Ran into a bit of problem when using PageMethods when calling a webmethod in the code-behind. My markup page has a radgrid which gets populated via the objectdatasource.Pagemethods works and returns data as expected when the objectdatasource binds the radgrid with some data but not when the objectdatasource returns nothing, i.e. radgrid is empty. PageMethods call has got nothing to do with the objectdatasource, I'm simply using its output to build a list of checkboxes dynamically on the client side using Javascript. And this is how my code snippets looks like:Markup page:
<script type="text/javascript">
function CallGetARInvoices(src,dest)
{
I have a simple form with a list of linkbuttons, each fires the same onclick event which sets an indicator image. I have a dummy button with style="display:none" which I have set as the TargetControlID of the modal.
onClick event from the imagebutton, the modal is shown via modal.Show(). The cancel button inside the modalpopup fires an event which turns off the indicator image and hides the modal via modal.Hide().
The events fire perfectly, it's very simple! Although after doing some testing I noticed the modalpopup is not presented after the 6-10th cycle of clicking the open event, then clicking cancel. The grey background appears but it is behind the main panel and the modal is either presented behind this or is just simply not displaying.
I spent hours researching various methods, implemented the CancelControlID to see if it was somehow tied to my call of modal.Hide() that fails.This occurs with an updatepanel only. The behaviour is much cleaner this way, so I would hope to be able to implement this. I have basically eliminated everything but these two events!
I have defined a Shared Function in the code behind and a javascript function to call the webmethod. Also, I have EnablePageMethogs set to true in ScriptManager.
I am creating a website in asp.net its a very big site about 250 pages and with a big sql database. I am confused as which ajax method i should follow. There are three options.
1. ASP.NET UpdatePanels -: Simple to use but causes a lots of uneccessary request and viewstate. I want my pages to open as quick as possible.
2.ICallback-: Causes less request and renders the page quickly. But security concerns and viewstate are there.
3.Page Methods with jQuery-: No Security anyone can quickly hack the parameters passed using "POST" mehtod.
I am using an AJAX dropdownlist control with two dropdownlist. Instead of using a webservice to populate the data, I used the pagemethod to populate. My problem is the second droplist won't populate. I get a server error, 500 in the droplist. The first droplist populates fine.
BUT here's the real kicker. If I reverse the order of the public static function such that GetHelloList2 comes BEFORE GetHelloList1 in the code, then the GetHelloList2 works ...... it just seems like it is only firing one pagemethod event and allowign only one.
Since last week I've had a really odd issue with PageMethods, the forms authentication cookie, and the back button which i've never seen before.
Essentially, I have a 'home page' which on document.ready (using jQuery), loads some data through PageMethods, and then renders a list - from which you can click through to a details page about the item. In general use, it works fine. However, using the back button after clicking through (ie: going back to the home page), it throws a PageMethods error. The browser's 'authentication required' prompt appears, and if you click cancel, the server returns a 401. The error returned by PageMethods on the client side is 'authentication failed'.
After inspecting the request in Fiddler, the forms authentication cookie isn't sent with the request, which would explain why it is happening. My fiddler entry for the request looks like this:
Compilation Error: Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately. Compiler Error Message: CS1525: Invalid expression term ')'
Source Error: Line 8: <script type = "text/javascript"> Line 9: function ShowAvailability() { Line 10: PageMethods.CheckUserName(document.getElementById("<%=txtUserName.LoginID%%>").value, OnSuccess); Line 11: } Line 12: function OnSuccess(response) {
I have a project that uses PageMethods to call functions on the server. The server functions (written in C#) return the values as array of strings, without doing any kind of serialization and in the client side (from Js) the accessing of the return values is by using static variable called arguments. I found that sometimes for some users (cases are not repro) sometimes an exception occured
"WebServiceFailedException the server method 'Foo' returned invalid data. the 'd' property is missing from JSON."
Some searching on google I found that people are serializing the return values using DataContractJsonSerializer class and in js accessing the return value using one of the callback function Example:
function OnRequestComplete(result, userContext, methodName) { var Person = eval('(' + result + ')'); alert(Person.Forename); alert(Person.Surname); }
So is the first technique is correct? or what?
P.S:
the function on the server is defined on the default.aspx.cs file as follows:
[System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute(), System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethodAttribute()] public static string[] Foo(string s);
from the client side the calling is as follows
PageMethods.Foo("value",OnSuccess);
Also all the users have the same browser version (IE8)
I have an ASP.Net page with some static methods that I access from the client side using AJAX and the PageMethods capability of the ScriptManager control. The web site has forms authentication setup.My problem is that when the user is not signed in, and makes an action that calls one of the page methods, the operation fails and the failure handler is called as expected but the error object has the status code 500 (internal server error), while it was expected to be 401 (not authorized), because it's the forms authentication module who interrupted the request.Even when I write code like this in the service method:
[Code]....
I also get the status code 500, and an indication of a ThreadAbortException (because of Response.End) in the failure handler. It appears that the handler that carries out service methods calls consider anything that interrupts the execution of the method "an internal server error" regardless of the cause.
