Hi All,
How to maintain "session" state or the like for a show/hide menu when I click a sub link from an open block of sub category, like the one The Code Project did it on the left menu panel.
For example, if I click on "Web Development" link under "ARTICLES" category, it will show many links under the "Web Development" block. Click on a link in that open block, the page will refresh and show me article I wish to view. The problem I have is I can't figure out how to maintain session of the link I just clicked. That is keep the block "Web Development" open after the page refreshes.
Thank you.

What is the problem with that. Use hiddenfield to get it. 
Or rather you could get the group where the user clicked from its url as well...

Hi
I have en Asp file lcon.asp in my website project, where I use an Iframe. I want to be able to use the iframe in the code behind from another aspx page.
<iframe runat =server id="left" src="ShowGroups.aspx" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="1000"></iframe>
I would like to do something like this.
protected System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl frame1;
HtmlControl frame1 = (HtmlControl)this.FindControl("left");
frame1.Attributes["src"] = "http://search.msn.com";
But if there is another way to refresh the iframe, please tell me.

I don't want to use javascript.
|
|
|
|

AFAIK ... no wayout other than javascript. At least the page should be posted back to the aspx page to get the iframe.
You need to use custom handler to do this as your actual page is asp.
Why dont you convert the asp page to aspx then.

Thank's for your answer, but I can't convert or not allowed to convert tha asp page to aspx. What do you mean by post back to the aspx page. And what is custom handler.

I mean say you have a page called submitRequest.aspx
Now from your Asp page use:
<br />
<form action ="submitRequest.aspx" >
thus when the page is posted back it goes to submitRequest.aspx. You can get each of those form elements using Request object from submitRequest.aspx (even the IFrame) where page is your custom handler.
You can also use a class which inherits from IHttpHandler to call its process request.
On the other hand, how could you access the iframe from the server side, if your actual parent page is made using asp. You better use javascript to get reference from Iframe if you do require.
I hope you got my point.

Hi again
I'm grateful for your answers, but I'm rather new to asp.net. How should I write to get a hold of the iframe. The iframe have id="left" in the asp page. But when I try Request["left"], I get null. And how am I going to change the src of the iframe.
Hope you have time to help me more

I think you need to use Javascript to communicate between the two pages, one the page that is loaded in iFrame and another is what is written in asp.
If you can submit the asp page in a handler custom handler and access Request.Params to get the controls.
|
|
|
|
|
Hi again
Do you have any code so I can see what I have to do. I don't know how to submit a page and I don't know how to use a custom handler. I have googled, but havent found anything I can use.
Regards
Fia

I m new in web application also in asp dotnet application .... In my Test application , i would like to create a chat application... Give some tips and valid tutorial
Thanks

I have already made this using Silverlight. There are lots of examples as well.
In case of normal ASP.NET, I guess you need to use SetInterval and continuously ping to an address to get update and update the chat window accordingly.
Use this tutorial for help :

How do you ping to an address from JS?
This is not how web chat works. There should be a server and both clients will be connected to this server. The messages sent by both clients will be updated on the server and client just have to poll the server to get the message.
Best wishes,

By the sentence I meant to create one XmlHttp object and ping the server for the update. From the other end if some update is made to the server, it will get it .

So, this is what exactly I meant.

Hello fellow coders,
I am having a strange problem which I've never run in to previously.
The Problem:
I am getting back the new HTML in the AJAX postback, but the DOM / page isn't updating.
How it happens::
Whenever a user clicks the button 'Add Comment' the the following code is called:
<br />
button_click(...)<br />
{<br />
...<br />
IXmsComment cmt = new IXmsComment();<br />
cmt.content = content;<br />
cmt.date = DateTime.Now;<br />
cmt.username = tbxUsername.Text;<br />
AddComment(cmt);<br />
if (divComments.Visible == false)<br />
divComments.Visible = true;<br />
updateComments.Update();<br />
}<br />
<br />
... AddComment(IXmsComment cmt)<br />
{<br />
HtmlGenericControl divComment = new HtmlGenericControl("div");<br />
HtmlGenericControl divAuthor = new HtmlGenericControl("div");<br />
HtmlGenericControl divDate = new HtmlGenericControl("div");<br />
HtmlGenericControl divDescrip = new HtmlGenericControl("div");<br />
divComment.Attributes.Add("class", "comment");<br />
divAuthor.Attributes.Add("class", "commentAuthor");<br />
divDate.Attributes.Add("class", "commentDate");<br />
divDescrip.Attributes.Add("class", "commentDescription");<br />
divAuthor.InnerText = cmt.username;
divDate.InnerText = cmt.date.ToString();
divDescrip.InnerHtml = cmt.content;
divComment.Controls.Add(divAuthor);<br />
divComment.Controls.Add(divDate);<br />
divComment.Controls.Add(divDescrip);<br />
divComments.Controls.Add(divComment);<br />
xms.Utils.scriptCalls.AnimateStatus(divComment.ClientID, updateComments);<br />
UpdateProgress1.Visible = false;<br />
}<br />
Here is the update panel html:
<br />
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="updateComments" runat="server" UpdateMode="Conditional"><br />

