Sql - Pound Signs (£) Disappearing From Strings?
Jul 22, 2010
I'm usually a LAMP developer, but some .NET work has arrived on my plate and I'm a bit stumped.
If I run the following code:
<% poundsign = "£" %>
<% Response.Write poundsign %>
<% Response.Write "£" %>
... nothing is displayed. However, outside of the <% %> tags (ie in the HTML) £ displays correctly.
I have no trouble displaying the usual alphanumerics, it's just the £ sign that is proving problematic. The underlying file is in Windows 1252 encoding, and I need to serve it as such. If I save the file as UTF-8, I get mojibake instead of a £.
what I can do to make this work, or any settings that might be preventing it from working (other than saving the file in a different format)?

I have a string that I'm pulling from an Excel spreadsheet that is x.firstName
When I pull it in it gets converted to x#FirstName
Fine. So I tried string.replace as shown below and it change my string.
here's my code:
string
stFormattedColumnName = objDataset1.Tables[0].Columns[i].ToString().ToLower();
//value is x#firstName
stFormattedColumnName.Replace('#',
'.');
//value is still x#firstName

I need to show items like in below image.
I'm using this code to bind dropdownlist.
var options = (from option in _serviceOptions
select new
{
OptionId = option.OptionId,
OptionText = option.OptionText + " - " + option.Price + "£/month"
}).ToList();
myDdl.DataSource = options;
myDdl.DataValueField = "OptionId";
myDdl.DataTextField = "OptionText";
myDdl.DataBind();
_serviceOptions is the resultset returned by calling stored procedure using L2S
The problem is, it is again encoding the & to & before rendering to the browser.

I'm facing a problem that Google couldn't solve yet!I'm trying to store URLs in an XML file. Problem is that these URLs contain Equal Signs (=) in them. And that generates an error.Here is my code: (**token is a variable that contains the URL)
Dim child As String = vbCrLf & "<Link URL='" & token & "'></Link>"
Dim fragment As XmlDocumentFragment = doc.CreateDocumentFragment
fragment.InnerXml = child
The error message: (Error line and position are meaningless here) '=' is an unexpected token. The expected token is ';'. Line 2, position 133.I've replaced all '&' symbols with '&' in case they were the ones causing the error, but no luck so far.

Is there a way to be able to create a new database when a company signs up to my site, and be able to use that database when he/she logs in, so for example if company A logs in he uses CompanyA database and if company B logs in he uses Company B database, now they all have the same table structure, just need to figure out a way to use a specific database depending on the user that logs in.

I am building a social networking site for employees and where an employee can sign up and create a profile and enter job employment history, interests etc. into text boxs and a aspx. page will be created showing all their details. Then in a data grid a preview of their profile would be shown allowing a user to click on that field which would direct them to that persons profile.
I am finding it hard to find information on how to automatically create a profile for each user that signs up.

Using ASP .Net 4.0,Entity Framework and EntityDataSource.
I have some currency fields that are defined as Decimal. I would like to allow the user to enter a (leading) dollar sign in these (TextBox form fields). Although, when the EntityDataSource goes to save the changes to the datbase, it throws:
Error while setting property 'QuotedMaterial': 'Cannot convert the value of parameter 'QuotedMaterial' to the type 'System.Decimal'.'.
Does anyone know how I can "tell" the EF to allow dollar signs and convert (drop) them accordingly? I am trying to avoid creating my own Data or Business Logic layer for this particular application. I would like to stick with the EntityDataSource and other
"built in" controls to minimize the C# code behind as much as possible.
I guess my only alternative is to deny $ (Dollar Signs) (and commas too for that mater, it doesn't like them either). The problem is I am porting a legacy application and I would like to keep it as close to the original as possible (and they are currently
allowed to enter dollar signs in this application). You see, they use copy/paste for data entry quote often on this particular form and it just so happens that the source data (they are copy/pasting from) always has a $ in it...

