How to use themesin my website so that user can select whatever he likes.
View 1 RepliesI am doing a community website. Assume that I am giving an option to all my users to choose a theme. That we happen see on websites like Orkut , Gmail etc..Actually we can keep only one theme inside the web config right ?. During dynamic change all the other user's themes will also change. How to avoid this?
View 1 RepliesI find myself needing to preform the same actions on both HtmlControls and WebControls. I am a firm believer in DRY and find the fact that there is only the Control class to use if I want to consolidate the functions on both types. The problem that I have with using Control is that there certain properties that both HtmlControl and WebControl expose that Control does not. In the current case, the Attributes property is the problem. how to avoid the duplication of code in this type of instance?
View 2 RepliesI have some HtmlSelect (a'la asp.net's DropDownList) with ID's like Select1, Select2, ..., Select13. I create the static List of items:
for (int i = 0; i < tab.Length; i++)
_listItems[i] = (new ListItem { Text = tab[0, i], Value = tab[1, i], Selected=false });
then I assign that list for each HtmlSelect control & assign a new SelectedIndex property:
var HtmlSelectControl = ((HtmlSelect)this.FindControl(String.Format("Select{0}", controlNumber)));
HtmlSelectControl.Items.AddRange(_listItems);
HtmlSelectControl.SelectedIndex = controlNumber - 1;
The problem is, when I set the SelectedIndex property of the Select2 control (e.g. =1), the Select1 control has the same SelectedIndex property (which has that index =0). Why ?
I got an eeror in
File.Delete(UploadedLocation);
'System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile. does not contrail definition for delete and no extension method delete accepting a first arument of type System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlInputFile.

Change themes in asp.net 2.0
View 3 RepliesI think i understand the benefit of using themes but I want to be sure I understand correctly. I have previously used css to style my pages. I'm thinking about using themes in my next project. It provides a way to switch between the visual style of web controls and html elements. This could be done by allowing the user to choose a theme that is to their liking.

View 1 RepliesI have been working on a fun little project just to build my skills as an ASP.Net developer. I have learned quite a bit thus far, and don't normally post questions in forums. Google and the books I own generally do the trick for me. But for this question I would like some community input.
I am developing a simple blog platform in ASP.Net / C#. Eventually I hope it will basically be a clone of how Wordpress works. Again, this is mostly a learning project for myself and I realize there are many projects out there doing what I am doing in .Net.
Anyways, the question I want some input on is whether I should use themes or master pages to customize the look and feel of the site. As I understand it, a theme mostly just changes colors and such, but CAN do much more. Whereas a master page can easily change the look and feel of an entire site.
What are the pro's and con's of either route, and what would y'all recommend? I'm not really looking for code examples here, just input on what y'all would think is the best route to pursue.
I have new task..
I'm work with asp.net to make website..
how to make dynamic theme in CSS?
What i have is a number of themes in a solution under the App_Themes directory. How can i read all these and bind them to a list so that when the user selects on it applies that theme to the web page ?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to apply themes to my site using profiles. So in my web.config file I need to write the code so that once that user logs in, then the theme of the site changes. Right now I just have color themes; yellow, blue, and orange.
If this isn't in the right section feel free to move it.
I am an ASP.Net developer, and I use the data controls quite frequently. One of the things that Microsoft, unfortunately, hasn't spent much time on, are the themes. (i.e. "Professional, Colorful, etc...) No offense to the designers that came up with them, but I don't use them because they're not all that pleasant to look at. I've been designing my own "App_Themes".
Is there a gallery of themes that you can download or buy to plug into ASP.Net controls. It would be really cool if someone has figured out how to add themes to the "tasks", where all the stock themes are. I also use Developer Express, so I'm aware that there are control libraries out there, and have used them, I just haven't seen themes that were designed specifically for use with ASP.Net controls in a manner that made them seamless with the "out of the box" themes.
