Feb 1, 2011I need to build a search page and a results page for an MVC3 app.
View 2 RepliesI need to build a search page and a results page for an MVC3 app.
View 2 RepliesI have created a search page using Visual Web Developer and Access as the database. Instead of displaying the results from the search in Gridview on the same page what would be the coding to pass the results to a new page titled "Search Results".
View 4 RepliesI am creating a website for my final year project and I create a search based on this tutorial:
http://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/289_Building_Efficient_Search_Page_Using_QueryExtender_control_in_ASPNet_40.aspx
I would like to show the results from the search in another page. How do I show the results of the search in another page when the user press the button?
Anyone can help providing some code/suggestion on how to implement Search and displaying results on same page using MVC and simple way to implement paging with Ajax.
Below are the search parameters(search Page looks like below) i need to pass to db to get results. We are using MVC2 with entity framework.
Search Criteria- Last Name Course Name Status
I've an ASP.NET page with a textbox and a option from user of the following choices: Wikipedia, Google, Dictionary.com, Flickr, Google images.The user enters a word(s) in the textbox and selects a choice among the following.
Depending on the choice select by the user I wish to return the following.
Wikipedia: Return the content and link to the page corresponding to the topic about the word.
Google: Return the top 10 results of google search for this word.
Flickr: Return a few images atmost 10 images from flickr search
GoogleImage: Return a few images from google image search.
Dictionary: Return the meaning of the word.
How can I do that?
I'm developing a search page that will display the results in a gridview. The codebehind (in VB.NET) uses a SQL command to fill the gridview.
The gridview does have paging and sorting enabled. Once the search button is clicked the initial results are displayed, if the user clicks on a sorted column or wants to advance a page the gridview disappears. Enable Sorting And Paging Callbacks is set to True. Enable ViewState is also set to True.
how to implement Search and displaying results on same page using ASP.net webform and simple way to implement paging with Ajax. The top of the page should have the search criteria and once button clicked, it should display the result below with checkbox so that user can select and delete any / all of the search result.
View 4 RepliesUsing Visual Web Developer I have created a page (Search.aspx) with a Text Box(SourcingIC) and Search Button. I do not want data (Gridview) displayed on the Search.aspx page, just the Text Box and Search Button.
A user inserts name in the text box(SourcingIC), presses the search button and then is directed to a new page (SearchResults.aspx) that displays the records found for SourcingIC. What coding is needed to make this happen? Can you provide me with what actual coding would need to be added?

So I have a website that I recently made changes to, and one of the changes was removing a page from the site. I deleted the page, it doesn't exist anymore.
However, when you search for my site, one of the results is the page that I deleted. People are clicking on the page and getting an error.
How do I remove that page from the search results?
I will explain this as best I can. When a user types in a search field (ASP Textbox field) and presses enter a list of search results are displayed if there is a match. The search results display in the second half of the page. A video will play in the top half of the page but not until a querystring is passed to the page. The querystring value comes from the list of displayed search results. When a user clicks on results from the search (ASP Hyperlink) the querystring value is passed to the same page he/she is on and a video starts playing. My major problem is when I pass the querystring value I do not want to lose the list of search results. It looks like in ASP.net the page refreshes each time you pass a new value. It's not optional to make the user click the back button to see the orginal search results. I'm assuming it has something to do with maintaining session state but I am no expert. YouTube and many other sites do this similar functionality so I figure it must be possible in ASP.Net.
So basically, I want the image that I searched for to continue to display even as I select them and pass there videoID to the SQLDataSource that is expecting the QueryString. All values are being pulled from a SQL 2008 database. When the QueryString value is passed a video will play based on the value that was passed. Currently I have this working but the problem is when I pass the querystring my displayed search results are gone or disappeared. I was thinking that maybe if I could pass the querystring value and the search results value it would work. It would mean reposting the data again but I guess that's a work-around. So for instance if a user typed 'biceps' in the orginal search some kind of way I would store biceps somewhere and pass it again along with the querystring for the video. It doesn't seem like the most eficient way to do it but if someone on here suggest that's the best way I will also need help with that syntax. I am using ASP.Net 4 and VB instead of C#.
I am tring to build a page with advanced search options. Here is my code am I on the right path. What I wnat this to do is if you put something in any one of the textboxes it will filter by that column.

