Executing Server side code using Javascript. Here is the solution.In the Asp.net forums, I often see the question asked, "Can I call server-side code from the client/JavaScript?" Almost invariably, the responses given are "No, the client cannot access the server," or "You can only use WebMethods or PageMethods." The first response is not entirely correct, and unfortunately, WebMethods and PageMethods are static methods and therefore have no way to directly access the page.This is why I present to you the following "hack". I call it a hack because there really should be some way built into the ASP.NET AJAX Extensions that allow this approach directly. Instead, it relies on using controls in a manner that they aren't necessarily intended in order to obtain the desired result. But this "hack" does have a redeeming quality—it's incredibly easy.The Code:

I have a button where I use an Animation Extender. When I click the button I have to set OnClientClick="return false;" otherwise the Animation Extender closes. So that causes my problem. How do I execute server side code from this button? I have tried this code in my code behind, but there is an error:
Code: Dim strScript As String strScript = "<script>" strScript = strScript & "return false;" strScript = strScript & "</script>" ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(Me, GetType(Page), "MyScript", strScript, False) This is my code for the Animation Extender: Open data"></asp:Button>
I have a user control with a dozen radion buttons in it.Every pair of radio buttons execute a Sub on server side.All of the radio buttons have the autopostback set to true.There is a public Sub of the usercontrol that gets called only once by the page and loads the data setting the radio buttons to checked or not checked.The problem is, that once a radio button is set, it will execute it's server side code on every postback even if the postback is caused by another control on the usercontrol or even another control on the page. So if all the radiobutton pairs are set and a postback is caused, there will be six server side Sub executing! Casting the sender in each of those Subs gives back the radiobutton that is checked at that point, so it's if on every postback the event is fired for each checked radiobutton.
On click of "ValidateUser" button, I do check whether user is valid or not. Based on some condition I do need hide "AuthenticateUser" div tag and show "ForceToChangePassword" div tag. I really like the jQuery fadeIn/fadeOut effect. I can easily do that on client side. But how can I give that effect after executing server side code?
I tried to call javascript method from code behind that method has a fadeIn/fadeOut logic but it seems like that javaScript method is never been called.
Was trying to reference this the other day, and I've heard them called several things.They are intrinsically hard to google for. Does this syntax have a proper name?
How can I trigger a jQuery function with the Gridview Select button? I want that the select button trigger the jquery function that has the row details (it's already working with a asp:buttonfield ), and select the row so i can get the values and send it trough e-mail with another button. I don't know if this is possible. or, Can I trigger the jQuery function from code behind with the select button Sub? How?
[Code]....
This function capture the gridview cell values that are hidden and show them in a div outside the gridview (it works as row details). I have no problem with this.
[Code]....
All i need is a button that select the row index and/or values and trigger the jquery function . Or I can execute the jQuery function from server side. I don't know if it's posible.
Here is what I need to do: I need to execute some server side code after a user clicks on a button, THEN I need to execute some client side code. OnClientClick gets invoked BEFORE the onClick; and what I need is the opposite.
Is there a way to do this? It looks like I will have to execute JS code from the server code.
i am not sure if my design have flaw but would like to know what others have to say, i am in a situation where i am trying to acheive two things in one click.
using : asp.net web form
i have a web form with few textbox and a gridview control and a button.
if i click on the button i am executing two things
1) asynchronously get data from server to client (working great) and able to display the data in the textboxes.
2) same click i want to bind the gridview.
[Code]....
recap:
1) jquery script execute asynchronously to get data from server to client and display in the textboxes 2) server side code to bind the gridview.
PROBLEM:
if i have onClientClick="return LoadDataById(); then it executes ONLY ajax code and does not execute server side but if have onClientClick="LoadDataById(); then it executes client and server but textbox value wipeout. (the textbox value popuplate through ajax)
When a user clicks a button I need to create a .bmp file on the server. After the .bmp file is created I will load it into the html page. Would Ajax be the best way to accomplish this?
in my asp.net website, i have textbox control inside datagrid control. I would like to add textchange event in javascript where i need to sum the values inside textboxes in datagrid and show that addition in lable outside grid. I would also like to do same addition in codebehind(*.cs) But codebehind only execute when browser not support javascript. It means when browser support javascript only client side javascript should execute not server side code
In my asp.net website I am creating a session upon user login and I would like to perform some operations in the database just before this session will expire.I am having problem in determining where should I write code and how will I know the session is going to expire.
I am not sure if 'session_end' event of 'Global.asax' suits my requirements as the session I want to check is created manually(not a browser instance).
I am running some custom code in a user control using the <%=Code%> tag. The problem is that the code seems to run before the PreRender event. Is there any way for met to get this code to run after the PreRender event?
I have an asp.net button, that when clicked calls a code behind function. The function does some evaluation, and then I want to call javascript from within this asp.net function.
I'm trying to understand how to execute AJAX animation on an asp button that has to execute code on Postback. In other words, I have button with code behind that needs to be excuted, but at the same time want to be able to have one of animation extenders be applied to it. I understand that I need to use the BeginRequest Event, I'm just not sure how, or which javascript commands to use to call the ajax animation so the postback will still occur.
I'm not sure if this is an easy issue to solve, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a ModalPopupExtender (obviously) for a panel that contains a two labels, two textboxes, and two buttons (Ok and Cancel). What I would like to do is when the Ok button is clicked, the page post back and the server click event execute (along with normal page events). When I try adding "__doPostBack("ModalOk", "");" as the OnOkScript, the page posts back, but the click event doesn't execute. (the click event is Protected Sub ModalOk_Click(blah blah) Handles ModalOk.Click).
The only way I got it to work (which is fine with me, I just thought I'd ask why it isn't working normally) is by checking to see if the Request.Form("__EVENTTARGET") is equal to "ModalOk". If it is, then I call the ModalOk_Click() sub. Like I said, this is fine with me, but it should be able to be avoided. If the __EVENTTARGET is equal to "ModalOk", then the "Handles ModalOk.Click" event should automatically be called, shouldn't it? Following with the general problem here, how does the server determine which events (other than the page events) to execute (or at least which button.click event)? I understand that the __EVENTTARGET supplies what causes the postback, but if a button is clicked then __EVENTTARGET is not set. So then does the page check the Request.Form for a button? Or is it more complex/simple than what I'm asking?
I have a web app that needs to do two things at the same time. After a user clicks a button on the site, a javascript function needs to execute and while thats working I need the server side code for the button click to execute without waiting on the client side to finish.
To be more specific, the client side function takes about 23 seconds to complete, and while that is running the server side code promts the user for printing a document. So I need the javascript to run "in the background".
I know that I can receive an javascript object from the server via ASP.NET AJAX using Json. But I am not sure how can I send an javascript object from my client-side javascript to my server-side code. And if I can, how can I extract this object in my server-side code and access its members?
