What is the Best way to write my own HTML from code behind?
i currently use this :
<asp:Literal ID="ltr" runat="server"></asp:Literal>
and from code behind :
ltr.Text = "<p class="specific-class"></p>";
is it a right to do something like this?
I'm trying to add some basic HTML markup to my code-behind, just a H1 and a few breaks separating strings in the message.Body, but can't seem to get it going without errors.

Probably a straightforward thing, or not intended usage at all,
i want to nkow ik i can write a html code in the code behind if yes show me how?
View 3 RepliesI want to know how the server will process my page that contain:
1- ASP.NET markup mixed with HTML elements.
2- Code behinde.
Will it read the ASP.NET markup line by line and even HTML elements? And then reads the code behind? or what exactly?
I have a textbox on my aspx page defined as:
<input name= tbdisplay type="text">
I can pick the data (I built a touch screen keyboard and I used javascript to write to the thextbox) from code behind using:
string textdisplaydata = this.Request.Form.Get("tbdisplay");
But I can't figure out the way to write back to the same display from code behind. In other words, I need to send a message back to the textbox from code behind. Because I did not defined the tbdisplay to runat="server", I can't see the control tbdisplay. Also, I can't run the tbdisplay at server because the keyboard doesn't work.
I've been assigned changes to make to an ASP.NET project. The WebForm I'm working on needs to dynamically display and hide controls in response to user actions.
So far, so good. My approach would be to create a little JavaScript. However, on this page, the markup is part of a template for a Telerik control (which I know nothing about). I'm not sure the ramifications of this. Can I still use JavaScript for templated markup?
I tried to insert some existing JavaScript in the page. The first problem I have is my use of <%= ControlName.ClientID %>, which produces an error because the name of the control in the template is not seen to exist by ASP.NET.
Is there another way to do this, or am I just going to run into more problems?
I have a field in my SQL database that contains HTML markup from the HTMLEditor control in the AjaxControlToolkit. When I use the Report Viewer and SQL Reporting Services to display this field in a report, the field is displayed using the tags. I would either like to hide the tags completely or render them so that they format the text appropriately, rather than the tags be displayed as a load of <p>, <br>, <strong> tags etc. I've searched around and tried out a few different articles but haven't yet had any success.
View 7 Repliesi've to display a messagge in my homepage (default.aspx) different for each "installation" of my web app. i would like to avoid to make a call to database to show this message.. so i've thougth to use web.config to store something like this
<add key="WelcomeString" value="lorem ipsus <b>doloret sit amen</b>" />
But i've noticed i can't use html markup into web.config Is there a better approach ? Or is there a way to insert html markup into web.config ?
I'm a new comer to the asp.net world. I hear a lot about asp.net mvc and it's advantage over webforms about the ability to customize the markup and css. I also heard that asp.net is much easier to learn than asp.net mvc so I decided to go for asp.net and webforms. My question is: what's the level of customization a web developer/designer can get with webforms concerning the markup and css?
View 4 RepliesI have a Master Page as well as a standard Web Form aspx file. What if I wanted to dynamically modify the complete HTML markup in an aspx file (perhaps based on a conditional statement - perhaps in a specific content place holder), how would I go about doing this? Sorry I'm coming from a PHP background so this is why I'm asking such a simple question.
View 1 RepliesI have an ASP.NET site which uses a 3rd party activeX control. I have to pass a few parameters to the OBJECT tag in the HTML page. If i hardcode these parameters into the HTML everything works.
I would like to place the parameters in my web.config with app settings "key/value" pairs.
My problem is i cannot read the app key setting in the HTML markup to succesfully pass them in as parameters. I can read them fine from server side code behind.
What's the correct way to read these settings in the client side HTML markup ?
I have an asp.net page i do authentication and authorization of a user and user can make several ajax requests from this page. What i want to ensure is that the request only from this page so i will store some data(or token)(possibly a function of userID + user IP address + current time) encrypted in the page aswell as in the session so the requests that come with this token will only get served.
