am using visual studio 2005 and I am trying to create a popup calender so
when a user click on a image on the main form, a calender will then popup,
the user will select a date and the date will then be passed back to the main
form and populate a textbox. it works fine. but when i used master page for
all my pages and i put the textbox inside the content , the calender pops up
but when i select the date nothing happens .. the textbox was not populated
with the selected date from the calender and the window was not closed.

Here is my code

Default Page/Parent Window/

function GetDate(CtrlName)
{
ChildWindow = window.open('Calendar.aspx?FormName=' + document.forms[0].name + '&CtrlName=' + CtrlName, "PopUpCalendar", "width=270,height=300,top=200,left=200,toolbars=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,resizable=no");
}

<asp:textbox id="txtStartDate" runat="server">
Start Date

Code for the Calendar Page/Child Page/

<asp:content id="Content1" contentplaceholderid="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="Server">

function ReturnDate()
{

window.opener.document.forms["<%= strFormName %>"].elements["<%=strCtrlName %>"].value = "<%= strSelectedDate %>";
window.close();
}

function Close()

{
window.close();
}

Public strFormName As String
Public strCtrlName As String
Public strSelectedDate As String

Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)

If Not IsPostBack Then
myCalendar.SelectedDate = System.DateTime.Now()
End If

strSelectedDate = myCalendar.SelectedDate.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
strFormName = Request.QueryString("FormName")
strCtrlName = Request.QueryString("CtrlName")

End Sub

Sub myCalendar_SelectionChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
strSelectedDate = myCalendar.SelectedDate.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")

End Sub
</script
<asp:Calendar id="myCalendar" runat="server" OnSelectionChanged="myCalendar_SelectionChanged">
</asp:Calendar>

<input id="btnReturnDate" onclick="Javascript:ReturnDate()" type="button" value="Select" runat="Server" />
<input id="btnCloseWindow" onclick="Javascript:Close()" type="button" value="Close" runat="Server" />

</asp:Content>

Hi,
I am also suffered with that problem. The problem is when you put the controls inside master page:
other container controls that
the runtime engine seems to change the names of the controls and adds
the '$' Character to them. You might want to view the rendered HTML
source sent to the browser.

And change your code according to those control name changes in masterpage.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
In master page you can find the content place holder <asp:content ..="">

window.open('popup.aspx?textbox=ctl00_Body_Wizard1_txtBoxElectionDate1' here ctl00_Body_txtBoxElectionDate1 is the my text box name which i got be seeing the view source. use that name here.
And In popup.aspx I used like this:
String strScript = "window.opener.document.forms['aspnetForm']." + control.Value + ".value = '";
strScript += calDate.SelectedDate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy");
strScript += "';self.close()";
strScript += "</" + "script>";
RegisterClientScriptBlock("anything", strScript);
aspnetForm is the the form name which contain the textbox to put the selected date.

Check your code.
Hope this helps.

Hi All,

I am looking for very efficient solution for this problem. Here is my problem description - I have serveral database,
from which I have to pull data (All databases differ in physical design implementation), and insert them in standardized
common database. Let me give you an example

Database - 1
Table - 1
Col_1 - int
Col_2 - text
Col_3 - float

Database - 2
Table - 2
Col_1 - int
Col_2 - int
Col_3 - float
Col_4 - text
Col_5 - text

Common database
col_1 (id) - int
col_2 - int
col_3 - float
col_4 - text

So mapping between database - 1 and common database would be
col_1 --> col_2
col_2 --> col_4
col_3 --> col_3

and between database - 2 and commond database would be
col_1 --> col_2
col_2 --> col_2
col_3 --> col_3
col_4 --> col_4
col_5 --> col_4

How can I achive this? One more thing, this mapping can be changed during runtime.

Thanks,
AP

Hi
I have been playing around with a password hashing scheme for my application

But i keep getting an error message when it executes the command object

i get the error

Unable to cast object of type 'System.byte[]' to type 'system.inconvertible'

Any suggestions?

Sub CreateAccount(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim literror As New LiteralControl
'1. Create a connection
'Create connection string to pass database, string holds login information to mySQL,
Dim connectionString As String
connectionString = "Server=localhost; ;database=ftp1;"

'Builds .net mysql connection and passes connection string into method
Dim connection As New MySqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
'2. Create a command object for the query
Dim strSQL As String = _
"INSERT INTO Useraccount(Username,Password) " & _
"VALUES(?Username, ?Password)"
Dim objCmd As New MySqlCommand(strSQL, connection)

'3. Create parameters
Dim paramUsername As MySqlParameter
paramUsername = New MySqlParameter("?Username", SqlDbType.VarChar, 25)
paramUsername.Value = txtUsername.Text
objCmd.Parameters.Add(paramUsername)

'Encrypt the password
Dim md5Hasher As New MD5CryptoServiceProvider()

Dim hashedBytes As Byte()
Dim encoder As New UTF8Encoding()

hashedBytes = md5Hasher.ComputeHash(encoder.GetBytes(txtPwd.Text))

Dim paramPwd As MySqlParameter
paramPwd = New MySqlParameter("?Password", SqlDbType.Binary, 16)
paramPwd.Value = hashedBytes
objCmd.Parameters.Add(paramPwd)

'Insert the records into the database
connection.Open()
objCmd.ExecuteReader()
connection.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
literror.Text = ex.Message
MsgBox(ex.Message)

End Try
Response.Redirect("userhome.aspx")

End Sub

BAD USER!

So, instead of continuing the thread you started in the VB.NET forum, you decided to spam the ASP.NET forum with the same question? Do you really understand how forums work?

So, did you double check the items I brought up in my previous reply in the VB.NET forum, or did you just ignore them entirely?

I appologise all I will need to get of this hash and salt, apparently hash and pepper can be good?

Yes i did take account to what you said, and i believe SHA2 is a more secure encryption? and i have now ported my code to that.

Although I am still being hit with the same problem, I checked my field types and lengths and still no joy Frown | :(

with that either

Try converting your byte() array to a Base64 string, then save that to the database.
