C# - Changing The Value Of A DropDownList In .Net Client Side?
Dec 10, 2010
Assuming that I can't modify the code-behind file for a site (it's a compiled site), I've encountered a bug of mine that can only be fully fixed with a complete recompile and redeployment. Unfortunately, we are on a strict release schedule and we can't deploy for another 11 days.
The bug is that I'm doing a check on a drop down to make sure that the value that is selected isn't "-1". However, I didn't use drp.SelectedItem.Value, I used drp.Items[0].Value. Total bonehead move on my part. The bottom line is that drp.Items[0].Value is ALWAYS -1, so they page gives an error to the user stating that they need to choose an option for that drop down. Which they really have, but my bug is not letting them continue in this process.
So, I'm trying to determine if I could, client-side, replace the value of the first drp item to the actually chosen value of that drop down.
I've gotten this all to work client-side, but when the form is posted back, the value is still the value that was populated from code, meaning "-1".
I'm sure this is because the drop down is loaded and all the values are held in ViewState.

Environment: IE7, ASP.NET 3.5 SP1, C#, IIS 7, intranet, SQL server 2008 R2 enterprise. I'm trying to implement a page with 3 pictures in it (each picture is up to 1MB, jpg format), and switch them with the next 3 each 250 milliseconds. I thought of several methods for implementation:
1. Store all the pictures in a virtual folder, then switching the src attribute of img html element by javascript, and manipulate caching by storing the next 9 pictures also as img element, but with display:none for css.
2. Store the images in a database table and than send it to the client using DIME (don't know how to do it yet).
3. Store the images in a database table and use custom http handler to retrieve the picture (don't know how to do it yet).
4. Client invocation of webservice? Which of the above results the best performance? Is there another method for caching pictures?

Is there a way to change the values for these two attributes on the client side and have it reflected on the server side after the postback. I tried it but it does not seem to work. I wanted to have one button on the page that I would delegate submits too, and assign these two arguments on the client side. Seems like not possible. Assuming there is a button named "cmd" in the form
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#<%=cmd.ClientID %>").click(function () {[code]....
If one checks the value after postback they are still the same as they were before postback.

I've been working on a task to add a validator to compare the values of two text fields in a ASP.NET 1.1 application.
It uses validators already, so the best approached seemed to involve a CustomValidator. I was inspired by the following example:
[URL]
I got the server side validation working - now I'm trying to add some client-side validation but I'm having a strange issue.
When I click in either of the two text fields, the value of the txtFinalGrade field is overridden to either "true" or "false". I've been having a tough time tracking down the code that's causing this. I tried using the IE Developer Toolbar to trace the script - as well as FireBug in Firefox (though this is an IE-only app) and I'm still trying to figure out what's causing this to happen.
Since I think this is a JavaScript issue, I'm posting that part of my code:
[Code]....
Anyone have ideas of things to try? Anyone have similar issues with textboxes being set to true/false when working with custom validators?

I have a user control which contains a CustomValidator which is used according to whether a RadioButton is checked or not (there are several RadioButtons, I'm only showing the relevant one)
<asp:RadioButton runat="Server" ID="RadioBetween" GroupName="DateGroup" CssClass="date_group_options_control_radio" />
[code]...
There is some client + server side validation code (the server side code does exactly the same thing and is skipped for brevity)
<script type="text/javascript">
function ValidateDateFields_Client(source, args) [code]...
There are two instances of this control in the page. When running the client side version it hits the wrong one (the version of the control which is disabled). You can see from the generated HTML both are correctly specified. I'm not sure how .NET works out which clientside function to call given they both have the same name.
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
var ctl00_MCPH1_QueryTextValidator = document.all ? document.all["ctl00_MCPH1_QueryTextValidator"] : document.getElementById("ctl00_MCPH1_QueryTextValidator");
[code]...
Do i need to add something in to scope it? What's the best way to achieve this? If I disable the loading of the second control everything works fine.

I am trying to add a client side event to a dropdownlist and I need to access the currently selected Text. I have tried:
ddl_tech.Attributes.Add("onclick", "document.getElementById('" + chk_techreview.ClientID + "').disabled = this.options[this.selectedIndex].text.Equals(' UNASSIGNED');");
and
ddl_tech.Attributes.Add("onclick", "document.getElementById('" + chk_techreview.ClientID + "').disabled = this.text.Equals(' UNASSIGNED');");
Both of which give me runtime errors when the event is fired.Whats the correct way to access this text property client side?I tried this but it does not enable the checkbox...
ddl_tech.Attributes.Add("onchange", "document.getElementById('" + chk_techreview.ClientID + "').disabled = this.options[this.selectedIndex].text == ' UNASSIGNED';");
ANSWER:
Well, along with having to use == rather than .Equals, when you set a checkbox.enabled = false on the server side it raps the checkbox in tags and sets it to disabled=true; therefore you must set BOTH the checkbox.disabled = false and checkbox.parentElement.disabled = false; on the client side to enable the checkbox!The solution:
ddl_tech.Attributes.Add("onchange", "document.getElementById('" + chk_techreview.ClientID + "').parentElement.disabled = (this.options[this.selectedIndex].text == 'UNASSIGNED'); document.getElementById('" + chk_techreview.ClientID + "').disabled = (this.options[this.selectedIndex].text == 'UNASSIGNED');");

