I have the following in .aspx page:

<img src="btn_print.gif" OnClick="javascript:OpenSummaryPage();"/>
<input id="hdShowComment" type=hidden value="0" />

The OpenSuin .js file
function OpenSummaryPage()
{
with(aspnetForm)
{
var url ="summary.aspx?comment=" + hdShowComment.value;
window.open(url);
}
}

The function in ascx.cs page is actually like this:
public string ReturnVisibility()
{
string divCssClass= "CssShowDiv";
if (Page.Request.Url.ToString().IndexOf("page1.aspx") > 0)
{
divCssClass= "CssHideDiv";
}
return divCssClass;
}

In .css file:
.CssShowDiv{DISPLAY: true}
.CssHideDiv{DISPLAY: none}

Thanks for help!

The javascript: protocol is only used if you put the Javascript in an url. If you use it anywhere else, it isn't recognised as a protocol but it becomes a label instead.

As you are using xhtml, argument names have to be lower case.

<img src="btn_print.gif" onclick="OpenSummaryPage();"/>

Use the getElementById to access elements in the page.

var url = "summary.aspx?comment=" + document.getElementById('hdShowComment').value;

vicky457 wrote:
.CssShowDiv{DISPLAY: true}

"true" is not a valid value for the display style. Use the value "block" to display a block element (e.g. a div) and the value "inline" to display an inline element (e.g. a span).

Have you verified that the css really is used on the page? You can for example add a background color or a border to some element on the page to see if it's used.

Css files are cached longer than pages, so an older version of the css file might be used. Press ctrl+F5 to reload the page and all files it uses.

Experience is the sum of all the mistakes you have done.

I just found out the problem is caused by a stupid mistake. There is duplicated CssClass is defined, one is in Master page and is called CssHideDiv, the other is in .css file and is called CssHiddenDiv. The open widnow is not using master page, but is using CssHideDiv. This is a mistake introduced by multiple developers defining the same css class.

Thanks for everybody's help! I appreciate it!

SOAP message handler

Hello,
I want to create a SOAP message Handler for securing my web services. The .NET plateform offer this possibility with the SOAP extension.

But can this method be used with other plateform web services (java...) and how do it work?
In other words, can we create a SOAP message handler for all web services?

Thank you.

This is a fairly common example used for AJAX books, I know AJAX in Action walks through how to do it.

If you're using ASP.NET, the ASP.NET AJAX library probably has this control in it.

Quoting from MSDN, this commandline switch is for the purpose of

Do you have custom addins or third party software that is interfering? You also need to check whether they are interfering?

web services question

jesarg12-Nov-07 9:47

(I'm having to do some crazy stuff with web services, so bear with me.)

Does anyone know if it's safe to assume that there exists one and exactly one WSDL file for each web service that I could possibly want to consume?

And, if so, is there some sort of reference on w3.org (or some other standards organization) that proves it?

Re: web services question

Laubi12-Nov-07 22:20

no not really. what you describe is what you'll usually find but it is actually possible to have more than one service within one wsdl file!

Re: web services question

jesarg13-Nov-07 5:40

jesarg

13-Nov-07 5:40

Yeah, I was afraid of that. Based on the spec at http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl#_Toc492291092, it seems like I can't safely make that assumption.

Have you ever had to deal with the case of some web service provider putting more than one service into the same WSDL file? There's a lot that a provider can do (while still following the specs) to make the consumer's job a nightmare, but so far, I haven't had to deal with it yet.

Re: web services question

Laubi13-Nov-07 21:13

Laubi

13-Nov-07 21:13

Well yeah I had to deal with that several times but never had a problem with that.. Look at that simple code written in vbscript

Dim SoapClient<br />
Set SoapClient = CreateObject("MSSOAP.SoapClient") <br />
<br />
Call SoapClient.mssoapinit("http://127.0.0.1/bla?wsdl", "WebService", "SimpleWebServiceSoapPort")

there you can see that even when you use MSSOAP you're able to pass the name of the service, so no big deal unless you're using a client library that doesn't support passing the name of the service... I have worked with a lot of different soap clients and never seen one that doesn't allow me to pass the servicename...

Where exactly do you see the problem?

I'm working on a .NET front end to an ancient legacy back end, and I'm having to automatically generate legacy data structures based on the WSDL file.

It's kind of like me having to write a utility like Microsoft's WSDL.exe for an archaic system with no support for 64-bit numbers and very limited support for any sort of floating point numbers so that semi-technical business analyst users of the system can easily consume web services without using .NET (or any other modern, convenient tool) in a way that looks and feels easier than right-clicking on "references" and clicking "Add web reference".

There's a large list of things that are likely to go wrong, and I'm working on a solution that will get things done and make everyone involved happy.

DNS Cache !

I have a simple question just to clear my concept:

When we issue a request to say http://www.example.com/ by using an HttpWebRequest object and then again send another request to the same site but different page http://www.example.com/page.html then does windows xp maintained a DNS cache for these requests means whether windows again resolve the domain name into an IP or just use its DNS Cache to get the job done or this is just for Windows and no support in .NET?

Thanks in Advance !

Windows has a cache for DNS lookups, browsers generally have their own internal caches as well, and of course there are ~~turtles~~ caches all the way down - the whole DNS system is essentially built on the idea of distributed caching.
