Include JavaScript When Using User Controls?
Dec 4, 2011
I'm to .NET and all the associated cool stuff you can do, but am wondering about efficiency with User Controls and JS includes.
My user controls are mainly made up with an ascx display page and .vb.ascx code behind, as is customary with the code-behind coding style of .NET, which is great for coding simplicity although it does double then bear of files required. However, as I understand it, the server compiles these and returns the HTML efficiently.
Where the Control requires JavaScript, as I'm developing, I am making external JS files for each User Control with the same name, so the user controls consist of 'controlName.ascx, controlName.vb.ascx, controlName.js'
If a page requested by the user contains several User Controls the browser will be requesting multiple JS files, probably a master page JS file, jQuery AND each required file for the respective Controls.
This approach makes sense to me whilst developing and as everything's all kept nice and neat, making problem solving easy, but when it goes live there'll be loads of get requests from the browser, given that each time the browser gets a file, even the process of requesting the file to check if its cached or not must take some time.
Would I be best off including my JS inline in the ascx files, or code behind, directly inserting the script, or what is the 'correct' way to handle these multiple files to reduce get requests from the browser.
I'm using CSS sprites for buttons and stuff for the same reason, so wondering what to do with JS files. In my case CSS is generally handled by classes in the primary pages, so these are not an issue.

I have been given a project to update software written in Visual Basic. The software and some files are enclosed in a folder and was written 3 years ago. I have no clue what to do. All I have been asked to include more controls. The user interface allows user to select three processes by clicking on the buttons on user interface. The new requirements is to add two more buttons. There is not much information so I have to use only the resources available. When I tried to open the project, visual studio prompted to convert the project so its compatible with current version. I could open the project but dont know what to do from there. Please guide me towards the right direction. If the project folder is required please advise me how to attach it too.

Here is the current regex
"src=[""'](http://|./|/)?w+(.w+)*(/w+(.w+)?)*(/|?w*=w*(&w*=w*)*)?[""']>"
What I am trying to do is to grab element that is:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mysite="I need to grab everything inside these quotes">
With the current Regex I am able to grab the value but it also grabs all the "src" elements on the page.
src="http://www.mysite="I need to grab everything inside these quotes">
What I am attempting to do is to only get this one line that includes the
<script and then the src="">
And then just get the src="info from hrere" How can I edit the current regex code to include <script type="text/javascript"

I have completed my COMBOBOX now I would like to include a LISTVIEW when the user click OK. instruction on how to include a LISTVIEW. Do I use the same form that I used to create the COMBOBOX or do I create a new project? instruction to create a LISTVIEW after a user click OK. I have spend days going over the links on LISTVIEW but none give me instruction on how to use VB Express 2010 to create a LISTVIEW. After that than what do I do to include a column on the listview. I need someone to walk me thru creating a column header and the filed name.

I'm trying to add upload controls to the page. This HTML mark-up with JavaScript is working fine but theres no option to remove the added control:
1. Example A
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
[code]....
Every thing was working fine with Example A, only there's no option to remove the added contorls.When I added "Remove" control option with jQuery in Example B, HttpFileCollection can't get any file from input control added to the page.

There is newer code in a follow up post. I suggest using the code in the later post rather than the code in this one. You can still read this post though. When designing a user interface, one should be conscious of how many individual controls are required to implement the functionality. In some cases an initial design may begin with many buttons or textboxes (for example) but then further review of
the actual required functionality allows for a reduction in the number of unique controls.
But other times, there isn't a better way (which will still make sense to the user of the application) then to have a series of many repeated controls. So in the cases where one can be certain that the best UI implementation for an application will require the use of multiple copies of a given control, then it often becomes necessary to maintain some method of managing all of those controls at various points
throughout the application. Doing so typically requires that one build up some collection of controls which can then be accessed by index in order to work with any given control; but this can lead to a lot of clutter in the code file which handles these control's events. For instance there will be some kind of collection declaration, some recursive routine to find all of the controls of interest, and then any number of event handler methods with long lists of Handles clauses, or additional code loops to wire up the event handling for each control.
Purpose Since most of this functionality could be considered a requirement regardless of the type of control being managed, or its required functionality, it may make sense to wrap all of the control management functionality into a single class. And since our first requirement is a collection of controls, then a base collection class could be the perfect starting point for our control manager. There are a number of existing thread around this topic, with some recent (at the time of this writing) ones being:[URL]..In this, and related, threads I have posted examples of a simple TextBoxManager and ButtonManager control. But again, with so much similar functionality required regardless of the control being managed, it would be technically possible to create a generic ControlManager(Of T As Control) class which can manage any type of control.
[Code]...
So in summary, one can facilitate managing a large number of user interface controls by building a "control manager" class which both encapsulates the list of control instances, and deals with adding and removing defined event handlers for every control it manages. The generic control manager class itself can be inherited and extended into a more specific class on a per-application basis in order to provide more application-specific functionality.

