Is it possible to make the viewstate false of whole page including all controls at a time.I mean I don't want to set enableviewstate="false" for all controls..In the page directive of the aspx page I have made enableviewstate="false" but still viewstate of all the controls of the is enabled.. And what the EnableViewState="False"actually works within Page directive.
View 3 RepliesI have written methods to override the LoadPageStateFromPersistenceMedium and SavePageStateToPersistenceMedium methods. now the problem is that i am using a masterpage, so how do i maintain using my masterpage and still inherit from System.Web.UI.Page?
Bear in mind that the .vb Code behind the masterpage already inherits System.Web.UI.MasterPage. Anybody know how i can "properly" override these methods in a MasterPage?
I'm having some issues with an Invalid Viewstate error and I can understand why it's happening but I don't know how to fix it so I'm hoping someone can help.
I have a page which is similar to this /story/?id=123 but I'm using a different page to Server.Transfer to this page.
So I've set up /info to Server.TransferRequest("/story/?id=123") and it works fine until the page does a postback to itself.
We have a login form on this page which simply reloads the page but when it does it seems to add /?id=123 onto the end of the URL so it ends up like this /info/?id=123 thus causing an Invalid Viewstate error.
I've already tried adding EnableViewStateMac="false" - this fixes the error but it doesn't log the user in as expected so it does not give the required result.
Is there a better way to redirect to my page other than Server.TransferRequest but still keeping the nice URL? - I don't want to response.redirect if I can avoid it.
I am new at the ViewState and i am looking to see what values are stored within it. I know how to loop through an array to check for a value but i do not know how to go about doing that for a ViewState("test") property.
Let's say i have added "bob, tom, Jim" to a ViewState called ViewState("test"). I would like to be able to see if "tom" was in the ViewState("test"). If not then add it but if it exists already then skip it.[code]....
I thought I knew how ViewState worked, but I was wrong.I don't understand why the following ASPX page preserves the value typed into the TextBox after clicking on the Button?(ViewState is disabled for both the page and the TextBox.)

I have had a user of my VB.net web app complain he keeps getting an intermittent error message, causing him to crash out of the system.

It appears from the error message that the viewstate keeps becoming corrupt (see screen-dump below), but I don't understand why. He claims it happens every 2-3 minutes, but I've used the system a lot and have never experienced it.I should mention too that he is using the web-app in a very "non-standard" way. To achieve optimum speed he's actually using remote desktop, to connect to our server directly, and running it as localhost. ("Madness!"- yes, I know. I didn't make the decision.) That may not be relevant of course.
I have a VB.Net web site and on my sign up page I am storing the ViewState in Session. I am using the following code to achieve this.[code].....
This has been working fine for months, then I started seeing the occasional 'System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'. The exception is raised when I try to get the value of the Text Property from the SelectedItem of a DropDownList, the problem being the DropDownList does not contain items after the page has posted back.The problem is only present when using IE (7 or 8 according to my logs, but I have only tested with 8), but not when using FireFox 3.5.Reverting to using the normal ViewState persistence mechanism caused the page to work in IE again.There are no ViewState related exceptions logged, it is like the page just 'thinks' it has no stored ViewState.
I agree that the best way to shorten the ViewState is to disable it on the ASP.Net controls that don't need it. Keeping it small from the beginning is a great habit.I have also heard that it is already compressed (although can be true... there are ways of compressing it even more, has described in this Stack Overflow question).
My question here is not if it should be compressed... is: when should ViewState be compressed?If we have a ViewState of 410 characters it will weight 410 bytes in a page, while a ViewState of 13.843 characters equals 13.5 KB.
13.5KB is a considerable weight already. And if I compress a CSS file that height 10KB, I think it is also worthy compressing a ViewState of 13.5KB, even if that means a little extra "thinking" on the server.
But is 410 bytes of ViewState worth the extra processing on the server?At what point is it worth compressing?
I have a form with its method being "get" that passes the variables and their values to the query string, respectively. However, it also passes the viewstate variable in the query string. Now, I have a very long viewstate value on the given page, and if passed in the query string, the viewstate variable will cause the page to error out, due to "too long of a query string" which happens to also be too long of a url.
I cannot merely remove the viewstate variable - I need it. But I need to pass the viewstate variable along via some method other than get when the form is submitted, while the other inputs of the form (the non-hidden inputs) are appended to the query string.
I have Dim a(15) as integer i wont to save this array in Viewstate .

