Re: Alert Function In asp.net - ASP.NET Discussion Boards

In ASP.Net u can use Javascript confirm for this purpose.
based on return value of confirm u can delete the record.

Nothing is Impossible. Keep always Smiling... Smile | :)

Thanks for your response but sir as i mentioned earlier i know that i can use javascript's alert function but how can i use it in my code file

private sub button1_click(BYVAL sender as object,byval e as eventargs)
result=<java script="">alert("Do you want to delete the record permanantely?")

and if i use it in source file than
how can i access the result( ok or cancel)
result = alert("Do you want to delete the record permanantely?")

from my code file?????

I hope u'll understand my problem

Looking forward 4 your response

u use VB as a code behind language.
in Inline code U can use Javascript.

for ex.

Inline code
----------
script>
function check()
{
if(confirm("Do u want to delete"))
return true;
else
return false;
}
/script>
asp:button text="delete" id="b1" onclick="b1_click" onclientclick="return check()" /

Nothing is Impossible. Keep always Smiling... Smile | :)

Your help was great but Can i ask more boz actully i m using grid view and in my grid view there is a column Delete so when the user clicks on delete i'll have to ask that wether he is sure or not and how can i add these line for grid view

asp:button text="delete" id="b1" onclick="b1_click" onclientclick="return check()" /

Thanks for your idea...

No, that just plain does not work. Buy a book on ASP.NET and read it, please.

It looks to me like what you want to do, is that have the button that does the deleting, call some script on the cleint to prompt the user, and only do the postback ( and therefore the delete ), if they click yes.

For your kind information its not my home work its my project and i m not a student, i m a software engineer and have experience of more than 1 year in vb.net and now i wanna work in asp.net that's why is said that i m newbiew to asp.net.

I respect all the senior person in codeproject boz of their helping nature and once you also helped me to solve my problem and i m still greatful for that but that doesn't means u can say anything to me.
Its not the right way to talk someone being a senior person
Any ways let it go.........

I'm sorry to say that you've proven my point. You've used VB.NET for one year ? A computer science course takes 3-4 years, and you list no other languages, how much of the one year of your life that you've known how to write a bit of code, were you paid for it ? You're obvioulsy learning ASP.NET by taking paid projects in it, that is just plain disgusting, but not surprising, given the bad experiences I've had with Indian outsourcing companies.

As far as I can see, a lot of outsourcing firms hire people who have no idea, and then expect the people in the West who are losing their jobs as a result, to do their work, on the basis of their inability and unwillingness to buy books, use google, and spend some time learning before they expect to be paid for their efforts.

I am always happy to help people, that's why I am here. But, the direction our industry is taking is upsetting to me. I take solace in the fact that outsourcing companies are still offering poor quality of code and inexperienced workers, I feel sure I'm not going to see my job threatened, but I feel equally sure that in the eyes of those stupid enough to use outsourcing companies, what I do is being devalued.

You refer to me as a senior person. I can tell you for sure, that if I interviewed someone for an ASP.NET position, and they didn't know the things you obviously didn't know from your first post, I would not even consider them. I would probably tell war stories about the person who needed to be in college, not trying to be paid for their efforts. But, you are not alone. The double tragedy is that people where I live can't find good developers, I know of many companies that cannot find a skilled dev because people have left computer science, wrongly thinking there would be no work. I have recently been paid $80 an hour by a company that can't find skilled worker locally, and have tried to outsource briefly and found just what a nightmare it is for all but the most menial tasks. That's $166,000 a year, less than I earn, but 3 times what the average developer used to make around here.

So, please don't tell me what the right way is to talk. I've helped you, and I've also tried to make you realise just how far you have to go before you can hold your head up high when asking to be paid for writing ASP.NET code. My desire in doing this is to inspire you to actually rise above the standards of those around you, and do some study, to become an actual software engineer, able to do research, able to understand the frameworks you are using, able to do your job without bringing your most basic questions here. I know that often I don't tell people what they want to hear around here, but I always try to tell them what they need to hear, if they are to stand any chance of making it as developers. I'm trying to help people, not win their friendship. It's sad that nowadays I have to choose between those two things sometimes.

Everyone is an engineer nowadays, that title means at lot less than it used to. Hell, even garbage men are called Sanitation Engineers in the PC world.

Lets try this one more time. After reading this response go back and look over the responses you've already been given.

The way to achieve what you want in ASP is to attach a client side confirm box which stops postback if the user clicks "Cancel". To stop a postback from a link, or button, you return false in the OnClientClick. handiliy, the javascript confirm returns false if the user click "Cancel".

Hence: OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you wish to delete this item')"

Finally, if you need to do this within a grid with a delete button/link the idea is to use FindControl to get a reference to the link/button and append the relevant OnClientClick.

If any of this is hard for you to understand I have given you a plethora of keywords to search google for.

Hi?

does 'it's urgent' mean I took a rentacoder job and now realise I can't just find code to copy and paste ?

Don't take jobs without doing research, ideally don't take jobs in technologies you don't understand. ASP.NET is an engine for HTML and javascript. Neither HTML nor javascript can be used to run a web cam. You will need to write a .NET or Java plugin for your web page to do that.

Hi,
my dataset dsRates contains all country list(notin sorted order). I copied dataset table to Dataview. and I used dvRates.Sort property. when I debug the code dvRates showing the records in sorted order, but while reading its taking from original table(Dataset table).
Ex: dsRates table contains one "Country" column. the records are
A1
B1
A2
A3....

when I used Sort property of Dataview, the records are in sorted order.when I try to reading records it showing B1 instead of A2.

DataView dvRates = new DataView();
dvRates = dsRates.Tables[0].DefaultView;
dvRates.Sort = "Contry";

//showing 2nd record as B1. actully it shold show A2
for (i = 0; i < dvRates.Table.Rows.Count; i++) {
string country = dvRates.Table.Rows[i]["Country"].ToString();
}

Can anyone help me..

Thanks

Use This Code

DataView dvRates = new DataView();
dvRates = dsRates.Tables[0].DefaultView;
dvRates.Sort = "Country";

for (i = 0; i < dvRates.Count; i++) {
string country = dvRates[i]["Country"].ToString();
}

Thank& Regards

I am very new to asp.net I am hosting a web server:

But this doesnot help..

Does it require some special priviledges??

Som

http://172.16.216.187:1094/Default.aspx
This also dosent seem to work..
Windows firewall is off..

Som

I tried this url on my own computer:

http://172.16.216.187:194/test/Default.aspx

instead of

http://localhost:194/test/Default.aspx

but this dosent seem to work..

What could be the issue?

Som

use this http://172.16.216.187/test/Default.aspx

in both system windows firewall should be in off.
also test folder should be in web sharing.

How do you, run a program in Client's system using asp.net??

Like here in LAN, I want to run some program (say notepad) in the system in which I give the above url..

Som

Nothing is Impossible. Keep always Smiling... Smile | :)

Ok...

Say there is a node A and from this I am trying to access
node B (the web server) with url:

http://172.16.216.187/test/Default.aspx

Now what code shall I write in the Default.aspx.cs at Page_Load (at node B, the web server) such that any program (say notepad.exe) runs on node A.

I tried :

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("notepad.exe");

But this does not help..

Any solution??
Thanx in advance..
