Jquery - Quick Way To Pretty Up A Totally Unstyled Application?
Mar 5, 2010
I have an asp.net app consisting of about 15 aspx pages and 30 or so user controls. For the most part it is just a basic CRUD layer on top of a database, so it consists mainly of edit forms and datagrids.
All of my edit forms are laid out in fieldsets, and I am using plain asp:GridViews for my tables (they render to an html table). Some forms are in serious need of tabs to lay out the elements. I'd really like to be able to style my GridViews with a fixed header and vertical scrollbars.
I have to do a demo in a few days but the problem is, there is no styling whatsoever applied to the html (no classes defined within the html, no CSS at all), and I am very weak with CSS.
So considering my predicament, can anyone offer some advice on how I could get this looking presentable in a very short period of time?
Is there such a thing as pre-existing decent generic CSS files I could download and drop on top of this app that could apply an attractive and consistent look and feel to most elements? Would http://jqueryui.com/ be useful in this particular situation?[URL] looks very attractive, can anyone comment on how easy it would be to globally wire all of my GridViews up with that?

I have been using asp.net programming just from few months and I have to maintain an application that is made up of many aspx webforms with updatepanels.One of the task of the maintenance is to integrate some of the JQueryUI widgets (mostly datepicker, tabs and buttons).I am experiencing some problems on doing this smoothly expecially when the controls are Inside an update panel Generally inside any templated control (e.g. Wizard control)
For example this very simple code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#myTabs").tabs();
[code]...
will immediately cease to work if placed inside an update panel.Do there is a solution regarding this issue or I have to follow a completely differnt approach? Do I have to substitute all the updatepanels?And what is the best alternative to this easy to use control?

I am using jquery quicksearch to filter a gridview. As i enter the search text in a text box the column width of the body of the gridview keeps changing and does not align with the header width for the respective column. How do I lock the column width of the gridvew so it remains unchanged?

I made a usercontrol consisting of an AJAX tab control, a textbox, and a gridview. The gridview is pulling data from a SQL database. When the gridview is outside of the tab control and I begin to enter text into the textbox, quicksearch begins to filter the information in the gridview. When i put the gridview and textbox inside an AJAX tab control quicksearch does not work. How do i need to structure the textbox and the gridview on an ajax update panel to get it to work?

I have a problem on adding a webpart to sharepoint page.
I have a blank page in the sharepoint, and I have a custom control uploaded to the site, on adding the webpart the the sharepoint page I get the following error:
"Attempted to use an object that has ceased to exist. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80030102 (STG_E_REVERTED))"
I get that error even if the sharepoint page is totally blank and so is the web part.

How do i get the pretty URL with an ASPX pages. I have listed a couple links below and their associated print page url. As you can see it resembles the Class instantiation method of declaring object but is used for a webpage with its extension.
I was wondering if this method can be used or if this is a URL rewrite to mask all the querystrings and sub directories being referenced. I remember doing stuff like this when i was working on a UNIX system using the .htaccess file to mask effective query
string being shown. I believe they called it a Clean URL, i maybe wrong as it has been well over 8 years since i dealt with the Unix .htaccess file and massaging urls with it.
For instance, look at the MSDN site pages:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.actionnotsupportedexception.aspx
Now when you want to print it:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.actionnotsupportedexception(printer).aspx
Now you select the same page but choose a different framework than its birth:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.actionnotsupportedexception(VS.100).aspx
and the print URL:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.actionnotsupportedexception(VS.100,printer).aspx
As you can see they are not visually passing query strings but more like Class parameters. Is this just a simple URL rewrite after the page is loaded so the user doesnt see the query string information?

I'm exporting a PDF report from Crystal Reports bundled with VS2008. I need to display non-standard fractions so that they look nice instead of just something like 26/32. I have turned html interpretation on for the field so ½ and other standard html entities display nicely, however, because CR does not understand <sup> and <sub? I cannot format non-standard fractions to look pretty.

I have a class Person that represents a person in my database. This class has a CategoryId property (int) and a Category property (type Category).
Category is a class that represents a category in my database. csharp Code:
public class Person{ public int Id {get; set;} public string Firstname {get; set;} public string Lastname {get; set;} public int CategoryId {get; set;} public Category Category {get; set;}} public class Category{ public int Id {get; set;} public string CategoryName {get; set;}}
[code]....
I am displaying a list of these Persons in a GridView, and I would like to display the name of the Category (the CategoryName property to be precise). So I define this markup;
xml Code:
<asp:GridView runat="server" ID="personsGrid" AutoGenerateSelectButton="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="Id"> <Columns> <asp:BoundField DataField="Id" HeaderText="Id" /> <asp:BoundField
Usually I would solve this problem by one of two ways:Override the ToString method of the Category class and return the name.
Add a readonly 'CategoryName' property to the Person class, where I return 'this.Category.CategoryName' (and then bind the column to this property instead).
In this case however, I am using the Entity Framework, and the Person and Category classes are automatically generated by the database model. I suppose I could edit the generated code manually, but I don't like that, since any change in the model will cause VS to re-generate the code and my changes would be lost. So these two methods are not going to work...
The simple question remains: how do I make the Category column show the CategoryName property of the object it represents, rather than just the type name?In a DropdownList for example (which I am already using for the user to select a category when creating a person), I can set the DataTextField (to "CategoryName") and DataValueField (to "Id") properties and it displays the right name and uses the right value (the Id). I can't find anything similar for a BoundField though... Am I overlooking something obvious?
Another solution would be if I could tell the Entity Framework model to add another property to my Person class which returns the CategoryName of the Category. I can't find any way to do that though (I am a compleet noob in EF),

