PleaseWaitButton ASP.NET Server Control

An approach to displaying a "please wait" message/animated gif following a button click using encapsulated client-side JavaScript.

It is often useful upon a form submission in a web application to display a "please wait" message, or animated .gif image, particularly if the submission process lasts a few seconds or more. I recently developed a survey submission application in which internal users upload excel spreadsheets through a web page. The application inserts the uploaded data from the spreadsheets into a database. The upload/insert process may only take a few seconds, but even a few seconds on the web is a noticeable wait. When testing, some users clicked the upload button repeatedly; it was useful to provide a visual clue that the upload was underway. For that matter, it was useful to hide the upload button altogether, preventing multiple clicks. The control presented here, a subclass of the Button control, demonstrates how client-side JavaScript code encapsulated in an ASP.NET server control can provide such functionality conveniently.

Creating Charts with WebChart Control

  
Charts and graphs always attract more users to the website. Displaying statistical data in the form of graphs gives more meaning to the data. There are tons of third party controls that can be used to create impressive charts but almost all of them come with a price. In this article I will introduce a very simple charting control, WebChart which allows the developer to create really cool looking graphs with only few lines of code. The best thing about this control is that it is totally free. The article will focus on creating the SmoothLineChart and the PieChart.

IIS Issues - Unable to start debugging on the web server. The underlying connection was closed. The connection was closed unexpectedly.

  

All of the sudden I'm getting the following error on my local web server (Win7 64bit, IIS 7.5).  I've uninstalled & reinstalled IIS locally and it didn't fix it.  IIS is set to start up automatically and I can see that the service has been successfully started.  Upon a fresh reboot if I go into IIS and click on start website I get the following error:
"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.  (Exception from HRESULT:  0x80070020"
If I try to start debugging on my local website project I get the following error:
"Unable to start debugging on the web server.  The underlying connection was closed.  The connection was closed unexpectedly."
Any ideas on what I can try?  I've been doing research on the issue and Microsoft suggest making sure no other service is listening on the same ports.  I've verified that this isn't the issue.

Creating a Test server - Certain links getting redirected to live server.

  

Hi.

We had a website deployed on IIS server remotely say www.liveserver.com.

We recently decided to make a copy of the website internal to the organisation so we brought a server and copied all the code from live server and configured it and say it is http//archives-testserver.com


Everything seems to work fine but while navigating and clicking on certain module  links within  http//archives-testserver.com......the domain name is getting rewritten to www.liveserver.com and user is made to navigate on the live site. I wonder where this configuration is with in IIS...

I looked under properties under website identification and everything is referring it as http://arhives-testserver.com.  also thr is a file called securityRedirect.inc and ifor handling errors and all the references have been changed and couldn't find anything in web.config.


I would really appreciate if anyone can guide in right direction, where else to look for probable reference to live site?










How get clientID of a control in a ModalPopup of a User Control??

  

Hi,

I have a user control which has a modal popup. This modal popup has a grid and few controls like textboxes and comboboxes. I am trying to clear out all the controls when the close button is clicked. I am using javascript to close the modalpopup. but to clear the controls, $get('<%=txtbox1.clientID%>') method is returning null. can someone please help me?


Here is my code snippet.

function close_Click() {
    var mdlPopup1;
    mdlPopup1 = $find('modalPopup');
    mdlPopup1.add_hidden(clearInputFields);
    mdlPopup1.hide();
    
}

    function clearInputFields() {
        var name = $get('<%=txtName.clientID%>');

        name.value="";
       }


How to display dynamic XML data inside a Panel control?

  

Hi all,

I have a SQL routine which builds me an entire XML file and returns it as a string. 
If I save the content of this file as sample.xml for instance, I am able to open it in IE or any other browser and the user can expand the nodes and see all the content he wishes.

I am trying to build a ASP.Net page which will display the content of a XML file in the same way (or similar) that the browsers do.

So far, I've been reading some posts and noticed I can use XmlDataSource control and its Data property to load the entire XML doc as a string. Now I am stuck how to display the contents. I found TreeView very confusing and not sure if DataGrid would be a alternative as well. I need to user to be able to open and expand the nodes.

Please someone point me to the right direction. What controls to use, etc... sample codes are the best ;-)

Thank you
