I've done a bit of looking around, and while I see some hearsay about the WebService HTTP Handler using per-request instantiation, I cannot find any specific documentation from MSDN. I've not tested it, so I'm willing to cede that it could work differently than every other Microsoft HTTP Handler.
And as far as hard-and-fast rules go, I'll happily agree to disagree about statics and state. I've almost never seen a coder that leaned on static methods not start doing the same with fields for shortcuts, though.

Sorry, I have to agree with F-ES Sitecore: Accessing a static member does not create an instance of the class, and using static methods does not introduce state to an object.

No need for a sorry, if I'm wrong about the way that the Web Service HTTP Handler works then I accept that. The other ASP.NET handlers will create an object, however, whether you're calling a static method or not. HttpContext, Request, and Response objects are all instance members.
The "static methods lead to state" comment has more to do with philosophy the literal implementation. I've seen (and done) it enough times to know, creating static methods leads to creating static fields. It's not completely inevitable, but in the web application world it's pretty close to being so.

Unless your static methods then use static variables. As long as your static methods only use local variables you'll be ok.
ganesh.dks wrote: You call a static web method which means it does not have an associated object making it stateless(why do they use the term stateless?), which there by makes it work like a service which takes data, processes it, and returns something but does not keep anything to itself.
It's called stateless because it takes data, processes it, and returns something but does not keep anything to itself 
ganesh.dks wrote: Also you can choose to change the state of the controls present on the webpage by getting data in this manner and using JavaScript
If I had to be really pedantic I would point out that "controls" (as in server-controls like asp:Textbox etc) only exist while the page is being processed in the asp.net page lifecycle. Once the page has finished being created it is converted to html and sent to the client to display. At this point you simply have html and html elements, your controls no longer exist. When you submit the form asp.net uses view state to re-create those controls, re-create the html, server that html and again your controls are destroyed, they no longer exist.
If you call ajax methods and update the DOM via javascript all you are doing is amending the DOM, the client html elements. You are not changing the state of the controls as that state is held in the view state, and that is what your controls get re-created\deserialized from. Any changes you make to the "state" of your controls via js (let's say you add an option to a select element, or change the colour of some text) are unknown to asp.net and when you submit your form the controls will be re-created from the viewstate (which you haven't amended) and your amendments will be lost.

I have encountered a problem of updating dock panels on client side ( browser ). After time interval elapses, I have to send callback to update the contents of dock panel.
Each and every dock panel can have own respective time interval that can be set/reset by the user by interacting it's settings module. Thus we can have something like
dock panel_a : update after 10s
dock panel_b : update after 5s
dock panel_c : update after 15s
...............................
later on user might can change all the timers and these module might update totally on different intervals. I might be ended up having 100's of dock panels and correspondingly 70's would update their contents and 30 might never update Or 30 would update and 70 would be set to Never update.
What would be right implementation??
Should I write complete server side functionality ( in this case, I would write delegates or complete asynchronous implementation for updating all modules available on client side )??
Should I maintain a list of available panels at client side and need to access that list for sending callback once the time interval elapse for specific dock panel? If so, I would definitely need a parent timer available on client browser window which would count the seconds and on completion of seconds, it will match and refer the previously maintain list. If so,
List might contain 50 panels corresponding 50 timer objects.. Would that be fine?
Note: I am more in a favour of implementing server side code ( delegates and asynchronous ) because my server side better knows how many dock panels rendered on screen and for each dock panel it can maintain thread to update dock panel on client side.
what should be the right way?

You could include SignalR in your application to push updates to currently connected users. Alternatively you could use JavaScript timers to pull updates. Considering that you'll need to write a bit of JS to coordinate where the updates are targeting, that would be my route.
You should just need 1 timer, though, and attach the panel updates as events to a periodic method. Multiple timers that all do the same thing is just a waste of resources.

I understand Views, but as my project gets bigger and to stay organized, I wanted to create views within views.
So If I have a view called Admin or
http://website.com/Admin
I wanted to create a folder under it
http://website.com/Admin/Management
So I googled around the interwebs, and I guess I can't get the nomenclature to find the answer.
I can't see having a huge backend in MVC and making a huge model and controller in Admin.

I was referring to the latter. But you gave me a nudge in the right direction. I'll look at the route config.

For a C# WPF position I got asked
"You have an MVC unit- How do you get around dependencies?"
I'm not looking for the answer.. I don't even understand the question.
What are they asking here?
Also, why would this have anything to do with WPF??

And why have you posted this in the ASP.NET forum?

Last time I checked, MVC is part of ASP.net.

I don't understand either. Maybe they meant "unit test" rather than "unit"? Or maybe they meant you were re-using code from an MVC project in your WPF project. There is no harm is asking them to explain what they mean.

