How To Avoid Adding Runat="server" Destroying Server Tags <%...%>
Jul 30, 2010
Adding runat="server" is not rendering my server tags <%...%>
I have a masterpage with a few <li> for menu and since I have to set class=selected for the current page, I am using a little server tag to find the url and assign the particular class.
I have total of 10 <li> and not all menu is available to all types of user, I need to toggle few of the <li> if the user is not admin, so I have runat="server" added to them so I can set their visible=false through c#
Here is how it is at a glance:
<li runat="server" id="liBlog" class='<%= Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.EndsWith("/Blog") ? "selected" : "" %>'><a href="/Blog">Group Blog</a></li>
<li runat="server" id="liPoll" class='<%= Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.EndsWith("/Poll") ? "selected" : "" %>'><a href="/Poll">Poll</a></li>
<li id="liInvite" class='<%= Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.EndsWith("/Invite") ? "selected" : "" %>'><a href="/Invite">Invite</a></li>
<li id="liFavourite" class='<%= Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.Contains("/Favourite") ? "selected" : "" %>'><a href="/Favourite">My Favourites</a></li>
The <li> without runat="server" works fine, when on correct page the source code shows class="selected" or class="" as appropriate, the other <li> used to work fine too, until I decided to add the runat="server".
Once I added that runat="server", the whole block of class="" is being sent out to the html page, its not processing the server tags at all! I right click on the html and look at the source, it's being rendered as:
<li id="ctl00_ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_liBlog" class="<%= Request.Url.AbsoluteUri.EndsWith("/Blog") ? "selected" : "" %>"><a href="/Blog">Group Blog</a></li>
It's pouring out my server tags into the source code!
Why is this behaviour seen? How can I avoid it?

(I have tested this with a vanilla asp.net site running from the webdev server and it is a problem here also):
I have the following markup in my .master file

Clearly Asp.Net does something to encode the url. As it happens, I really need the head tag to be runat="server" and I would also like to be able to have "&" in link-urls within it is there some trick I can use to have my cake and eat it too?

I created an asp.net Server control that derives from a LinkButton, and renders a small javascript function to the page. I want to use this control many times on the page, but just want the javascript to be rendered once on the page. On the other hand, I rather not manually add it in a js file, because i don't want to have a chance of forgetting to add the js file in the future.

HOWTO create ASP.NET C# controls on server side for posted data that had no runat=server on the client.
I have processes needing to post files to a ASP.NET application. These processes must post without runat=server as such:
<form ~~~~ to some ASP.NET/C#/aspx page>
<input type=file name=MY_FILE ~~~>
</form>
On the ASP.NET page, in the Page_Load I would code somethign like this:
[URL]
Here is the trick, the control "fileLIST_FILE" does not exist because the HTML does not have runat=server on it.
If the client did have runat=server the designer.cs would have somethign liek this:
System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile fileLIST_FILE;
With all that said, I want to make "fileLIST_FILE" on the fly inside Page_Load fromt he posted name of "MY_FILE".
do not focus on the fact that this is a file upload. I would like to know how to do this for any posted FORM data.

When I use an anchor tag on an aspx page as below,
<a href="~/pages/page.aspx?id=<%= ServervariableName %>"> test </a>
it will get the variable value correctly assigned to id but it won't route the page correctly as the ~ will not be evaluated without the runat="server" attribute on the 'a' tag. But once I add the runat server attribute, it does not evaluate the servervariable name anymore.. how this works or what I should do to take care of both?

I'm new to writing custom ASP.NET server controls, and I'm encountering the following issue:
I have a control that inherits from System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl. I override the control's Render method, use the HtmlTextWriter to emit some custom HTML (basically a TD tag with some custom attributes), and then call the case class' Render method.
Using the control:
<dc:Header id="header1" runat="Server" DataColumn="MemberNumber" Width="30%">Member Number</dc:Header >
The problem is that when I view my rendered HTML, the server tag is emitted to the client as well (right after the TD tag):
<dc:Header id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder_testData1_testData1_header1">Member Number</dc:Header>
How do I prevent this from happening?

Its simple if I have an ASP.net page with an ASP.net linkbutton / hyperlink and I obtain a value from say a SQL Database and I store it in the label...
For example:
this.myLabel.Text = someValueReturnedFromADatabase
This is simple because it goes right to the code behind page and set the text value to the value returned from my database (aside from going into more details with data access layer, etc).
What I was wondering is what if I dont want to use an ASP.net linkbutton and I simply want to use an HTML link button (as I need to call the jquery fade function). How would I set the value someValueReturnedFromADatabase to a control that is not runat=server?

I have created a new Web project (.Net 3.5) and I've removed the original Default page in favour of creating a Master page and then recreating a Default with Master page. All worked lovely. Now, when I add my controls inside of the ContentPlaceHolder on the Default page, I get compiler errors when I try to access the controls from the CodeFile:
Error 4 '_Default' does not contain a definition for 'FirstName' and no extension method 'FirstName' accepting a first argument of type '_Default' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
My declaration of the control:
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="FirstName" />
EDIT
Page declaration:
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Master/MasterPage.Master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>
Code-behind:string firstname = FirstName.Text;

I've got the following in my .aspx:
<input type="image" src="<%=PayPalButtonImage %>" onserverclick="RedirectToPayPal" runat="server" />
In the code-behind I've got this property:
protected string PayPalButtonImage
{
get { return PayPalExpressCheckoutButtonUrl;}
}
protected void RedirectToPayPal()
{
}
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

I've got the ImageButton wrapped inside a form tag with runat="server" but STILL getting this error at runtime. The form tag is at the very beginning (before my table) and end tag is at the end (after the table).
<td>
<div>
<div id="pay-Button"><asp:ImageButton ID="PayButton" ImageUrl="<%=PayButtonImageUrl %>" OnClick="RedirectTest" runat="server" /></div>

In other words, why can't I do this:
<a id="projectsButton"
visible=<%= someFunctionWhichEvalsToFalse() ? false : true %>>
</a>
It seems to do nothing. I checked this by switching the false and true.

I have this problem - I'm working on an ASP.NET AJAX-application on a server without .net 3.5 which means I can't use ListView (BOO!).
I decided to simply do the ugly way of making a table and giving the tbody an ID and a runat server tag, and put HtmlControls inside from the codebehind (btw - this is a usercontrol, in case it makes a difference).
This all works fine - until the page does a partial postback - and all the elements disappear, since the tag is runat server I assume it requires to be repopulated in the page load.
Is there no way to actually persist the data on partial postback? And only have the content of the control change when I say so in the back end?
I guess I could save the content in a session object upon populating the control, and just repopulate in the Page_Load with the session object - but I was hoping there was a better way to do this?
