Internet Explorer - Back Button Gets Disabled On IE 7,8 For Site
Apr 22, 2010
In an ASP.NET 3.5 website we are noticing that the back button is not working properly. If the user does several postbacks (say 10 times), and than starts pressing back button - the back button gets disabled before the user gets through all the pages. The site does not use AJAX.net.
I can reproduce the issue on IE 7 and 8 almost always. The problem seems to be with some sort of limit IE has on History Cache for a given tab/instance. In the tests I did the post request to the server are large - around 83k, and the responses are are round 300k. It seems that with these request sizes the history does not hold more than 4 items. The moment I get to the 5 post, the first item i had selected is dropped.
I have developed some aspx pages using visual studio 2008. I am authenticating using Active Directory services. I have kept a link button on my aspx page which says signout .What exactly i want to do is that i want the back button of my login page to be disabled so that when i press signout and when my login page loads users cant go back and thus forced to enter the login details. I am using c# as development language.
I've got an asp.net page that uses dynamically populated DropDownLists and OnSelectedIndexChanged events. A few days ago I found a defect where hitting the back button would load the previous page from the browser's cache, so the DropDownList would already have a selected index (hence the OnSelectedIndexChanged event would not fire properly as it didn't have the default selected index). I understood the issue and googled around. It's a well known issue that doesn't have an easy solution because of how the browser interacts with the page. After a bit of thought, I went with a trivial javascript solution to reset the ddls:
var gvTable = document.getElementById("foo"); if (gvTable != null) {
[code]...
This worked well and I was happy. Until I tested it in IE. In IE, it appears to run the script, THEN load the cached values of the DDL. That is, I observe the DDL snapping back to the 0 index, and then suddenly dropping down to the previously selected value. I'm sort of at a loss here, I typically debug in firebug, but this works perfectly in firefox and chrome.
how can i get around the following problem-i have a drop down list control on one of my pages- ddlEmployeeTypeit lists 1.Perminent2. Contract3.Tempon selected index change, if its contract or temp, then a text box appears where the user need to type in the contract expiry date-so changing from Perminent --> Contract text box appears- but when the internet explorer back button is clicked - the text box dissapears (which is fine) but the ddl does not change it still reads contract i wanted it to revert back to perminent.is there a solution to this problem?
when i test this page http://www.catalogues4u.com.au/ViewCategory.aspx?catID=119 im getting the above error. to replicate this issue visit the above page in ie7 and you will get the prompt.
I have an ASP.NET problem. When I press Back on Internet explorer, the previous page will be appeared. I need to prevent this page form appearing. How can I do this
I get the following error when downloading excel file in SSL site:
Internet Explorer cannot download xxxx.aspx from mysite.com. Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later.
After googling, I suspect that it's the problem of the response header. I try the solution in this page and set the header:
I have asp button control on my page. Upon running in IE, it is not doing anything even postback. While the same is running perfect in Firefox. I have surfed the web regarding the problems and almost applied all the things. I have no double forms tag. I found one solution to set UseSubmitBehavior="false". After this, it work but my text box controls lose its content. I am using framework 3.5.
I have a crystal report page where on clicking upon internet explorer button i need to show this message.Some time it shows the message and some time it doesn't ??
I'm currently building a simple chat application and I have everything working real smooth except for one thing, and this problem is only in IE as far as I know (in firefox there is no problem).
In my chat application I have the textbox where the user writes the messages to the chat and the button that sends this message togheter in an updatepanel (so that there is no visible postback when pressing the button). I also have in the form tag "defaultbutton=" set to the button. The problem is that when the user uses Internet explorer and presses Enter instead of pressing the button with the mouse that after the 2 first times he/she does this causes the textbox to stop focus on it, which it shouldnt do as in the end of the button the code says it should focus, which works the 2 first times for some reason.heres the code where the problem exists:
aspx:
form id="form1" runat="server" defaultbutton="Button1"> <asp:ScriptManager ID="scriptManager" runat="server">
I have a control which inherits from LinkButton and I'm trying to make sure that the user cannot cause mayhem by performing multiple postbacks. That seemed an easy enough challenge, so I have this code [snippet] on the client:
[Code]....
The alert is of course only there for debugging. If the DisableOnClick value is false, then I see the "Posting Back" alert and, when I click ok, the postback occurs - all good.
If the DisableOnClick value is true, then the "button" gets disabled and the cursor turns into an hourglass - again good. But the postback doesn't happen - not good. I assume that the ASP client code is trying to preventing the postback when it sees that the link is disabled.
So, how can I either:
Persuade the LinkButton to postback even though it has just been disabled; or[probably better] Get my client code to execute immediately after the postback code rather than before.
I have a shopping basket on my site, and when the customer gets to the final page I don't won't them to be able to go back i.e. use the back button on the explorer. I have seen it before on other web sites, it's like when you leave the page it 'times out'I am just not sure how that works.
I am also facing some issues with Back Button of Internet Browser as well. Actully Page Load event of my page is not firing when i click on Back Button of Internet.
i have one application that is deployed in IIS at Remote Desktop. if i access that application from local system i am getting "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage" and it is running fine in Remote Desktop but not in Local system.
The newdomain.com is trying to place cookies in the browser and IE dosent like that. I have no control over the application hosted on the newdomain.com. I have read a lot of articles which talk about having a P3P information added to the header of the page which hosts the iframe. So in my application's Global.asax I have the following code:
This works for Firefox and Chrome but I'm just presented with a blank screen in Internet Explorer. Why? (I've tried setting the "Content-Disposition" header. If I set it to "attachment" I am presented with the download dialog. If I set it to "inline", I just get a blank page like before. I want the wav file to play inline like here: [URL]
I am trying to write an app in asp for users that will run in the browser but not look like a browser so I want it to open without all the toolbars. So it should be just the Title bar then the page. We will create a shortcut to the page on the users desktops. Is there a way to do this?
I am currently write an ASP.NET WebApplication in Visual Studio 2010. My default browser is Firefox. If I start an WebApplication, the WebApplication starts up in the same instance of Firefox. How is it possible to avoid it? How do I configure Visual Studio that the WebApplicaton starts in an new instance of Internet Explorer?
I am currently building a web project in which I would like to allow the user to navigate using either the back/forward button I created or the back and forward buttons in Internet Explorer to navigate my project.
