I am creating my menu with javascript. How possible it is that on page load it is created from the server side (VB ASP.NET) rather than the client side? And if this is possible how is this done? My main aim is that I can create menu items from a database.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to, from a client-side piece, call off to a server-side piece. I need to do this synchronously. On my server-side code, though, I'm calling off to another piece of code, which I want to have a maximum of, say, 10 seconds to return a value. If I don't have a response within 10 seconds, I want to force my own server piece to set my result equal to 0, and return to the client.
Here's what I have on my server-side code so far:
Public Function GetWebResult(ByVal inputParameter As Object) As WebReturnObject Implements IWebInterface.GetWebResult
Dim result As New WebReturnObject
Dim webItem As WebItem = Nothing
[CODE]...
I realize this code is not functional. The problem is that I'm unsure how I would go about getting back into GetWebResult to set the appropriate return values before it is sent back to the client.
I am struckup with a problem from last two days. I am creating a web application using VB.NET, Ajax & RAD Controls. When user clicks on a button I want to open a RAD Window and show the list of ledgers available to the user, so that he can select one from the list. And to open that window I have to call a java script function from client side, which is already achieved using the below code.

Can I send an object from client-side javascript to server-side code via ASP.NET ?
View 5 RepliesI know this defeats the purpose of client side vs. server side (refer to title of this thread). What I would love to do is build my own custom progress indicator on the client showing how far a server side code has progressed. I figure if I could only get a JavaScript to fire and render a value of some control at pre-defined intervals while the server is working I could make it happen - but alas I'm beginning to believe that this is impossible. Below is some code that performs three 2 sec loops. At the end of each I want to change the visible value of a control on the browser. [Code]

I need to send back the id, the old value from _1 and the new value from _0 back to the server. What is the best way to format this data so I can easily extract the data from the server side so I can easily email someone for example to let them know which textboxes have changed, what the old values were, and what the new values are
At the serverside level, I am using .NET-3.5 (VB). I know how to send the data bacl. and how to email the data, I just wanted to know how to best format the data at clientside before sending it back. I could have upto 50 sets of id, old, and new values to send back. Sorry for not making that clear earlier.
Example:
How can I modify the script above to generate this?

{
"id": "name_0",
"new": "text",

I add an option to a select with jQuery. When I save with an asp button, I don't see the changes on the server side in the click event.
And the HTML is all correct after I add the option.
Is it a coding problem or I don't understand something?
$(selectCourant)
.append($("<option></option>")
.attr("value",$(dropdown).val())
.text($(dropdown + " option:selected").text()));
Ultimately, what I want to accomplish is an AJAX-based messaging system. I already have a database table for messages, and an ASPX to add new messages (and declare old messages no longer relevant).
The current messaging system simply polls the server every 15 seconds, and re-pulls the current message set.
What I am looking to do is: On $(document).ready(), register an ajax callback function that listens for a server-side event (e.g., MessagesUpdated) On table insert/update, fire MessagesUpdated server-side.
This way, whenever the table is updated (or new records added), any clients listening know that new data is available and can re-poll the server then.
Ideally, I'd also like to make the new data available as an event argument (to minimize re-polling the db).
I can find references to something like this in other languages, but I cannot find any actual code examples to get me started.
Assuming this is possible to do via .Net, can anyone help get me started on this?
I'm using the 2.0 Framework. Also while I added a VB.Net tag, I can read C# reasonably well, so please feel free to post in either language.
Im creating a space invaders game that has a group of "invaders" moving side to side and when i shoot one it gets destroyed, my invaders are in an array. So in order for the invaders to keep moving right until they get to the edge, i made a function that detects which invader is right most. But this was crudly done as I wa trying to make the opposite of my left most function which works. So my rightmost function dosent work

View 6 RepliesI have a website. In it, I have a button which will export some data from a SQL database to Excel. I want to open an excel workbook on the client and paste the data there.

