Does anyone out there use ComponentOne's C1Menu and create a menu with subitems at runtime? I have went through their forums and help and anything at runtime is done with C1WebMenu which was replaced with this version.I need to create the whole menu with subitems. Can you show code for this if you have?

View 1 RepliesI need to create 2 cascading dropdown menus for a website. I am really new to ASP so don't understand a lot of it yet.. now is that the website pulls the list items from a SQL database and I don't want to use this method. I need to use either JavaScript or just hard code the items. Here are the directions for what I need to do:

I have an ASP.Net 3.5 application with a menu. The menu is set to an xmlDataSource. The xmlDataSource is given the menus for the user as a dataset. The xmlDataSource uses an xsl transform file.Here is the code behind:

My problem is, when another user logs into the system, he/she gets the previous user's menus. This is based on time somehow, because if you wait long enough after another user has left a page, you'll get the proper menus.Could it have something to do with page caching? Is there something I'm missing with menus?
I want to create dynamic link buttons in the asp.net code based on who logged in. For e.g. if the salespesron logged in , he should see "Customer List" and "Item Search" as menu options.
If customer logged in , it should be able to see "Customer Details" and "Item Search" as menu options.
I'm not sure how to create this dynamically in html code.
I try to serach and found the code below on this forum but it doesn't appears to create any dynamic button menu.

Ok, everyone knows that the z-index is messed up in IE8 and that requires patches or workarounds...
What I can't seem to find a solution to is the white background on the DynamicMenu parts of a Menu control. Setting the background color to transparent or not setting it all doesn't seem to have any effect. This is only a problem in IE8, Firefox 3.6.8 renders the dynamic menus without the white background.

I m developing a Web Based Inventory System Using ASP.NET which have a menu containing 16 options overall. I have created a menu using <ul> <li> tags. When I open my project in browser, it shows all the 16 options even i logged in with Administrator or Purchaser or Seller or Accountant etc.
I have a form to assign the Form Access Rights to every user. For example Administrator can use all the options but Seller can use only 3 options (Sales / Sales Return / Today's Sale Report). Purchaser can use 3 options (Purchase / Purchase Returns / Today's Purchase Report) Accountant can use 2 options (Payment / Receipts) etc.How can i show the menus to the users according to the rights assigned.
I'm currently writing a web app in ASP.NET MVC 1.0 (although I do have MVC 2.0 installed on my PC, so I'm not exactly restricted to 1.0) -- I've started with the standard MVC project which has your basic "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC" and shows both the [Home] tab and [About] tab in the upper-right corner. Pretty standard, right? I've added 4 new Controller classes, let's call them "Astronomer", "Biologist", "Chemist", and "Physicist". Attached to each new controller class is the [Authorize] attribute. For example, for the BiologistController.cs
[Authorize(Roles = "Biologist,Admin")]
public class BiologistController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index() { return View(); }
}
These [Authorize] tags naturally limit which user can access different controllers depending on Roles, but I want to dynamically build a Menu at the top of my website in the Site.Master Page based on the Roles the user is a part of. So for example, if "JoeUser" was a member of Roles "Astronomer" and "Physicist", the navigation menu would say:
[Home] [Astronomer] [Physicist]
[About]
And naturally, it would not list links to "Biologist" or "Chemist" controller Index page. Or if "JohnAdmin" was a member of Role "Admin", links to all 4 controllers would show up in the navigation bar. Ok, you prolly get the idea... Now for the real question... Starting with the answer from this StackOverflow topic about Dynamic Menu building in ASP.NET, I'm trying to understand how I would fully implement this. (I'm a newbie and need a little more guidance, so please bare with me.) The answer proposes Extending the Controller class (call it "ExtController") and then have each new WhateverController inherit from ExtController.
My conclusion is that I would need to use Reflection in this ExtController Constructor to determine which Classes and Methods have [Authorize] attributes attached to them to determine the Roles. Then using a Static Dictionary, store the Roles and Controllers/Methods in key-value pairs. I imagine it something like this:
public class ExtController : Controller
{
protected static Dictionary<Type,List<string>> ControllerRolesDictionary;
protected override void OnActionExecuted(ActionExecutedContext filterContext)
{
// build list of menu items based on user's permissions, and add it to ViewData
IEnumerable<MenuItem> menu = BuildMenu();
ViewData["Menu"] = menu;
}
private IEnumerable<MenuItem> BuildMenu()
{
// Code to build a menu
SomeRoleProvider rp = new SomeRoleProvider();
foreach (var role in rp.GetRolesForUser(HttpContext.User.Identity.Name))
{
}
}
public ExtController()
{
// Use this.GetType() to determine if this Controller is already in the Dictionary
if (!ControllerRolesDictionary.ContainsKey(this.GetType()))
{
// If not, use Reflection to add List of Roles to Dictionary
// associating with Controller
}
}
}
Is this doable? If so, how do I perform Reflection in the ExtController constructor to discover the [Authorize] attribute and related Roles (if any) ALSO! Feel free to go out-of-scope on this question and suggest an alternate way of solving this "Dynamic Site.Master Menu based on Roles" problem. I'm the first to admit that this may not be the best approach.

