I have a html textarea in my form, and when I postback the form, the value of textarea gets lost. I want the value of this textarea to be restored.I know that for restoring the value of textbox, I can directly use value=@Response["TextBoxName"], but this is not valid for text area, so I request you to suggest me a solution.
View 5 RepliesI'm working with an MVC1.0 web app and I've found a bit of an odd anomaly.
I have a search box on the first page (normal text box) and the input from this is passed through to the ViewData and on to the second page.
On the second page, I render a TextArea with this search input text from the ViewData.
Eg:
[Code]....
The problem is, there is an extra line break in the TextArea, just above the original text.
Stranger still is that if I now submit this page and the view is reloaded (after validation fails) - the original string of text has been trimmed and has no line breaks, but the TextArea now has 2 line breaks above the original text.
This can be repeated - every time the page reloads it has another line break.
It's driving me insane - does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
FYI, you can check it out yourself - on your mobile phone, browse to [URL], punch something in the search box and hit search. You'll notice one line break added the first time the page loads. Then just hit "Find Best Offer" without entering a budget or selecting a category, and you'll see what I mean about the additional line breaks.
I've found a Webmatrix help article that says MS Webmatrix "publishes the (SQL Server or MySQL) database by creating scripts that run in a database that has been created for you by your hosting provider." That is wonderful, except I can't get it to work when I'm trying to publish a MySQL database (backing wordpress) through FTP (my hosting provider does not support 'web deploy'). Again, no problem, since it is already documented that " FTP protocols cannot be used to publish MySQL database. " But this does not excuse Webmatrix from generating MySQL database install scripts for me. During the publishing step, no database install script is generated - at least that I can tell - and there is no manual option to create a database export / backup / install script.
In short, as Webmatrix goes, I'm dead in the water trying to get my database uploaded to my hosting provider. Does anyone know the trick to force Webmatrix to create the MySQL database install scripts on my local box? Once created, I can take-over the upload and install process.
I'm wondering if it is possible to include Microsoft.Data.Entity.CTP.dll reference to WebMatrix site and if the Compact edition of the database would support it? I'd kinda love use something like
code-first development in my WebMatrix project. I think is even easier than writing SQL-s into the code...

I struggle with publishing 2 databases from WebMatrix using WebDeploy. On Publish settings screen I specify 2 different connection strings, but on Publish Compatibility screen Database names in both destination connection strings are equal. When I return to settings screen, original value is replaced there as well.
How destination server connection strings are evaluated? Here are connection strings from the root web.config file, which are set by hidden parameters in my parameters.xml:
<connectionStrings>
<add connectionString="Server=(local);Database=xxx;Uid=xxx;Pwd=xxx" name="xxx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add connectionString="Server=(local);Database=xxx2;Uid=xxx;Pwd=xxx" name="xxx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

I downloaded WebMatrix thinking I could create a local Intranet page and simply host it from my server. Can I do this with WebMatrix? If so how?
View 1 RepliesI'm often experiencing that keyboard shortcuts stops working in WebMatrix. This is very annoying as CTRL-S, CTRL-C, CTRL-V, etc. stops working, all of which are heavily used when programming. It's obviously hard to explain how to reproduce this, but I waswondering if someone knows a quick-fix?

My hosting company states they support .net and razor. However after uploading my website made with webmatrix and razor *.cshtml pages. When i visit my website all i get is 404.17 error messages. As an testcase i decided to add an standard .aspx page. Visiting that page gives the same 404.17 error message :-(
.
According to my webhoster my web.config is wrong. However that one is generated by webmatrix. Besides my *.cshtml *.aspx a lot of files and directories are added to the bin folder. What can i check and what should my hosting provider check. When using the check compatibility the asp.net version is shown as unknown? My hosting provider claims my site is running asp.net 4.0 in integrated mode and that should be enough.
It's unfortunate that Microsoft WebMatrix (beta) doesn't recognize that files has been modified. I suggest you implement a feature similar to Visual Studio, allowing the user to decide what to do if the file has been modified outside WebMatrix. Especially when you have a button to launch the project in Visual Studio, it should have better support for "dual-development", cause at it is now, code can be overwritten by mistake easily.
View 3 RepliesI got the first beta of WebMatrix, downloaded Drupal, and got a site more or less going. I then tried to move it to two different hosts - first the IIS server running on my own domain controller, then to my hosting service. I dumped the DB with mysqldump, and imported it to the databases running on each server. Then I ftp'd the code and configuration files to both servers, and made appropriate configuration changes (primarily the mysql connect string).On both servers I have the same problem: The site comes up in its home page and looks great, but as soon as I log in as the site admin, I get a 404 (not found) error. Since it looks like virtually everything in Drupal is driven from the database, I really haven't the faintest idea where to start debugging this.

