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 :
Simple Chat Application in ASP.NET[^]

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.

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 />

<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!

Isn't this question be posted in database forum?
Please don't forget to mark 'Good Answer', if you find it really a good one!

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?
|
|
|
|
|
Try to followup step-
1- In database, create an extra column that will address send mail status
2- Create a windows and create there interval time like (30 Sec/15 Sec)
3- In this interval hit the database and check flag value of send mail status clumn, If it is flase then send email with required information
Note: You can many samples on codeproject itself or go with google.

Choosing the right method depends on how fast you need the email to be send after the update. If you need immediate email notification, as suggested Windows services will be the choice. If you can afford a short delay, efficient approach would be to create a console application and schedule it using windows scheduler.
Best wishes,

I suggest you do this via a trigger. Look into sp_send_dbmail and let the database handle the emails.

I created a application with Two layers
DAL and BLL ,and I registered them in GAC for global access by assigning strong keys for the dlls
I have created two versions like version 1 should return 10 as output and version 2 as 20
For my website I am adding the dlls from GAC so it will not place in bin it should directly assign to web.config as Microsoft dlls( System.Web.Extensions)
I am getting the outputs clearly for version 1 and version 2 as 10 and 20 as i expected. but Once I published the code with version 1 dll it is getting output as 10,
if I change to version 2 in web.config that time also it is showing the output as 10,y it is not showing as 20 even though I change to version 2(version 2 indirectly refers to version 2 dlls in gac as per before publish)

You can check window.opener.location property. That should have a URL of the page which opened your page.
It's not necessary to be so stupid, either, but people manage it. - Christian Graus, 2009 AD
