I have a webiste that is going into IE7 Mode in IE8 and I dont want it to beI've tryed adding the meta tag to force it but IE just ignores it when on the server.I've also tried adding it to the Web.config and the root Web.config of the server.Can anyone help as the site does not render correctly under IE7 mode in IE8 and we use IE8
View 1 RepliesWe are developing a web application that will be used exclusively on intranets. We are designing the site to work on IE8 and have come across an issue where IE7 mode (or compatibility mode) really screw everything around. Is there a way to force IE8 to display in IE8 mode and not allow the user to override this?I have tried using the following:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" >
Also note that all our users will be using IE8.

The session_timeout is firing during the session timeout, but the User.Identity.IsAuthenticated is true. How force to use the Windows Logon Screen when the session is timeout.
View 4 RepliesI've been watching a video on Scott Hanselmnn teaching MVC 2 tricks/tips. He mentions how MVC 2 by default uses ASP.NET Web Forms view engine to render the output of the views; he mentions that the web forms view engine is a little slower than it could be for MVC 2 since it generates a control tree and then outputs the HTML to the page (I hope I said that right).
I was wondering what he meant by web forms generating a code tree before outputting the HTML to the page. Does anyone have insight on the view engine of Web forms and the steps of the rendering process works for ASP.NET and MVC2?
I have a client request that all times be displayed in Pacific Time Zone, regardless of client settings. I'd like to avoid a scenario where I have to call a function for every time display and instead have a single point where I can make the switch.
I'm thinking a custom culture might do the trick, but I wanted to ask before I set off down a potentially blind alley (or miss something trivially easy).

View 5 RepliesWhen you have a public class declared and this class is used somewhere outside the class, you want them to invoke the function X before using other functions. What do you do? In other words, in a class C, you have a constructor and function X, Y, and Z. When this class is used, you want to make sure function X is the first function called other then the constructor.

Does anyone know how I can force the page to refresh (load the GET controller for that page) when the back button is pressed in MVC?
View 4 RepliesIs there a method or something to force the expiration of all of the entries in the Cache collection of the HttpContext?
View 1 RepliesI have a webpage with a button. If I click the button and enter the event handler for the click event (so I have actually a postback) I want to force a second postback in this event handler.(Background for this weird seeming request is: I change the theme of the page in the button click event handler. To make this change immediately visible I need to pass the PreInit event of the page again.)At the moment I force a "refresh" of the page by redirecting the page to itself:
[Code]....
But this clears all controls on the page as if I would enter the page the very first time. For instance, a textbox already filled out by the user is emptied. But I want only a postback which does not change any control contents.
I have an ASP.NET data bound dropdownlist which is populated based on the contents of a textbox. After it is populated I would like to expand the dropdownlist automatically, so that the user realizes that a choice needs to be made and doesn't need to click on the dropdown to expand it. There doesn't seem to be a property or method do do this.
EDIT: After trying out Ed B's example, I am still stuck. The id of my ddl is 'ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder9_ddlContact'. If I put the following in the onclick event of a button, it works fine, the dropdown expands nicely:
document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder9_ddlContact').size=10;
However, the following code in the Databound event of the ddl shows the alert but doesn't expand the dropdown:
string script = "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE='JavaScript'> ";
script += "alert('expanding');document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder9_ddlContact').size=10 </SCRIPT>";
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(GetType(), "Dropdown", script);
I have a web application with many .cs files.
In one of the .cs file (lets say MyCode.cs) there a function (lets say MyFunction)
function MyFunction()
{
//line 1
//line 2
//line 3
}
Now, sometimes line 2 and line 3 takes about a minute to run/timeout (in rare case when some other system is offline).
Without changing the timeout values of the rest of the application or page is it possible to do something that throws an exception if line 2 and line 3 are not finished running within 15 seconds?
I've been playing around with a .NET ActiveX control in a web page as a possible solution to a particular situation. I set up a .NET user control project, added some UI controls, and eventually got the DLL to load in Internet Explorer and run. However, I've run into two problems.
1) I've tested it on two Win XP PC's, one with IE7 and the other with IE8. Everything works fine in IE8, but I get various permissions errors in IE7. Both machines have the same security settings in IE (it's in the trusted site zone, all ActiveX relating settings are the same, etc.). Does IE7 somehow interact with .NET differently then IE8? So far I've only been able to test it on the two machines.
2) Is there any way to force IE to reload the .dll from the server? I've tried everything I know (F5, Ctrl-F5, Ctrl-Refresh Button, Alt-D Enter, etc.), but it seems like IE randomly loads different versions of the .dll. Closing IE and restarting usually gets it to load the latest version, but that's not very convenient when making mods and testing them.

I have an asp.net web service which has SSL enabled via IIS. It works fine if the user uses https, however I have a user that insists on using http on the url.
What I'd like to do is have the web service (asmx) do the equivalent of the response.redirect to change http to https automatically.
I don't believe that I can do this from a web service so does anyone know a of a similar solution for web services.
I´m using a template that comes with visual web developer 2010. It uses a css style sheet.
After several weeks of frustration I figured out that changes to the stylesheet doesn´t take effect until I reboot the computer. Not the webdeveloper, but the computer(!). This cannot possibly be right, can it? How do I force the webdev to apply changes to the css?
Is there a way change the settings of the web broser to "Work Offline Mode" ? or the only way of doing it is to install activeX that doing so?
View 2 RepliesI have created a test user/password on my web site. The intent is to have prospective clients login and try out the tool. Instead of telling them the userid/password of the test user, I'd like to tweak the Login wizard.
In the Load event, I was able to specify login1.UserName = "test user"
But when I try to specify the password, I'm told it is a readonly field. How can I 'force' a specific password? Or, how can I call the login event directly and pass the needed values?
I have run into the problem where my css files are being cached in browsers. This is a fairly common problem, and a common solution is to simple add a version number in the url to the css file. Example: MyCSS.css?ver=1.12
However, I'm using a custom skin for DotNetNuke which forces the usage of the file: skin.css
I don't have a way to point browsers to skin.css?ver=1.12 (or at least I'm not aware of a way)
Are there any tricks I can play with IIS, DNN, or ASP.NET (default.aspx file for DNN perhaps?) to force clients to reload CSS?
I'm having a ridiculous problem. I'm trying to use URL rewrite to redirection from www.domain.com to www.domain.com/default.aspx.I thought by setting default.aspx as the default document it would automatically drop the user there. But for some reason it still comes up www.domain.com.The reason I want it to go to www.domain.com/default.aspx is that the login control on the page doesn't seem to want to work when it is just the www.domain.com. But of course if I type in the www.domain.com/default.aspx then the login works fine. The login control doesnt seem to post at all if it is www.domain.com.
View 2 RepliesDoes ASP.NET have the capacity to force a user to a login page if they open a new tab or window to the site? So I've got a window open to A Site, I open a new tab to A Site, or a new window to A Site, is it possible to automagically detect that and force a fresh login?
I have a client who is trying to press this requirement on me, and insists that they do it in-house using Session.IsNew. That of course only works when the session has timed out. Is it possible to force a fresh login within an existing session when a new window or tab opens, or no?
