C# - Server Control Within A Template Be Sensitive To The Data Context?
Jan 25, 2010
Let's say a control X has a template called RowTemplate.
So X's markup would be like:
<foo:X>
<RowTemplate>
<foo:Y>...</foo:Y>
</RowTemplate>
</foo:X>
My question is: How can the Y control be sensitive to the data context? I know I can use template inline tags to get access to the data context: <%# Eval("Id") %>, but I cannot pass this information to Y because template inline tags are not allowed in server controls.
So I don't know how I could use the Object's Id (Eval("Id")) in Y.

I know that the code depicted below will not work but I am including it to convey the idea of what I wish to accomplish. I want to use a different SiteMap to construct the menu on the displayed page for each of three different classes of service (COS).
I set a session variable named "COS" at the login and want to test its value prior to rendering each page. I want to display a menu based upon the appropriate COS. Here is my first stab at it but I know that I cannot include <asp:...> controls within the "case" statements. Can anyone suggest methods of doing this? I know C# and can use that but I do not know how to select the proper sitemap within the <menu> control. I am also using a CSS in my production version.

Trying to figure out the best way to organize a ASP.NET MVC site. Take a very simple 1..N relationship: Company can have many Contacts, Contacts must have exactly one Company.I have your typical routes:
Company/Index (list all companies)
Company/Details/{int} (details of Company {int})
Company/Create (create new company)
Contact/Index (list all contacts)
Contact/Create (create new contact, company is selected from drop down)
Now if I wanted to create a page that created a Contact in the context of a Company (from the Company detail page) so that the required company is filled in/not editable), what would be the best route of going about that, while not duplicating code where possible.Not sure if I can leverage the Contact/Create logic/view from the Company controller (and be able to route back to the Company Details page when complete), or mess with the routes to do something like Company/Details/{int}/Contact/Create (not even sure if that makes sense or would work)?There has got to be a better way then me adding my logic and view for adding a Contact into my Controller view and having it duplicated.

I have situation where I need to authenticate a client across multiple web services. Basically each service needs to identify the client and know a few other small pieces of information about the client.
The way I have it working now is that the needed identifying information is stored in a session table in a database by the authenticating web server. The web server hands the client an string, which IDs the database entry and gets passed to the other web services. The web services then use this string to pull the needed information about the client from the database entry.
It has occurred to me that it might be possible to give the client an encrypted blob that contains the user ID and other needed information, which is rather small, and avoid using the database for this completely. The client would just pass around the blob (like the string in the previous paragraph) without needing to know what it contains, and only the web services would know how to decrypt it.
This should eliminate the need for the database to store the session information and would make the whole process a good bit simpler. With the database you have to worry about cleaning up old sessions and timeouts and so on.
So my question: is passing around sensitive data from service to service via client considered safe and acceptable? Is it possible to do this in a way that would eliminate worry about the client tampering with the data? What encryption algorithms would be good to use?

Im passing sensitive details from my asp.net web app to a database on a different server. I've set up encryption on my database. Should I encrypt the data in the code behind file of the web app and then pass it to my database stored procedure or pass it to the stored procedure as it is and encrypt it there?

I have a validator on a textbox that validates against a list to ensure that the user doesn't input the same name. When testing it, if I type in the same name including the same case structure, it returns an error. If I change one letter to a different case, it doesn't return an error but rather my SQL server returns a duplicate error. How do I change the server-side validator so that it picks up duplicate names regardless of case?

I have a big problem...I have made a page has a Data FormView controland the insert template of this Formview control has DropDownList to allow the user to choose section (SectionsDDList)..and there's also another DropDownList allow the user to choose a teacher (TeachersDDList)...more infothe SectionsDDList get the section list from SqlDataSource control which the "Select Command" of is:"SELECT section_id,section_id FROM sections"the TeachersDDList get the teachers list from another SqlDataSource control which the "Select Command" of is:"SELECT teacher_id,teacher_name FROM teachers WHERE (section_id = @section_id)"finallyI want the TeachersDDList to be filled with teachers according to the selected section from the SectionsDDList...So,I enable the Auto postBack function of the SectionsDDListand add the next code for the SectionsDDList_SelectedIndexChanged event:TeachersDataSource.SelectParameters["section_id"].DefaultValue = ((DropDownList)sender).SelectedValue;be aware that both of the SectionsDDList & TeachersDDList have been Bounding to a column...and the problem I have faced is that:Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.maybe you want to know the Stack Trace:[InvalidOperationException: Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.]

I'm teaching myself ASP.net. I'm creating an application that needs to store sensitive data. So, I found the following Blog to encrypt and decrypt data.
[URL]
I'm sure it's my app, but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything obvious. For some reason, my app and Encryptor only works when I pass < then 7 characters. If a pass 8, it doesn't commit to the database. If I remove Encryptor, the app will store

I'm trying to have an asp.net custom control with a field like:
<ErrorTemplate>
<h1>Error</h1>
<p>Blue wizard shot the food</p>
</ErrorTemplate>
What I want to end up with is:
<h1>Error</h1><p>Blue wizard shot the food</p> in a string in my codebehind.
At the moment, the process I use to get this data out of the template is:
First this gets instantiated into a placeholder by my code:
ErrorTemplate.InstantiateIn(errorPHolder);
which is an asp.net placeholder control - it has to be instantiated into something which can support controls.
What I then want to do is add this to my page using JQuery and a variable, like this:
string script = "var Errortemplate = " + errorPHolder.ToString() + ";";
scriptmanager.register(script); // pseudocode
so the result would be, on my page:
var Errortemplate = '<h1>Error</h1><p>Blue wizard shot the food</p>';
Then I can use JQuery to do someDiv.html(Errortemplate);
Finally resulting in whatever they put in <ErrorTemplate> appearing on the page
Because I'm using JQuery it might be possible to do this a different way, such as adding the placeholder to the page into a hidden div and using JQuery to copy the values out.

I have a formview with various templates set up for a database that has 255 columns. I need the insertitemtemplate to pre-fill values based upon a specific selection by the user (just like the edit item template) but when the template is switched to insertitemtemplate every text box is cleared. The idea is that a new entry is usually made by making minor changes to an existing entry. With 255 fields I don't want to require the user to enter every field when only three or four need to change.

I have a gridview which the columns are created programmatically.
When a button is click i will clear all columns and add the columns that I want. Im adding a boundfield which is not a problem. When I add a template field, I must add also the item template which is my problem.
How can I add a item template in the template field I created which is binded in my datasource. Also what event handler should I use to do this.
Here's the part of my code:
[Code]....
Someone know how can I bind a label item template from the datasource. The label item template should be firstname + middlename + lastname.
If im not doing it programatically, it will be just concatenating eval(). But how can create item template and bind it programmatically?
