I'm interested writing a set of custom controls (most likely in ASP.NET), was wondering what sort of guidelines I should follow.- Is there any generic requirements for UI controls that should be followed?
- When writing documentation / samples etc, any guidelines on what they should include?I know it's very general question but interested in your feedback on how I should I begin and maybe have a set of tight guidelines/framework from the beginning.
I've created 2 web user controls. A = User control that displays an image, and B is the user control that hosts A. I'm trying to stream an array of bytes to A, but it seems like the Response.BinaryWrite method completely overwrites any heirachial controls (I can't see any of B's other controls besides the image).
How do I get A to just display the image from the byte stream? It doesn't come from a database, it's an image I created on the fly.
A's code:

I'm a little stuck here, with my first server control. I'll just post the whole thing, as I'm sure I've done plenty of mistakes. The main thing for me to find out is if there's a more elegang way to write this.
What I'm trying to accomplish here is to write a panel with custom HTML inside it. Inside the custom HTML, I need to put some server controls I can actually reach. My attempt at finding the span in the code failed, so there's obviously something wrong.

Obviously, I've only just begun, but I'd really value some feedback before I dig myself in too deep ;)
I have an image of the political map of the USA. I want to write separate click events for each of the 50 states in Visual Studio. How would I do that?
View 2 RepliesI know that you can enable NTLM authentication in an ASP.Net app using:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
However - I need to handle Forms, HTTP and other custom authentications in the same app, so ASP.Net's limited built-in support is no use.
The NTLM handshake should be fairly simple:
Request - [unauthenticated - no user info passed]
Response - 401 Unauthorized
WWW-Authenticate: NTLM
Request - Authorization: NTLM <base64-encoded type-1-message>
[code]...
I need to parse type-1 and type-3 messages and generate a type-2 message.
The structure for those messages is well documented but fairly complex - it seems very messy to write my own message generators and parsers. I think the methods to read and write these messages should already be in .Net, but I haven't been able to find them.
I have written an Http Module that hooks onto the Response.Filter property of the current request and does various replacements within the HTML before it is sent to the client.All the work is done in the Write method which is overriding Write in the base class Stream.
The Write method is called multiple times for a single response - the HTML seems to be written to the output stream in chunks. My problem is that I don't have an efficient & reliable way of telling if the current chunk is the last chunk (for why I want to know this see below). The only way I have come up with is to check if the chunk contains a closing html tag - but this is not very efficient or reliable.
The reason this is needed is that the module must add the "Refresh" HTTP header to the response, but only if the HTML fulfills certain conditions (and there are certain conditions that mean the header must not be added). So, only when the last chunk has been seen does the code know if the header can be added or not. So, I either need a test for the last chunk, or on each call to Write I add the header if the current block of HTML passes the test (if it has not already been added) or remove the header if the current block of HTML fails the test (if it has already been added).
So, is there a better way to test for the last chuck OR is there a way to test for a particular header being in the response and delete it (there doesn't seem to be a way to do this - only to append headers)?
I'm fairly new at writing c# with asp.net and thought I'd give writing a custom class for a single file uploader, but Im a bit stuck with it. I get build errors with a few of the items, here's my code:
[Code]....
I have custom section in my Web config file
<userSettingTemplate configSource="userSetting.config"> </userSettingTemplate>
In the separate userSetting.config file I have some template user details. When a new user is crated the template details are stored in the userSetting.config file. I am trying to write to this filebut not having much luck.
[Code]....
[Code]....
The issue is that the new entryis not saved at all. There are no errors generated. Initially I was getting an error: A configuration file cannot be created for the requested Configuration object.
I am trying to build a custom composite control, which allows me to add custom content to each child control. It's a similar concept to what you have with a GridView and TemplateColumn. The markup used to place the control on the page would end up being something like this:
[Code]....
I have the code below, which allows me to put that markup on the page without throwing any errors, and it renders all the correct HTML, except it doesn't render the contents of the ColumnTemplate. I have replaced the Render() code with a comment because it's quite long winded and doesn't add anything important here:
[Code]....
I have tried to follow examples on MSDN and other forums but I can't make this work. I think I'm missing the code to render the contents of the template, but I don't know how to hook that up.
I know that how to create custom control and add custom property.
I want to create property like DataSource to my custom control.
I have some (probably very basic) questions about developing custom controls. I am wanting to derive a set of button controls, and the first one I have started on is a "DeleteButton", that has a additional property (DeleteConfirmationText) that is built into the OnClientClick attribute. To get that added, I overrode the Render method as follows:
[Code]....
This all works well. Now, I will add some logic to make sure that there is some text in the DeleteConfirmationText property, but that isn't the intent of my question.
What I am also wanting to do is to override some of the default property values, so I added that to the default constructor:
[Code]....
Now, in the designer in VS2008, and I look at the properties for the control, there isn't a default value shown in the "Properties" section, and the Causesvalidation still shows the underlying classes default value of "True". As well, in design mode, where the GridView control that containse my DeleteButton control would be displayed, there is an error box "There was an error rendering the control. 'Are you certain you want to delete this attorney?' cound not be set on property 'DeleteConfirmationText'. Here's the markup where I am defining the deletebutton control:

What am I doing wrong?
Hope this is the correct forum for this question. I am using VWD 2010 an have a web project and get the following error upon execution:
Parser Error Message: Unknown server tag 'custom:AjaxValidator'.