Suppose I'm building a StackOverflow clone using webforms ASP.NET and jQuery. The Question page has a question, several answers, and comments under each. Requirements:Users can post new answers and comments, and edit existing ones, without postbacks. No UpdatePanels; the AJAX calls retrieve just the JSON they need, not HTML fragments. The page loads with all existing answers and comments in place (no javascript needs to run to read the page).
What I'm trying to figure out is how to do this without having to maintain two sets of markup (one that's bound on the client using some form of jQuery templating, and one that's bound on the server using traditional WebForms).

I reordered some items in a listbox using Javascript. When I read the items in a postback in the code behind (ASP.NET), the order is in the original order. How do I get the same order as shown in the screen after Javascript manipulation?

I am trying to set a hidden type value to x on Server Side and then access it with Javascript. I have tried multiple ways to accomplish this.
At the basic level this is what I am trying to do.
Aspx page
<asp:HiddenField ID="HidRowNumber" runat="server" />
CS Page
In IsPostBack
HidRowNumber.Value = EFileRowNumber.Text;
Javscript
var status = document.getElementById("<%= HidRowNumber.ClientID %>").value;
When I am debugin it say it HidRowNumber's Value has changed to x but when I access the value with JS it always returns ''.

I've got two textboxes running server side and have their visibility turned off. I'm using a couple of ASP.NET controls which require the textboxes to exist. However, I am filling them from the code behind and would not like the user to see this. Can the user turn the visibility on and see the values entered in the text box? I tried using FireBug, and I couldn't seem to select the visibility option in order to edit it. However, I'm quite new to Firebug, so there may be another way? Or does running it server side mean that the client can't ever view the contents of the textbox?

I have a list of items on an ASP.net page. That list is selectable in that whenever the user clicks on one, the page does a postback and the server code stores the index or some unique identifier of the picture in a ViewState property indicating that it is currently selected.
I would like to minimize the load on the server and therefore I would like to store the index or unique identifier representing the image in some way on the client side. The best way I can think to do this is to store said information in a hidden field ), however I had two questions about this before I go crazy:
Is this a security risk in any way, shape or form (i.e., exposing implementation details of the page)?
Is there a better/best way to do this that is more industry-standard? Does ASP.net provide a framework to do this that is cleaner than my idea? Seems like this would be a fairly common requirement to me...

in a form i have a buttoin, when click both OnclientClick and postback should happen. on clicking the "Email" button a client side "mailto" tag should do the work and pull a new message window on the client's machine.
whereas, the email addresses should be invoked by the post back. so , when clicking the button the server side post should happen and on return the client side script should be invokded with the values read during post back, and populate all the email addresses.
i need know how to first do a server hit take the values and then execute the client script with those values without using AJAX

The idea is that a pure html table will be generated on the client side. (using jQuery to add dynamic new rows to the table when the user clicks a button). These rows contain textboxes, dropdownlists, checkboxes and other input controls. When the user clicks a button, a PostBack is triggered in which I need to access this data from the table on server side, validate it and perform other actions on it.
I'm able to perform the client side and access the table data on server side by adding runat="server" to the table tag. However, I only see the initial table rows (not the ones added through JavaScript) and I have troubles retrieving the different inputs from the rows. put me in the right direction?? Or someone offering a better solution to the problem?

I have a content-sensitive firewall between my clients and my server. If we exclude SSL solution (it's not available in my case) then I was thinking of a javascript library which encrypts custom fields at client-side and a .NET class decrypts them at server-side. Is there any solution out of the box (maybe a server control) ?

ASP.NET newbie question - fastest fingers!
I have a page that needs to pull some script off the server, including tag info, for the page. Thus:
<html><body>
blahblahblah
<%: Model.TaggedField %>
</body></html>
Problem is, the value of Model.TaggedField may include HTML tags, but the page automatically converts the tag info to <myTag> etc.
What method can I call to make the value of Model.TaggedField be transmitted verbatim to the page?
