Re: ASP - Display a GridView on Second Page

When the dropdown changes you can use Response.Redirect("") to go to the page with the grid and pass the parameters through the query string.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Determining all possible AD login return types (i.e. User Not Found, etc.) from a MVC json web service

I am working on a MVC Json web service and in the web service I am making a call to Active directory. What I need to do is determine, in my code, all possible common, non-exception, types of login return values possible when an AD user attempts to login. Also, where can I find a list of all common login errors (i.e. User Not Found, etc.) and how to access the login error type in my json web service.

You really need to post the exact error message.

It's usually from not setting the file permissions on the disk drive for IIS_ANONYMOUS and the app_pool identity.

You really need to search for setting permissions, the AppPool\YouNameHere is the name of the application pool, in which you go tot he IIS Manager and look up the name, or it's the name of the website you made.

[EDIT]
If your web server is a member of a domain, you should unlink it before using the code below, then relink it when done.

icacls.exe test.txt /grant "IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool":(OI)(CI)M

cmd /c icacls test.txt /grant "IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool:(OI)(CI)M"

You should Google the above and read up on it before applying the command, so you get the exact result you want. or else you'll have to go back and delete a bad idea to keep your site secure. Just search icals.exe

You also have to setup permissions for IIS_Anonymous for read only. I searched for a link for that

Hi,

You should be able to add your user via the Roles.AddUserToRole Method.

Hope it helps.

Jquery-ui ASP Update Panels and User Controls

Wierdbeard6512-Sep-14 7:08

Hi,

First up, I have spent the past 2 days Googling this one. I have found many, many "solutions" but I can't get any of them to work. Part of the problem is that the solutions say to use this code or that, but don't say WHERE to put it!

So, here is the situation.

I have a page, using a Master page. I have a TreeView on the left and an Update Panel on the right. When the user selects a node in the TreeView, I add a user control to the Update Panel. (The control depends upon the type of the node - internal to my App.)

This works.

BUT, I have the need to enter a date in a User Control. I tried to use the standard Calendar control, but for some reason it's SelectedDate property isn't being updated. I then tried the JQuery-UI DatePicker tied to a text box, but it never pops up.

I know it has something to do with the AJAX reload of the Panel happening after the control is registered, but...

Anyway, if anyone can explain how to do it (not just what code to use, but WHERE to place it Smile | :)

) I'd be eternally grateful!

Here is what I have (I have a Calendar control in there too. Getting either to work would make me VERY happy!):

Jquery DatePicker

Let's fix one thing at a time, so I'll tackle the datepicker
I didn't see an update panel, so if there is none, the try will catch the error and contrinue to load the script.
Make sure you place the code below in the web form's, content place holder and not the master page like in your example.

I personally don't like the jquery.ui everthing, and prefer to just load the core, and the datepicker.

I switched the way you discover the textbox to bind to from css to the actual id of the textbox, using a wildcard to filter anything the is prefixed in front of the actual ID name of the textbox, will is standard behavior for using an update panel, in which $CT100_ is prefixed.

WebForm.aspx

<asp:Content ID="HeadContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeadContent" runat="Server">
<script src="Scripts/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/jquery-ui-core.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/jquery-ui-datepicker.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
    initializeBinding();
    try {
      Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_endRequest(EndRequestHandler);
    }
    catch (e) {

    }
});
function EndRequestHandler(sender, args) {
    initializeBinding();
}

function initializeBinding() {
    $('[id*="TextBoxGoLive"]').datepicker({
        autoSize: true
    });
}
</script>
</asp:Content>

[EDIT]
Test the code on your dev machine, using internet explorer 9+, and press F12 in IE, and clickon the bug for Debug. IE will throw an error like the webdev highlighting the error in yellow and red, showing where the script failed and why.
Then fix the error and run it again.

[EDIT 2]
Fix the path of the scripts, by deleting them, and using the project explorer to drag the jquery file into the editor, in which the correct path will be generated for that page.

Cool deal!, guess I'm getting better at this. Your post had a lot of information to sift through, but overall in the end, it was quite simple.

i forget to tell you to add the CSS for the datepicker. Once again you just drag the files from solution explorer to the webform or master page. I recommend the Head Content place holder on the web form, to keep the page load times faster.

<link href="../styles/jquery/jquery.ui.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="../styles/jquery/jquery.ui.datepicker.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Just my Opinion here,
Be careful of the update panel, and try not to ever use. I think its kind of evil the way it works, and will back fire on on you in live production deployment if not fully understood. I found it takes a lot of horse power to drive it when using SSL at the same time unless you have one of those new Xeon CPU's with built in AES instructions.

You should really just load all the user controls within div containers, and use jquery to toggle the CSS display value to block or none as you change your selection, and use the radio button list instead of the dropdown if you only have 2 or 5 choices.

Hello

I am getting the following error message:

Server Error in '/' Application.
The resource cannot be found.
Requested URL: /Account/success.aspx

This is a Web form which inserts field data into a MS Access database and redirects the user to a 'You have successfully registered page'.

Everything was working fine locally until I decided to personalise it to show 'JohnSmith, you have successfully registered'.

I did that by adding the following to my register.aspx.vb file:

Response.Redirect("success.aspx?Data=" & Server.UrlEncode(username.Text))

and this to my success.aspx.vb file:

'Partial Class success
'Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

'End Class

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

    End Sub

End Class

What could be the problem here, please?

Thanks!

Well, the error is pretty clear. The page /Account/success.aspx does not exist.

