Hey,
I have a couple of link buttons and I am trying to get them to open a page in a new window. I know how to do this with a normal link, but I also have some very simple code behind that I need to run (Set a session variable).
I've tried to add attributes to the linkbutton by doing lnkBtnEnterprise.Attributes.Add("Target", "_blank");
but that doesnt seem to do anything. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks for your time.
protected void lnkBtnEnterprise_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lnkBtnEnterprise.Attributes.Add("Target", "_blank");
Session["Owner"] = 1;
Response.Redirect("~/SampleDashboardDetails.aspx");
}

I also tried putting lnkBtnEnterprise.Attributes.Add("Target", "_blank"); on the page load event.

First, this won't do anything for you. You are applying an attribute to the link then immediately redirecting to another page.
Second, attributes are case sensitive, target should be lowercase.

I have absolutely no clue, is this ASP.NET?
|
|
|
|

Yes, it is ASP.NET. I was trying to open the page using C# and w/o javascript. I've spent all day trying to figure it out to no avail.
When I do the lnkBtnEnterprise.Attributes.Add("target", "_blank"); and click the button on the page, I get an error of "Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object expected"

WE have an ASP.NET forum. Posting in the C# forum leaves people trying to figure out if you're writing a web app, which is often less obvious than it was in this case.

OK, but its a C#.Net question, is it not? Thats why I thought this forum was more appropriate.

The code might be in C# but the concepts are either Web Development or ASP.Net, either of which would, in my opinion, be better homes for your question.

OK, I'll post the question over there. Thanks anyway for your help.

I found a solution. I ended up changing the link buttons to links and passed a variable through the link, then grabbed the variable and stored it to the session variable I was using in a Page_PreInit function.
Send it from first page:
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkEnterprise" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/SampleDashboardDetails.aspx?Owner=1" Target="_blank">Enterprise Details</asp:HyperLink>
Receive on second page:
protected void Page_PreInit(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Session["Owner"] = Request.QueryString["Owner"];
}
Thanks for your help guys.

<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnValidRules" runat="server" Text="Validation Rules" OnClientClick="window.open('ValidationRules.aspx', 'ValidRules', 'width=1100,height=800,status=yes'); return false;">
</asp:LinkButton>
this is how I do

I am writing an XML web service in VS2008 using C#. SQL and VS are running on the same box. There are several SQL instances running because we are using the box to support our customers who are mixed 2005/2008 SQL server. From inside VS I can create a data connection to one of our SQL instances. The box is ESSERV and the instance is ES2008 so the connection string that is in the connection object is:
"Data Source=ESSERV\ES2008;Initial Catalog=ESData08;Integrated Security=True"
This works fine. I can see the ESData08 database, tables, SPs, etc. No problems. So in C# I use the following code:
String sqlConn = "Data Source=ESSERV/ES2008;Initial Catalog=ESData08;Integrated Security=True";
SqlConnection esConn = new SqlConnection(sqlConn);
esConn.Open();
YES, I flipped the backslash between ESSERV and ES2008 to a forward slash. MSDN said that was OK to do so it doesn't look like an escape sequence. And here is part of what I get:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection........... and about 2 dozen more lines of error.
So my question is WHY? I have tried every combination of ESSERV\ES2008 and all of them give me the same error. Named Pipes are enabled. So what is causing this error and is there a way to specify the data connection I have already defined and know works. I'm kind of new to VS and C# but I'm sure that the code is correct as it compiles and runs up to the open. Any help with this nightmare would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe B

In case you aren't aware of it there is an excellent site connectionstrings.com[^], that can be very useful in situations like this.
It offers connection strings for most scenarios.
This[^] thread talks about the same error you have, and the first answer says it has the solution. I haven't followed the link, as I don't use named pipes and therefore cannot tell if that is correct.
Anyway, good luck!

Henry,
Thanks for the response but NO. Not one of the connection strings worked. This is unbelievably frustrating. I am now 12 hours into beating my head against this issue. SOMEONE must know what is in the way. EVERY single think I tried returns this:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

MICROSOFT..... ARE YOU LISTENING??????? 12 hours for a connection string. I am NOT a db admin, nor a network admin. I write code and this is NOT GOOD. It can't be this hard to connect to a SQL Server that's on the same machine as the Web Service.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Define what you mean by "active"? Use English and not the TXTSpeak garbage.

If you're lucky, that's stored in the registry and you can look it up. Otherwise, I don't see how you're likely to work it out. But, you need to work out how it's stored by firefox, at this stage this is a 'how does firefox work' question, not a C# question.

Firefox stores all its user settings in the user's Application Data folder, so you'll need to hunt in there.
For any more info, you'll probably need to delve into the source tree
