Hi all,
I have a custom 404 error page for my site, it is an aspx page as it uses the master template to retain site navigation etc.
I have configured the web.config file, and so all un-found pages redirect to my 404 page just fine, but for directories not found it doesn't work, which I get just fine.
What I have done then is to change the error page that IIS serves up, telling it to point to my 404 page relative to the site root.
This too works fine, but only for urls such as : www.mysite.co.uk/afakedir
but for: www.mysite.co.uk/afakedir/ it screws up my links to js files and stylesheets etc. obviously because these are set to be relative to the path, which is changed when a trailing / is added.
How do I get round this without putting in absolute links to my js and css files etc?
They need to be relative as I don't want to be making changes between my development and live site and obviously the paths would be different.
I'm sure i'm not the only person to have this problem, or have tried this, I just can't seem to find a solution that works all round.
Any help would be appreciated, even just pointing me in the right direction 
--- What I forgot to mention is that I initially need this to work on iis6, but will need it to work on iis 7.5 also..
Many thanks..

Make all of your links relative to the root. Instead of things like ../styles/style.css use /styles/style.css.

Hi ya,
I have made them relative, but when the trailing / is on the end it thinks it's in a directory above where it is, and so the links fail.
I even tried making the links server-side so that I can use href="~/Styles/StyleSheet.css" but the website thinks it is at root level, because that's where the 404 page is. When I view the source code for the page, the links appear as www.mysite.co.uk/afakedir/Styles/stylesheet.css
it turns out it's not just the css and js files, but all other links have the fake directory appended to the beginning of it.
(I hope that made sense...)
It's left me very confused, I thought it was going to be very simple.
Thanks for the advice

Hi,
z-index does not work in IE6. How can i fix it.
Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
Upgrade to IE8?
IE6 has very poor support for z index and several other CCS tricks.

Thanks for your reply. I have to fix it for my project.
|
|
|
|
|
with respect to absolute positioning it has always worked well for me. i think so... it has been a long time... use jquery and its .css options to fix it.

It is better to have zindexes less than 100 so it works well in all browsers.
try to change all zindexes above 100 to below 100 and try.

OK here it goes don't laugh to hard. The project I'm assigned to is still utilizing VS2003. I recently recieve the code stream to the project. The solution will compile without error. All my refereneces are good (no broken ones). The problem is with the designer. If I choose to open a ASPX in the design I get this error "make sure all of the classes used in the page are built or referenced in the project". I will always get the error, however the page will not always open. It will open the code behind instead. Through troubleshooting I have discovered the base class the code is referencing seems to be the issue. If I remove the base class they specified and use System.Web.UI.Page I can open the ASPX page without error. Now I can cursor over the orginial base class (MyBaseClass.web.ui.page) and drill all way down to the referring binary in the object browser. So it does know that it exists.
I'm really stumped here. I'm almost certain this is a VS2003 issue. I have done alot research so far and I've read other people having this issue way back in 2005 time frame but no solution were mention.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello all,
I have a site in asp.net+vb.net and sqlserver.It runs very slow,mainly home page takes 3-4 minutes to load.What can be procedure to speed the site.
Thanks

That's like asking "I have a car that doesn't run what is the procedure to make it go?"
The answer could be as simple as put some gas in it, or it could be as complex as you need to replace the engine, and there are thousands of things in between.
What have you done so far to identify which parts are slow? Does it run as slow on the local server as it does accessing it remotely?

