  - validation not working properlyHello all,
    I have a control that I am building that adds two validation controls to the
    control heirarchy like so:
    [code]
    'setup and register client-side validation
    If Not Page.IsClientScriptBlockRegistered(Me.ID.ToString &
    "_ValidationClientScript") Then
    Dim js As New System.Text.StringBuilder
    js.Append("<script language=""vbscript"">" & vbCrLf)
    js.Append("" & vbCrLf)
    js.Append("</script>" & vbCrLf)
    Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Me.ID.ToString & "_ValidationClientScript",
    js.ToString)
    js = Nothing
    End If
    val.EnableClientScript = _enableclientscript
    val.Display = ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic
    val.ErrorMessage = _errormsg
    val.ControlToValidate = txt.ID.ToString
    val.ID = "validator"
    
    val1.ClientValidationFunction = Me.ID.ToString & "_ClientValidate"
    val1.ControlToValidate = txt.ID.ToString
    val1.Display = ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic
    val1.EnableClientScript = _enableclientscript
    val1.ErrorMessage = "Invalid Format!"
    AddHandler val1.ServerValidate, AddressOf ServerValidate
    Me.Controls.Add(val1)
    Me.Controls.Add(val)
    [/code]
    
    Now everything works fine when I try to post the data except that after the
    post is done I get the "Invalid Format!" error message. The information
    posted fine and if I try to put in an invalid format the validation works
    fine. The problem just seems to be after the post and the building of the
    page and I am not sure why. Anyone know a possible reason why it would be
    checking the validation again? Of course if I don't clear the textbox that
    it is validating and leave the properly formatted value in it I still get
    that same error and yet I can just keep submitting the form and since the
    control is actually valid the form is posted.

  - Can images be saved to Session State and retrieved?Hello -
    
    I have images saved in my SQL SERVER 2000 database. Using ASP.NET (C#) is
    there any way to temporarily save an image to a session object, and after
    running some other operations, later retrieve the image from the session
    object, convert it back to an image, and re-save it to the database?
    
    Thanks?

  - How to open a word document saved in sql server in asp.netHi All
    
    I've saved a word document in sql server database.I'm able to retrieve
    it from the database and open it in a word application.
    My problem is as i have to use this in an intranet application, the
    word is not opening in a client machine but it is opening on the
    machine the application has been hosted.
    
    I'm extracting the word file from database and storing it on the hard
    disk and in the next instance passing the file location to the shell
    command and opening it.
    
    please try to solve my problem asap.

  - Runs on development machine, not on server?If you're using **impersonation**...then you need to give that temporary
    directory the priv's. to the impersonation account (not the IUSR_ account).
    
    That's where I ran into this issue.
    
    Please post if this addresses your issue.

  - wsdl from .NET asmxHi,
    
    I want to generate an wsdl document from an .asmx.
    I want to create an wsdl froma an .NET asmx using the syntax:
    http://localhost/Service/Service.asmx?wsdl
    
    This generates an wsdl document.
    The problem is that the generated document for the same webservice is
    different.
    On some machines running XP(SP2) and Win 2003 server the tags look like
    this
    <definitions....
    <types>
    ............
    but on a machine with win Xp SP1
    
    <wsdl:definitions.....
    <wsdl:types>
    .............
    
    all the machines have IIS 5.1.
    
    My question is why on some computers there is an " wsdl: " in the tag and
    on others only simple tags and how can I change this.
    
    Thanks.

  - dynamic themes on the flyI have a C# web app ... just playing around with master pages, themes
    and skins.
    I have read Scott's article:
    http://odetocode.com/Blogs/scott/archive/2005/12/09/2604.aspx
    
    Still not really clear for me.
    
    How can I apply a theme for a master page design app other than static
    in web config:
    
    <system.web>
    <pages theme="trucknews" />
    </system.web>
    
    I need to make sure all the website pages will get the theme I specify.
    So it's about using PreInit event which a master page doesn't have it
    and which is the good way of setting a theme dynamically.
    
    Am I right saying that one cannot actually apply a theme to a master
    page but to every page using that master page one by one ???? If so, we
    should have a base class which will implement the PreInit event and all
    the pages will inherit that page so we dont need to write the PreInit
    event on each one of these pages. If I am right so far ... who knows
    ... back to my initial question how could I set the theme dynamic ?
    