Now what should I do if I want to provide a message saying "You are not logged in" to the user, or even redirect him to the login page, while I can't distinguish between the several errors that may occur because I always get status code of 500.
I am using ASP.net with WebMethods to show data to the customer and save data entered by the customer.
My current framework uses javascript to create an xml with all of the values of all the html elements in de "div" (or other element). This xml is converted to a string and send to the webserver using PageMethods.
When I receive this xml (as a string), I parse it with my own XmlDataParser which does some security checks.
I need to parse the xml to an XmlDataParser in every PageMethod I use, and I also need to catch different exceptions (like exceptions that are thrown when data is validated) to show them to the user (=> The reason why is explained in one of my previous posts: [URL]
I wonder if it is possible to write a wrapper around the WebMethod, so I can parse the xml to the XmlDataParser in this wrapper, and pass it on to the code behind, and process exceptions that occur in the code behind?
i have used PageMethods to access the server side functions in javascript , but now my problem is that with pagemethods your controls will not go throught the full page lifecyle and these leads me to have "Object not set for an instance of an object" error. Now can someone come with a differnt approach without using pagemethods. What i want is to call a server side function , i dont want to pass any parameters to it
I am using PageMethods in my pages, and we have some requirement in which some maintenance process happened in certain time span, so in that time we set on DB flag consider as True False, I have written my code in Global.asax where in application_AcquireRequestState(...,...) Method I am checking the flag and depanding upon the flag I am redirecting my Page to one Maintenance dummy page, so application_AcquireRequestState() method working properly when page get postback or I am using thru any server control, but when I am using Asynchronous call using PageMethods in application_AcquireRequestState I am getting exception, Can anyone solve my problem I am using VB.NET.
I am designing an ASP.NET web application (.NET 4.0) which basically has a page that should interact with the code behind every 1-2 seconds (Using Client callbacks or PageMethods via ScriptManager or jQuery.ajax) It'll be hosted on an intranet, so a 1-2 second refresh rate is kind of reasonable.
How can I make the page to access the web service/pagemthod in the code behind in a timeply manner (e.g. every 1 second). Should I use a javascript timer (I'm not familiar with javascrip very much)?
Although the site is hosted on an intranet, but I still need to implement a good approach to reach the desired refresh rate. the amount of data being transfered is about 1KB in each interaction. What are your recommendations on my design regarding this? (using callbacks or ScriptManager or jQuery.ajax,...
Since last week I've had a really odd issue with PageMethods and the back button which i've never seen before. Essentially, I have a 'home page' which on document.ready (using Query), loads some data through PageMethods, and then renders a list - from which you can click through to a details page about the item. In general use, it works fine. However, using the back button after clicking through (ie: going back to the home page), it throws a PageMethods error. The browser's 'authentication required' prompt appears, and if you click cancel, the server returns a 404. The error returned by PageMethods on the client side is 'authentication failed'.
Just FYI, the application is using ASP.NET forms authentication. The weird thing is, this happens as soon as you click the link and click back. It's not like the authentication cookie has expired or anything, and if you click cancel when the prompt appears and refresh the page, it works fine. I just can't work out what is going on. I've tried disabling caching on the page [as I thought it was something to down with some browsers' caches of the DOM), but the same thing happens. One workaround i've had is to redirect the page to itself if the PageMethods error is 'authentication failed', which does work - but only when you cancel the authentication prompt. Obviously the prompt appears, which is not ideal. I don't understand it, and the user is clearly authenticated. Does anyone have any idea which might be happening? It's happening in Chrome, Firefox, and IE.
The page in which this Page_Load resides is called by a parent page. Each time this Page_Load gets called the value of "file" in the query string will be different. So each time I will be receiving the XML contents from a different file which are inserted into the XmlDataSource and then bound against by the Repeater. Getting the XML data from the file works great but when I bind against the repeater that only works the first time through Page_Load. Each time after that when this code is executed the same results from the first XML file are displayed in the repeater.
What am I missing here. How can I get the XML data to be bound against the repeater on each page load instead of just the first one?
I have a webservice (ASP.NET) deployed on a webfarm. A client application consumes it on daily basis. The problem is that some of its calls are duplicated (with difference of milliseconds). For example I have a function Foo(string a,string b). The client app calls this webmethod as Foo('test1','test2') once but my log shows that it is being called twice or sometimes 3 or 4 times randomly. Is this anything wrong with the webfarm or the code? Note that the webmethod has simple straighfarward insert and update statements.
I have an ASP page, which on load fires a bunch of AJAX calls. How can I detect in javascript that all AJAX calls finished? The ajax calls are made using AJAXPRO library. I need this in order to execute some event.
I am relatively new to asp.net. In My asp.net website, i have a method GetData(int id) which is called Repetitively, depending on id count, GetData is desinged to get data from sharepoint and sql server both. if the Id count is high say =10, my page load time increases because GetData is called 10 times and the page load time keeps adding up. so I want to ask, is there any way that this GetData() be called asynchornously or by the use of some thread, so that my page loads faster.