Hi,
On local machine it runs very well fast and smooth ,when i upload it on production machine then it runs very slow.
Thanks

3-4 minutes
start by loading the page with out a db connection , then you can see if its db or server related

I have a form within an HTML page.
As you can see from the code, it is hardcoded to post to an address 'sales@anycompany.co.uk'.
I also have a drop down box selecting the type of contact, Sales, Contractor etc.
I would like to email to a different address dependant upon which contact type is selected.
ie a sales type is emailed to sales@anycompany.co.uk, a contractor type is emailed to colin@anycompany.co.uk etc
How can I achieve this selection within HTML?
(Can I do this?)
<form action="mailto:sales@anycompany.co.uk&cc=david@anycompany.co.uk"
enctype="text/plain" method="post">
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
<input name="Customer Name :" size="60"
style="background-color: #FFFFCC; text-align: left;" type="text" value="Name" /><input
name="Telephone Number :" size="60"
style="background-color: #FFFFCC; text-align: left; width: 202px; margin-left: 42px;"
type="text" value="Tel No." /></p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; height: 12px; width: 655px;">
</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
Please use our contact form to make any enquiries.</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
Type of enquiry?</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
<select id="SelectContactType" name="ContactType">
<option value="Sales">Sales Enquiry</option>
<option value="Contractor">Contractor Enquiry</option>
<option value="Technical">Technical Enquiry</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select></p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
Your Question...</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; height: 62px;">

</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; height: 9px;">
</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">
Finally, Your Email Address...</p>
<p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px">

Never tried it (never had reason to) but you may be able to handle the changed event of the dropdown and set the form's action with JavaScript

Thanks, I was unsure if it was even possible in HTML.
I shall have a poke at that.

As Mark has said ...
"handle the changed event of the dropdown and set the form's action with JavaScript"
One way to accomplish that follows.
add onchange handler to drop down
<select id="SelectContactType" name="ContactType" onchange="setAction(this)">
add this script ...
<script type="text/javascript">
setAction = function(context){
frm = document.forms[0];
frm.action = "mailto:" +
context.options(context.selectedIndex).value) +
"@anycompany.co.uk&cc=david@anycompany.co.uk"}
</script>

Even better, Cheers.
Sorry for delay, I was watching the footy.
Trying it out now.

Just to get this straight, so that I fully understand the process...
I put the jscript into the header.
This calls the 'value' expression in the drop down menu, adds it to the 'mailto' and then adds the rest of the address and sends.
I need to change only the 'value' in the drop down to the correct email recipient, and the 'anycompany' to my own.
If that is correct, I have done it, and hopefully it will be fine.
Cannot check until I get to work tomorrow!
Thanks once more for your time on this.

David, you might want to run a script that checks if customer has entered anything otherwise this is what will be sent out if somebody just hits the submit button thoughtlessly.
Customer Name :=Name
Telephone Number :=Tel No.
ContactType=sales
S1=
Customer Email Address :=

In the HEAD...
<script type='text/javascript'>
function notEmpty(elem, helperMsg)
{
if(elem.value.length == 0)
{
alert(helperMsg);
elem.focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
In the Form...
<input type='text' id='S1'/>
<input type='button'
onclick="notEmpty(document.getElementById('S1'), 'Please Enter a Value')"
value='Check Field' />
Would this work?

I would be inclined to ask
(1) Have you designed, or wanting to eventually design, the pages of your website for dynamic content (all or at least most pages)
(2) Is it to be served, eventually, by dynamic created web pages on the server
(3) Are you, or are there plans to, capturing and validating data into a database
If yes to any of them, and more questions you might ask, then your small script, irrespective if it works or not, will not do. Apologies if this sounds rude, that was not the intention.
For client-side dynamics and validation, have a look at jQuery and some jQuery plug-ins. They really are rather excellent. But don't rely upon client-side validation. Do that validation etc on the server as well.

1) Maybe, but very little planned
2) Pass
3) Possibly, but I have no requirements yet.
To be honest, I am not overly good at this yet, and am still learning.
I understand that you weren't being rude, and I am always pleased to get advice and help.
So thanks anyway, and I am sure that when new things come along I will ask recieve help when I have to grumpily announce that I have no idea what I am doing!
(One of the main reasons for CP after all!)

No, it's sent when the submit button is clicked.
(but only if client has email installed and OK's the sending)
>>I need to change only the 'value' in the drop down
>>to the correct email recipient, and the 'anycompany' to my own.
Sounds right to me.
Good Luck.

Cheers.
I did mean 'OK's to send', I realise it would only send on the onclick.
