Web Forms :: Post Data To External Page And Set Session Variables
Aug 17, 2010
I have an app which has a form that used to use AutoPostBack rigged controls (dropdowns, radiobuttons etc.) in an updatepanel, and I used to set session values on each postback. I posted the form using PostBackUrl to an external page, using a bit of javascript OnClientClick to copy my data into meaningfully named hidden fields.
Now, I've had to rewrite the AutoPostBack-ing controls so that all the cascading dropdown work and date calculation etc. is done in JavaScript, and not in C# - no more postbacks, no more updatepanel.
This means I've lost the ability to set my session values on postback. Can anyone think of a solution for setting these before I post my form? I need to set the session variables, plus post (querystrings are not an option) to the external page with the values from my form - and actually send the user to the external page, too.

I'm migrating an old ColdFusion site to ASP.NET. One of the pages has a form that posts to an external URL.
[Code]....
I just discovered that you can't do this in an .aspx page. Seems the page will just post to itself if you hit the submit button.What's the proper technique for achieving this in ASP.NET? There are a couple of hidden fields that pass parameters to the external URL.

I'm using an ASP.NET Facebook Developers Toolkit (http://www.codeplex.com/FacebookToolkit) on an external website, and I'm also the admin of a facebook fan page for the website. Users on my website (may or may not be facebook users) create content articles.
I would like to hook up these articles to the Facebook fan page, so that, when they write the article, then ones with FB accounts can sign into FB and post on the Fan page. I'm sure they would need to be a fan first.

I need to send some parameters to an external website using the <asp:HiddenField /> controls and also at the same time, submit data to a sql server database. The part for submitting the data to the database is working, but I need to try to get the parameters from the hiddenfields to also be passed through. I thought all I had to do is create the hidden fields and in the code behind, set the values from the textboxes that the user would fill out.
My source code is below:

What am I missing? The hidden fields are losing their value before posting to the external website. I've looked everywhere to see why this won't work.

I am developing an application using Visual Studio 2010 and SQLServer 2008. My application has two pages and the first page contains a GridView with all the records "User Administration" and when user click on any Username (template field ->linkbutton) I read the USERID like this.
Session["UserID"] = e.commandArgument;
Response.Redirect("UserOperations.aspx");
which takes it to the Data Entry page where user updates the information and save the data.
The problem i am facing is that when I hit the browser REFRESH button couple of times the session variables looses the value which is trouble for me as I am using Session Variables for different purposes.

I have a web application that contains a MasterPage and a Web.sitemap file for the navigation. I am loading the navigation into an <asp:Repeater> control and I associating it with <asp:LinkButton>; something like this:
[Code]....
I have two issues:
Setting Session Variables: I'd like to set some session variables when any menu item is clicked.Dynamic Url: Once the Session variables are set, I'd like to set the url dynamically after the Session variable is set The thing is, I'd like to use the same aspx file for two different menu items, and I'd also like to set some session variables at the time of menu selection. I am aware that I cannot use the same url when I define the url in the web.sitemap file.

I'm trying to convert a game I made (WindowsFormApplication) to an ASP.NET page.
My Problem is that I have a lot "private" variables in my WindowFormApplication and those variables are important for the game. But when after I Declare all my variables (in my Page_Load), they turn null no matter what I do(click a button, refresh the page).
Is there anyway to save my variables between buttons (other than Session, because I'd have to create like 6 more sessions)

I am using C#.
I am having below code in C#:
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (Session["boolSignOn"].ToString() == "true".ToString())
{
lblPanelOpen.Text = Session["panelOpen"].ToString();
}
else
{
lblPanelOpen.Text = Session["panelOpen"].ToString();
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Error("Error processing request:" + ex.Message);
}
}
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Session["panelOpen"].ToString()))
{
lblPanelOpen.Text = string.Empty;
Session.Remove("panelOpen");
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.Error("Unable to remove the session variable:" + ex.Message);
}
}
In above code I am having a Session["panelOpen"] variable which is created from another user control and once my page is trying to render, I am storing Session["panelOpen"] in my hidden lblPanelOpen.Text on page OnInit() method, however when page is loaded completely then I am trying to remove the session variable.

I'm using the beta version of Visual Studio 2010. I'm running my ASP.NET 4.0 website through the debugger. Whenever there is a page load (e.g. clicking on a link, a postback) the session is ended and a new session is created. This wipes out all the session variables and makes debugging impossible. How to get session variables to persist across page loads?
Is this problem unique to running ASP.NET in a test environment or unique to the beta 2 version of VS 2010?

If I have a 2 control load events and one page load event subs and the control1_Load events fires first, can I lookup some database things and persist them? I would like to use the persisted data in the other two events when they fire. Normally I've been using session variables , is there a better way?