View 1 RepliesHi,
Everytime I view the source of ASP.NET website I found alot alot of HTML markup generated. I even tried Visual web Developer and design a simple page and then do the same thing with PHP and I found ASP.NET generates more HTML!
Now, how can ASP.NET be faster if it is generating HTML in this way!
below is a sample ow what i'm tring to do
[Code]....
what it should output is my enable image with the text on the right saying 'enable' if i only have Text='<img src="app_images/enable.png" />' i have the image, just a question of how to add the resource entry at the end of it...
Is it possible to access the html markup of programmatically created controls, and if so, how?
In c# you can write things like:
[code]...
I need some people to edit the ressource file without seeing html markup.
How can I do that .. ? I tried RESX edition but it doesn't hide the markup.
What is best practice for saving and displaying rich text?
Example: I want to store an article with links, different font styles and so on. What format should it be saved in?
How are people saving their "content".
I have the following call in my app:
...
var message = "<label style='font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; color: Gray;'>" + currentPlayerName + "</label>: ";
$.ajax({
url: "/Game/SendMessage",
type: "POST",
[Code]....
When I call this function it always drops an error. I think there is a problem with the data that I want to send back to the server.
Is it possible to do things in a PHPish way in ASP.Net? I've seen <%= %> but I've tried it and couldn't get it to work. The PHPish equivalent of what I want to do is
<script src="<?php echo ResolveUrl("jquery/js/jquery.js"); ?>"></script>
I have an aspx-Page with an anchor-tag. Itīs href has to take a parameter of thepage, which is a public member.public int CommissionId
{
get
{
//..
}
}
I know how to design the link in code-behind, but want to do it in Markup.I tried
<a href='<% String.Format(@"Details.aspx?commissionId=" + CommissionId) %>' runat="server" id="cancelLink" class="button" onclick="this.blur();"><span>Back</span></a>
I've been working on the ASP.NET Development Server recently (on an MVC project and I'm finding that it is inconsistent in how it serves the changes I make to my code. For example, I make a change to the C#/HTML/CSS/JS in the dev environment and run the page, and the change appears on the screen. But if I edit the HTML again and run the page again, the new change doesn't appear. Even ctrl+F5 doesn't do it. I have to stop the web server and run the app again for the changes to update. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to sort this problem out?
If I'm working in IIS and I change something, a ctrl+F5 will always update the page with the changes I've made. I'd like the dev server to be as reliable.
While it has gnerally been advocated to separate code from mark up and all that, with the razor syntax and webmatrix all that is not valid anymore, I think. WebMatrix encourages code and mark up in the same page! So what is the best practice as far as code and mark up is concerned.
View 6 RepliesI have a legacy solution where all the DataSources are defined in the markup for all .aspx-pages. The problem I have with this is that the DataSource get instantiated several times since it is used in page, control... What I want is to have NInject to handle the instantiation of the DataSource so this doesn't happen. I have got that part to sort of work, but when the DataSource is defined in the code-behind instead of in the markup the Page property is not set on the DataSource, does anyone know why? A simple solution to this is to set the the Page property in a base class or something, but I do think that the property should be there and want to know why.
View 2 RepliesI'm new to custom server controls and I'm hoping to use them to build various 'modules' for different sites I build to cut down on duplicate code.I'm familiar with custom user controls in which I can create an .ascx & .ascx.vb file which can then be imported into an .aspx page and used freely.However, with custom server controls I cannot find a way of using markup/html code. Is this possible at all or must all code be created programmatically?
View 1 RepliesI have a public property defined in code behind of a user control. I want to toggle visibility of controls in the markup based on the property's value.
However, using the following syntax:
<td style="display:<%#(Container.PageControlMode == PageControlMode. PageMode.Wizard) ? "none" : "inline" %;">
I have the following property in my code behind:
public PageMode PageControlMode { get; set; }
Does not work and generate errors.