Nobody is calling you stupid!
But...we do not do your homework: it is set for a reason. It is there so that you think about what you have been told, and try to understand it. It is also there so that your tutor can identify areas where you are weak, and focus more attention on remedial action.
And working out what you need to do, and what you need to learn in order to do that is part of the task.
Try it yourself, you may find it is not as difficult as you think!
If you meet a specific problem, then please ask about that and we will do our best to help. But we aren't going to do it all for you!

That was a mouth full, I can't figure it out. This is my first Dropdownlist in MVC 5 and Razor
So I can get the Dropdownlist to load the values, but if the edit fails, the values don't persist. I'm sure I don't have to load it again in ActionResult with HttpPost.
I can't figure out how to set the value on edit or page load.
And I'm not sure if the value is picked on on postback, but I'll work on that part now.
So here's what I have now.
[Model]
[Required]
[Display(Name = "Security Level")]
public IEnumerable<System.Web.Mvc.SelectListItem> AdminSecurityLevels { get; set; }
public int SecurityLevel { get; set; }
[Controller]
public ActionResult UserEditor(int? userID)
{
IEnumerable<SelectListItem> securityLevels = SelectListHelper.GetAdminSecurityLevels();
ViewBag.AdminSecurityLevels = securityLevels;
}
[View]
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.AdminSecurityLevels, new { @class = "control-label" })
@Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.AdminSecurityLevels, Model.AdminSecurityLevels, new { @class = "form-control" })
</div>
And a [Class]
public class SelectListHelper
{
public static IEnumerable<SelectListItem> GetAdminSecurityLevels()
{
IList<SelectListItem> items = new List<SelectListItem>
{
new SelectListItem{ Text = "Select admin security level", Value = "--"},
new SelectListItem{ Text = "5 - Super Administrator", Value = "5"},
new SelectListItem{ Text = "4 - Management", Value = "4"},
new SelectListItem{ Text = "3 - Website Operator", Value = "3"},
new SelectListItem{ Text = "2 - Field Employee", Value = "2"},
new SelectListItem{ Text = "1 - Demonstration", Value = "1"}
};
return items;
}
}

Well it works, but I'm sure over time I will figure out a more efficient way to do this.
I did complete this 2 hours after the first posts time stamp.
In the Model, I change the Security Level to a string, and just casted it from int to string and back in Linq for my Entity Framework.
[Required]
[Display(Name = "Security Level")]
public string SecurityLevel { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, string> AdminSecurityLevels { get; set; }
[Edit] Persist across postbacks
In the Controller to make the values persist across postbacks, I found you do have to call the class function twice, once for ActionResult and once for ActionResult Post. So sa.AdminSecurityLevels is my Dictionary of Key Values.
sa.AdminSecurityLevels = SelectListHelper.GetAdminSecurityLevels();
In my Class, in App_Code, I made a helper that is called in the controller above.
I wanted to use IEnumerator, but could not figure out how to get it to work, so I went with Dictionary. I guess since my security levels are integers, and the HTML5 uses all strings in the option element, I just went with <<string string>>
public class SelectListHelper
{
public static Dictionary<string, string> GetAdminSecurityLevels()
{
return new Dictionary<string, string>
{
{"5 - Super Administrator", "5"},
{"4 - Management", "4"},
{"3 - Website Operator", "3"},
{"2 - Field Employee", "2"},
{"1 - Demonstration", "1"}
};
}
}
Finally the View, this part was hard to understand using Razor. I don't quite understand the use of m => m.SecurityLevel versus Model.AdminSecurityLevels or m versus Model.
The new SelectList converts the Dictionary to a Key Value Pair that Razor can use to create option elements out of the collection.
[Edit]
Now the weird part, is that I had to reverse the Key Value to Value Key. That part I don't understand.
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.AdminSecurityLevels, new { @class = "control-label" })
@Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.SecurityLevel,
new SelectList(Model.AdminSecurityLevels, "Value", "Key"), new { @class = "form-control" })
</div>
Final Thoughts on this, wow that was a lot of work just to populate a dropdownlist or radiobutton list. I suppose in my future, as I write more code for these list, I will build a collection of them such as states and countries, and I can just add to the model, call it in the controller and just add it to my razor statement in less than 60 seconds.
Getting the whole thing to work including the jquery.unobtrusive.validator, Bootstrap.Css, MVC in general as a first time for me was a pain in the ass. But flashing back to Webforms and using new Listitem did take me a while to figure out as well. Oh well, new technology, hopefully it pays off in the future for me.

Hi all,
Please help me.
I have a file upload control and "onchange" of it I'm calling a "javascript function" and through that javascript method I'm invoking a "event" in the code behind.
But when I'm trying to check whether there exists a file in the file upload control it always says "false".
Please suggest me that how can i get the uploaded file in the code behind.

There's a problem with your code.
Since we can't see your code, we can't tell you what the problem is.