we have a program that we work with with in 2 different locations, both of the program instances must share the same database.what i did is to open Web Sharing folder on our server then i added on both computers this folder to their "My network places" and direct both of application to this folder which contains the database.this is how i direct the program :
Code:
D:WNKKWnkk.exe \MyServerktest
nk2008
it all works fine but there is one problem, the data pulling is pretty slow when it shouldn't we have 100MB download / upload on our server and over 10MB dl/ul in our office.
some pointers:i added the shared web folder to one of our website directory and thats mean that the port the program is using is 80
is port 80 is slower then others?

I'm doing a contract for asp.net. The owner wants it done in 2 - 3 months.Would it be worth it starting him in MVC and could I get it completed in time? It's a web page with a few modal popup extenders and about 3 grids.Is it possible to get it done with the boss very happy or should I write old web forms, and just write it clearly so it can be upgraded later?I can't miss a deadline and even though I love MVC, I kinda think I should wait until the first project is done cleanly. I haven't made an actual ASP.NET MVC app yet.

I have a listbox on my site that is populated with data. I then have a textbox that is used to enter a search phrase and with each letter that is added the listbox is narrowed down or repopulated using javascript. I use one listbox to store all the items and a secondary showing the listing results. This makes it east to check against all items and then populate the second listbox with all the results according to the search.
Currently this process can cause a delay in updating the listbox (eg when the textbox is emptied all the items need to be repopulated from the listbox with all the data).
What is a quick and efficient way to perform this listbox search?

I've done my homework, I've read a lot of articles, I searched and searched but still couldn't find my answer and it's kind of getting on my nerves because there's a very popular question all over the blogs and websites and it's just the same as mine, the difference is the answer is not what I want!
To be clear, the two pages are only logically related in other words the values in my FirstPage.Aspx pass values to my SecondPage.Aspx so it control components and certain attributes of the controls in my SecondPage.Aspx, the SecondPage.Aspx is not a redirect or transfer from FirstPage.Asp.
Consider the firstPage contains a textBox which get a value from the user or the web admin to set his preferences about the gridView page size on the SecondPage or a Text property of a label on the SecondPage
I want to explore my options to do so
PS: I was told to use a database to store values from the first page then on the page with my Label for example I connect to the database and retrieve the value and set it to the label...is this a best practice to let the page connect every time it loads to set some values somtimes it's just an int like 5, and most of the time I'd be connecting already to the database to display some table's data in a gridView or any databound control!

I have this setting in web config for session.
[Code]....
On localhost works well. On the hosting server expires very quickly. Sometimes after a minute, and sometimes after a few minutes.
I tried mode="StateServer" and mode="SQLServer", but first works the same, other doesn't work. The next problem is that End_Session in global.asax doesn't executes if mode is not InProc. And I need this.
How could I achive that session expires only when browser is closed or other url is typed. Just setting timeout doesn't work.

Well, i know the title isn't very specific, but i couldn't find a better succint description of what i'm looking for.i want to have a default.aspx so that when a user types:
http://www.mydomain.com/randomstring
i can use the randomstring to query a table on page load. More specific:
. I will be importing batches of users to my database through a csv file.
. in that process, a random string will be generated
. i will send that url to each user by email
. when the user clicks through that link, i want my aspx(c#) to interpret that string, query a table that gives me a second url, this one with querystring, and Redirects the user to that second address

What solution is better?
- For server load.
- For quick loading pages
1) Use a timer from VS2008, set the timer for three seconds.Use UpdatePanel and Triggers.In Timer_Tick write code for the application.
2) Create a WebMethod, where to write the application code.And using javascript to load a Web method and use - window.setInterval (callMethod () ', 3000).

I am using a cms product that likes to cache every page so that you get quick response times. The downside of that is that pages can get stale. My question is: are there different caches per user? Does asp.net keep track of caches on a per user per site basis? That's what is seems like to me, but I can't seem to find it documented anywhere. With this cms, they have a load of hashtables keeping tabs on the modified pages. If you clear out the cache, log out, and log back in again as another user, you still have stale information. The only way to get the information to be current for all users is to recycle the app pool, which is something you don't want to do too often ( kinda like pulling the emergency brake on the train ).