View 1 RepliesWe have a requirement of creating an input page which might be different for different users, changing will be in terms of number and type of fields. How should I architect this page. Should i create page using "XML and XSLT" or "XML and database fields" or is there any more flexible way to create this type of page. I couldn't visualise the flow in which this should be implemented.
View 2 RepliesI've developed a component which processes online payments. At a specific point the user must be redirected to the selected acquirer web site for authentication. The acquirer itself suggests that there should be a web page which does it. Something such as the following,
<!--TakeOff.aspx-->
<html xmlns="[URL]">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
<title>@</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function Go() {
form1.submit();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="Go();">
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="post" action="/...">
<div>
<asp:HiddenField ID="MID" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="Amount" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="ResNum" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="RedirectURL" runat="server" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
This page redirects the user and posts required arguments to the acquirer's web site. Prior to this page there is another page with a payment button (for example). In the click event of the payment button my component is instantiated and required calculation is done. Something such as the following,
protected void btnPayment_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
var paymentProcessor = new NS.PaymentProcessor(/*required arguments*/);
/*...*/
NS.Result result = paymentProcessor.Calc();
Session.Add("PaymentProcessResult", result);
Response.Redirect("TakeOff.aspx");
}
catch (Exception p)
{
throw p;
}
}
What I'm going to do is to generate [TakeOff.aspx] page at run-time by the payment processor component instead of having static page (I mean aspx pages that are generated during development phase). The reason why is that we may have different acquirers and each acquirer requires its own arguments to be posted. So if the payment processor component generates aspx or even html pages at run-time we do not need recompile and redeploy the web application.
My problem is that I do not know how to generate aspx pages at run-time. I'm not an ASP.NET guru and all efforts that I've made using HttpResponse were in vain as the original page does not transfer the control to the generated page.

View 1 RepliesSo I have a page that is rendering data from an MSSQL instance into an HTML table. The last cell has a button to download an uploaded file from the database which is created manually during the table creation so I can enter the recordid as a parameter of the button.
The upload and download functions work perfectly fine. The problem is that I cannot get my dynamically created button to work . All it does is post back but I never get the actual file to send from the server. (Although I verified it works through other means). Any suggestions would be great, I've litterally spent all day on this. below are a few code snippets of the different methods i've tried.

I've created some dynamic buttons on page load but the buttons need to have an onserverclick event and pass a value. I used buttons because they can pass a value. My code below so far, just outputs onserverlick to the html page, which is obviously not what I want. Would it be possible to use some other method, I originally used hyperlinks until I needed to pass a value (I didn't want to use querystrings).
