web stats recommendations

I read somewhere else that this error could be caused by using reserved words in your query. Try adding square brackets around your table and field names:

e.g. SELECT DISTINCT [Position] FROM [applicant] ORDER BY [position]

Hi,

I wanna have your opinion on these web stats, which one you'll recommend for advanced web stats:

1. Smarter Stats
2. AWstats
3. webalizer

Smart stats is new to me.

Webalizer I think is just terrible. I can provide more details.

AWStats is what I reach for again and again and again on a Windows or Linux web server.

There have been joys too great to be described in words, and there have been griefs upon which I have not dared to dwell, and with these in mind I say, climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are naught without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste, look well to each step, and from the beginning think what may be the end. - Edward Whymper

            routes.MapRoute(
                "Default", // Route name
                "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
                new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
        );

            routes.MapRoute(
                "viewstudent", // Route name
                "view/viewstudent", // URL with parameters
                new { controller = "Movie", action = "Select", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults

Hello.

Order of routes matters in MVC so in example above the default route will always hit for viewsudent. Swap them and it should work.

Take also a loot at this blog post[^] for debugging MVC routes.

The "Default" route map should always be placed at the end. Try swapping the two MapRoute and it will work.

Ajax page method call during form validation

Jay Royall18-Oct-12 22:43

18-Oct-12 22:43

Hi,

I have a registration form which consists of, amongst others, an email field. When the user enters their email address, the onChange event is fired and a server side page method is called which checks the email address and returns a boolean value. This works fine when invoked from the onChange event of the textbox.

The problem occurs when the submit button is clicked; the submit button invokes the Javascript validation function and posts back if the form is valid, however, because the email validation involves an AJAX server side call, the function isn't waiting for the response and so causes the form to be submitted regardless of the email validation result. I hope I have explained this adequately but if not I have included a cut down version of my page:

ASP.NET

<script type="text/javascript">

    var pageIsValid;
    var emailAddressMessage;

    function ValidateForm() {

        pageIsValid = true;

            PageMethods.EmailAddressIsValid(document.getElementById('<%= txtNewMemberEmailAddress.ClientID %>').value, ValidateEmailAddressSuccess, ValidateEmailAddressFailed);

        // other validation calls have been left out

        if (pageIsValid == false) {
                    alert('Some information is either missing or invalid.  Hover your mouse over the red crosses for more information');
            }

            return pageIsValid;
    }


        function ValidateEmailAddressSuccess(result) {
            if (result == false) {
                document.getElementById('<%= imgNewMemberEmailAddress.ClientID %>').src = "/Images/cross.png";

                emailAddressMessage = 'The email address you have entered is already in use';

                pageIsValid = false;
            }
            else {
                document.getElementById('<%= imgNewMemberEmailAddress.ClientID %>').src = "/Images/tick.png";

                emailAddressMessage = 'This field is valid';
            }
        }
        function ValidateEmailAddressFailed(result) {
            document.getElementById('<%= imgNewMemberEmailAddress.ClientID %>').src = "/Images/cross.png";

            alert(result.get_message());
        }

</script>

<asp:Button runat="server" ID="btnRegister" Text="Register" CssClass="button" OnClientClick='Javascript:return ValidateForm();' />

If anyone could suggest a better way of doing this it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jay

You could try taking the "A" out of "AJAX".

Add the script below, and then change your PageMethods.EmailAddressIsValid call to SyncPageMethods.EmailAddressIsValid.

Type.registerNamespace("System.Net");

That looks like it will only work with .Net on the client side (i.e. on Windows), and probably only in IE.

Edit: also, synchronous HTTP requests lock the browser process (i.e. at least the page you're looking at) until it returns, which can potentially be the TCP timeout time. They're a pretty bad idea.

Nope. It works in Firefox, Chrome and Opera here. It's using the built-in XmlHttp object, which was added to all browsers several years ago.

You need to add an extra step to your submission process, if you want AJAX validation before submitting. At the moment your workflow looks like

Press button -> client validation -> post to server

... as a synchronous process. You need to do

Press button -> client validation -> send AJAX validation request (...) receive AJAX response -> post to server

The (...) is an asynchronous wait with an event handler set. As for all AJAX queries you need to handle long delays and dropped connections gracefully.

Do you actually need this? I would think that people would expect a 'Submit' button to submit a postback, and for it to return them to the form after a postback with server-side validation errors would be acceptable. You will always have to do the server side validation anyway, so this is purely a user convenience feature.

Jay Royall19-Oct-12 3:04

19-Oct-12 3:04

You're right actually, I probably don't need this feature. I have implemented server side validation which will ensure that invalid data doesn't get saved, so I suppose the post back is only a minor inconvenience to the user. There will still be the inline validation so the likelihood is that the user will correct their errors before submitting anyway (or maybe not!).

Thanks a lot Smile | :)

how we can add source code in our running projects which given by code project website

jkirkerx19-Oct-12 10:08

jkirkerx

19-Oct-12 10:08

wow that got complicated

submit button > client script- if valid postback

So I would just add the onClientClick="return validate_Form();"

And write a simple function first in javascript/jquery

test if the fields are empty
test the field data
regex the email address,

if validation completes, then return true to fire the postback

Then you can get fancy, and add an ajax call to check for duplicate email address,

I would use onblurr for that, so it only fires once, and if a duplicate exist, focus the email field again.
