I'm using vs2010, asp.net 4 webform.Is there anyway which i can update a code behind file (ascx.cs) file without compile the whole site.because i just want to debug some ascx.cs file, and compile a big whole site will cost 1 minutes at least.
View 1 RepliesHere's the source of a blank .acsx file I created called LogOnBox.
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="LogOnBox.ascx.cs" Inherits="ECommerce.Views.Shared.LogOnBox" %>
I want to drag some labels, and textboxes etc and give them style using a CSS file. How can I associate a CSS to an acsx file?
Compile and Publish Site - but i want to be able to update .HTM includes? I have a few pages that have JQUERY sliders and every onces in a while the client wants to update IMAGES, i thought it would be easy if i could access the .HTM file update code instead of doing a recompile! is this even possible? or am i doing it complety wrong?
View 2 RepliesI am currently displaying the date via the Eval method in an ASCX file:
Code:
<%#Eval("BirthDate") %>
However this appears as mm/dd/yyyy when I would like it to appear as dd/mm/yyyy. Is there a global setting where I can change the default date format or is there another way to change it directly in the user control ASCX file?
I'm building form validation controls for our C# ASP application. The bulk of the work is handled by a BaseValidator control (subclassing System.Web.UI.UserControl), which also has the markup for the validation output. This is then extended by subcontrols like PasswordValidator, that provides the Validate method and any extra fields needed by that validator control.
(The end goal is to have controls like <uc1:PasswordValidator ControlId="txtPassword" /> which we can plop into any form with minimum duplication.)
However, PasswordValidator.ascx.cs cannot access the form elements defined in BaseValidator.ascx; the only way I've found to do so is to duplicate the markup in each subcontrol's *.ascx file. How can I extend BaseValidator.ascx.cs and access BaseValidator.ascx's markup in the subclass?
Can the entire content area of a site be an update panel? I like the idea of the header and navigation not blinking when the content page changes.
Can this be done by putting an update panel as the first element of the content pages or having a update panel wrap the content placeholder in the master page?
I have a page called main.apsx and on that page I have a multiview with a couple of view panes. In main.aspx I also have an have a buttons.ascx file with a few link buttons. When these buttons are clicked I want them to show the the selected view panels in multiview in main.aspx.
I cant seem to figure out where to put the action code for the link buttons. Do I put it into my buttons.ascx.cs file or into main.aspx.cs? I presume in buttons.ascx.cs, but if I do that, how will the buttons find the multiview control?
This is the code for on of my buttons in buttons.ascx.cs

When I run it like this is gives an error
The name 'MultiView1' does not exist in the current
The name 'View1' does not exist in the current
I have a form in aASP User Control (.ascx) file. Maxlength does not work for the multiline textboxe hence it is generated as a textarea, which has no support for this attribute. I could maybe use some asp validation, to prevent submission of too much text, but I want to prevent it to be possible to even enter too many characters, just like is possible for single line textboxes... I don't know if the control has any onload event that I could use to add attributes to the textbox from code behind and and combined with javascript fix this or anything..
View 1 RepliesI have an aspx page with multiple modal popups. These modal popups are trigger in the page behind code using .Show() and .Hide().
This is what I have in the .aspx page for the particular modal popup under discussion:
[Code]....
The example below demonstrates the type of calls I am making to the modal popup extenders. Basically using the Datalist item command, the datalist commands are responsible for triggering my modal popups.
[Code]....
They all work fine after postbacks except the "activityReport" case (the last one). The only difference with this modal popup is that it contains a user control and all the postbacks are happening in the user control. So the problem is that in the last case whenever a postback happens in the user control then the modal popup is close.
1. If I separate the modal popup and place it in a page all by itself and trigger it to .Show() through a button click in the page behind code then the modal popup doesn't close. See below example.