I was just wondering that when we insert some datainto database we can use the following method.
create a sql datasourse ,
set the conection string,
set the insert comand type,
set insert parameters,
and Set the SQL Statement like
sqldatasource.insertStatement="insert into tablename(field1, field2) values(@parameter1, @parameter2)";
and then call the datasourse insert() function,
this method is usually used for single line insertion at the end of the DB.
Now I am a starter in asp.net c#,
I want to know that if There is a way that I have lots of data like some XML file that have the same table structure as the SQL database table
and I want to write that data to the database, HOw to do it Properly,
I can Still achieve the required results by iterating through XML datarows and for each row conecting to db and inserting and then disconecting dfrom the db,
But I want to know that if there is a way to do it in one go meaning I have to conect to database only one time,
Note: I already have some data in my SQL table, there are three fields(ID Name and Nickname) the ID(primary key) is INT type and auto incremented, the name and nickname are strigns.
the xml file has the structure
<userdata>
<user>
<name>michel</name>
<nickname>micho</nickname>
</user>
</userdata>

I don't understand how the stored procedure is returning false. It's supposed to continue looping and continue writing rows. Right now it writes the very first row, and then it goes into the If Not AdvanceLinkBanned.Add(banrec) Then and it goes in here, prints the message and exits the sub. Why is it thinking the add returns false? If Not AdvanceLinkBanned.Add(banrec) ? Doesn't this return the id of the new record? Isn't this not zero? Zero would make it false. How can this be false? Isn't it supposed to return the next record created ? Doesn't SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY() return the value of the record id? How do I test this?

I would like to read from a data reader (or other) and write to a grid of some kind one row at a time in a loop. I prefer this rather than load a data bound grid control all at once. I need to do this because I have to perform some calculations on the data before writing each row.
View 4 Repliesi have a "Users today" function that i am trying to work on, i have all the tables set up, and a TimeStamp column, i would like to know how i could get all the users that appeared, but for that day only.
So i used the select statement, but then when i tried to add into query, filtering, i tried using the DateTime.Now, but it only got the users specific to that date, hour, and second.
I am getting error when i write the belwo code in the code behind.

I have a site using eight (so far) custom web user controls and two of them have started misbehaving in design view. When designing the control itself some (in one control) or all (in the other) regular controls (labels, text boxes, etc.) disappear from the design view surface. They can still be seen in the source view and if the control is hosted on a regular .aspx page the control displays properly. The code window recognizes all controls in the objects dropdown list and I can write appropriate code. The controls run properly on their hosted pages.
If I switch to Split view and select controls in the source view panel a very small area od the design surface becomes selected (like one pixel for any of us who remember programming old DOS applications with 80-column screens) but no controls can be seen.
In short, the controls work in every respect except that I cannot see all or part of the design surface in Design view when editing the controls directly.
I've double-tripple checked the source code for anything that may be causing this and just don't see anything. (The controls aren't that complicated.)
I have a checkbox column in a Gridview that I would like to use to insert the value of one cell in the row into an access database. There will be a maximun of five cells allowed to be selected so there can be one value written to one field in the database up to the maximum of the five fields. The access database has five columns: Selection1 ,Selection2, Selection3 ,Selection4 and Selection5
When the checkbox is checked, the value of one cell (PliD) should be written to each field in the database. Ie: checkbox in row 1 should write PliD value to Selection1, checkbox in row 2 should write PliD value to Selection2, checkbox in row 3 should write PliD value to Selection3 and on depending on which checkbox has been checked. I am not sure how to get the value of the checkbox and write it into the corresponding fields in the database.

Im building on a transaction website that gives the user a few choices for them to choose when they want to view their transactions history
They can choose:
1.Current Month
2. Last 1 month and current month
3. Last 2 month and current month
4. Select date range
How do I include this variable in the stored procedure?
I've got an asp.net application (written in vb.net). I have a results page that spits out some calculations. Ineed to write out that output to MS Word. The catch is, this happens within a folder that is secured (only users that are logged in can generate
the word document).
Here's what I'm using to gen the document. This works ok when running it locally, but not when loaded to GoDaddy hosting.
[Code]....
My code seems works fine locally. However, after loading it to GoDaddy it only works on a non-secured (not subject to ASP Membership), but when trying to use it in a secured folder the page clocks and eventually closes out.
i just cannot work this out... i have a gridview and when a user clicks on a row the checkbox unchecks itself... when the user clicks the row a sqldatasource.update is called from the selectedindexchanged event, problem is when it writes back to the database it writes back every checkbox as unchecked, i want just the row that's selected...
what i can't work out is i've tried putting a where clause in the sqlcommand which is something like where primarykeyID = gridview1.selectedvalue... now it won't write anything back to the database...!!!
... once i take out the where clause, it writes back to every row..!!