I have an ASP.NET website in which the user has the Login/Logout functionality. There are some pages which are viewable only if the user is logged in. Now, after the user signs out, I noticed that the user is still able to see this restricted page on pressing the back button. I want to create the functionality such that once the user signs out, the page should not be viewable. How can that be done?
P.S I am not using built in Login controls in ASP.NET

I seem to be having some challenges with the data I am retriveing from a Webpage using the Webclient class. The code works fine, however I observe that the regular expression is not picking up the negative or positive sign in the Daily_Movement data. For example, a daily movement can be -0.31 or +0.31 but the code is not picking the sign in front of the decimal values.Here is my code
[Code]....
I think where the problem lies is the part of the code Regex r1 = new Regex("<span class="quoteData">.*</span>"); It picks up the values between the tag quite well, but not the signs in front of it. [Code]....

The first time the page is requested, it displays the gridview with the data. But when I click on the button, the gridview disappears (and only the button shows up). When I comment out the code: int x = GridView1.Rows.Count; in the Page_Init(), the gridview does NOT disappear. Why is that one line of code causing it to disappear?

In our site we are having a peculiar problem with SSL green bar. When we load the page SSL Green bar is showing up in the URL as usual but it diseappears after one second. I checked the view source and all the images are pointing to https only. I could't understand exactly what is causing the disappearing of Green SSL bar from the URL. Is there any thing that I need to check?

I am developing a C# VS2008/SQL Server 2005 Express website application. I'm a newbie to ASP.NET. I am using one of the database files in my App_Data folder. Also, I am trying to implement Security into this solution.
Everything works fine until I click on the Submit button. I traced through the code but didn't see why my Hashtable was changing to null.
Possible causes I've thought of:
currently some of my methods are protected, some are privateI have no Page_Load method defined in the DataMatch.aspx.cs file. Instead I have a Page_Init method. I have included most of this DataMatch.aspx.cs file--hopefully this will give you enough info.
ddl_ht is the hash table that is getting set to null after it enters the btnSubmit_Click method.
I am also including my DataMatch.aspx code now also.
DataMatch.aspx.cs file:
public partial class DataMatch : System.Web.UI.Page
{
string targettable = "";
DropDownList ddl = new DropDownList();

I use shared hosting. I have set my page to be cached indefinitely. The page gets cached after the first request. However on the next day when I visit my site it is no longer in the cache and has to be regenerated.
What is happening? Is the hosting removing my pages from the cache? Or something else?

I have a GridView (insde a UpdatePanel with a Timer control) which is refreshed every 3 seconds and one of its fields (a TextBox) is "linked" to a HoverMenuExtender. It works great to display the Multline Textbox results but when the next refresh timer intervalcomes the TextBox control is re-populated with the new data and the user does not have the time to read its content.I am not sure if there is a way to maintain the content after each refresh (as long as I don't move the mouse of course).ere is part of my code:

I have a tabcontainer with three panels. Initially the second tab is not enabled. I have a button in the first panel which when clicked, enables the second tab and changes the focus to it via the code-behind (requires a post back but that is desirable, since I shall put business logic there).
Works perfectly well.. but if I repeatedly keep clicking the next and the disable buttons.. once in a while the entire page disappears.. i.e I get a blank browser screen (IE6 and Chrome) and in FF the second tab doesn't become disabled at all.

I have developed an ASP.net project with VB.net and SQL Server 2008.
I have used session variable to store the user id while user login to the system.
The declaration is as follows:
Session("user_id") =txt_user.text
On the first page after login I have displaying the name using this Session value. And the menu also displaying according to the session value.
The code I am retreiving the value is,
dim user_name as string
user_name=Session("user_id")
On my development system everything working fine.
But when I implement the system to live server, the session value is not getting even for the first time.
I don't think this is problem with the code. This is some thing esle..
The implemented computer have Windows XP professional operating system and SQL Server 2008 Express edition datbase.
I have installed framework v2.0 and theIIS version is 5.1