I am trying to limit what I write on all my .cshtml pages. For example, on everypage I am @using myDLL and "connecting" to sql server.
I write that out like
@using System.myDLL;
@{
myDLL dll = new myDLL();
dll.ConnectionString = "blablabla";
}
How can I remove the need to do that to every single page? I think I can create a web.config and do some funky stuff... can someone show examples?

I have just opened my project and a RadAjaxLoadingPanel has got an error on it and deleted everything that was in it...
There is nothing in the design view or source view now...
I opened my back up from last night, and that is the same...
I opened my backup from Friday night and that is OK, BUT it will mean re-doing al of yesterday's work and a few hours from the weekend...
I tried copying the page from the server (I had uploaded the site last night and it's working fine), but when I try and open it I get 'This is a marker file generated by the precompilation tool, and should not be deleted!'...
Is there anyway to restore my page from the page sitting on the web server..?

[code]...
I have an ASP.NET page with a textbox and a button. In the textbox I enter let's say a name "Laurel" and click the button. The textbox is related as a control parameter to a data source and this data source pulls the content "Laurel" from the textbox to build a query, selects all orders of customer Laurel and sends them back to the browser where they are displayed in a list (gridview for instance). The list is long and has two pages (the list has a pager control). The list is on the same page where also the textbox is located. So I see now a page in my browser with the textbox (still containing the text "Laurel") and a list with a pager.
I could do now two actions:
Enter the name "Hardy" in the textbox and click on the button: The cycle above runs again and orders of customer Hardy are displayed. That's fine and what I want. Click on the pager control to display the second page of Laurel's orders. This works because I still have "Laurel" in the textbox. So on the postback triggered by the pager control the data source can extract again "Laurel" as query parameter from the textbox, run the query and deliver the second page of orders to my browser. That's fine too.
Actually there could be a third action:
I enter the name "Hardy" in the textbox, then change my mind and decide that I want to see the second page of Laurel's order. So I have "Hardy" in the textbox but don't click the submit button but instead I click on "next page" of the pager control to view the second page. On the server the data source extracts the content "Hardy" of the textbox, runs a query and then tries to deliver the second page of Hardy's instead of Laurel's orders. So that's not what I want. (Perhaps Hardy has only a few orders, not enough for two pages. The data source might tell me then "Nothing found" because there is nothing on the second page for Hardy.)
(What I mean can also be seen here on stackoverflow: Enter something in the search box, for instance "ASP.NET" and hit the enter key, you'll get a long result list with many pages. Then enter another term in the searchbox, for instance "PHP" but don't hit enter, instead click on page 2 in the pager control on bottom of the page. A postback occurs (which also transmits the new content "PHP" of the searchbox, I guess), the second page for keyword "ASP.NET" is displayed and the searchbox doesn't contain "PHP" anymore but instead again "ASP.NET".)
Question is now: How can I avoid a situation like this? My basic idea is: I need to restore the old value "Laurel" in the textbox to provide the correct parameter value to the data source query and my old value "Laurel" must be stored "somewhere" (on server? where on server? on client? if on client, hidden in the page or in a cookie or... ?). Are there some standard patterns to deal with this requirement? Or am I thinking in the wrong direction?

I am creating a winform app in C# to store formatted text from a rich text box to MySQL database, which can be retrieved back to the rich text box. The database field is a VARCHAR and my code is something similar to below. But I'm getting "file not in correct format" error. Can anyone tell what could be the problem? Is the VARCHAR field okay to store it or should I change it to a BLOB?
string rtfText = this.richTextBox1.Rtf;
// save rtfText to database field as varchar
// ...
// reload rtfText from database as string
this.richTextBox1.Rtf = rtfText;
I had a web reference set in my VS2008 ASP.NET project, but due to some source control weirdness it is no longer listed in the project. I have the set of files in the Web References folder under my project. There's a .wsdl, .disco and several .datasource files. Is there any way to re-add this web reference through the existing files rather than using the "Add Web Reference" dialog?
