I have a web application that users insert some comments to the database. But when they try to Write some non-Ascii character to textbox some strange characters apperars instaed of my entered characters.For example When i write ı it appears like this ı
I uploaded my .net website precompiled under vs 2008. I do not have this issue with my site running on a webhost with .net 2.0 under sql 2005. When I login to the site, there are oriental characters:
[Code]....
Every one of the squares is an oriental character. I have tested this on two servers now. As you can see, the characters start right after the Doctype line. This is where another page is loaded on my site.
I am having a very odd issue for my website [URL]. I am seeing strange characters in the home page. visit the site [URL] to view the details The site works perfectly in local system The site is done asp 2.0 and sql server 2005. I have made the customer error mode to Off to view the issues. But the page is coming in odd characters.
Recently I started a project and added a HTML file in it. I modified the HTML file and run it in Visual Studio to see the output. When I tried to validate the HTML file, I found some strange characters got appended. This is quite annoying, although I am not able to see those unexpected characters, I wonder what is the cause of the problem. I didn't adjust anything in control panel of the IIS server, I didn't modify the Web.config file. I tried to add another HTML file and put the same content into it, the same problem occured. Could someone tell me how should I troubleshoot the problem?
using vb.net/asp.net 2005 and sql server 2005. I'm querying the database and returning text which I am then adding to a string. I'm creating a crystal report with the text however this is not a crystal report question, its about the string data. what I"m noticing is that when I show the string on the pdf that there are some strange characters at the end of the string. I am both trimming the string and taking out null characters however the strange text shows up like this:
I am using silverlight / ASP .NET and C#. What if I want to do this from silverlight for instance,
// I have left out the quotes to show you literally what the characters // are that I want to use string password = vtakyoj#"5 string encodedPassword = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(encryptedPassword, Encoding.UTF8); // encoded password now = vtakyoj%23%225
URI uri = new URI("http://www.url.com/page.aspx@password=vtakyoj%23%225");
HttpPage.Window.Navigate(uri);
If I debug and look at the value of uri it shows up as this (we are still inside the silverlight app),
[URL]
So the %22 has become a quote for some reason.
If I then debug inside the page.aspx code (which of course is ASP .NET) the value of Request["password"] is actually this,
vtakyoj#"5
Which is the original value. How does that work? I would have thought that I would have to go,
I developed a website using asp.net 2.0 and sql server 2005. I m using Turkish language content as entries to database tables. But when I try to add any record from my web interface I see strange characters. for example "ş,ğ,İ," characters are viewed like Å,? characters. I set my globalization to culture turkish in web.config. So there s no problem with static data on the page and no problem with records I added earlier in my own machine. I just need to send data in a correct encoding to the database.I first thought it was about collation, but changing collation doesn t differ data sent to database, I think I need to do something from my web app, but still couldn't get any ideas.
Today my client asked to implement SMS Counter and restriction to 150 characters in SMSalert.aspx form,I have done only Validation Control. I am working with SMS for the first time.
I need to validate a textbox that it should allow only certain characters and after the limit is reached the textbox should not allow entering characters in it.It can be done by Javascript but dont know how to do..
I have a problem using Application_BeginRequest and I have absolutely no clue what is going on. When using this code, my website works fine:
[Code]....
Now, when I only alter it like this (note that I am actually doing nothing special):
[Code]....
This small change in code causes that forms don't postback anymore. I am truely clueless why this happens when trying to get some request.form variables.Stupid thing is, when debugging the website using visual studio, everything works fine.
I have a string with 100 characters and it is for me too long in one line. I want to make NewLine after each 25 characters. For example:
Instead: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua."
I have a application that takes a tab delimited text file parses and the inserts the data. Some of the data has international characters. My problem is it appears that my application is changing the characters. For Example the file might contain something lke this Andrlová and is converting it to this Andrlov�
I am passing this into a sproc. The datatypes for my paramater & DB Field is nVarChar(50). If I insert the data directly into my table or if I call my sproc from a query window and pass in some data it works fine, but when my app touches the data it appears to get messed with.
I have strange behavior when changing from ItemTemplate to EditItemTemplate. both the ItemTemplate and EditItemTemplate contain the same textbox with multiline. Except the ItemTemplate got the ReadOnly parameter. When the row is getting in EditMode and I enter the textbox everything is disabled. I click on another column that contains a label instead of a multiline textbox and get back in the textbox I can do everything. When I enter in the same row another MultiLine textbox I cannot do anything until I click on a label and get back in that TextBox. When the textboxes are in normal mode I don't seem to be having this issues. What is changed between the MultiLine and SingleLine textbox? What kind of PostBack or something could cause this strange behavior?
I have a page with 14 dropdown lists. In the first page load (ie. not isPostback) I set the selectedIndex of the dropdownlists individually but I find that they are all set to the value I use for the last dropdownlist set. Here is the code
comboFirstJudge1.SelectedIndex = 0 comboFirstJudge2.SelectedIndex = 0 <so on for all the dropdown lists until the last one> comboFirstJudge14.SelectedIndex = 4
The result is that all dropdown lists have SelectedIndex = 4. If I run the same code on a postback it works just fine (the first lists have SelectedIndex = 0 and the last one = 4).
I have a site that was sucesfully upgraded to Framework 3.5 on Vista with VS2008. Now however after installing VS2010 and upgraded to Win 7 wierd things are happenning and was wonderring if any of you have experienced this and how you've dealt with it.First thing I notice in my main page that the four user controls are not in alignment. They should appear side by side in a single row, however now they spread acros two rows with one on top and three on the bottom. Also my graphics and navigation is not where they supposed to be. Just for comparison, if run the existing solution on Win 2003 with VS2008, it works like it supposed to. All the formatting is handled in .css and that didn't change either.
I have an issue that seems to only happen on my production server. I show or hide table rows whenever the buttons are clicked. However, when I do a postback on the checkbox, all of the rows become visible and the textbox stays empty. It works correctly on my test server and local workstation, just not in production.
Here is the markup...

Here is the code behind...

Here are the unexpected results whenever I check the chkShow2 checkbox... I am guessing this is a configuration issue on the server.
Can you look at the page [URL] and tell me why the image at the top nav bar next to "subscribe | give a gift | customer service | " is not working? The link works, the page appears to be fine, but the image is not showing.
