1- Exception Handling Block

You can user the Error handling application block provided by Microsoft.

Exception Block[^]

2- ELMAH

In some of my previous projects I have used ELMAH ELMAH[^]

ELMAH is very efficient in exception handling with simple configuration.

Yes, I think Enterprise Library Application Block is one of the bese solutaion.

Here is one of my article on Caching Application Block,
http://web1.codeproject.com/KB/web-cache/CachingApplicationBlock.aspx[^]

Which may not related with your question, but it will help you to understand about Application Block

Dear All,
I am looking to add SplitButton Control in my webpage but I dont know what its called in ASP.Net
you can see that in following link http://dadafghanistan.gov.af/rc?sessionid=1269861720874211[^]

you just need to login which doesnt requires username and password and you can add columns to build a report, as you add a column an split button is added which you can do other action on that too.

any ideas what control is that?

This is how im creating dynamic textboxes in repeater...
But how do i store viewstate of those textboxs on btnclick event...
so that values of text boxs may not dissappear on post back....

Where you are creating dynamic textboxes in this code?
Or you defined static html inside Repeater?

Arun Jacob
http://codepronet.blogspot.com/

yes ststic html defined..

<asp:Repeater ID="Rptdescription" OnItemCommand="Rptdescription_ItemCommand"   runat="server">

     </td> 
     </tr>
     <tr style="width:100%">

Okay.Then before creating new row and binding it to repeater, you need to save the edited data in text boxes to some persisting object.

Arun Jacob
http://codepronet.blogspot.com/

iam using asp.net with c#.and sql server

table fields are

customername nvarchar
monitors decimal
printers decimal
scanners decimal

some times customers will take only printers , so at that time the textboxes is empty so while saving and updating it is giving errors

Input string was not in a correct format

please give example which helps me.

Why don't you trap for that. if your table field does not allow nulls then you cant insert a null.what you can do is to trap for that and have the reserved word that you will use if the textbox is empty.

Hi,
What kind og error it is giving can you give details here..

Thanks ,
Amit Patel

You should set a default value of 0 (zero) for the monitors, scanners and printers fields such that when you go to pass the data to the database all of the items have a valid value (zero should be a valid count for items denoting that whilst they may have 1 scanner, they have no printers or monitors).

Which line of code is causing the error?Can u paste that line of code here?

Arun Jacob
http://codepronet.blogspot.com/

printer.computer,scanner lines are giving error

try this
in your table set default value of printer, scanner.. parameter is 0

or use in code
if(txt_printer=="")
{
printer =0;
}
else
{
printer =txt_printer.Text;
}

same for scanner . & .........

If you are going to do it like that, do it this way:

int printer = (string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtPrinter.Text) ? 0 : Convert.ToInt32(txtPrinter.Text);

Apply the appropriate conversion to txtPrinter.Text.

Dear All,
i have following code

function displayControlName(src,pText)
    {
        var msg2Display = document.getElementById('spMsg');
        msg2Display.innerHTML += '<input type = "button" value="'+src+'" onclick="return displayMsg(src,pText)"/><br>';
        return false;    
    }
    function displayMsg(src,pText) 
    {   
        alert(src + ' you are here');
        return false;
    }

I am looking to pass "src" and "pText" javascript variable to a function called "displayMsg", but I have tried different ways to pass the variables from first method "displayControlName" as i have tried
displayMsg(src,pText), displayMsg('+src+','+pText+') and a little more but none worked for me.

any ideas how to pass the variable name src and pText to the javascript function displayMsg from method displayControlName and I am trying to pass it in this statement onclick = "return displayMsg(src,pText)"?

Abdul Rahaman Hamidy

this will be the correct way

displayMsg(src,pText);

and i see you have done it but the question is that these parameters have you declared them anywhere ? show u the part you tried to execute and show us where you declare the parameters to pass to the function.

Vuyiswa Maseko,

http://www.vuyiswamaseko.com
vuyiswa@its.co.za
http://www.itsabacus.co.za/itsabacus/

those variables are as the function args and I am sending only text value to these args
as you see
the function requires two args

function displayControlName(src,pText)

and I am only printing that two variables passed to function.
here I am passing var to that function

menuLink.Attributes["onclick"] = "return displayControlName('" + item.Text + "','" + item.Parent.Text + "');";

both item.Text and item.Parent.Text are there but the

onclick="return displayMsg(src,pText);"

doesent work.

Look at Prakash , that is exactly what you need to do. your variables are not recognized, they are treated as string.

You are adding the input control in the spMsg control like following

msg2Display.innerHTML += '<input type = "button" value="'+src+'" onclick="return displayMsg(src,pText)"/><br>';

When the onclick event will be attached on the input button the “scr” will be unknown.

try this

 function displayControlName(src, pText) {
    var msg2Display = document.getElementById('spMsg');
    msg2Display.innerHTML += '<input type = "button" value="'
    + src + '" onclick="'
    + "return displayMsg('"
    + src + "','"
    + pText + "')"
    + '"/><br>';
    return false;
}

WWW, WCF, WWF, WPF, WFC .... WTF

thanks, your print the following but no event is attached with the button
ButtonpTextValue')"/>

Button mean the HTML control button and pTextValue mean the value which is in the pText Variable
it means it prints one button control with other text in the screen while no event is attached with the button control.

I tried to simulate this problem at my side and it worked for me, can you share some more information regarding this.
