What's the next best alternative to IIS? What's the alternative if I install a server in Windows and what's the alternative if I install a server in Linux. I'm not allowed to install IIS here at work, since they've experience security issues here.
View 10 RepliesOne of my classes currently is a C# class. I was given a small assignment for creating a bare-bones Facebook clone. I am now ready to list wall posts on user's pages.Having just been taught about DataLists (using tables), I thought I'd use one. However, I'm told "The messages list must be displayed without using table tags (<table>, .<td>, etc.)"
This is not really a coding question, just asking for a recommendation on how I should go about displaying posts without tables while still easy on the eyes (including name, the poster's picture, the message, and a date).
I'd like to add some properties to logged in user. The last time I did this was a website made in VS2005 and ProfileCommon worked just fine. It seems however that this class is not included in web applications in general and .NET 4.0 in particular. I there for assume there is now a better way of doing this. Could anyone tell me what it is? In short I'd like to add PersonID to user's login to make it easy to hide information not related to that particular user by setting controllers like
if (!User.IsInRole("Administrator") {
var item = PickLists.GetPerson(User.Profile.PersonID); // or something like it
return View();
}
var item = PickList.GetPeople();
return View();
}
Is there any other alternative of usercontrol other than webpart and iframe,Which i can use in my asp.net application.
View 3 RepliesI would like to convert my Frames-based web application to non-frames.Challenges:I have a frame of exploding tree menus (total tree around 1,000 menu choices - up to 5 levels of average 7 choices for each item). From this menu, one gets to the first content page (all dynamically created data pages). The content page can link to other content pages and so one.As the user navigates around in the right side, how can I have the display retain the exploded structure of the menu without using Frames (in a way that the browser back button will continue to work).Does anyone have an example of an application where there are many content sections on the screen which retain their state as the page is refreshed, without using frames?
View 3 RepliesI am using a datapager on a page where different images are shown. Now i am using the following code:-
PHP Code:
<asp:DataPager ID="DataPager1" runat="server"
PagedControlID="lvPhotoViewer" PageSize="1"
onprerender="DataPager1_PreRender">
<Fields>
<asp:NextPreviousPagerField ButtonType="Link"
PreviousPageText="<< Previous" NextPageText="Next >>"/>
</Fields>
</asp:DataPager>
Now this code does run through all the images, but i need to alter the querystring and make it change to match the ID of the photo displayed. I tried adding QueryStringField="String" but this was hopeless.
I have a querystring like so:-
Quote:
[URL]
When i click on next image i need it to change to something like:-
Quote:
[URL]
See the PhotoID has changed. But it currently does not do this. When i arrive on the page the PhotoID stays the same. I have been trying for a while and im starting to give up!
So was wondering if there was an alternative.
Gridview has problems in an updatepanel. So i was thinking if there is an alternative for preventing postbacks with the gridview.

When I first arrive on the page I see this querystring, depending on the picture selected a different ID will be shown:- [URL]
See the bold. When I click on the next image I need the querystring to change to the ID of the image. So something like. But it does not work, I don't know to do it. I tried with adding QueryStringField="String" but this didn't work either.
Is anyone able to offer any decent alternatives to the telerik ASP.Net controls.
I'm in the market for a decent grid control with all singing all dancing extensions... bt I'm finding the telerik grid really hard work to deal with.
The telerik controls do look good, but after a day of hard work with them I'm just looking to see if there are any other 3rd party offerings?

View 5 RepliesI need to create an ASP.net page that has a control on the page that has a five-level TreeView on the left side of the page, and accounting balances on the right side the coincide with each breakdown in the tree. Top level is company, next is group, next is program, etc... and the balances break down accordingly.
I've seen that there are controls out there such as TreeView/ListView combination controls that can do this. Is there any tutorials or out there on how to go about accomplishing this without paying for controls? Could a treeview do this alone by spanning data across the entire length of the columns since every level will have totals on it?

View 1 RepliesI use excel through vb.net/asp.net to generate reports from a web page and then send the file down to the user. We've had some issues with Excel being super slow/inefficient/not closing (even when we keep track of the process id and try to kill it in code...). So I'm looking for some flexible alternatives. We need a replacement that can:
Allow for inidivdual cell formatting including borders (different settings on each side), background colors, font styles/coloring, etc...
Allow for cell merging
Allow for formatting (bolding in this case) of a portion of the text inside of a cell while leaving the rest of the text unchanged
Image insertion/repositioning inside a cell (not crucial)
Multiple Worksheets per Workbook
These are all the features I can think of off hand, any help or suggestiong at alternative libraries to look at would be appreciated. We are running Excel 2007 on the server but we are rolling out Office 2010 to clients so I think that might open the doors for some more supported file formats,
I have setup a site in asp.net with a web.config at the root of the site.I now want to provide an alternative version of the site for mobile devices and would like to have a login.aspx page for the mobile version of the site.I know I could use a stylesheet to provide a cut down display for mobile devices but this doesn't always work. I play to create a /mobile directory on my website (www.angleseyfood.net/mobile) and have a simplified version of the site in there. I wondered whether I could have another web.config within the /mobile directory which points to a different (mobile optimised) version of the site.

View 4 RepliesWorking with a client and there ever changing requirements can be a big pain. I find myself in a similar situation.I have a Multi-Select ListBox with current size set to 4. The client, in UAT, while experimenting realized that he would have to scroll to find a listed entry at possition 9. He has raised a concern for having to scroll to find an entry. We have 7 such ListBoxes.We thought of the following solutions and could not implement due to:1. Expanding the SIZE - The list entries are variable and may/will increase in future.2. Searching - This will introduce additional refreshing of page and increase the complexity.Can any suggest a solution that would not include any major changes to the existing setup, maintaining the simplicity of the page?
View 4 RepliesIn a gridview, how does one create/add more than one button where each does something different?
I need 3 buttons for each row in a gridview.
Each will open a different target page/url when clicked on. I've done this in classic asp but how does one do it in asp.net using gridview? Or should I be doing something else? Maybe a repeater or some other control? I would need sorting and paging too.
I am trying to duplicate the functionality of this classic asp application I created years ago:
[URL]
Search for street name="oaK"
The results of the search is what I need to duplicate in asp.net.
I have the basics done but can't figure out how to make additional buttons in the gridview of the results do different things in this asp.net application:
