.NET MVC Url Search Parameter Without Question Mark?
Feb 23, 2010
I have a route defined as:
routes.MapRoute("AllUsers",
"Users/Search/{Search}", new {
Controller = "Users", action=
"Index"});
and the form as:
<% using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Users/Search/", new { RouteValue = "AllUsers" }, FormMethod.Get, new { id = "searchForm" })){%>
<input id="searchBox" name="search" type="text" />
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Search" /><%} %>
Currently as expected this creates a url of ../Users/Search/?search=searchTerm but what I would like is: ../Users/Search/searchTerm . I thought of using javascript, but this seems a little dirty. Is there a more streamlined way of accomplishing this?
Im working on my Dissertation and am seriously stuck. Im creating a blogging site with the ability to log in, this will also include the ability to search for projects etc. (created in Visual Studio in VB)
There are different roles: Student, admin, tutor. the table is made up of 2 tables aspnetdb.mdf and blogging.accdb; the first was created by visual studio and the later is mine that contains the projects, bloggs etc.
I want to use the asp:loginName in a search that is sourcing its data from the blogging database, Iv tried for days to do it myself, by trying to write an inner join manually, using its full name etc but keep coming up against a brick wall.
We have 2 tables that i need to search thru..we are trying to be as flexible as possible with this search page.. a very stripped down version of how search engines are setup..
You have 1 textbox and are free to enter what ever you want..
Well in our case.. we want to setup a textbox on the page.. and pass that into our procedure and have it look thru 5 differnet columns ( id, date, name, time, number )
So if i enter say 1974 into the field, i want to go find any record that contains that in any of the 5 columns..
Is this possible without using SQL Full text indexing??
I would like a site that offers the users the possibility to search over 2 datasources but as i tried to indicate in the subject title the searches are one after another where the result of search 1 is used as a parameter for searching the second datasource. The order of the search would depend for what you search (ideally). Some "fields" or "data" of course appear in both datasources.
To get more specific: datasource 1 contains chemical structures and the associated "id" for this structure + additonal properties. You can search for chemical structures here. (chemically intelligent system). datasource 2 contains documents which are indexed (full text) and have metadata fields one of them beeing above id. No chemical search possible.
The idea is now that i perform a search by chemical structure on datasource 1. As as a result I get a list of id's. These id's are then past into datasource 2 as parameter + also all additionaly parameters entered. There are API's available to perform above searches on the 2 datasources. Is this a reasonable approach? Would it be better to create somekind of a simple datawarehouse, eg a table with all numbers linked to all documents they appear in? (would't know how to achievie this actually since it's the 2 datasoruces are not the same rdbms).
I am trying to get gridview populated on the basis of Date as a search parameter.Date Textbox is taking date as MM-dd-yyyy.Date format in table is dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss.The problem is that when I give date for example 30-04-2010, the data is not populating to gridview as the date in the table is 30/04/2010 12:00:00 .Actually I want to know query.
I have finally got my paging code for a datalist to work correctly. However, the stored procedure I use receives a Parameter called 'name' which is a VarChar 4. I'm having a little trouble implementing the handling of the 'name' parameter in the following code. I receive the error [Procedure or function 'search' expects parameter '@name', which was not supplied.]
Private Sub DataBind() Dim objConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("SQL2005_504887_2onetennisConnectionString").ConnectionString) [code]....
I think it will look something like the following but I'm not sure because this syntax doesn't look like it would work with my above code.
I have approximately 5 pages on a website that need to have a special hyperlink show up in an area that is controlled by the master page. All other pages would not get the link. What is a good way to mark these pages so I can add some C# logic to insert the hyerlink when it is a marked page?
I am writing extensions to a web app that doesn't need to be localized. As the company grows I believe there is a possibility that there may be some effort in the future to do this localization.Mindful of that I would like to mark all of the place that I am using country-specific date formats in an attribute on the method, for example:
For Each exception As String In exceptionDates Dim DateBits() As String = exception.Split("/") dates.Add(New Date(Integer.Parse(DateBits(2)) _
protected string PayPalButtonImage { get { return PayPalExpressCheckoutButtonUrl;} }
why can't it see this property or the server method RedirectToPayPal? I get a runtime error of :'ASP.cart_aspx' does not contain a definition for 'RedirectToPayPal' and no extension method 'RedirectToPayPal' accepting a first argument of type 'ASP.cart_aspx' could be found
is it possible to use Bing Maps or Google Maps (or any other) and mark countries on a world map? I have some countries in SQL DB depending on the logged in user, e.g. France, Mexico, Australia, Japan. These countries should be mark on a world map. Is this possible?
How we can avoid the saving of watermark text of a textbox while saving? In my application, I have one textbox which has a watermark text like enter value(by using ajax textbox watermark extender). when i save the form, the text box returns the value of some white space corresponding the letters of the water mark text. And i used to trim(). but it is saving as old manner.
Using Visual WebDeveloper 2010 Express and ASP.NET 4.0 don't know whether its relevant but the whole thing is in a ContentPlaceHolder and inside an UpdatePanel. To avoid using the old table tr td model, I have created a simple form like this
This renders incorrectly as I would like to have all textboxes vertically lined after taking 300px. What is wrong? I cannot use HTML Controls like label as I have resx for globalization

Is there a command to retrieve the whole string after the question mark (?) in a URL?
For instance, if I have www.joesmith.com/Test.aspx?price=10.00&name=bob&zip=38924, I want to be able to get the part of the string that says, price=10.00&name=bob&zip=38924