Can anyone explain to me how to configure my server so that I can use clientside Excel?
View 2 RepliesI have an ASP program that synchronizes 2 databases. I also have a VB.NET program compiled down to an EXE that fills the source database before the synch happens. In the back of my mind I know I should be able to link the VB & ASP .NET programs together since that's the power of .NET. Alternatively, if I could run the EXE from ASP it would be just as well for my project. I do have the source to both programs. The ASP script was written with a text editor - the VB was in VB 2008 Express.
assume I know nothing of linking assemblies and such because I don't - I just read that in an article. I'd prefer ASP but if necessary I could use the ASP.NET script to launch the EXE. The code is legacy ASP with VBScript so all our ASP.NET stuff is the VB flavor as well. C# makes my other programmer's head hurt so for his sake this will have to remain VB.
Is there a way I can relatively easily launch the EXE pre-sync program and have it run when the ASP synch script starts?
The server is MS Windows Server 2003 SP2 / IIS 6.0 / the .NET version is 2.0.50727.3603.
By the way - I'd love to "learn to use .NET properly" but time is short for this project and in-depth research will have to wait.
EDIT: Aaron's answer below gets me most of the way to the solution but I'm getting:
Exception Details: System.ComponentModel.Win32 Exception: Access is denied

SOLUTION: Aaron's answer below plus the knowledge that ~/ in MapPath is the virtual root of the website and the file to run is relative to that.
I wanted to build a front end web page so that I can start and stop various programs on my server remotely.

I was having problems inserting a string into the following tag : <tr id="rowBulkOptions" style='<%# sBulkOptionsRowStyle %>'> Don't ask why I'm using tables sBulkOptionsRowStyle is a Public string in the aspx.vb file. Seemingly the only way I can get this to render is to put Page.DataBind() in the Page_Load, Page_PreRender etc.. However this causes me problems because Page.DataBind() binds all controls on the page. I could use <%= BUT another part of the code inserts controls into the page and apparently you can't use <%= and insert controls.Is there a way I can just say 'look, put sBulkOptionsRowStyle into the page

I just tried to fill my dropdown in vb.net and I have the same result. The dropdown is full but when I do a postback I have no selected value Actually on the server side when I put a breakpoint on the dropdown, the item count is 0. I don't understand why... It's like the 8th dropdown list in this project and everything is the same but this one doesn't work.
I don't do any binding on the page load. it's all in the aspx file well it works ONLY when I add autopostback="true" SelectedIndexChanged="dd_ressource_composante_SelectedIndexChanged" for the dropdown.And theres no code in dd_ressource_composante_SelectedIndexChanged It's vb.net for the server side?

View 1 RepliesThe server connects, the clients connect, one client sends a message to the server, and the server broadcasts it to the other clients. But what I want to do now is to also have the server communicate with the clients. But when I click on the server form, it freezes, and I cant do nothing.
I think this is because of me not creating a thread for the communication(I saw this on another forum), but I dont know how to do that. I copied basically all the chat program code from a site, and I dont know much of sockets and what not.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to use PageMethods to call a function from the server side, but I am getting an error that PageMethods is undefined.
Here is what I have put into the html
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"
EnablePageMethods="True">
and here is the function from the code behind.
<System.Web.Services.WebMethod()> _
Public Function LoadChild(ByVal EntityID, ByVal EntityCat, ByVal lnType, ByVal FullExpand, ByVal lnEquip, ByVal lnTemplate) As String
and here is the call to the function using page methods.
PageMethods.LoadChild(lnEntityID, lnEntityCat, GLOBALEQUIPID, FullExpand, 0);
can anyone see why I would keep getting a PageMethods undefined error?
edit - part of the issue may be because the function isnt shared, but when shared is put in, i get this error in about 15 places. - this is refering to the session I am using - here is a snippet of the session being used that is showing an error.
prm4.Value = Session.Item("user_id")
I am getting the word session underlined with the error message below - any suggestions on how to fix this? this could fix the whole issue all together.
