all intended for. This meant that you had to use a lot of code just to make the tables stop behaving as they should and instead behave the way that you wanted. It was still the best way of doing it, but mostly because there were no other way of doing it at all.
That was more than ten years ago.
Now there are alternatives. Using tables for layout is no longer the only way, but for some strange reason there are still people who think that it's the best way.

Are all these users on the same email service?
Try sending email to someone on a different email service. You can set up test accounts on yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc. and see if it is a problem with all email services or just one of them.
It could be that the email service recognizes the yahoo email server as an originator of junk mail and filters all mail coming from email accounts there to the bulk folder.
If that is the case than you have been filtered because of what other users of yahoo are doing.
If so you should think of getting another hosting service that is not popular as a source of spam email.

Can someone show me how to read out the contents of a (Belgian) e-Id Card by a web page ?
I would like to create a website where accounts can be created by entering a e-Id card and pressing 'New account'. The system would automatically fill in the web-form.
Thx in advance.

Can someone let me know what is going on with this statement? I'm new to javascript. I don't understand what's between the quotes.
document.getElementById("<%=imagetag.ClientID %>")
what does <%= mean?
Thanks!

Not 100% sure but I have seen this used two ways. One is to do data binding, the other is to find control programmatically. See if that points you in the right direction.

The <%=...%> tag is a server tag to output a value. It's almost equivalent to <script runat="server">Response.Write(...)</script>.
The ClientID property of a server control contains the id that the control uses for the html element that it renders. When server controls are inside a container (like a user control) the id is prepended with the id of the container to keep it unique in the form. You use the ClientID property to get this generated id.

that means you are trying to access the server variable on client side.. hope so it will clear the problem

Hi,
I have a web part page with a toolbar webpart and a grid webpart. In the toolbar, I have menu-items to update a field.
For selecting the value of the field I have another asp.net webform which shows the various options in a dropdownlist.
This form has to be a modal form and has to be shown on click the Toolbar menu items. When the user selects an option from the drop-down list and click OK then the option selected has to be
returned to the web-part page from where the webform was shown.
I'm able to do this when I have a Webform and not a sharepoint webpart page as the parent page. When I use a sharepoint web-part page, this doesn't work.
Code Snippet:
grid webpart(in a webpart page):
• Code-behind
void webpart_SetToolbarMenuItemProperties(object sender, SetMenuItemPropertiesEventArgs e)
{
switch (e.MenuItem.MenuItemAOTName.ToLower())
{
case "smmmileadchangestatuspostpone":
e.MenuItem.ClientOnClickScript = "UpdateStatusWindow()" ;
break;
}
}
• Html source
function UpdateStatusWindow()
{
var returnVal = window.showModalDialog('http://localhost/_layouts/ep/smmLeadReasonId.aspx','','dialogWidth:200px;dialogHeight:120px;status:no');
alert (returnVal);
Aasp.net form shown as modal form
• Html source
function Close()
{
window.returnValue = getSelectedReason();
window.close();
}
function getSelectedReason()
{
return form1.ddlUpdateStatus.value;
}
If anyone has some idea why this is not working, please provide your inputs.
Thanks,
Manpreet

Hello,
I have a 'select' element in the footer of my masterpage. I'm trying to write javascript to assign a handler to the 'onchange' event of the 'select' control. The javascript is as follows:
var selectDisplay = document.getElementById('selectDisplay');<br />
selectDisplay.onchange = function()<br />
{<br />
alert("You did it!");<br />
}
The id of the 'select' element is 'selectDisplay'.
I have found references to issues regarding using getElementById when the element you want is in the masterpage, but have been unable to find a solution.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Ian

Try setting it up something like this:
<title>Untitled
function OptionSelect(){
var sel = document.getElementById("selectDisplay");
for(i = 0; i < sel.length; i++){
if(sel[i].selected){
i ? alert('Option ' + sel.value + ' selected') : alert('Select an Option');
break;
} // if(sel[i].selected)
} // for(i = 0; i < sel.length; i++)
} // OptionSelect()
onchange="OptionSelect();">
Select an Option
Option 1
Option 2
Option 3
Option 4

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the problem is getElementById does not return an element. I pass it the id of the element I'm looking for (there is no mispelling... I copy/pasted the id) but it is not returned.

That is very strange.
As an exercise I just swiped the code in my rely from the <html> to the </html> and put it into a new document in notepad.
I saved the document as test.htm and then clicked on the saved document. A browser window came up and the control worked as intended. I didn't add or take anything away but just used the code posted.
Try it and see if you get the same results. 
There is no problem with getElementById. I use it all the time on my web pages.

I got it working. I was confused with the difference between client-side and server-side controls. Thanks!

That doesn't help, as you are copying the id that is used for the server control. The getElementById method is using the id of the html element that the control renders, and if you examine the rendered html code (view source in the browser) you will see that they are not the same.

When a control is in a container (like a content control of a master page), the id is prepended with the id of the container.
Use the ClientID property of the control to get the id that you can use in client script, or view the source of the generated page to find out the generated id.

When control is in master page then the client side rendering of the webpage automatically genrate Id's for the server side control you need to traverse all the elements in the content regardless of using "document.getElementById('selectDisplay');" coz it will definetly not work

Hi Guys,
Is there a way wherein I can place the "text" of Linkbutton in center position?
Because what happened was, when I removed the underline the text is automatically adjusted to top position.
What I want is a LinkButton with transaparent background color, no borders and the text should be in center position (valign = center).
Could this be possible?
Thanks in advance Guys.

if you put any tags in your server control that are not recognised by the framework, they get passed through to the client. so, you can add a style tag, or any other tag you like that pertains to the control that gets rendered.
