No that's not the best link. It's not AJAX, it is talking about AJAX toolkit developed by Microsoft for ASP.NET applications. AJAX is just javascript and this[^] is a good beginer level tutorial which talks about AJAX.

Don't know why people are thinking AJAX is developed by Microsoft Confused | :confused:

Hi Rameez

You can do it by installing a Asp.net Ajax toolkit which is available from microsoft website which is free to download and install if you are using asp.net 2.0 or visual studio 2005 after installing this small utility you will see a new option comes when you select a new web site from a file menu and there you can select AJAX ENABLED WEBSITE.

you will also see some new tools in your toolbox like update panel and script manager just using this two things you can build your website ajax enabled

Happy Coding Smile | :)

you can also use Javascript XMLHttpRequest Object to access AJAX directly...

use W3School's AJAX Tutorial for your start...

http://www.w3schools.com/Ajax/Default.Asp[^]

Its good way to understand what AJAX exactly is... .and how can one use AJAX to avoid unnecessary postbacks...

update database from a querystring data

hi guys! briefly, i have an application which use an api for its interaction with another plattform.at this point a need to update my database with data from a call from that api which uses querystring to pass data.Simple and fairky straight foward but couldn't suceeded.and the funniest is it doesn't throw any error. tried for 3 days now to find out where the problem is without any changes.i'm sure it just a little thing but can't see it.i would like to ask for help on this. here is my codes

the page call.aspx that the api use as callback to pass the data is.

<br />
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
    {<br />
        gid = Request["Id"];<br />
        numbstatus = Request["status"];<br />
    if(apimsgid != null && numbstatus != null)<br />
    {<br />
        //misc.logerr("callback data :" + gid + " : " + numbstatus);<br />
        //this line up was to check if the function receives the parameters<br />
        gid = gid.Trim();<br />
        numbstatus= numbstatus.Trim();<br />
        if (gid != "" && numbstatus != "")<br />
        {<br />
            DatabaseLayer  dlayerobj = new DatabaseLayer();<br />
           <br />
            Response.Write(dlayerobj.UpdateStatusByApiId(gid, numbstatus));<br />
        }<br />
    }<br />
        <br />
    }<br />
}<br />
<br />

now the function in the database layer is :

public string UpdateStatusByApiId(string theapiid, string thestatusnum)<br />
    {<br />
        string status = convertStatus(thestatusnum);<br />
        //the convertStatus method gives a normal name as ok, or no for diferenttype of numbers from the api.no problem here<br />
        try<br />
        {<br />
            SqlCommand updatecmd = new SqlCommand();<br />
            updatecmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;            <br />
            updatecmd.Connection = con;<br />
            //the connection con is created in the constructor.<br />
            updatecmd.CommandText = "update TState set DStatus =@stat where Gid=@apid";           <br />
            updatecmd.Parameters.Add("@stat", SqlDbType.VarChar, 20).Value = status;<br />
            updatecmd.Parameters.Add("@apid", SqlDbType.VarChar, 128).Value = theapiid;<br />
            updatecmd.ExecuteNonQuery();<br />
            return theapiid + " : " + status;<br />
            this also to see if the fucntion receives its param well and it receives it<br />
        }<br />
        catch (Exception ex)<br />
        {<br />
            misc.logerr(ex.ToString());<br />
            return ex.ToString();<br />
        }<br />
<br />
<br />
    }<br />

please let me know cause i'm stacked here and can't move forward without this..
ps:can anyone tell me the best practice testing in debugging.i mean by that either using an hyperlink or from address bar

Hi,

First set a break point where you read the data from the QueryString and see whether it retuns the parsed data. (Note: Just check if the Querystring key you use ie: "Id" and "status" has the same spelling as from where you are parsing from.)

Also another hint is just parse these values manually to the Query and see whether its working..

And when adding the values to the parameter you could simply use
updatecmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@apid, theapiid); Just some additional infor...

And assigned the value you retrive from ExecuteNonQuery to int variable and check if its greater than 0 before going for the next line...

And others seems to be fine...

Hope it helps..
Thx,
Gayani

Shared code behind class

Brady Kelly30-Aug-08 5:28

30-Aug-08 5:28

I've decompiled a pre-compiled ASP.NET web site, and on the whole it is looking good, except for three pages. In the compiled site, each page has a reference to the assembly that contains its code behind class, e.g.

<%@ page language="C#" autoeventwireup="true" inherits="Staff.UserList, App_Web_t89rsyw_" %>

where App_Web_t89rsyw is the assembly that the page was compiled to. Now I have three different pages that point to exactly the same class, and it seems to only apply to one of the pages, i.e. only one of them has controls on it that match the code in the decompiled class.

This doesn't look like an attempt at obfuscation, because everything else is glaringly accessible and clear. It looks like maybe the site as I have been given it is broken. Is there any explanation for many pages sharing one code behind class?

firefox vs IE newline

I have a problem with ASP.NET and AJAX. I try to post a form in async postback but when I do this in firefox the newlines are \n and in IE they are \r\n which creates a problem when displaying it on the site. I need to replace every \n which is not preceded by \r but how do I do that? This does not happen in normal postback, then all newlines are \r\n.

command.Parameters.Add("?message", MySqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Regex.Replace(tbMessage.Text.ToString().Trim(), "\n NOT PRECEDED BY \r", "\r\n");

Is there a way to say a character should not be there in a regex pattern? how?

I've been testing different regex patterns but I can't get it to work properly.

This looked promising: [^\r]\n it matches any character but \r before \n (I think) but the problem is it also replaces that character...

Strings will be automatically formatted to SQL Server Format...

But you can do the standard which is : MMM-dd-yyyy

use toString("MMM-dd-yyyy") to format
