I am trying to create my own website management framework similar to DNN/SiteFinity (only a mucho cut down version).
One of the big (but common) features is to be able to dynamically add user controls to provide additional functionality.
I would prefer to use a pre-compiled .NET "Web Application" over a dynamically compiled "Website".
What are the implications of using LoadControl method to dynamically add a user control for a pre-compiled web applications with specific regard to:
Session (preume I am using the stateserver)What happens to all the other users - will they be logged out?
Application pool recycling due to changes to some compilation??
I am not sure I have ever dynamically added a user control to a pre-compiled web applications as I have mainly been using "Websites" so I am making a large presumption that it will work because if the website is pre-compiled, does this mean the dynamically added user control will be dynamically compiled as required even though the site is pre-compiled?
EDIT
I also forgot to mention that the user controls will be outside of the application directory and so won't be published during web deploy - they will be uploaded via another website.
The web page I am trying to (slowly) build should allow users to add whichever user controls they want on their page, and order them whichever way they like. This is saved in a database.
So each user could have a different number of controls on the page.
This is the design code, at the minute the user controls are fixed and are not loaded dynamically. They user controls are stored in 'blocks' which look like widgets on the page and can be dragged about to different columns. For each user the layout is stored in the DB i.e. which blocks are in column 1 and which blocks in column 2 etc.
How could I change this so that it can create a 'block' div for each user control returned from the database and put the user control in that block and in the right column?

I am using ASP.Net 2.0 with Ajax.
I am working on a pretty heavy page in an application and the scenario is:
There is a Tab control in the page, having four tabs. These tabs individually consist of different user controls and other asp controls. Most of these usercontrols in turn consist of other user controls. Every user control contains huge javaScript functions which validate them, populate controls and call web services.
What I am trying to achieve is to load only the Tab and its user controls on the page load and when the user clicks on a specific tab, load its contents (User controls) dynamically. Once that is done, I am setting the tab's postback to false to prevent loading it again once loaded.
I tried to achieve this by making the user controls in the other tabs - visible="false" in the markup and loading them from server side on some specific event. But that causes the javaScript functions in those user controls to give errors ('Object expected') when I go to that tab.
If I set the user controls in the other tabs to visible true, then no matter what; the page life cycle goes to each registered control and loads every subsequent control in that web user control which makes the main page slow (on loading and every postback).
The position of the Tab and the inner user controls is fixed. Although I am taking care that no data is populated unnecessarily on the page and user controls on hidden tabs, I dont want the tabs to get loaded altogether unless requested. If I load them on runtime, their corresponding javaScripts start giving errors.. note that I am not generating the controls on runtime, they exist in the page design. I just dont want to load them dynamically
First, I would like to apologize, the search on the site wasn't working, so I don't know if I'm missing an existing post or not.
I have a web page that uses a master page file. I am using a third party control from Component One(TabStrip), the tabs are rendered as links on the final page. When a tab(link) is clicked, I need to load the appropriate web user control associated with that tab. Each web user control has its own post backs and methods. I know that I can load the controls on the "SelectionChanged" event of the TabStrip control, but then any postback created by the web user control that is loaded causes the page to refresh and the control was never loaded in viewstate. So, I tried to put my procedure of loading the web user control into the page_init method. This would work, if I could read which link was clicked on from within the page_init method. I tried using a javascript function to run "onclick" of the tabs and within it setting the value of a hidden control. I have verified that the javascript works and that the hidden control's value is getting set correctly. When I get into the page_init method, the value of the hidden control is not readable.
I'm tying to understand the page lifecycle to the fullest, but I don't see what I'm missing here. I know that I need to load the web user controls in the page_init method in order to persist the page as a whole, but how can I get which tab(link) was clicked to know which control should be loaded?
i have a BaseMasterUserControl.ascx and i have create a another ChildUserControl1.ascx
and ChildUserControl2.ascx, both are inherit from a BaseMasterUserControl.ascx.
i have hosted the BaseMasterUserControl.ascx in an aspx page. At runtime i am deciding
which usercontrol should be load. so i am loading a specific usercontrol dynamically and
assigning it to baseusecontrol but content are not visual, is this possible?

