I have a button that does a postback to server then back to client and finally to the action attribute of the form element.When the page post back to the client the onload <script>document.frm.submit()</script> finally submits the form to the action attribute of the form.I would like to eliminate the unnessasay post back to the client.Below is the code the runs on the server.

I have a form action in an ASCX page set to an external URL
<form id="fLoginForm" runat="server" action="http://external.url" method="post" defaultbutton="bSignIn">
Inside there is a standard ASP linkbutton
<asp:LinkButton CssClass="btn" ID="bSignIn" runat="server" Text="Sign In" OnClick="bSignIn_Click" />
The event "bSignin_Click" never gets fired when I have ction="http://external.url" set on the form tag. However when I remove the action, it works as expected. I thought for runat='server' forms, the form would always post back? I need to read the URL from the action attrib and then redirect to it with some hidden input values also in the page.
After deploying a ASP.NET WebForms application to a production server some of the ajax calls has stopped working for me. After some debugging I found out that the following statement (in the internal client-method WebForm_DoCallback) was causing the problem:
xmlRequest.open("POST", action, true);
The problem seemed to be that the action-variable was empty so after checking the rendered html I found out that the form-tag rendered on the production server looks like:
<form method="post" action="" id="Form1">
However, on my developer machine I get the following:
<form method="post" action="default.aspx" id="Form1">
So, why would the action-attibute render on my dev.machine but not on the production server? This seems to be the case only for one specific web form, when I look on other pages the action-attribute renders correctly.
I'm making a urlrewriter component and I need to set the action attribute of the html form tag to the virtual url. This is easy to do in the page that has that tag but I want to do it from within the component. I have a class called UrlRewriterModule which inherits from IHttpModule and in the OnPagePreInit method I run the code:
[Code]....
This actually works... but... this code presumes that I have a page which has a masterpage where the form tag is located.
How can this be done so that it will work with any hierarchy? I want to access the form tag wherever it is located.
I have a web form called default.aspx which has a form with user information. In addition to this, I have an iFrame on the same page that displays a page Secondary-Form.aspx that has a few additional dynamic data fields. I need to do two things.
1. I need to pass the parent form data in real time to the iFrame page to refresh its content and modify it's fields accordingly. Example: If the user submits their Vehicle Choice as Car on parent form, the form item in iFrame will display a radio button that says Honda, and if the user submits their Vehicle Choice as MotorCycle in the parent page, the iFrame will display Harley Davidson as the radio button choice
2. The submit button is on the parent page. I want both pieces of this information (from the parent page, as well as iFrame selection) to be passed to a server side ASPX page to process this information.the default.aspx and Secondary-Form.aspx files are located on different domains.
I am facing challenge of changing action attribute of html form tag. As my application is on shared hosting (medium trust) environment of godaddy server, I cannot use reflection to get control adapter of html tag page. So, I cannot use the following code in my Url Rewriting module.

Is there any otherway to implement the same functionality without reflection?
I have an app I am transitioning to MVC3 to see what the upgrade path is essentially. I've hit a snag. I believe I've run into a change that may be due to the changes for Dependency Injection in action filter attributes, but I have been unable to track down the cause, and the "correct" solution.This project uses StructureMap and NHibernate. The NHibernate session is started at the beginning of each request, and ends at the end of each request, thanks to a small module. This is just to give an idea of the stack involved...o I have a few custom Authorize attributes (Inheriting from AuthorizeAttribute) that perform some more complicated authorization logic for specific actions that they decorate. Part of their functionality involves using two repositories which they must either (a) have injected, or (b) get from the StructureMap ObjectFactory themselves. In MVC2 I was using option b, so that the CONSTRUCTOR of the attribute looked like this:
[Code]....
This worked fine, as in MVC2 the constructor was called each time the attribute was evaluated. This BREAKS in MVC3, where it would appear that this is no longer the case. Due to this apparent change, the FIRST time this attribute is evaluated, it runs fine, but each subsequent time, any calls in the repositories fails because it claims the NHibernate Session object hasn't been started! The reason being, as far as I can tell, that the CustomAuthorizeAttribute is created once, and then held in whatever state it exists in at that point for the lifetime of the application... Which means that the dependencies inside of it (Which SHOULD go out of scope at the end of each request, and be reinstantiated / fetched at the beginning of subsequent requests), are instead persisting with it becoming stale after the first evaluation.After banging my head against the desk for a few hours, I realized that simply moving these calls to the ObjectFactory into the AutorizeCore method made everything work again.Now, all of this was of course, a hack, because there wasn't a good easy to do real dependency injection into attributes in MVC2. I hear that is changed in MVC3, and I am wondering if this behavior is in response this change, and if so, what do I need to do to make this work?
I Have added a form to the master page, but when the page is rendered the name attribute is outputted; this attribute has now been depreciated.
Is there a way to override this form to remove the attribute when using the master page?