I'm trying to set session variables in one page, and retrieve them in my code file in the page that it posts to.
I keep getting this error. I put the correct namespaces in, and enabledSessionState = true to my application files, but no luck.
Session state can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true, either in a configuration file or in the Page directive. make sure that System.Web.SessionStateModule or a custom session state module is included in the <configuration><system.web><httpModules> section in the application configuration.
I'm just calling a session variable, and I get that error
e.g,
Public AUID As Integer = Convert.ToInt16(Session("AUID"))

I have an webforms app that loses it's session variables on response.redirect. I've read Bertrand Le Roy's blog about this and still can't get it to work. The page works in production. However, when I try in the VS2k8 IDE, the session variables are there right before response.redirect and on the first line of the next page, the variables are nothing. I've confirmed the session id is the same so I'm not skipping sessions. The target page is relative so the web server doesn't think we're changing sites (as confirmed by the sessionid).
Response.Redirect("menu.aspx", False)

with a problem im having or at least give me an idea about which direction i should be going in.I have an asax file - with the following void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)in that I am storing a session which holds a boolean.This boolean holds a flag which when set to true tells the application to go to the database and retrieve data, if its set to false, it checks the information in memory.I am using master pages and inside my master page i have and ascx files - which holds my navigation items(I build the navigation menu based on certain criteria)on a content page (a page that uses the master page) I perform a function when a button is clicked and I set the session flag to truethe problem is that the flag is not being checked until i refresh the page twice and therefore the menu is not updating until the user clicks to another page.my suspicion is that it is because of the page life cycle (the event handlers are done AFTER page load) - is there anyway around this?Is there any web page links you have got that I cant google? (yes i have googled but to little luck - maybe im using the wrong search term).on an additional note im trying to avoid like the plague - storing anything in the viewstate

I have a form where users can upload Pdf files(about 30 pages to one document or so). I want to delay storing these Pdfs in the database until the user submits the entire form. The problem is that the collection of files uploaded must be able to persist through postbacks. That being said, I am considering storing these as session variables, however, would this be too much data to store, or are session variables meant to store a couple strings here and there? If this method is not acceptable, is there an alternate method?

I use some session variables to get the job done(shopping cart, etc) but it is not stable..manytimes I get no items in session object and other times(refreshing the page) I get missing data...I downloaded the entire site code to my local pc and debugged it and run it succesfully without any session data missing...When I run it in the server, I get bad session again: no products in shopping cart or products with missing quantities...
The same website runs smoothly in our production server too....The problem is with our development server...

I have some code in my page load event where I just want to fire once when the user opens the Browser. The only issue is if you open a new tab with the same website the session variable does not reset. Is there a way to reset the session variable when you open a new tab or do you have to take the whole web browser down for it to clear the session variable.

I'm currently developing a website using ASP.NET MVC.I need this website to communicate with an external API using HTTP Post.
I'm unsure whether I should be coding this up in ASP.NET to perform the http post requet and read the response, or whether I should be coding this up in a c# class.It seems when developing a site, you have the option to chose either for many scenarios.

I'm trying to customize correct displaying of dropdownlists so information shown in comboboxes is relevant to the kind of user logged on (maintaining referential integrity at data level)
e.g.: I have a user already logged on and depending on his profile I'd like to display to this user only the portion of the database that he would be allowed to see. That would mean that he might have acces to an specific subset of data, e.g.: businesstype = "3", loging level = "2", etc.
Is there a way of creating an Ado.Net Entity Data Model filtered on a Session variables as to maintain proper referential integrity at data level?

There are reams of info out there about things causing InProc session to drop session objects, but that's not what's happening here. We're missing individual variables within stable InProc session objects, and are not sure whether they're not being written or being lost after a successful write. I've confirmed with WinDBG that the sessions are live and contain some, but not all, of the data written to them.
Guid g = System.Guid.NewGuid();
this.Context.Session.Add(g.ToString(), result.ImageData);
output.Write("<img src="display.aspx?id=" + g.ToString() + "">");
This code is pretty straightforward, and it works flawlessly in Test. In Production, under heavy load, though, it fails ~1% of the time. If Mr Smith visits the site and attempts to display 4 pieces of image data, 2 of them might be saved in his session and two of them be lost. The InProc session object for Mr. Smith exists. The traffic logs show he clicked 4 times, each with a different id param. But there are only 2 guids in his InProc session object, instead of 4. The 2 session objects we did capture do correspond to 2 of the id's shown in the traffic log (his 1st and 3rd clicks.) The traffic logs for his 2nd and 4th clicks, though, show a guid id that's not in his InProc session object.
Lines 1&3 of the above code obviously worked for those 2nd and 4th clicks, or he'd not have had the id in the URI for him to click. Line 2, however seems to have failed silently in some way. If any exception had been thrown, I'd expect we'd not ever have arrived at line 3. I can't see any way for the user to receive the guid id, but the session to fail to have it. The other possibility is line 2 worked successfully, but the variable later disappeared, how I cannot even imagine.

We're running a web farm, but users constantly return to the same server. I'm researching now whether there's any way users might be slipping off to the other server.