Situation: I have a drop down list which I need to pass on to a webservice on button click. I am using Sys.Net.WebServiceProxy.Invoke to make webservice call.
Everything is happening inside a usercontrol which loads on runtime using dynamicpopulate extender.
I get following error:
Sys.InvalidOperationException: Cannot serialize object with cyclic reference within child properties.
Situation: Usercontrol also has a listview which is bound to dataset. However on calling listview.DataBind() in side the webservice method.
I get following error:
The ListView control 'ProductsListView' does not have a naming container. Ensure that the control is added to the page before calling DataBind.
There is no problem when call to service method is parameter less and listitem is not bound.
I have a website the main page holder is placed within an iframe - everytime I navigate to a page from the menu a new page id is set within the frame. I have a left hand panel seperate to thee i frame which is a usercontrol and is static. I'm trying to capture the main iframe pageid from within the usercontrol.When I navigate to to a new page - the iframe is updated but the usercontrol is not, and im struggling to think of how I can grab frame id from within the usercontrol.
I've tried setting trhe page id as a session variable but this isnt accurrate enough. I need to grab it as as soon as a new page is hit.
I have seen multiple posts and websites regarding this issue, yet none of the solutions / workarounds posted have worked for me. I am trying to load an ASP.NET report into an iFrame. The iFrame will load correctly (across all browsers), but when I run the report, Internet Explorer only will show the following error:
ASP.NET session has expired I have tried to use an HTML form to POST and target the iframe, as the workaround suggests here: [URL]I have also tried adding the following to the web.config file of the report application:
<sessionState
mode="InProc"
stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424"
sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;Trusted_Connection=yes"
cookieless="false"

/>
I have also tried to set my server to use InProc mode, and that still does nothing.
I have a website with a menu, when menu item is clicked I display the page for that menu in an iframe(iframe is set to display home page initially by default). sometimes it could take few seconds to display the page for the selected menu item (for example reports) and I would like to display a loading image while the page is loading. how to do this using javascript or jQuery
View 3 RepliesOn a dashboard page I'm loading several controls dynamically; the controls always need to be loaded so there is no if (!Page.IsPostBack) code. The problem though is in that in the code-behind, we are using Request.Form.GetValues and a particular dropdown field's value is always null (presumably because the controls are being cleared and reloaded on a postback) and this is triggering an error later on in the page that expectes a value from this dropdown. I have to use Request.Form.GetValues because the page enables dynamically adding rows (each row containing 5+ HTML inputs) via Javascript.
If I check for postback, then the button event of the control does not fire at all but instead the dashboard page is reloaded, and no controls are loaded at all (i.e. the page is blank).
How do I get around this issue? I need to dynamically load the controls at all times, but I also need to retrieve the values via Request.Form.GetValues.
EDIT
Here's what the code looks like, roughly:
(Client-side HTML)
<table>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<select id="Class1" class="txtboxcomm" name="Class1" runat="server" />
<a href="javascript:classFinder('1')"> Look Up</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<div id="action">
<asp:LinkButton ID="ibtnGetQuote" runat="server" OnClick="ibtnGetQuote_Click" CssClass="getQuote" AccessKey="G">Get Quote</asp:LinkButton>
</div>
(Server-side, in ibtnGetQuote_Click - this is actually a loop since user can append multiple rows; "i" is appended to the word "Class" to find the exact row)
IList<string> classes = this.GetFormValues("Class1");
// This will return null all the time...
private IList<string> GetFormValues(string clientID)
{
String[] values;
values = Request.Form.GetValues(clientID);
if (values == null)
{
Control ctl = FindControl(clientID); // uses built-in FindControl method
values = Request.Form.GetValues(ctl.ClientID);......
The original code was hardcoding the "ctl00$xx$xx" stuff, but the control may or may not be loaded so we cannot guarantee the name the control will get. In fact, I'm not even sure if this will work for all scenarios since only the FIRST control is a server control, the rest are just standard HTML controls so wouldn't have a "ClientID".
I am loading a series of controls in the Page_Load event. However, I have to recreate those controls each page load, which means storing their data elsewhere. This is cumbersome.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MyControl control = (MyControl)LoadControl(...);
control.Initialize(GlobalClass.controlData);
//^gives the control the data it had previously.
//Or use ViewState["controlData"] if serializable.
Controls.Add(control);
}
I feel like I should be using if (!IsPostBack) {}, but I don't know how, or why. In contrast, if I place the controls into the markup, then the controls seem to stay persistent. For example, a button in mark-up will remember any changes to its Text property (I think?).
<asp:Button ID="buttonText" runat="server"
Text="Text Segment" onclick="buttonText_Click" />
How do I maintain some sort of persistence with dynamically added controls, like controls added via mark-up? This would save me much work and frustration.
(I've coded for a small eternity, but the more I do ASP.NET, the more confused I become. Which is exactly the opposite of what how I understood learning to work :-P.)
I have a dynamically-generated textbox and a static text box. They both have enableViewState = false. On the web page, I enter "ABC" in both textboxes. In the code-behind I set both text boxes to "EFG" in the page_load event.
In debug in page_load I can see both textboxes say "EFG". This is what I want.
When I hit the LoadComplete event, the STATIC textbox still has "EFG", but the dynamically generated textbox has gone back to "ABC".
I went one-by-one through all properties on the dynamically generated/static textbox, and they are all identical.
I can't figure out how to get the legend to populate all the "strReason" and get the correct percents to show for each column. This is where I'm at right now.

