a) In Asp.Net we can check whether a request is a postback or not via Page.IsPostBack property.But where does this property get its value from? Thus, where in the incoming request does browser put this value? b) As far as I can tell, hitting a reload button also causes browser to send form data back to the server. Thus, is under the hood hitting browser's reload button same as pressing a submit button ( which is nested within a FORM element)?c) Assuming browser displays A.aspx for the fist time and assuming user clicks browser's reload button, then I would think this request will be considered as a postback by Asp.Net (especially since browser also sends back any form data), but it's not.
(probably a bot) sent a request with the following URL to my ASP.NET 4.0 web forms application (running on IIS 7.0):http://ipaddress-of-my-applications-domain/bla1.bla2.bla3.bla4.bla5:)This caused an System.Web.HttpException. I received a logging email from ASP.NET HealthMonitoring I had configured, telling me:A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (:).
Why is a colon in the URL "potentially dangerous"? What dangerous things can be done with such a URL? Do I have any security hole here I am not aware of?
Can we consider that two clients accessing the same method of a web service at the same time are two threads (with all problems involved...) ?Is it the same thing for methods in an asp.net web application ?
I'm implementing a custom page caching solution and I don't want the request to be cached or retrieved from the cache if it's in response to a form submission or some sort of asp.net postback.I'm trying to figure out if the current HttpRequest is a postback. Is there a way of doing this outside the context of a page or other usercontrol? In otherwords if I'm inside an HttpModule I don't have access to this.IsPostBack but I still need to determine if it is in fact a postback.
I'd like to get the HTML output of the page, and be able to send it via email. I'm having problem with session, because the report redirect me to the login page because when I create a new WebRequest, it doesn't use the information of the current session.
Is there a way to get the HTML of the report without having to code a work-around for the security ?
I'm trying to access text from a ButtonField(databound), but I can't get the text if I refer to it as a TableCell. What can I do to get its text?Markup:
I'm using the new Aurigma Image Uploader Flash control, and creating sample pages works great. However, when I drop this control onto an existing page on my existing site, it doesn't work. I can only suspect something in the masterpage or something else on the page is messing with it.
My app has broken after upgrading to ASP.NET 2.0. The problem is that Request.QueryString is empty when the SelectedIndexChanged event of a IE Web Controls tab strip is fired. It worked perfectly in ASP.NET 1. I have the tab strip contained within my own UserControl.
PRB .NET User controls is considered published by an "Unknown Publisher" from my ASP.NET pages.We have a .NET User conrol, based off the UserControl class and coupled with the IObjectSafety interface that generates a "Unkown Publisher" warning message when our control is deployed from our ASP.NET applications. The warning pops up as a dialog from the browser, asking the user if they want to install our control, saying that it is from an "Unknown Publisher".1) Our <OBJECT> tag is scripted correctly in our page as such:
I want to provide status updates during a long-running task on an ASP.NET WebForms page with AJAX.Is there a way to get the ScriptManager to execute and process a script for a web service request concurrently with an async postback? I have a script on the page that makes a web service request. It runs on page load and periodically using setInterval(). It's running correctly before the async postback is initiated, but it stops running during the async postback, and doesn't run again until after the async postback completes.
I am trying to add some JQuery animations before and after every postback request is made inside my UpdatePanel. What I have so far is something like this:
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_endRequest(EndRequestHandler); Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_beginRequest(BeginRequestHandler); function EndRequestHandler(sender, args) { if (args.get_error() == undefined) { // End Request (1) } } function BeginRequestHandler(sender, args) { // Start Request (2) } $('.MyButtons').live('click', function () { // Before request (3) }); }); </script> <asp:UpdatePanel runat="server"> <ContentTemplate> <asp:Button runat="server" CssClass="MyButtons"/> </ContentTemplate> </asp:UpdatePanel>
Let say I want to put some animation code at (3) that will be executed and then proceed with BeginRequestHandler function. How should I do that? Because right now the whole process executes 3,2,1 and I dn't know how to add that delay between steps 3 and 2. In other words I want to execute step 2 manually at step 3. Don't really want to use hidden buttons to do that.
According to MSDN and the MCTS self-paced training, asp.net can use Hidden fields for client-side state management. The book material goes on to say view-state is more secure than hidden fields because the data is encrypted. I must be missing something here. I setup a Label and made it hidden. I can store data in this hidden label and it won't even be sent to the client browser. This not only works like server side state (note the runat=server), but this seems more secure than view-state because there's no need for encryption as the client can't even see the field.
I'm having trouble understanding when the site is considered "pre-compiled". As I understand what I've read, if I use the Publish or Build Deployment Package options from within Visual Studio then it is pre-compiling, but if I just use something like xcopy, then it is not pre-compiled.
I know that dynamic buttons and buttons in general don't use a typical postback and they post through the page.request.form. Okay, so in visual studio, I was able to determine that page.Request.form and in the all-keys property, i SEE my button there. It is the last item in all-keys.