    I mean ok, I have a base class B and all my pages inherit B. The B
    class is implementing PreInit event where I specify the theme but isn't
    this static also?
    
    Forgive my confusion. Thanks.

    The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be
    shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the
    below steps, then request the URL:
    
    1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated
    the error. Example:
    
    <%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %>
    
    or:
    
    2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your
    application:
    
    <configuration>
    <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true"/>
    </system.web>
    </configuration>
    
    Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given
    application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause
    only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.
    
    Important: Running applications in debug mode does incur a
    memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an application has
    debugging disabled before deploying into production scenario.

  - Custom Validator not working without RequiredValidatorHi there,
    
    I have written a custom validator function to validate a date from a user-filled field. The function tries to parse the date and if it can't, sets (serverValidateEventArgs)e.IsValid to false.
    
    The twist is that it allows blank dates to be entered - viz, e.IsValid==true if the field is left blank. The idea is to use that validation control to make sure the date a user has entered is valid, without the date field being required to complete the form.
    
    The problem is that this doesn't work - although the CustomValidator itself does not show an error message when the field is left blank, the ValidationSummary does show the error message, and Page.IsValid==false. The most troubling is that I added some logging code to the validation function which doesn't seem to get called, suggesting that the validation function doesn't actully get called...
    
    The validation function is as follows:
    
    ----------------
    
    public static void ValidateShortDate(object sender, ServerValidateEventArgs e)
    {
    logger.Debug("Trying to validate a date");
    if(StringUtil.IsEmpty(e.Value))
    {
    e.IsValid=true;
    logger.Debug("Date to validate is empty, returning valid=true");
    return;
    }
    
    DateTime dt = DateTime.MinValue;
    try
    {
    dt = DateTime.ParseExact(e.Value.Trim(), "d", CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
    e.IsValid = false;
    logger.Debug("Error parsing date to validate, returning valid=false", ex);
    return;
    }
    if (dt.Equals(DateTime.MinValue))
    {
    e.IsValid = false;
    logger.Debug("Date to validate==DateTime.MinValue, returning valid=false");
    return;
    }
    logger.Debug("Date to validate is valid ("+dt+"), returning valid=true");
    e.IsValid = true;
    }
    
    ----------------
    
    and in the aspx page:
    
    <asp:TextBox runat="server" id="_dateOfBirthCalendar" />
    
    <asp:CustomValidator ID="_dateOfBirthValidator" ControlToValidate="_dateOfBirthCalendar"
    Runat="server" ErrorMessage="Please enter a valid birth date" />
    
    ----------------
    
    I replaced a custom control by the TextBox in this example.
    
    Note that uncommenting the RequireValidator, the code performs as expected (ie an error messgage appears both next to the field and in the ValidatorSummary)
    
    Any help greatly appreciated.

  - Editing/Deleting/Inserting Records using ASPxGridViewI'm using Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005, and I've created an
    AJAXenabled ASPx.Net Website. In one of my SQL Server tables, I have Social
    Security Number as my PrimaryKey, and I'm using this field as a Seach
    parameter in my WebForm. My question is this ... Is it necessary to display
    the PrimaryKey in the ASPxGridView in order for you to be able to
    Edit/Update a record? When I include the PrimaryKey field in the
    ASPxGridView, I can Edit/Delete records, but if I don't include the
    PrimaryKey (or set it to Visible=False) then I can't Edit/Delete records.
    
    Thanks in advance for any advice/assistance offered.

  - crystal report viewer page widthMy customer would like for the page to display with a wider data area.
    As it is, it only shows the data running about 3/4 the way across the
    browser. He would like it to reach further across b/c it does not
    accomodate all of his attributes he wants to show. He wants them lined
    up from left to right, but some get chopped off.
    Is there anything I can do here, or is this just a limitation with it??

dotnet-framework-aspnet, ASP.NET test server - how to configure IIS? Okay, I'm ready to start learning ASP.NET. I'd like to start by setting up
a test server - so I can FTP my code to it from my development workstation.
Can anyone point me to a good tutorial or step-by-step instructions on how
to configure IIS for this purpose? I have the Windows 2003 server up and
running with IIS, but not sure about how to set up user, ftp perms, dir
structure, etc...