I keep getting the following error message when I run my vb.net web app:The state information is invalid for this page and might be corrupted.After a good search, I came across this Microsoft page, which describes the problem exactly. The likely cause seems to be "scenario 2":[code]I appear to have prevented this error from happening by using EnableEventValidation="False" in the Page node of the markup as recommended here.

On my webpage I am loading multiple instances of a usercontrol, sometimes the usercontrol is laoded within itself. I need to save a bunch of properties for the round trip of a post back but i am confused on how to save those properties to ViewState and set them again to the repeater items within the usercontrol. have read the MSDN on Viewstate but I am not understanding it quite well for some reason..[code]
View 2 RepliesI have been reading up and trying to understand the difference viewstate and session and as i am only storing a database id i believe i have settled on Viewstate.
Am i right in saying that a viewstate never expires until the browser is closed? One of the issues i have with Sessions is that sometimes the people completling my websites forms can take and age to do so and the session can expire.
I have a website [URL]
have a login.aspx form and we can access with user and passs
but i want i can from site2.com.vn call a function with username,pass and use viewstate to access site1.com.vn without press user and pass
I have a gridview in asp.net using vb 2005. on " Protected Overrides Sub Render"some of the data in the columns gets modified. when i do a view source.. and look at a column1's values it says 0010. in the render i am taking a value of ab0010 and turning it into the 0010 that is seen in the view source.. later on, there is a button_click event that goes through each line of the gridview and grabs some values. Here I'm doing a CType(gvr.FindControl("column1"), Label).Text the value is coming back as ab0010. so the question is.. the view source shows something different than what is in the viewstate?
View 1 RepliesI've looked up ways to reduce the ViewState:
Viewstate Optimisations
Strategies for reducing ViewState size in asp.net
However, due to the situation I'm in, I need the quickest and most effective ways to reduce the ViewState size. The legacy system I'm working on is bloated and routinely has a ViewState that's 800Kb+ on multiple postbacks.
For example, I'm pretty sure populating drop down lists with 100+ items on multiple post backs is one of the culprits, correct?
Disabling the ViewStae entirely doesn't appear feasible. It breaks all of the controls, of which there are many, rendering the pages unusable. If this is the best approach, how should I go about handling all the broken controls?
I'm trying to add a row grouping row to my data-bound gridview. It works fine on the first response, but at the postback i got the "Failed to load viewstate" error.There is the code for the GridView's RowDataBound event:

Dim cell As New TableCell()

I have a text input in textbox1 in tab page 1 and i want that text from textbox1 will be displayed in textbox2 in tab page 2.
View 3 RepliesMy page has a drop down whose values are dynamically populated. Based on which item is selected, a number of TextBoxes are dynamically created during runtime.The user then fills in information into the textboxes and clicks a submit button.After postback from the submit button, I need to again dynamically create the TextBoxes during Page_Init (BEFORE LoadViewState) so that after the ViewState loads, my Button_Click event can save/do whatever with the user input. PROBLEM is, I cannot recreate the textboxes based on the selection in the dropdown, because the dropdown hasn't been "selected" yet by LoadViewState.SO, how can I read from the view state, create my textboxes, then let the viewstate populate the textboxes, and then the Button_Click will use the values??The one thing I've attempted is to override the LoadViewState function so that I can read from the view state, create the boxes, and then load the viewstate again. This did NOT work, because the debugger never seemed to hit my overridden function.[code]
View 1 RepliesI am adding controls to a page programatically in the code behind. I add an asp:Label and set it's Text value. I add an asp:TextBox and set it's Text value. Both Text values are returned in the Response and displayed in the browser. All fine so far.
The user performs an action that causes a postback. I re-load the dynamically added asp:Label and asp:TextBox. When the Response is returned to the browser, only the asp:TextBox Text value is displayed. The asp:Label Text value is not. If I inspect the HTML I can see the asp:Label control (rendered as an HTML span tag) but no value.
How can I get the code to automatically re-load the Text value of an asp:Label on each postback? Why is the behaviour different for an asp:Label and an asp:TextBox? I do not want to have to manually re-set the Text value on each postback.
