I have a series of functions for manipulating strings, doing route distance calculations......
In ASP I wuold have placed them in an include file, linked the file and that was it.

Can anyone help me do the same in ASP.net? Where do I store them and how do I attach them so I can call them, idealy as a strongly typed item?

Many thanks
John

Why not put all of your methods in a class library. If all they do is take in a string, change it, and spit it back out you can make the methods static and you don't have to instantiate any classes to use them.

Don't blame me. I voted for Chuck Norris.

Yes, You can put the in a class Library and add the dll as reference in your project, or you can use as StringUtility Class in App_Code Folder.

if this is the utility function than you convert it in extension methods

Looks like a dll is the answer.
Will have to look at how to manually make them (batch file...) as do not have full Visual Studio, just web express.

Hi,
I have a compare validator which compares the email and confirm email text boxes on my page.
Is there anyway that I could trim the spaces at the start and end of these email address and then get them compared by the control?
As is expected, It gives error if there is space at the end of either text boxes.

Thanks

on thing you can do is use onblur event and create one javascript function which remove white space from the text box

hope this will help you

Adding to Pranay Rana's solution, trim the spaces in a javascript function on blur and then trigger the validation using the Page_ClientValidate() method to ensure that the compare validation is done after the trim.

HTH!

Styling the Ajax ComboBox

Hi,

I want to change the UI look of a ComboBox, so when I hover over a list item
I want to change the backgroundcolor of the hovered item. Therefore I use the
ListItemHoverCssClass property of the ComboBox as follows :

<asp:ComboBox ID="Combo1" runat="server" Width="80px" AutoPostBack="True"
   ListItemHoverCssClass="ComboListItemHover">
   <asp:ListItem Text="Item1" Selected="True" />
   <asp:ListItem Text="Item2" />
   <asp:ListItem Text="Item3" />
   <asp:ListItem Text="Item4" />
</asp:ComboBox>

In my CSS file, I do :

<br />
.ComboListItemHover<br />
{<br />
   background-color: #F2D429;<br />
}<br />

Why doesn't that work ?

It is good to check the basic things like whether CSS file has been "linked" and the link is given appropitely(path is proper or not). Poke tongue | ;-P

.... !!! Couple of time I do forget to link the CSS Wink | ;)

Thanks,

I have a repeater bounded from a list of classes. I want to check if one the class' properties is equal to "str" for any repeater's items, but I get an error when trying to do it.
I try to do it like this:
<asp:Repeater ID="rpt" runat="server" DataSource="<%#airplanes %>">
<ItemTemplate>
<% if (Eval("Tail") == "str")
{ %>
<asp:LinkButton ID="lnb" runat="server" Text="click here!" />
<% }
else
{ %>
<asp:Label ID="lbl" runat="server" Text="expired..." />
<% } %>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>

Inline logic is not the way to do that kind of thing. If you want your repeater to act differently based on the data is it binding to you need to use OnItemDataBound[^]

use

The Eval result is an object, not a string! Smile | :)

when u read line by line from editor, u should compare the words...if it matches any pattern then color them accordingly...if the pattern matches a comment until the end of line u need to mark it as green...

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
