Client-side JavaScript ViewState Update In .net Forms?
Feb 3, 2011
I have stumbled upon the issue when I need to retract html controls I've added client-side using JavaScript after the postback (due to server-side validation - this is not optional). I'm trying to achieve this is cr*p and there's a better way of doing this.
basically, what I'm doing is cloning a textbox control for up to 10 times on the page when the user hits "Add" and storing entered values from each of those texboxes in a hidden field to read from in the code behind. This works fine, however, when the server side validation doesn't pass after postback, all those dynamically added (cloned) texboxes disappear, since ViewState knows nothing about them.
I am considering 2 possible solution, both of which seem hacky:Rebuild all cloned textboxes on document onload() using stored values in the hidden field wrap the form in ajax update panel and place the cloned texboxes outside of it, thus, not refreshing this part of the screen on postback now, is it possible to somehow "update" ViewState to make it aware of all the html controls I've added using client-side script? I'd like to achieve this with client-side script, therefore not considering cloning textboxes on server-side,
I have an asp.net page that is using and update panel and am including some javascript via a {script src=abc.js} tag. I have tried loading my javascript using both $(document).ready and $(window).load. Both fire on the initial load but fail to fire on an update panel postback.
Is there anything I can wire up client side that would fire regardless of the update panel? I know I can inject script server side but I ideally want to do this all client side and wire up what ever is needed the first time around.
I have a user control which contains a CustomValidator which is used according to whether a RadioButton is checked or not (there are several RadioButtons, I'm only showing the relevant one)
There is some client + server side validation code (the server side code does exactly the same thing and is skipped for brevity)
<script type="text/javascript"> function ValidateDateFields_Client(source, args) [code]...
There are two instances of this control in the page. When running the client side version it hits the wrong one (the version of the control which is disabled). You can see from the generated HTML both are correctly specified. I'm not sure how .NET works out which clientside function to call given they both have the same name.
[code]... Do i need to add something in to scope it? What's the best way to achieve this? If I disable the loading of the second control everything works fine.
I have a requirement of adding server side variables in client side and other way round. Because I need to set a value from client side using javascript and access the same in code behind page.
I have a list of items on an ASP.net page. That list is selectable in that whenever the user clicks on one, the page does a postback and the server code stores the index or some unique identifier of the picture in a ViewState property indicating that it is currently selected.
I would like to minimize the load on the server and therefore I would like to store the index or unique identifier representing the image in some way on the client side. The best way I can think to do this is to store said information in a hidden field ), however I had two questions about this before I go crazy:
Is this a security risk in any way, shape or form (i.e., exposing implementation details of the page)? Is there a better/best way to do this that is more industry-standard? Does ASP.net provide a framework to do this that is cleaner than my idea? Seems like this would be a fairly common requirement to me...

I have two comboboxes and would like pass selected value and text to the server method (RadComboBoxItemsRequestedEventArgs) when the first combobox selected index changed.
Here is my code. But I am getting Javascript error message at this line. RadComboBox2.requestItems(item, false).
I'm working on developing a custom control to select items from a predefined list. This is accomplished via 2 ASP.NET ListBox controls, with a few buttons to trigger the movement of ListItems from one ListBox to the other (lets call these ListBoxes lstSelected and lstDeselected).
This is easy enough to do in ASP.NET or JavaScript independently: I have both working. However, if modifications are made via JavaScript, ASP.NET retains no knowledge of this. Is there any way to register the creation of of options in a select tag without AJAX?
I've got a function I wrote quite some time ago that works fine, but I'd like to speed up the process and lessen server load by doing the same job in Javascript.I seem to be able to GET textbox values ok, but I can't seem to SET textbox values (I'm'-a JS noob). Can anyone lend a hand in converting my VB.NET code to it's JS equivalent?

I want to enhance a composite control's client side, my approach is to recreate all method on JavaScript, so here I have some troubles:Can I call onclick event on client side otherwise on server side?the statement table.onclick=SelectRow(event) fires a bug!Code:

I can not figure out how to get client side javascript to change the error message of the CustomValidator, unlike server side I can change ErrorMessage property. Here is the client side javascript declaration:
I know that I can receive an javascript object from the server via ASP.NET AJAX using Json. But I am not sure how can I send an javascript object from my client-side javascript to my server-side code. And if I can, how can I extract this object in my server-side code and access its members?
Is there any way to add a confirmation dialog to a submit button when the form already has other validation controls and a summary control using "showmessagebox=true"? I tried adding
OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure?');" to the submit button, but that seems to block all of the other validation?
want to know that can we validate a control which is out side a form element in asp.net(server side validation)and outside a form element in html(client side validation) let's take a closer look
I have a page setup that displays a datagrid connected to a access database file. I setup a timer to compare the last write time of the access db file and current time (with in 4 seconds). Once the times are with in 4 seconds of each other it requests a refresh of the data. The webpage is displayed on 4 thin client PC's with 0 user involvement so the WebPages need to update themselves. Due to the fact I'm limited to Access I'm trying to limit the # of times a day they are accessed by the auto-update.
The problem I'm having is when the timer ticks it POSTs to the web server. I have 3 WebPages setup watching 3 DB's for different location where I work but they all run of an IIS server in my office. So this creates a lot of unneeded traffic and log files. (Currently 5-6megs per day)
I was wondering there is a better way to compare the files on the clients machine and only post back for an update when they are with in 4 seconds of each other.
The site is built with MS visual web dev 2010 express written in Aspx and code lang is VB. I'm using system.io.file.getlastwritetime to get the file information for comparing.
but I am rather confused about what to invest in. I heard that server-side code translates into client-side code. So, if you have an .aspx file, it will be converted to HTML/CSS/JavaScript. I have experience with the latter three technologies put into a rather dull text file and rendered by a web browser. My question is how much HTML/CSS/Javascript coding would I have to do when server-side programming? In other words, can someone using ASP.NET program purely on the server side and not bother to write for the client side? Of course, I don't care about server-side being translated into client-side, but I am wondering if client-side programming needs to be done explicitly and to what degree.
I am using two listbox for moving items from one to another using jquery. Auto postback is set to false for both the listboxes. Is there a way to access the items server side on postback?

Maybe I've picked a totally inappropriate/bad example. What I have is a user control that contains a bunch of dynamically created Telerik RadGrids. My user control is added to a couple of Telerik RadPageViews that are part of a RadMultiPage that is used alongside a RadTabStrip. What I need to do is call a Javascript function in my usercontrol to update it's display whenever it's parent RadPageView is selected. So basically I have the following Javascript code:
function OnClientTabSelected(sender, args) { // Get the MyControl that is on this tab var myControl = $find("whatever"); // Call a method that updates the display myControl.doSomething(); }
I have a webform that has a lot of controls and a submit button. When a user submits clean data, there is an asp.net label control that displays a "form submitted successfully" message. My problem is that after this successful submission, if the same user enters some invalid value for some fields on the same form and clicks on the submit button, the page still displays the success message along with the asp.net error message for that field (By using the asp.net validation control). My question is how do I get rid of the success message in this scenario? (In this case all I want to display is the client side validation error message). I am not that familiar with javascript.
Here is the markup for the label and button .I tried calling a javascript function on the OnClick event .This disables the success message, but the validation error messages are displayed after a post back.I want to display the validation error messages without a post back.
