I have worked almost for a year now on PHP. I was using C#.NET for my academic projects. But, i am getting offers to switch to ASP.NET/C# these days. Would leaving my current platform be fruitful? My familiarity with Open Source technologies is deep & couldn't decide what should i do with these offers.
View 5 RepliesI'm a front-end guy who's picked up ASP.NET WebForms through working on various projects at my agency.I have a project with a developer in mind, and I want to use/learn MVC for it - but he thinks it not worth using MVC at all. His opinion is that the benefits of MVC are perceived, and that performance won't be an issue, and it better to just push forward with WebForms.
The project is a web app that will give people project planning tools, creation of a personal contact database, and their own basic website.My personal feelings are that I hate all the bloat that comes with WebForms sites - the ViewState, the one , the enormous JS files, the lack of control of markup (e.g. validation controls).Obviously, ASP.NET WebForms is linked to resources, but MVC is about URL structures and interpreting them.
After discussion and research I'm thinking now that because of the supposedly large transition/learning curve of MVC, it really is better to just stay with WebForms.I watched Ryan Singer work with RoR MVC in person, and I was stunned at how rapid everything was to develop.Should I just accept that it's more pragmatic and productive to keep with WebForms now, and not use MVC, or should I find a way of convincing my co-worker that MVC is the right thing to do?

View 2 RepliesI'm building a website that just allow each person in my office to access the page from their own PC placed at the office only. It looks like I need to identify a client from within the codes on the ASP.net web server. How can I do this?
View 2 RepliesI have no experience in ASP.NET development.We have installed a Webmail product from Afterlogic. we have to remove the markup for a logout button. but we are not able to edit the .aspx files. we can remove the markup for the button compleately.but it is still there on the page when we refresh.Do we have to recompile the whole thing each time we make a change ? Is this some sort of cache problem ? We have tried to delete the browser cache. but it had no effect.
View 2 Repliesi have a custom membership provider and do manual validation of the user when they log in and set a persistent cookie with this bit of code:
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(this.txtEmail.Text,
this.cbRememberMe.Checked);
The cookie gets set fine. I can tell it has all the data it needs by looking at it in Fiddler once im validated. However coming back to the site im always getting prompted to log in again. I am starting to think the problem isn't how im saving the cookie but that maybe my custom membership isn't acutally looking for this auth cookie again. Or im naming it wrong or something.
Two things
1) My membership provider is custom and NOT added to web.config - it's a .cs file that connects to a CMS back end for the validation and it works fine logging people in and such it just never keeps (or uses) the persistent cookie.
NOTE: the persistence doesn't work anywhere (on my local machine / staging server or live server - Application name is simply "/")
NOTE 2: as an aside we have a google search applicance. Which we baked a 10 year cookie for on this site - we opened up the cookie and used the encrypted string in the google search appliance (this is how you get it to get past logins, etc) and this thing works great- it logs itself in no problem all the time. SO i am a bit lost as to why a user with an almost identical cookie is not getting logged in.
I have this code that loop through table controls how do stick the seleted information into a session variable. Then i have to pass it into another page table control.example code
[Code]....
i have a menu bar in my master page that is made up of 4 hyperlinks with background images that are being set using css. on hover-over, these images are swapped out, also by css. so each menu item (hyperlink) has two images, a static image and a hover-over image. when a user clicks one of the menu items and is taken to that page, i would like that hover-over image to "stick" for that page. here's my code:
<div id="nav">
<asp:HyperLink ID="hlHome" runat="server"
NavigateUrl="~/Default.aspx" CssClass="menuHome" />
</div>
#nav a, #nav a:visited
{
height:39px;
border:none;
padding:0;
display:block;
cursor:pointer;
}
a.menuHome, a.menuHome:visited
{
width:76px;
height:39px;
background:url('home.gif');
}
a.menuHome:hover, a.menuHome:active
{
width:76px;
height:39px;
background:url('home_hover.gif') no-repeat;
}
my hyperlinks background images are rendering, the mouse-over effect works too, i just can't get the mouse-over image to "stick"/stay active.