I am trying to develop a page where I am trying to search a database (MyQSL) and display the data in a table format. Some of the database entries, like category, is stored as integer values, but I want to display the category name in the search result (not the corresponding integer value). I have also another issue, every time I change the dropdown list values (which are having "auto postback" enabled) the <EmptyDataTemplate> is returned. At this moment I am using GridView. But I am ready to change this to any other method, like repeater or whatever...
View 2 RepliesI want to know how can I build a simple search engine which search from specific websites, for example it should search codeplex and msdn only and show the result on my page?
View 1 RepliesAs a newbie coming from a Java background with tag libraries I wonder if there is a simple possibility to render areas depending on backend values.For example if I have search form I do not want to render the table for the search results as long as the user hasn't pressed the search button. Of course I can iterate over the model containing an empty list but this does not allow to suppress rendering the whole table.Using web forms I would just control the visibility of the affected tag(s) in the code behind file but how do I do this with ASP.NET MVC?Can I use a partital view for a case like this? But I think I would have the same problem. How can I determine if a partial view is rendered (e.g. the whole result table with header)?
View 7 Repliesi have some text boxs in a page and in the same page there will be a table 'grid' like for holding the search result.When the user start editing and of the textbox above, the search must start by sending all textboxs values to the server 'ajax', and get back with the results to fill the below grid.
Notes:This grid should support paging, sorting by clicking on headers and it will contains some controls beside the results such as checkboxs for boolean values and links for opening details in another page.
I know many ways to do this some of them are:1- updatepanel around all of these controls and thats it "fast dirty solution"
2- send the search criteria using ajax request using JQuery post function for example and get back the JSON result, and using a template will draw the grid "clean but will take time to finish and will be harder to edit later".
3- ....My question is:What do you think will be the best choice to implement this scenario? because i face this scenario too much, and want to know which implementation will be better regarding performance, optimization, and time to finish.
I have a page that works great until now that they wanted to add a ModalPopup based on a field value. Before the addition of this modal popup, i had a button event that would do the inserting of the data, it caused the page to validate and as long as the page passed then it would insert and move on to the next page. Now i have a ModalPopup displaying IF a certain field is empty. If they answer Yes to the modalpopup question, it takes them back to the page and sets the focus on that field. Works fine, but if they select No then i need the page to validate and insert the record and move on.I have a customvalidator for the field i need to check. I then have my insert on the main button that causes the validation. The "Yes" and "No" buttons within the modalpopup have the following setup.
[Code]....
My Main submit button has the following:
[Code]....
If i select NO it just goes back to the page and doesnt move forward. If i select YES and enter something the page pops up the modal again and again because i've clicked in the field and keeps asking even though there is now a value in the field. But since there is a value, i can continue on to the next page.
I created a website. I would like to include a search box that searches the whole website and returns the results.
View 2 Repliesim getting the following exception for use into a master page the helper html.renderpartial(). This works on mvc views that uses this master page, but im trying to execute an old aspx webform page that uses the same masterpage. And here comes following exception:A ViewMasterPage can be used only with content pages that derive from ViewPage or ViewPage.This is the code of my master page:
<body>
<%Html.RenderPartial("PartialView"); %>
<div style="background-color:Aqua;">

What is the best way to pass data to the layout page? Each one of my pages has a different model, but I need to pass consistant data to the layout page so I can show the current app they are on and the array of menu options that get passed into a method that builds the menu.
View 2 RepliesIn order to get Database.Open("sdfsdf"); to work in one of my MVC3 .cshtml pages I had to add a using statement at the top of the page.@using WebMatrix.Data.I added it to the Web.Config file under the <pages><namespaces> section and it didn't work.
1. Do .cshtml pages not respect that section in the web.config? If not
2. Do we need to add @using statements in every page? Or is there a better way?
I can't get helpers like @LinkShare.GetHtml and @Gravatar.GetHtml working despite have references to:
System.Web.WebPages
System.Web.Helpers
And adding @using statements.
3. What am I missing in order to get the helpers working in my MVC3 project?
I have an aspx web page that renders correctly. When converted to razor, it does not. Here is a simplified example (stripped of all extraneous stuff).
aspx:
<asp:Content ID="indexContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="ToolContent" runat="server">
<% string test = "<div><b>Tag Test</b></div>"; %>
<h2><%= test %></h2>
</asp:Content>
razor:
@section ToolContent {
@{ string test = "<div><b>Tag Test</b></div>"; }
<h2>@test</h2>
}
The aspx renders as expected. The razor just displays the content of "test" (<div><b>Tag Test</b></div>) in the header tag.
I assume that my understanding of razor is flawed. If someone could enlighten me and/or show me a solution/work around.
I'm using vs 2008 and i have in my solution: foo.aspx page wich is under two directories, when i try to build it, it gives me en error : " ) expected " on the first line;

CodeFile="TenantsTable.aspx.cs"
Inherits="Manager_Tenants_TenantsTable" %>
[URL] Using the above url as a reference, I can see ELMAH should display the Original ASP.NET error page when the error originates from the View. I have created the following view to generate an error, but the only exception views are Raw/Source data in XML or in JSON.
@{
ViewBag.Title = "ViewError";
}
<h2>View Error</h2>
@{
throw new NullReferenceException();
}
Is it possible to view the Original ASP.NET error page in MVC3?
