Web Forms :: Programmatically Implement A Facebook Style Page Access?
Apr 21, 2010
I have an asp.net app that allows users to create personal pages which can be publicly accessed thru a "directory" page. The content of the pages is stored in sql server, so a given user's page is dynamically created thru the code that executes when the relevant link on the directory page is clicked.
I would like to take this a step further by allowing access to a given user's page directly thru the browser's address bar, something like www.thegreatestsite.com/jim (pretty much like You Tube, Facebook, etc.).
I could achieve this by manually creating a folder under the root, called "jim" and putting a default.aspx page in it which would have code in it's load event that would dynamically create jim's page.
However, I would like this "additional feature" to be created automatically, as part of the sign up process of the user.
I would like to programmatically access a div in a style sheet for my master page and change its height value depending on the content page loaded.
Can this be done using Javascript in the Master page or in the code behind for the respective page? What I would like is something such as this if possible
When this content page loads, change the height value of this div in the css file
I don't want to use separate Master pages as this seems to defeat the whole purpose of the Master page
I see that only name,group,email address we can access at facebook send button. How can i send to my facebook page wall (where i am admin) by clicking facebook send button. It's by default don't show it.
I have to create facebook style wall in my project. So far I assume that I will get X(the number that needs to be shown be default) number of wall posts from database, bind them to some control like Repeater and add update panel in each row in repeater so that only the portion of page only related to that post is updated once any new comment is added in that post.
Now, since I am new to AJAX so cant figure out how to display the "older post" link functionality there. As we have link at the bottom of facebook wall which once clicked appends the certain number of older posts at the end of the wall.
Similarly, once a new post is added by someone, it gets added at the top of the wall, how can I acheive that so tha only the limited portion at the top of the wall gets refersed and updated instead of whole page post back.
I have a page that have 5 to 10 photos of a person, If some user comes into this page he should see facebook "Like" button next to each photo on that page.
I have installed Javascript SDk on my site, I can use XFBML also. Just post me some sample code if you have any?
i have managed to develop a status wall some what similar to facebook, using Repeater Controls- Parent Repeater is bound to the status and the child repeater is bound to the comments inside that status. I am strugling to implement the following solution- hiding and displaying a btnDeleteComments - depending of the owner of the comment- i.e. only owner of the wall and those who leave the comment can only delete that comment.
Status X Comment A - left by member John Comment B - Left by Member Doe Comment C - Left by Member Harry
The owner of the wall can delete all comments, and only John can delete comment A, Doe can delete comment B and so on Here is what i have tried so far
1. fill a data set with two tables and relate them (table one = status, Table 2 = comments of that status) 2. data bind the repeater to this data set 3. here is the HTML of the child repeater
The higlighted bit is causing the cast invalid error- i thought this would do the trick, by deafult all the delete buttons next to each comment is hidden for members other then the owner of the wall- and only if they are the one who left the comment will teh delete button be visible-
The SQL which retreives the comments for a specific status, also retrieves a column2 ViewersComment which is either 'true' of 'false', indicating wether that comment was left by this person viewing the status wall-
This was originally posted, in error, to another forum. Not sure how that happened. Anyways, here goes... I have a web app that uses javascript functions to make rounded corners. One of the functions requires two colors as parameters. I cannot change this function definition. My web app is in asp.net 4.0 and uses master pages and themes. To facilitate programmatic access, I moved all javascript declaration into the code behind file of the master page. It gets generated in the load event: I declare it there as a big string (using StringBuilder) and then put it into the page with Page.
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(... Now that I have introduced themes into my application, I have discovered a serious problem. These themes each utilize their own CSS and skin files to paint the various elements of the app's web pages in different colors (of course). But remember, as parameters, one of my javascript functions requires two colors. And now that I have themes I can no longer manually code these colors into the javascript declaration... Now I have to discover a way to extract the background color and one other color from the current theme's CSS file. Then I can feed that into the javascript declarations in the master page's PageLoad event in the master page's code behind file. This would allow the javascript function to be called on the page load and to use the current theme's colors as parameters.
In my facebook canvas applikation, i store the access token in session. (I use ASP.NET MVC)
But i want to store the access token in a database along with the facebook user id that i can save different access tokens for different facebook users accessing my application.
So when i query the facebook user id and if it doen't return any access token, i request permissions and get the access token for that user.
How do i access the Facebook UserID for the user accessing my canvas application before doing any authentification?
For reasons, I have an <a> tag in my master sheet rather than an ASP link. I want to access this html control from the server when a post back happens and change its style sheet. I have tried many a thing but as yet am still unsuccessful.
I want to implement and allow users to create their own photo albums on my website.Now i was proposing that i have 2 tables:-Quote: tbl_albums{album_id, user_id, album_name, info, date_added} tbl_album_images{image_id, album_id, user_id, caption, date_added} So one table would contain information about the album and the other would be the images inside the album.firstly does this seem like a good approach?If so, i want to know what would be the best way to allow users to do this?

I need to change padding for one column in ASP.NET GridView, while all other CSS atributes defined in external CSS file should be left untouched. How can I do it? Update: Below is my code that solved the problem:
I'm trying to figure out a logical and quick way to implement the "PRG" design style in a small site I'm doing, and I'm finding an issue I can't think of a good way to solve.I have a form. It has 2 fields (first and last name). When the user submits the form, I check to make sure that they have data in them before I save it to the database. If they do not, then I show them a nice little error message and leave what little they have entered still in the form.However, in order to correctly implement PRG, as I understand it
We got a requirement to implment following structure of table (It's a sample; data source is dynamic). Notice that there are intermediate Total (sum) values for the month. If we have the data source (Date and Amount) besides Total, which is calculated out, generate this kind of table-style layout dynamitcally?
Date Amount ========================== 1 Nov 300 22 Nov 500 30 Nov 200 Total 1000 5 Dec 100 28 Dec 200 Total 300
I'm just wondering what's the best way to implement a threaded conversation like the Facebook Wall where the comments are displayed under each post, and older comments are collapsed and expandable. My instinct is to use a nested datalist, but I think that might take a toll on performance.
I want to implement the famous Invite Friends button at my application. Because it's an iFrame I can use FB.Connect methods or XFBML. Can anyone suggest a way to do it in either of these techniques?
I want to comments and this comments users will like but with in update panel. I have problem click buton like number rising in database. But in page don't rise. Update Panel below.

I've encountered a problem when I put a treeview in a page which is using master page. The treeview style doesn't apply.For example, I set the nodes with different colors in different levels. But the treeview nodes are still displayed in the default color(bule).
The treeview code is :
[Code]....
If I use these code in a page which doesn't use a master page. The nodes are shown in colors.