I have some code which is rendering some custom attributes of Hidden Control (without runat=server).
Something like,
<input type='hidden' id = 'hdn1221' name = 'hdn1221' OldValue = '12' OldMode = 'A' />
And I have a lot of these hidden elements on my form.
When I submit the form, I am looping through a set of ids, say 1200 to 1250, so I will read controls based on that, and also hidden with Request.Form["hdn<Id> "]
Now problem is, as we know we get value attribute from form when we do Request.Form["id"] for hidden, I want to read my custom attributes from hidden element. Is there any way? Note that, I can not touch the rendering part here.

I am upgrading my website to a mvc website. I have following urls in my blog section ;
http://www.example.com/Articles/GetArticle.aspx?Article=40&Link=unwto-torism-highlights-2010-edition-facts-and-figures-global-tourism-2010-free-download-pdf-highlights
as you see article query string will have the id of the article. in my new mvc app, I wiil display my blogs on www.example.com/40
here, 40 is the id of the article.t the search engines have my current url and if I upgrade my app to mvc app, the links will be broken. so what is the best way of mapping those url in an mvc app.

View 3 RepliesI have a URL /products/search where Products is the controller and Search is the action. This url contains a search form whose action attribute is (and should always be) /products/search eg;
<%using( Html.BeginForm( "search", "products", FormMethod.Post))
This works ok until I introduce paging in the search results. For example if I search for "t" I get a paged list. So on page 2 my url looks like this :
/products/search/t/2
It shows page 2 of the result set for the search "t". The problem is that the form action is now also /products/search/t/2. I want the form to always post to /products/search.
My routes are :routes.MapRoute( "Products search",
"products/search/{query}/{page}",
new { controller = "Products", action = "Search", query = "", page = 1 });
routes.MapRoute( "Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" });
How can I force Html.BeginForm(), or more specifically Url.Action( "Search", "Products"), to ignore the /query/page in the url?
I have an odd problem. I have a page called search.aspx. When the search button is clicked, the user is supposed to be redirected to another website. The redirection code is in one of the postback events.
Here is the form code:
<form id="form1" runat="server" onsubmit="return CheckSearchBox();" action="http://mysearch.company.com/default.aspx" method="post" target="_top" >
I have this same code deployed in two environments. Working Environment It has .NET 2.0 and 3.0, but no service packs. Here is how the source is rendered:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="search.aspx" id="form1" onsubmit="return CheckSearchBox();" target="_top">
Broken Environment
It has .NET 2.0 sp2 and 3.0 sp1.
This is how the same code is rendered:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="http://mysearch.company.com/default.aspx" id="form1" onsubmit="return CheckSearchBox();" target="_top">
Notice that the rendered "action" is different. So, I have a few questions.
Why would ASP.NET change the action in one situation, but not the other?
Why would ASP.NET change the action at all?
Is there some sort of configuration I can make so that it always changes the action to "search.aspx"? (We haven't changed this code in years, and nobody wants to touch it.)
public class BandProfileModel
{
public BandModel Band { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<Relationship> Requests { get; set; }
}
and the following form:
<% using (Html.BeginForm()) { %>
<%: Html.EditorFor(m => m.Band) %>
<input type="submit" value="Save Band" />
<% } %>
which posts to the following action:
public ActionResult EditPost(BandProfileModel m, string band)
{
// stuff is done here, but m is null?
return View(m);
}
Basically, I only have one property on my model that is used in the form. The other property in BandProfleModel is just used in the UI for other data. I'm trying to update just the Band property, but for each post, the argument "m" is always null (specifically, the .Band property is null). It's posting just fine to the action, so it isn't a problem with my route. Just the data is null.
The ID and name attributes of the fields are BAND_whatever and Band.whatever (whatever being a property of Band), so it seems like it would work. What am I doing wrong? How can I use just one property as part of a form, post back, and have values populated via the model binder for my BandProfileModel property in the action?