Does anyone know how to either add your own theme to the collection of themes ASP comes with, or is there a good set of themes for purchase or free? Links would be much appreciated. Just to clarify, I'm not talking about control libraries, just ASP.Net themes.
I would like to know how can I change the themes and skins or (CSS) dynamically and what are the basic requirements for it. Is there any design structure must be same..? Following are my requirements. E.g. we have 3 themes. Theme1, Theme2 and Theme3. Designations are. Employee, Manager and Sen.Manager And I want to assign Theme1 to Employee and Theme2 to Manager and Theme3 to Sen.Manager. After Employee gets promoted to Manager the Theme2 must be assign to him. And when they login there Theme and skin must be change according to his designation. Hope you can understand.
View 5 RepliesI was trying to add a Theme and some UserControls to a existing ASP.NET Web Project (nopCommerce) via a Second Web Project (which is added as an virtual Directory). But this did not work in my Configuration and I did not know if this is even possible.
The Reason why I want to seperate my Code from the nopCommerce project is for easyer upgrading to a new Version, and to handle adaptations for different shops efficient.
to a vb code resource/tutorial that explains how you can change a theme from a dropdown list on a content page derived from a nested master page, not the main master page.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple ASP.NET web site with membership (using SqlMemberShipProvider). I allow users to select a theme to setup a design of the pages they like.
Now the question is: Where shall I store this selected theme per user?
My initial idea was to use profiles. So I have defined a profile property called "Theme" in the web.config file. All this works so far as long as the user has logged in to the web site.
But there remains one open point:If the user isn't logged in and enters the login page how can I make sure that he sees the login page with the theme he has selected before?
Obviously (at least I think it's obvious) I cannot pull the theme of the login page from the profile of that user as long as he hasn't logged in.
So how can I overcome this issue? Is it perhaps the wrong place to store the theme in the user profile table? Should it be better stored somewhere on the client PC of the user?
We have a nested master page which we have made it as a seperate class library.(Becoz many projects use the same master page) Initially we had all our css files,skin files, images inside the Master page project itself. But now we wanted the themes to be global and moved it out to wwwroot as mentioned in the below link.
http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStartv20/aspnet/doc/themes/themes.aspx#global
The Masterpage has user controls out of which one user control has the telerik menu. The css is not getting set for that particular user control. We use relative path for setting the style sheet link. But it is not getting set. Its still referring to the old path. But all the skin files, images are pointing to the new global location. Except for the telerik menu rest all is aligned according to the style sheet.
When i do view source, the link to style sheet is pointing to the old location. I dunno why this happening. Is this a telerik issue or i am going wrong somewhere.
In my project, I have two themes applied to suite the two customers based on their username.
My structure is like these:
Theme1: -> xyz.css, xyz_blue.css, xyz_green.css, xyz_red.css
Theme2: -> xyz.css, xyz_blue.css, xyz_green.css, xyz_red.css
If I apply Theme1 or Theme2 to my project, since the common style definition names in the css files are same, it's not applying properly.
For kind information, before I start applying Themes, I was using "Link" to link the css file at run-time by enabling it using the "ID" property like
<link href="..." id="xyz"/>
It was working fine. AFter applying themes, it got confused like what css files to be loaded and what style definitions to be run as it is duplicated or a-needy-one for my approach in project.
I have a master page and I need to give user a option of selecting color like red , blue or green. Once it selected the Background color of an image should be changed from transparent to selected color. How to do it?
View 1 RepliesI have a master page which contains a treeview and a linkbutton. i have used 3 different stylesheets for the same page and those are listed in dropdownlist on the same master page. on dropdownlist change() event stylesheet of the master page change, i have 1 default style sheet which will come as master page loads.
now the problem is when i changed stylesheet from dropdown list, stylesheet changes the master page , but after that when if i clicked on treeview or linkbutton the stylesheet is restored to default one.
i have written following code
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