When you do Response.Redirect you likely will want to go to the root of the app and make your path from there so that if you deploy under a different structure, the code will still work. All you likely need to do is add ~ to your Response.Redirect.

Response.Redirect("~/success.aspx?Data=" & Server.UrlEncode(username.Text))

~/ will move to the root of the site.

That's great 8761667

Thank you.

The error has gone but for some reason the 'You have successfully registered' is still not personalised.

The script that I added I basically got from a Microsoft tutorial.

You're passing the username through the querystring but then never using it, at least not in the data you showed.

I suggest getting a book or going through online tutorials.

A simple method is to add a label and then in Page_Load take the value from Request.QueryString and put it into the label. But this is such basic stuff that I think you'll learn a lot more if you go through tutorials.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

A word of warning: Don't do what Ryan said. (Or at least, not exactly what he said!)

When you take a value from the request and want to re-display it, you need to make sure it's properly encoded. In this case, since you're display it as text within the HTML of the page, you need to use the HttpUtility.HtmlEncode method[^] to encode the string before showing it in a label.

The reason you need to encode it before displaying it is to prevent a cross-site scripting (XSS)[^] attack. Since the query-string could be modified by the user, they could pass in any HTML or javascript. If your code blindly copies that to the response, they can execute that script within your page. Since it's just a link, they could send that out to anyone they think might use your site, and anyone who clicked on the link would suddenly find that their authentication cookies have been stolen, or that your site has installed malware on their device.

You should never trust any input that comes from the user, whether it's in the query-string, part of a POST request, or even the HTTP headers. Always assume that all users are trying to hack into your site, and use the appropriate defences. Smile | :)

Hello Richard

Thanks for your post.

So in addition to this if I can get it to work:

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        If Request("Name") IsNot Nothing Then
             Name.Text = String.Format("{0}, ", Request("Name"))
        End If

    End Sub

End Class

I would also need the basis of something like this (which looks complicated!):

Imports System
Imports System.Web
Imports System.IO

Class MyNewClass
   Public Shared Sub Main()
      Dim myString As String
      Console.WriteLine("Enter a string having '&' or '""'  in it: ")
      myString = Console.ReadLine()
      Dim myEncodedString As String 
      ' Encode the string.
      myEncodedString = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(myString)
      Console.WriteLine("HTML Encoded string is " + myEncodedString)
      Dim myWriter As New StringWriter()
      ' Decode the encoded string.
      HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(myEncodedString, myWriter)
      Console.Write("Decoded string of the above encoded string is " + myWriter.ToString())
   End Sub 'Main
End Class 'MyNewClass

As an aside, my 'you have successfully registered' page tells me after I complete the form myself:

'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox, You have successfully registered'.

I can see 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox' if I hover my mouse over the word 'username' in my Register.aspx.vb file, but I don't know what the source of the error is.

Thanks again, Richard.

You don't really need the console application, unless you want to play with the methods. All you really need is:

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        
        ' Store this in a local variable, so you're not repeatedly looking up the same item.
        ' Also, use Request.QueryString("Name") instead of Request("Name"), as you already know it's in the query string.
        Dim theName As String = Request.QueryString("Name")
        
        ' The value might be Nothing, or it might be an empty string:
        If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(theName) Then
             
             ' Encode the value to display as text within an HTML context:
             Name.Text = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(theName)
        End If

    End Sub

End Class

As for the page displaying your name as System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox, it sounds like you're doing something like:

Response.Redirect(String.Format("success.aspx?name={0}", UserNameTextBox))

You need to pass the value of the TextBox, which is in the .Text property. You should also make sure that you properly encode the value - this time, for a URL:

Dim theName As String = UserNameTextBox.Text
Dim encodedName = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(theName)
Response.Redirect(String.Format("success.aspx?name={0}", encodedName))

Thanks for that, Richard.

This finally worked:

register.aspx.vb

Dim target = String.Format("~/Success.aspx?Name={0}", username.Text)
        ' Perform your Redirect '
        Response.Redirect(target, True)

success.aspx.vb

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        If Request("Name") IsNot Nothing Then
            ' It exists, so set your label (and a trailing comma) to display your name '
            Name.Text = String.Format("{0}, ", Request("Name"))
        End If

    End Sub

End Class

Thanks for your help and for giving me an idea of what to look for.

That looks very much like the original code you posted. You're missing all of the required encoding.

For example, try entering a username of <script>alert("Test")</script> - you'll either get a message box pop up when the success page loads, or your browser will prevent access to the page with a warning about cross-site scripting.

You need to encode the value according to the context:

register.aspx.vb:

Dim name As String = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(username.Text)
Dim target As String = String.Format("~/Success.aspx?Name={0}", name)
Response.Redirect(target, True)

success.aspx.vb:

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        Dim theName As String = Request.QueryString("Name")
        If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(theName) Then
            Dim encodedName As String = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(theName)
            Name.Text = String.Format("{0}, ", encodedName)
        End If

    End Sub

End Class

Hello Richard

Thanks for that.

I actually have in aspx.vb:

Dim target = String.Format("~/Success.aspx?Name={0}", username.Text)
        ' Perform your Redirect '
        Response.Redirect(target, True)

and in success.aspx.vb:

Public Class success
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        If Request("Name") IsNot Nothing Then
            ' It exists, so set your label (and a trailing comma) to display your name '
            Name.Text = String.Format("{0}, ", Request("Name"))
        End If

    End Sub

End Class

That seems to work, but I don't have HttpUtility.UrlEncode or HttpUtility.HtmlEncode.

Thanks again for your time.
