I've got an AutoCompleteExtender on one of my pages, it seems to be working fine aside from this strange behaviour: Let's say I key in 2 characters, the suggestion list would display. When I press on backspace to delete those 2 characters, wait until the suggestion list to disappear, and re-enter those 2 characters, the suggestion list would no longer display (or sometimes would flicker for about a second after losing focus from the textbox) and I'll need to refresh the page just to get it working again.
However, if I do press backspace and delete those 2 characters but not let the suggestion list to disappear and re-enter new characters, it would continue displaying with correct suggestions. This behaviour seems to happen only in IE8, (although it works with IE8 using Compatibility View and Firefox)... My code is almost the same as the sample on this site except for the animations, and the service looks up in a database table.
I am working on an app and have added masked edits to some of the textboxes. On Google Chrome v6.0.472.62 the backspace button is inoperative along with the delete button. I have found no method around this. It also functions incorrectly on the ajax toolkit website: [URL]
Chrome is fairly popular and I doubt I can use this code with this issue.
I am using a ComboBox from the ASP.NET AJAX Toolkit (version for .NET 3.5) with values populated into its DataSource property.If I use my mouse to drop the combobox down and select a value, then highlight the value and click backspace, I get an error: Microsoft JScript runtime error: '_optionListItems[...].text' is null or not an objectMy DropDownStyle is set to "DropDown" so I should be able to have text in the control that does not exactly match one of the items in it. Therefore, I do not understand why I get this error. It seems to work perfectly otherwise.
I have a situation. I know that backspace and delete don't work if we have asp textbox linked with MaskedEditExtender inChrome browser(may be other browsers have the same situation)but I've written some javascript to handle this.
and in KeyDownHandler I check if it is backspace or delete key pressed and do manipulation with textbox text manually soat the end I have real normal text.And During editing text in textbox everything is fine but as soon as I get focus on another control .. text changes back (as it was before editing)What should I do to change the real text in textbox ? Now I am operating with textBox.value property but It seems MaskedEditExtender save this value or something like this.I found some property in MaskedEditExtender - MaskedEditExtender._LogicTextMask but if I change this .. it works only for particular mask of extender.....
I was just typing on an old site of mine that requires the constant contact method that uses threading and an update panel to prevent users from being logged out since despite setting the timeout period in web.config to what mathematically should be millions of minutes people still seem to get logged out after like 5 minutes. I tried the web service method, but it was ineffective.
The constant contact with an update panel accomplishes its primary objective well, however when a user clicks on their keyboards back button at the wrong time they get redirected to the previous page and if they click the forward button in their browser the page contains none of their typed data.
Is there a way to override whatever causes the backspace button to do this?
In the tutorial for autocomplete text box for static page method in c# the following lines of code is given. When i use it my website using c# it gives error 'invalid term "in" showing in line 7.
[System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute(), System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethodAttribute()] public static string[] GetCompletionList(string prefixText, int count, string contextKey) { // Create array of movies string[] movies = {"Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Superman", "Memento", "Shrek", "Shrek II"}; // Return matching movies return (from m in movies where m.StartsWith(prefixText,StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) select m).Take(count).ToArray(); }
I am using autocompleteextender to receive list of projects. Is there any way that, given list of projects can hold a hidden values like a dropdownlist? I need project ID as hidden value...so that when I select a project from the list, I can retrieve the ID using C#/ASP.Net.
i'm using visual web developer 2008 express edition, i added the ajax toolkit to the tools without issue. SOME tools, like the accordian (and others) allow me to drag and drop them onto my forms. but others, such as the autocompleteextender wil not allow me to drag and drop them onto a form. i just get a circle with a line through it (as if to say - this is not allowed) - why is that?
i tried coding the extender in manually like many examples i've seen online:

I am using AjaxAutoCompleteExtender in my asp.net program (C#) . I am applying the extender to a texbox and using internal Web Service. I am getting the desired result, when i am running from the development environment. After Publishing the site to IIS, I am not getting the list and not showing any errors. I have turned off custom errors. My website is not an Ajax Enabled WebSite. So i added the lines into my Web.Config.I tried all service path.. http://localhost/Test/ WebService.asmxhttp://192.109.1.8/Test/WebService.asmxand i tried ~/Test/WebService.aspxWhile testing from the development environment, i am using the last one.I am not sure whether this is the problem with the service path or any permission issue.
I have an AutoCompleteExtender control as below. I have tested the web service and it is working. When I debug, there is no error message of any kind. But when I type in the TextBox1, the auto completion does not work. Does somebody know what could be the cause?
I am using ASP.NET 3.5...I have a text box where I am using the AutoCompleteExtender for search.
When user enter the key the serach shows the "ProjectNumber-ProjectName" in the search result....after selecting any of this...only ProjectNumber is entered in the textbox (I am using hidden control to store key values)...everything works fine till here.Now I have a problem with values stored in the hidden control...for example in the text box there are three ProjectNumbers ..A,B,C....now I go ahead and delete all these three and enter the key word again...the search work fine but when I select any value the Text box is populated with old value (coming from hidden control) like A,B,C and then new value D
Please suggest me how I can assign the hidden text box value with the new text box values after the selection is done...
function KeySelected(source, eventArgs) {
var labelVal = document.getElementById('<%=this.Hidden1.ClientID%>').value; var userValues = ""; [code]...
How can I use the contextKey of an AutoCompleteExtender ? When I had a search, I got to know that using javascript we can fire the contextkey to the webservice writing this script and how to use it in webservice ????
use a textbox and the AutoCompleteExtender to search for the customer. For example, on the PurchaseOrder form, I have a textbox with a Customer field, and when I type in the name of the customer, the AutoCompleteExtender shows the possible matches.Now, it takes a few seconds to show the list of values, even with setting the correct values on the extender, and if the user types in the name of the company, e.g. Contoso, and leaves the textbox, there might be 2 Contoso's in the database. The AutoCompleteExtender does not continue when the user leaves the textbox, thus the CustomerId is not determined yet.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008, .NET 3.5, on a Vista 64 bit machine. I have a simple application that has 2 textboxes that are both setup with an AutoCompleteExtender. They both work as expected with the following exception only in IE7. The top textbox has the focus by default, I set this in a pageLoad javascript function.
[Code]....
I enter in some text in the top textbox and after 2 characters (MinimumPrefixLength="2") I get the list from my webservice and I've coded it so that once an item from the list is selected it uses the OnClientItemSelected="eventHandlerPnum"to call the javascript function 'eventHandlerPnum' which sets the document.location to a url with the item as a query parameter. This works fine the first time. If I use the back button when I start entering text into the top textbox I get the browser cached entries in a dropdown after the first character and the list from my webservice doesn't show up after the second character.
I've tried this in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari and they all behave correctly, ie they always display the web service list after the second character.