2. The button click event in the test page looks as follow:

But this seems to be the exact way inline code should be added, at least according to this MS help file:

I'm using an asp.net user control with a tree view. When I load the page I want to scrool the user control to the selected node in the tree view. I'm using js function .ScrollIntoView(true). But this is scrolling the entire page (not only what is inside the user control)
here's my code
[code]...
How can I keep the parent page scroll position but continue to set user controll position where I want?
Okay, maybe it's a bit pedantic, but do ASP.NET user controls HAVE to have an ascx extension?
My reason for wanting to know this is purely academic. I made the statement to someone that they usually have an ascx extension, but then I had the curious thought of if that was always true or not.
i have two buttons, which point to some onclick-methods in my code-behind file. inside these btn_click-codes i want to start adding pure html-code to my page, which was told to me in this forum having done by using ascx-files. note: there would be no code-behind in case of using the ascx-files.
however i do not see a possibility to load these ascx-files within btn_click-code? how to do?
in order to give you an idea of my html-code i have pasted two of them here:

maybe this is the complete wrong approach (as i.e. i believe that body-tags should not be included in .ascx-code). in this - how to do better?
I'm trying to access a user control from my .vb code behind file. I am actually trying to access a button on that user control page.
View 7 RepliesI have a custom control in my mater page that represents a menu, let's call it CustomMenu. The control code files are located in a non special directory. I want to give each page that uses that master page the ability to access the control and, using a public property, tell the control whether or not it should render itself. I have a public property on the control to do that, and I know I can get the control by referencing Page.Master.FindControl('IdOfControlIwant');
The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to get the control Type recognized by the compiler, so when I do find the menu control, I can't actually work with it. The only way I can get the code behind to recognize the type is to register it in the ascx file, and then add at least one control to the page, which is undesirable.

View 2 RepliesI am working on a feature to throw a warning message if the user has unsaved values in a form. I can see that in the next post there is a explanation about how to do that [URL]now the problem is that i need to do the same but using a ascx control and i don't know where put the next code in my ascx control.

NB: I'm working on dnn so that i don't have any change to add this code in the parent page of the control.
I'm trying to reference a string from the web.config file from a ASCX user control, but I get the error message: [b]Compiler Error Message: BC30203: Identifier expected.

how I can expose user control custom property at its code-behind file.
I've got an ASP.NET 3.5 Web Forms application in which a large chunk of code needs to be duplicated between a few different pages. Sounds like the ideal candidate for a user-control right? Problem is, this cannot be contained within a <form runat="server"> because it contains a client-side form of it's own. There are no runat=server controls or postbacks or anything that really need that webform - think of it just as a chunk of HTML with a few basic <% %> tags. I'd just want to set a property on the control when it's loaded, so that it knows what to output. This is purely an exercise to make the code easier to maintain.Before I resort to using an oldskool <!--#include-->, is there some better way of doing this?
View 5 RepliesI am having difficulties how to construct my question, but if I have to put it simply the situation is that I have categories of products. I have an aspx with a repeater on the left that lists the categories. And I want the products to be listed on the right. Category number is variable so I made an ascx with a DataList in it. When I try to do foreach category, ascx = new ascx(); then the DataList within this ascx control is null.
ps: what I want to do is to preload all the products (thre is not much) and hide the divs and fadein fadeout them using jQuery when a category div is clicked.
rightnow it is using jQuery.load(); and I don't like how the images load, cuz they download from top to bottom. Progressive gifs alsdo not an option. site demo is here [URL]

how to fill it rom database and where i put soure code
I have 2 sites on IIS, one is the live site and the other is a site that is only started when there is maintenance being carried out on the live site.In a deployment scenario I STOP the live site and the START the maintenance site so that users receive a friendly message advising of the upgrade.he only issue I have is when I start up the live site it obviously has to JIT and this can take up to 3 minutes.Is there anyway to have this JIT before I unleash it to the users?EDIT: Just to clarify, this site is a CMS, so the marked answer below works for me due to only having 1 page to compile.
View 4 RepliesWe have a website intended for students to enter their project information. The website will have 6 modules and each module will have about 7-8 webpages to enter data.
Now the client want to get a report of the project. Now we have about 6 modules and hence the total pages will come around 40. We developed a crystal report for showing this . It had around 60-70 subreports since we have around 40 pages!!!!and it was a painful way to create the report. Also the report took a lot of time to load....
We did it like this.... For each page a subreport... and we fill a dataset in the aspx page and assign it.... phew it was a bit of crazy stuff!!! at the end there were too datasets and the page went to database several times!!
