Horizontal Menu bar display using xml file - ASP.NET Discussion Boards

There are many resources downloadable from the internet however as far as printed books are concerned consider these (and many otyhers):

1. HTML & XHTML: The Definitive Guide, 4th edition published by O'Reilly. ISBN: 0-596-00026-X

2. VB.NET Fundamentals By: Paul D. Sheriff & Ken Getz This is a downloadable PDF E-book available from http://www.pdsa.com[^] This book includes ASP.net

Anyhow, you can always download the free Express Edition Microsoft Visual Web Developer, register the product, and download the PDF tutorial "Build a Website"

Hi Richard, I'm sorry I should have been more clear, I have a pretty good grasp of html and a full MSDN subscription with all the tools I need. I'm not exactly starting out from complete scratch, I'm just a little out of date on the xhtml stuff but learning rapidly.

What I'm lacking in is a good guide to doing layouting reliably on different browsers I guess is what it comes down to. I've found some info on "Jello mold" layouts that looks promising:

Cheers!

My apologies for misunderstanding you.

Well, the era of laying out with tables is almost gone. Google for tutorials on CSS, and DIV layouts.

Hello Friends
I hope all of you will be doing fine there,
i am working on a project where i need to use google earth features.
can any body tell me how can i integrate it in my website.
i am using ASP.net 2.0
do send me link to any project
take care
bye

Ahsan Ullah

i think the only info you can get is Google Earth KML which works with google earth client use XML as feed.

Nav.

GOOGLE it. First try linking GEARTH COM object.

IF you just want to display map data, then using GE is probably not the best way to do it - you'd need to spawn the objects, it would need to be installed on the client etc..etc...

Try using Google MAPS instead...

Hi folks. This is selvaraj.I have a Datagrid ItemTemplate with DropDownList and also have an another ItemTemplates called HtmlInputText control.Initially the HtmlInputText control is disabled=true in all DataGrid rows.My requirement is when I going to be choosed the DropDownList value 5,that time only i need to disabled=false the HtmlInputText control. If any know about my issues please give some idea or code to me..

Thanks in advance
Selvaraj S.Kaliyappan.

have you tried the javascript for this. You can call javascript function on change of the dropdowlist and there in that function you can check for the dropdownlist value and do the oprations.

Hi,
Have an application that can be accessed through a portal. Now the application is to be customised for certain keywords that would be sent encased in the URL directed to this application.
Am confused as how to read this URL and extract the keyword in the application.
Any help?!

Hi,
Request.QueryString[keyword] will help you to reading the keywords.

Is this client side or server code?

server side code.

Alrite I still am confused!
i need to customize my application to parse the URL for a specific keyword.

The portal would redirect the user to my application, now how would I use the Request.QueryString property here!?