<div id="divResult" class="status" runat="server" style="font-weight:bold;"></div><br />
</fieldset><br />
</div><br />
</ContentTemplate><br />
</asp:UpdatePanel><br />
In the response from the server, I can see the new comment div added but the actual HTML of the page isn't updated, even though I've explicitly called updateComments.Update();.
The strange thing is if I do not do any AJAX/partial page postbacks before adding a comment via the button click, it works fine but after any AJAX/partial page postback (like adding a second comment without refreshing the page) I will see the new comment in the AJAX Response, but the HTML on the page isn't changed. Does anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks,
Shawn

Probably not the case but I see that your UpdatePanel is set to ConditionalUpdate referring to btnSubmit's onclick event. OnClick is set to "btnSubmit_Click" however your update logic is within "button_click"!
Also, if above is not true, what exactly is Save() function doing which is being called onClientClick?

Hi Student
Thank you for the fast reply, alas I just 'shortcuted' the text to make it more readable, yes the button_Click method is actually btnSubmit_Click. I was just trying to follow the guidelines and make the code as small as possible.
The update panel is set to conditional, and at the very end of the event handler you will notice I called updateComments.Update();.
I am using tinyMCE inside the update panel (<uc1:xmsRichEditor ID="xmsRichEditor1" runat="server" UseFullEditor="false" />) and in order to reset the textbox with the value inside tinyMCE I need to do the following before posting back to the server:
<br />
document.getElementById("aspnetForm").elements["<%= xmsRichEditor1.UniqueID %>"].value = tinyMCE.get('<%= xmsRichEditor1.ClientID %>').getContent();
If you want to see this page in its live environment you can see it here: http://blabberjax.com/singlePage.aspx?id=3[^]
The thing is that If I add one comment, the AJAX postback works, and the new comment is added in a new div inside of divComments (divComments.Controls.Add(divComment);). But after posting one comment, if I try to post another one the Response I receive from the server (using firebug to inspect it) has the new divComment in the response html, but the html is never actually injected into the DOM.
To make sure that there was not some unhandled exception, I debugged the code. It works identically both times, and the Response from the server is identical each time (except the second time it includes a new div with the second comment) though the html in the update is not refreshed on the second postback.

Yeah I didn't think that was the case but I just wanted to make sure. Sometimes small things like that can cause major issues 
Also, I looked at your website ... nice design. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get much in terms of, behavior or test data, from the comment page as I wasn't able to add a comment at all. It seemed like it worked at first but then I kept getting a 404 error.
I have never worked with tinMCE .... but if time allows I'll try to download tinyMCE and see if I can get it to work in a relatively simpler example similar to yours. Sorry wish I could be of more help.
Good luck.

Yup thats exactly the problem I'm having. The first time I submit a comment, it will add it to the page, after that, each sequential postback will send the correct response, but the html inside the update panel doesn't update...

Hi. I have a datagrid templatecolumn itemtemplate that I wish to set the rows according to the output row count from sql db. Rows count.
I have this on the html side which is generic.
-----------------------------------------------------------
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Comment2">
<HeaderStyle Width="300pt"></HeaderStyle>
<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" ForeColor="#CC0000" VerticalAlign="Top"></ItemStyle>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox id=Textbox1 runat="server" Width="450px" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Comment") %>' BackColor="Transparent" BorderStyle="None" TextMode="MultiLine">
</asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is from the "with datagrid1" at page load
With DataGrid1
Dim cc as Integer
cc = DsgccV11.GCComents.Rows.Count()' Row count from sql
.AllowPaging = True
.PagerStyle.Mode = PagerMode.NextPrev
.PageSize = 25
.Items(1).Cells(3).Height.Point(cc)
.Items(1).Cells(3).Wrap = True
End With
I gather the row count as shown in line (cc = DsgccV11.GCComents.Rows.Count()) This works fine. What I need to do is use the output cc number to set the "rows" for the (asp:TextBox id=Textbox1) property within the (TemplateColumn.ItemTemplate)
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rick

Hi all,
I am using ASP.NET & SQL Server 2005. Whenever there are changes in database, I need to send an email automatically to administrator.
I am very please if you can tell me how I can "send an email automatically to administrator" when programming with C#?
Thank you very much!

You can implement it two ways-
- SQL Server2005 itself provide notification service (Do some research)
OR
- Write a windows service priodically ping to database and send email

I haven't understood so much about notification service. However, to notify the change of database I have used Service Broker of SQL Server 2005 & SqlDependency of C#.
Could you tell me more detail about "a windows service priodically ping to database and send email"? Which library of C# I should include? And could I use web service alternatly?