Thanks in advance.

  - Problem with composite webcontrol - Any suggestions for a newbie?Scenario:
    
    Want to create a datagrid, in which each cell is populated by an
    image(each image different), and a checkbox. Language: C#
    
    I want my datagrid to end up 5 rows across. (I'm choosing the
    Datagrid, since it's pageable - if I could have a pageable HTML table,
    I'd go there even)
    
    It seems that I want to create a composite control which has an image
    and a checkbox, and then use it on a page that creates a datagrid,
    which pulls data and populates values into each of the to sub controls
    in each cell.
    
    Is this correct? If so, I have NO idea how to go about this.
    
    1. How do I create the composite control
    2. How do I get to use it on my other page?
    3. How do I populate and display correctly in a DataGrid?
    
    Thanks!

  - Why is no one answering my queries..Hi,
    
    I have a datalist control and within the Itemplate I
    have a radiobuttonlist control . I am binding data to the
    datalist control in Page_load . Also I have sqldatareader
    object that needs to be binded to the radiobutton list. I
    am not able to bind the datareader to the radiobuttonlist
    control as it is within the Itemtemplate. I am new
    to .Net. Could someone please let me know what I should be
    doing to bind the data to the radiobuttonlist within the
    Itemtemplate.
    When I try binding it, I get the following error:
    
    System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to
    an instance of an object.

  - what is Request.ServerVariablesHi,
    
    I just came across the HttpRequest.ServerVaraibles collection which the
    documentation helpfully explains contains "a collection of server variables"
    
    What on earth is a server variable? where do these variables come from? what
    variables can I expect to be present? what do they mean? I can't find any
    documentation in MSDN at all.
    
    TIA

  - Problem passing custom object between formsI'm trying to pass a custom object back and forth between forms.
    This custom object is pulled into the app using an external reference
    to an assembly DLL that was given to me by a co-worker. A query-string
    flag is used to indicate to the page whether it should instantiate
    a new instance of the object or access an existing instance from
    the calling page.
    
    On the both pages I have a property of the page which is an
    instance of this custom object. I also have a public get accessor
    in the page. When a button is clicked I use Server.Transfer to
    jump to the other page.
    
    When each page is loaded I look for a query-string to determine
    if this page was loaded by the user directly (query-string not
    found) or if it was the result of a transfer from the other page
    (query-string found). I create an instance of the sending page using
    the Context.Handler and assign a local variable of my custom
    object type using the get accessor of the sending page.
    
    Unfortunately this isn't working. When I try to access the
    custom object I just get "Undefined Value". I can transfer string data
    from one form to the next just fine but the custom object does not
    work.
    
    Any ideas? Here's my code.
    
    public class WebForm1: System.Web.UI.Page
    {
    protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button send;
    protected MyNamespace.MyObject obj;

    {

    return obj;
    }
    }
    
    public string Test
    {
    get
    {
    return test;
    }
    }
    
    private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
    {
    if (!this.IsPostBack)
    {
    string sTransfer = Request.QueryString["transfer"];
    if (sTransfer == "true")
    {
    //We were transferred here from WebForm2
    //Extract WebForm2's object
    WebForm2 wf2;
    wf2 = (WebForm2)Context.Handler;
    obj = wf2.Object;
    
    //extract WebForm2's string
    test = wf2.Test;
    }
    else
    {
    //this is the initial page load,
    //not a transfer from WebForm2
    obj = new MyNamespace.MyObject("data");
    
    //Assign test string a value
    test = "test assigned by WebForm1";
    }
    }
    
    }

    I'm trying to build a page in asp.net that lists employees from a db. And I
    was wondering if you could help me translate this asp to asp.net and with a
    datagrid. can't figure it out with all if's and so
    
    .... open db and stuff
    
    <table>
    <%
    while not rs.eof then
    %>
    <tr>
    <%
    if trim(rs("info"))<>"" then
    %>
    <td colspan=2><a
    href='read_more.asp?employeeid=<%=rs("employeeid")%>'><%=rs("firstname")%>
    <%=rs("lastname")%></td>
    <%
    else
    %>
    <td colspan=2><%=rs("firstname")%> <%=rs("lastname")%></td>
    <%
    end if
    %>
    <%
    if rs("employeepicture")<>"" then
    %>
    <td valign='top'><img src='../pics/<%=rs("employeepicture")%>'></td>
    <td valign='top'><%=replace(rs("sometext"),vbcrlf,"<br>")%></td>
    <%

