Sessions are usually based on cookies and it would be upto the browser as to whether tabs can share cookies or they are persited after the browser is cleared (provided you've set an expiry date).
A new session is created when a valid session cookie isn't found by ASP.Net.

I'm developing in apsx.net and vb.net 2005.
I have 3 pages in my application that are longer than one viewing screen, causing the uwser to scroll to update and see data down the page. The first is of static size, that is the actual page size does not change, there is just a lot of information on the page and the user needs to be able to see all and make changes before processing.
The other two pages are dynamic in nature based on choices that the client makes.
The problem I'm having is that each time the user makes a change that required him to scroll down the page, when the page refreshes, it returns to the top, forcing the user to scroll back down the page to see the affect of his changes.
How do I get the page to refresh with the same view the user had when the change was made.
Thanks in advance for your assistance..

Anchor tag is your friend. Look at the named anchor tag. When you post to the page, pass the anchor tag and the page will scroll (automagically) on refresh.

Thanks for the start..
I have 2 followup questions:
1) does that mean I have to put 'a name="[name of field]"' on every field that can be updated, including the dynamic fields?
2) how is the reference invoked upon refresh, please show code snippet?
Thanks again..
Chuck..

Ok, the general notion is that you add named anchor tags to your page, say something like
<a NAME="ID218395" HREF="#"><a>
notice the title for the anchor tag is blank, so it can not be seen by the user. If you want to be click-able then give it a title
<a NAME="ID218395" HREF="#">My Cool Link<a>
now call the page as
myCoolPage.aspx#ID218395
that is all.

Yusuf, this looks like something that will really work for me.
First I have never used anchors before so there a little be of confusion here on my part. This is an asp.net with vb.net as the code behind.
So when something is changed that causes a postback then the code behind is invoked. How do I activate the anchor location so when the page is redisplayed it envokes the target anchor because there will be at least 20 anchors on each page?
So just to be clear I don't have a problem with creating a hundred anchors if necessary, it is just how to activate the appropiate anchor. If for example an entry from the travel dropdownlist is selected I will need to process the selection then redisplay the page. Upon selecting the dropdownlist theI will need to know its anchor. After exceuting the AutoPostBack routine I will want to return to the anchor for that dropdownlist location.
I hope I am not making this too complicated.
Thanks again..
Chuck..

Chris, don't feel bad. We're all there one day or another. We'd to start from zero.

No matter what you are using, behind the scene, it will spit out HTML code. So, you need to hone your HTML knowledge. Anchor tags are one example.

Well, what is causing the page refresh? Is it button click? or other user action? If it is button click then you need to add the anchored tag to your Response.Redirect() page.
If you give us some more detail about your code we may help you.

I wouldn't use it. It is cumbersome and unmaintainable.

Damn classic asp. You are right. I have being working on the classic asp lately and my memory is filled with that filth

Ok, so we have been through that exercise and discovered that for implementing asp.net that it is not practical to do this.
What is a more practical solution, remembering that this is webforms?
We are talking the use of both buttons and dropdownlists and exiting from fields that have changed..
Thanks again..
|
|
|
|

So will this work with all types of returns, field changes, button clicks and changes in dropdownlists?

Have you read the documentation?

Mark, Great Answer..
The only problem is the documentation on how to is a little obscure for those of use that did not go through the embedded asp wars.
But as you say a little research will get to the answer.
Thanks again for a great call...

pls i have this code
protected void Page_PreLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack = true;
}
but the page still scrolls up when i click a button.
pls help.
|
|

|

Place the MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack="True" statement in the Page directives at the top of the aspx page. I had to do additional searches to find how to use it. Works great for me so far in all cases..
Good luck..

Hi,
I need to retrieve email address of a specified user from LDAP server.
IF i pass username & password displays emailid.
But i have only the username with this when i try to retrieve emailid displays "The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted."
I have googled & tried many options.
Whether any access rights is restricted.
beula.

Looks like right issue. One thing you can do, have an user with admin rights and use that creadentials to access the records in AD.So here you just need have one uname and password which is admin.
