Hi all, i'm looking to create some forums on a website and i was hoping someone could reccomend a few for me to have a look at. I want to do it in ASP.Net if at all possible as i'm a C# developer.

i don't know of any asp.net forums, but i've used one called phpBB before. it's quite easy to set up, there are some cool skins and mods for it, and although it uses php, i don't recall actually needing to worry about looking at code.
as is the case with all software, there have been some bugs and holes in the past, so make sure you get the latest version...
i'm not sure what the url is, but i think it's http://www.phpbb.com/[^].

Hi all
When leaving a page, I want to have a popup message to make sure whether you want to leave the page. Could anyone help me out to write this in javascript or vbsript, please?
Thanks very much!

Is it possible to take the values from two pages(and two forms of course) and combine them on one page? I tried that but the values cannot be there at the same time--- they appeared one by one. I need them appear on the same page at the same time so that I can display the combined value on the same page.
Thanks.

If nothing else works, here is a realy dirty way of doing it: Make a page with three frames, lets say 3 rows. The first row (frame1) spans all available space and the last two take up 1 pixel. In the last two rows (frame2 and frame3), place the pages with the two forms.
Use javascript to find the values of the forms. I believe the dom for this is something like frame2.document.form1.total.value (depending on your form name and input box name). This will allow you to grab those totals and take them into frame1.
Hopefully, you will find a better way to do it, because my way kinda sucks.

How do I find the caret position of a ContentEditable DIV ?

I have some javascript code in my page that calls the document.getElementById method. This usually works fine however in IE 6, after I have downloaded a file using the File Download dialog, I get an unspecified error. Whenever I try to access document this error occurs but only when the page is within a frame. I have tried using window.frames["frameMain"].document but that causes an unspecified error as well.
Does anyone have any clues as to what is going on.

could you post some of the code? Also, is you javascript in a .js file, or inside of the html file?
|

The javascript is in a js file but I created a small test with the javascript in the page and it didn't make any difference.
I think it may be due to the fact that the download happens on a postback. In my click event for my button I set the following properties of the response then read the file and BinaryWrite the file to it.
HttpContext.Current.Response.Buffer = true;
HttpContext.Current.Response.Clear();
HttpContext.Current.Response.Charset = "";
HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = ContentType;
HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader( "content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + DownloadFileName );
Simply adding an anchor that points to the file doesn't cause the error however the file is created dynamically so thats not really an option.

Hmmm...I'm stumped. At this point, I'd have to work with it hands-on to even know what other questions to ask. Sorry.

In this line you're comparing a string type to an integer type. The value of numberCount will never increment. Try
if(('0' <= mychar)&&(mychar <= '9'))
instead.

On what level can this fail to be a spectacularly bad idea ? You're running jscript on the server side ? And coding the DB access directly into the page script ?

You can't program a database in javascript. You can use javascript in the web page to make the user-experience better, but the data handling needs to be done on the back end with something like asp, .net, php, perl, etc.

I have an order form in ASP. One order can have many products. With so many products it's impossible to put that on a combo. So the user must type product code. That's OK for the user. How to validate so that the user didn't enter two same products on one order. I tried using functions which access Array. So when the user chooses a product it will be sent to the Array, and so on. Is there a better way for this? I think this is dangerous because I have to declare an Array and delete it repeatedly. Thanks.

Is it possible to change the approach of how the user selects an item? If there are too many to put in one list, perhaps you can drill down through categories and sub-categories. Take a look at a website like home depot. They sell thousands of items, but they don't list all items on any one page. You have to go into a department, select a category inside that department, and there might be sub-category after sub-category (nearly infinately in terms of possibility) until you find the product itself.

Thanks. I can't drilll through categories and sub-categories. All the same type. I'm planning to build a class for the list.

hi
i want to know which one is better for web programming?
.NET or PHP ?
thanks
|
|
|

personally, i prefer php.
pro's:
it's faster, has more control over the layout, appearance and general look of the page. it also connects to a multitude of databases, and has a huge function set.
con's:
it isn't object orientated, it's nothing like windows programming (if that's what you're used to), you generally have to do a lot more to get things going.
in terms of asp.net,
pro's:
it's very much like windows forms programming, you don't have to know much about html or javascript or anything else to make your site work
con's:
it's slow, it has very little control over the layout and appreance of the page, it can initially only connect to ms sql server, it only runs on iis, it's cumbersome, it makes heavy use of javascript - meaning that it doesn't work in all browsers
i prefer php due to the fact that i have greater control over the pages and i don't have to worry about licensing costs when connecting to a number of the databases. i can also set up a server anywhere, on windows or linux, which means that no matter what environment i'm in, i can still develop my php sites/pages.
the choice depends on you. there are pro's and con's to both. imho, php's pro's outweight it's con's, and i personally think that some of it's con's are actually pro's, and that's what sells php for me.
universal rule of thumb applies tho: ymmv - your mileage may vary

Soapbox! 
Not everything you wrote is true. E.g ASP.NET isn't slower than PHP. Btw, is PHP finaly compiled language? For layout/browser support - you CAN have FULL control over what you send to browser.... list goes on, I'd really prefer other place for this discussion.
For your defence, well, it wasn't easy question.
