I think I know the answer to this, just want to make sure.
Question: there's no way to turn off a timer in ASP.NET on the client side (easily—I've seen the undocumented hacks on the net). Therefore, you have to set up you own logic client side while the timer is running server side, correct?
I went through these examples and understand them:
So, the pseudocode for a trigger done programically—so you do something when somebody clicks a button Button1 would be-- after you set up a ScriptManager, UpdatePanel and suitable ASync PostBack triggers in XAML (as per the above links) so that the Ticks event is triggered in the UpdatePanel:
public partial class MyWebForm : System.Web.UI.Page
{
bool myTriggeringBoolean; //used to turn off and on code in the Timer's Tick event [code]....
VS2010 ( Vb.net ).I have a masterpage that contains a gridview, giving stats and information on client files sent to us. This gridview is updated by means of a timer control every 10 seconds. In my grid I have an image field, to display either a tick .. if everything is ok or a cross for any problems.When the timer control timer event forces a gridview databind every 10 seconds.When the page first loads, i get the default red Cross in the gridview imagefield, however when the timer loops forces a 'databind' I lose the redCross and it is replaced with the default image control ( as if no url is set ) . Then I get a server 404 error.I am using the OnDataBound event to fire my vb sub. I have commented out evertything just to get a solid starting point but im still getting errors.
I'm searching for an example with an client timer that ticks synchronous with an server timer. Also there must be a button on the client side which can reset the server timer to an default value, and with this it also resets the client timer ofcourse. I tried it myself but it seems that there is some postback delay which makes it impossible for me to make it atleast look like it goes synchronous.
I hope somebody got an example for me, the button part is really important because by pressing that button the delay comes.
One thing I really love about web browsers, is the autocomplete feature they have for different controls, like textboxes in forms. However, some times users get confused with the dropdown appearing. So, we would like to be able to disable the autocomplete feature for some textboxes on some of our ASP.NET WebForms pages. Isn't there a property which controls that? Or is that done through JavaScript?
I have an application where I don't want the browser to be able to remember passwords. I can see the AutoCompleteType = disable and that seems to work in IE, but I also need to support FireFox. Setting autocomplete="off" doesn't seem to do anything. Is there anyway for me to kill the autocomplete of a password text box in FireFox?
I'm wondering if it's possible to be able to use an HTML editor (such as TinyMCE) in an ASP.NET form without turning off validation for the entire page. There are other fields in the page that I want to use validation for. Will those not get validated with validation controls if you set ValidateRequest="false" in the page directive?
I have a listview whit "select" button.... i want when i click this button the listview should show a Delete buttonn What is wrong in my code ..i press select button there is noting hapning??
In the repeater, there are a number of dropdownlist controls. Each one is hooked up to an event which triggers when changed. When one instance is changed I would like to disable all other instances of the DDL control.
I'm sort of new to ASP.NET. What i've done here is create a list of Newsletters seperated by University newsletters, and Alpha Newsletters. What I have now been asked to do is make these 2 lists into 1 list. I can't figure a Way to do it without designing the database? Does anyone have any ideas? Take these 2 lists and make 1? Using odsNewsletterAlpha and odsNewsletterUni to create 1 list?
I have bunch of HTML code I am using to make rounded edge boxes on my controls. Is there a way to take this code and turn it into some kind of control or something so I do not have to keep pasting 10 lines of HTML code around everything I do?
One additional thing to note, the number HTML tags used inside the inner most DIV will change depending on where I use it in my site. So in some cases I will only have 1 tag and 1 tag but in other cases I could have 1 tag, 1 tag, 3 tags, and a HTML table. How can I make that work?
Is there a way I can handle HttpRequestValidationException without turning off ValidateInput?
What I really want is all HTML posted from a form to be automatically encoded in the model unless a particular property has the AllowHtml attribute set.
If I have to turn off ValidateInput, then what happens to the rest of my model validation? Will it still be validated or do I need to explicitally check ModelState.IsValid?
I'm also catching the exception in a custom model binder class but every time I try to access the offending property from Request.Form, the exception gets thrown. Is there a way to get that value in the model binder?
I created a little web service to minify JavaScript, and everything was nice, with all my tests passing. Then I noticed a bug: if I tried to minify alert('<script>');, it would throw a HttpRequestValidationException.
So that's easy enough to fix. I'll just add [AllowHtml] to my controller. But what would be a good way to unit test that this doesn't happen in the future?
The following was my first thought:
[TestMethod] public void Minify_DoesntChokeOnHtml() { try { using (var controller = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<MinifyController>()) { return controller.Minify("alert('<script></script>');"); } } catch (HttpRequestValidationException) { Assert.Fail("Request validation prevented HTML from existing inside the JavaScript."); } }
However, this doesn't work since I am just getting a controller instance and running methods on it, instead of firing up the whole ASP.NET pipeline.
What would be a good unit test for this? Maybe reflector on the controller method to see if the [AllowHtml] attribute is present? That seems very structural, and unlikely to survive a refactoring; something functional might make more sense.
I ran into a strange issue with the AJAX MaskedEditExtender control, the extender is used with the Mask="99/99/9999" and MaskType="Date". Initially when the page loads the textbox was set to readonly using textbox.Attributes.Add("readonly", "readonly") in the codebehind. After the page loads if the user clicks on a certain button it would change the textbox to editable using javascript code: textbox.readOnly = false. The strange thing is after that if you start typing in the textbox you can see the entire mask (__/__/____) shifting to the right as you type. For example it looks something like this: 09__/__/____ instead of the normal 09/__/____.
If the textbox was never set to readonly in the first place this behavior won't happen. So it seems something got messed up when changing from readonly to not. I was able to reproduce this in a barebone aspx page with just the textbox, the mask extender, and a button that when clicked turning off the textbox's readonly. Anyone knows how I can fix this?
i have one text box and one button, when i enter 60 in text box,and press buttton,,it will save 60 as a seconds,and this 60 seconds should save in database (( i m using SQL SERVER 2008),when user view quiz page,this 60 second starts count down to zero ..,and when second become 0 ,alert display on page...with some message......and i want this all work in asp .net (visual C#).
I am using .net 3.5 and I make Windows Service Where my windows service is starting properly and stopping also properly. And I put timer control in that in which interval 1000. But the event is not getting raise what can be the problem OnStart I am makingit timer1.enabled=true and Onstop I am making timer1. enabled =false for debugging purpose I am writing Log Entry at beginning of timer_tick event.
i am making one web site(online test),now i want to give some time limit to answer the questions,like 10 min.how can i make a timer with 10 min in .net to show the time in label control..
Here upon loading the page there will be 4 panels having their own timer controls (having interval 1000) for incrementing a variable "a". But the problem is that, as I have used static variable that's why all the timer's are sharing the variable "a" and creating a problem like each panel's label showing a value incremented by 4 after every second. Can any body solve this problem..