In my asp.net projects there is a master page and there is a control on Contentplaceholder1. Changing this control's id after rendered like "ctl00_Contentplaceholder1_control" in my local. But at the server its changing like "Contentplaceholder1_control". When i used documents.getelelentbyid('ctl00_Contentplaceholder1_control') js function, its working on my local but not working at the server. So why disappearing "ctl00_" when app runs at the server?
Edit:Why doesn't the server side control id contains "ctl00_" after rendered?

I have some custom user controls in my .net winforms program that do not display correctly when the user has selected larger text size. This setting:
My controls look like this:
Instead of like this:
The bill to area and ship to area are both custom controls. I don't know if this is contributing to the problem but I do have code in each to scale the phone/fax areas to stretch nicely, like this code from the bill to control,
Private Sub panFaxPhone_Resize(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles panFaxPhone.Resize
panFax.Width = (panFaxPhone.Width / 2) - 1
panPhone.Width = (panFaxPhone.Width / 2) - 1
panFax.Left = panFaxPhone.Width - panFax.Width
End Sub
How can I get my controls to size correctly while still respecting the users choice for larger text (I don't want to just set the AutoScaleMode to None)? After playing with this for a long time it seems to be a problem with anchors in the child controls. See this below image, the inner black box is the control with its border turned on, the text boxes (like name) are anchored left and right and should stretch to fill the control, but don't.

I know this is probably a simple question but, I have a ASP.NET WebSite not WebApplication and I'm trying to get all of my Web User Controls under the same namespace so that I can register them once inside the web.config file and be done with it. My Question is, How do I do this (put them all under the same namespace and make it the default namespace for that folder)?

I am programmatically adding some custom user controls to a PlaceHolder which I have on a simple aspx page. All of the user controls Postback's work correctly except for one which has a Gridview on it.
For some reason any postback that gets fired from within this control, does not call the specified event on the first click, however all future clicks it will work fine. I have no idea why this is the case, but many solutions I have found, suggest adding an ID to the ascx User Control, however this doesn't work in my case.
I've taken a look at the source file for the page that gets generated before and after the first click, javascript used for calling the postback changes, i.e
Before first click: onclick="javascript:__doPostBack('tmpControlID$sgvPrimaryEmploymentHistory','Select$0')"
After first click:
[Code]....
Again, nothing overly complicated. The USERCONTROLNAME is just a const with the value "tmpControlID" in it.
The control that is giving me trouble is a little complicated, I was originally using a custom GridView control that we have created, but have removed it and replaced it with the standard asp one to see if the problem still occurs, and it does.
Any button, on control which fires off a postback will fail the first time, and all future click will work correctly. On the first click the Page_Load event will get called, but that is it.

I have a couple user controls that are loaded by a Select Case statement. However, in the behind code file for the main page that loads these controls, none of the asp controls show up in intellisense. I had a feeling it's because the controls are loaded conditionally. My question is what is the best way to solve this?
1) Load the controls and do a Select Case in the behind code to make them hidden or not.
2) Is there a way to say (psuedocode): LoadUserControl("UserControl1").Controls("tbTest").Text = ""
3) How can I pass a dataset to the User Control file?
4) Any other ideas?[code]