I need to generate a composite page made up of other pages in our system.Is it possible for me to dynamically add iFrames to a page, each with its own src pointing to different URLs which are determined on the fly? If so, is there a preferred method to this?Otherwise I need to refactor the other pages into user controls so I can add them as needed.

I have 3 user controls that I have to load at the same time. They each contain a gridview that pulls data from the database. They are doing a "delay" load of the data so there is a progress bar template that shows that the data is loading however the first gridview fires and loads, then the second, then the third and I need them to all fire at the same time.
View 3 RepliesI'm using partial page loads off a webservice and was curious if there was a way to load a control through the .asmx file when the part loads. I tried:
Control CallDetailsControl =
this.LoadControl("~/mycontrol.ascx");
I am hoping someone has experience with this, but I am loading a window from a link on my main page. The window loads an ASPX page via the window's loadmethod of iFrame. The aspx page has its own update panel on it and I was wondering how I can call the window's "spinner" / process indicator while the page is processing. I have looked at the documentation on some online information about it but I am not sure how to implement it.
View 1 RepliesI'm working with an asp.net application that stores most data in a database and not session. I'm wondering of the pros and cons of each and which is the better way to go. For example, you have a pretty busy site and instead of storing user specific variables in session, there is a DB table called user data and it can store all user specific data that can be accessed from any page by querying the database. Which is the better way to go, session or database?
View 4 RepliesI've gone rounds with this ever since I started programming classic ASP 12 (or so) years ago and I've never found a great solution because the architecture of ASP and ASP.NET has always been a swamp of bad practices, magic shared singletons, etc. My biggest issue is with the HttpApplication object with its non-event events (Application_Start, Application_End, etc.).
If you want to do stuff once for the entire lifespan of an HTTP application, Application_Start is the obvious place to do it. Right? Not exactly. Firstly, this is not an event per se, it's a magic naming convention that, when followed, causes the method to be called once per AppDomain created by IIS.
Besides magic naming conventions being a horrible practice, I've started to think it might be a reason there exist no such thing as a Start event on the HttpApplication object. So I've experimented with events that do exist, such as Init. Well, this isn't really an event either, it's an overridable method, which is the next best thing.
It seems that the Init() method is called for every instantiation of an HttpApplication object, which happens a lot more than once per AppDomain. This means that I might as just put my startup logic inside the HttpApplication object's constructor.
Now my question is, why shouldn't I put my startup logic in the constructor? Why does even Init() exist and do I need to care about Application_Start? If I do, can anyone explain why there is no proper event or overridable method for this pseudo-event in the HttpApplication object?
And can anyone explain to me why in a typical ASP.NET application, 8 instances of my HttpApplication are created (which causes the constructor and Init to run just as many times, of course; this can be mitigated with locking and a shared static boolean called initialized) when my application only has a single AppDomain?
I have an .aspx page with multiple .ascx (User Controls on it). One of the User controls is very slow in loading (calls a very slow webservice for the data.). Now, my question is how to render all the controls on the page (so the User can view those) and have a rotating icon for this control (slow one) (till it loads). I know, I need to bring AJAX into picture, but any clarification on that would help as I will be new to AJAX programming.