When I am clicking this dynamic button which is in an updatepanel, the script below does not detect it as a button, it is still showing it as null:
public static Control GetPostBackControl(Page page) { Control control = null;
[Code]....
but here is the kicker, when I am traversing through the object, I am looking at the object C and the property 'ctl'. The ctl is showing me a value of "ButtonRow_0Col0" and it is of type string. This is good! But , the 'c' control object still says 'null'.
I have a webservice which works 100% fine on my developer machine. Where Web Service is installed on LOCALHOST on my developer machine,Then i went to my servers, I installed webservice on one server and map it with the server where the website is hosted, Then i tried accessing this service using BROWSER from my web server, it worked fine, That means the mapping was done perfect.Then i run my program on web server (website). It worked fine on page1, then on page2, but when i did the same and call same function on page3, It popped me any error of
Is it at all possible to inject a request into IIS for a page, have IIS and ASP.Net handle it as normal, but get the response as html handed back to me programmatically?
Yes, I know that I could connect to port 80 using WebRequest and WebResponse, but that becomes difficult if you are accessing the IIS server from the same physical machine (loopback security controls et al).
Basically, I want to inject the request (eg for [URL]) between the points at which IIS would normally talk to the browser, and the point at which it would route it to the correct ASP.Net application, and get a response back from IIS between the points at which ASP.Net/IIS applies the httpfilters and hands the html back to the browser.
I'm predominantly working with IIS7 so if there is a solution that works just for IIS7 then thats not an issue.
when i browse the page with firefox and click on the input Request.Params["btnshoppingCart"] != null or Request.Form["btnshoppingCart"] != null is statisfied.
When i browse the same page with internet explorer 8 and click on the same input Request.Params["btnshoppingCart"] != null or Request.Form["btnshoppingCart"] != null is not satisfied. When i used the watch i saw that there is no key by the name of "btnshoppingCart" in either Request.Form or Request.Params if input is clicked from internet explorer. However when it is clicked from firefox there is value "shoppingCart" inside Request.Form and Request.Params against "btnshoppingCart" key. One more strange thing that i observed was that are two keys "btnshoppingCart.x" and "btnshoppingCart.y" inside both Request.Form and Request.Params whenver clicking is done from both internet explorer and firefox. This is happening against all inputs of type image irrespective if the input is present inside a html form or not. Forms are created like this
<% using (Html.BeginForm("Action", "Controller", FormMethod.Post)){%>
The version of internet explorer is 8.0 and firefox is 3.6.6
I there a way to know if a request is a soap request on AuthenticateRequest event for HttpApplication? Checking ServerVariables["HTTP_SOAPACTION"] seems to not be working all the time.
public void Init(HttpApplication context) { context.AuthenticateRequest += new EventHandler(AuthenticateRequest); } protected void AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e) { app = sender as HttpApplication; if (app.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_SOAPACTION"] != null) { // a few requests do not enter here, but my webservice class still executing // ... } } I have disabled HTTP POST and HTTP GET for webservices in my web.config file. <webServices> <protocols> <remove name="HttpGet" /> <remove name="HttpPost" /> <add name="AnyHttpSoap" /> </protocols> </webServices> Looking at ContentType for soap+xml only partially solves my problem. For example, Cache-Control: no-cache Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Length: 1131 Content-Type: text/xml Accept: */* Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Language: ro Host: localhost mymethod: urn:[URL]
Some clients instead of having the standard header SOAPAction: [URL], have someting like in example above. "mymethod" represents the method in my web service class with [WebMethod] attribute on it and [URL] is the namespace of the webservice. Still the service works perfectly normal. The consumers use different frameworks (NuSOAP from PHP, .NET, Java, etc).
I develop an asmx web service (i.e. ASP.NET 2.0). There's a piece of code that may read the contents of the HTTP request (via HttpContext.Current.Request.InputStream) while processing it. I realise that InputStream may only be read once for a request, and I make sure I never try to read it more than once.
The problem seems to be that if InputStream happens to be read during the early stages of the application's lifecycle (e.g. after pskill w3wp, during Application_Start), the HTTP request fails with a HTTP 400 - Bad Request error, with no explanation given, no exception thrown and no entry in the httperr log. If it is read later (e.g. within the web method itself), requests run fine whether InputStream is read or not. Application_Start runs fine if InputStream isn't read.
Is this some sort of ASP.NET bug? IIS bug? Or am I doing something wrong by daring to read InputStream? And if so, is there another way to get a look at the "raw" contents of the request without disturbing the inner workings of IIS/ASP.NET? In short, adding this code within Application_Start is enough to reproduce this error: using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(HttpContext.Current.Request.InputStream))reader.ReadToEnd();
I am trying to use curl to access 3rd party webservice, I used the following code which works well if I try it on my own linux server, the data is being sent ok, but the IIS on the 3rd party server returns an error.
$longdata is a long string of data, maybe over 1000 characters long the 3rd party has many working clients with various implementations so the problem is on my side. what do I need to add to the request in order to get this through ?