  - The page is opened in the wrong target windowI have the following code attached to an ImageButton which opens a page
    in a new window:
    
    ImageButton2.OnClientClick =
    "document.forms[0].target='page3';document.forms[0].action='Invoice_create.aspx';"
    
    The problem is that when I click a button or a link in the original
    window after that everything is opened in a new window not in the
    original target window. It looks like I have to reset this somehow
    after running the code above.
    
    Is there a solution to this?

  - Create project on networked computerHi,
    
    On my development machine I have vs.net installed and I am able to
    create a web application project No problem, this is located at
    http://localhost which I am guessing is the default.
    we have a number of other windows servers on the network all running
    IIS (some 5.0, others 6.0) however when creating a project from my local
    machine, I wish the project to be located on one of the networked servers.
    However VS.net will not let me create then project on the networked server.
    
    for example I can access the networked server though the URL
    
    http://Pluto/web/default.html
    
    however when creating the project and I am presented with the dialog to
    specify a location for the project, if I type
    
    http://pluto/
    
    then I am told that VS is not set up for this and do I want to use frontpage
    extensions -- definatlly not..
    
    I am guessing that the account that creates the project on my local machine
    does not have access to do it on the networked machine.
    trouble is I don't know what account it is or indeed if this is the problem.
    
    could somebody help me out ot point me to relavant links.
    
    any help is appreciated.
    
    cheers

  - Web service with open db connectionHi all
    
    ASP.Net v2.0.
    
    I have a web service that holds an "open" OleDb connection in one of its
    session variables, when the session times out does this connection close, or
    does it only close when another request comes through after the timeout?
    
    Hope that makes sense.
    
    Thanks

  - Enterprise Library Configuration setting!Hi,
    I am developing web application on 3 tier model. For data access my Data
    Access Layer (DAL) uses MS Enterprise Library (MSEL). If I am right MSEL
    relies on web.config file for the connection strings. I need to make the DAL
    totally independent ie I want to save the connection string information in a
    App.config file inside the DAL project (a class library project).
    
    How can I make MSEL to use App.Config in DAL for connection string instead
    of Web.Config in ASP.Net application??
    
    The reason I want to do this is that I have .Net windows service which need
    to use the DAL independently of the application.

  - asp.net total number of sessions open for an applicationHi,
    
    Is it possible using asp.net to see how many people are using a certain web
    application. For example I have an application where 20+ users can log in
    and use. Is it possible using C#.net to see how many sessions are open for
    a particular application?

  - Runtime Datagrids and checkbox selectionsHi,
    I am stuck at a problem for 3 days now. I create runtime datagrids
    depending on the user selections and they may vary from 2-10 depending
    on user selection at runtime. The datagrids are created in a loop at
    runtime and I assign IDs as DG0, DG1...and so on in the loop itself.
    The datagrid has a template column created at runtime with checkboxes.
    They may vary from 3-7 varying from datagrid to datagrid. Once that is
    done and i have been able to do it, the user further selects some
    checkboxes and these values need to be used for further data
    generation. Now my problem is -
    In a normal datagrid (non-runtime), I can check the checkbox selection
    using the ID of the datagrid. But in my case, I dont have a datagrid
    ID until runtime. How can I then write a procedure to see what all
    user selections has been made.
    Please help!!! I am going crazy!

  - DataValueField - postbackI haven't been able to find any posts about this problem.
    When I set the DataValueField to be something, the control
    loses it's selected index when returning from the
    postback. If I set only the DataTextField I have no
    problems.
    
    I set the DataTextField and DataValueFields like so:
    
    ddlBU.DataTextField="BU"; -- each value is unique
    ddlBU.DataValueField = "ORG_ID"; -- is 1 of 2 values
    
    It seems that the because Org_Id is not unique in the
    dataset it is screwing up the index of the control by
    setting the SelectedIndex to be the first ListItem it
    finds with a DataValueField matching that of the
    originally selected item.
    
    Anyone know of a work around ?
