I would prefer you to use AJAX but here is one other solution.
From javascript make a call to dopostback method with eventtarget and arguments (if reuqired) and in Page Load method check for the event target and call the C# method. Remember this is dirty trick.
JavaScript (JS File)
__doPostBack('CALL_MY_METHID','');
ASPX Code Behind
void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
....
....
this.GetPostBackEventReference(this, string.Empty);
string eventTarget = (this.Request["__EVENTTARGET"] == null) ? string.Empty : this.Request["__EVENTTARGET"];
if (eventTarget == "CALL_MY_METHID")
{
CallMyMethod();
return;
}
....
....
}
Be careful, there is no Undo Button(Ctrl+Z) in life.

.NET is parsed by the server. Javascript is parsed by the browser. If you have page that is already loaded that you want to process a .NET page, asking the server to do so via Javascript is the best way.

If we are calling a server side function we can use a number of way.
I use mostly static PageMethods ([System.Web.Services.WebMethod]) using Ajax or HTTP Handlers. Can anyone please tell me which method is better and the pros and cons of each.
I keep performance and response time the first criteria.
Thanks.

AJAX and HttpHandler has no relation. I am not sure what you meant.

We can call server side function by
1. writing a static function ([System.Web.Services.WebMethod]) in code behind using PageMethods.
2. calling an HTTP Handler and returning the string.
by using Ajax.
My Question is which method is faster. I want to know about the pros and cons of each.

I am still not getting you. HttpHanlder can't return a string. It sits in the page request pipeline and handles request.
|

An HttpHandler can definitely return a string...it just processes an http request and responds with something...doesn't have to be a full page. It does, however, incurr the cost of full ASP.NET pipeline processing, which combined with the effort to write one, makes them less appealing than a PageMethod.

PageMethods behave as web services, but offer a bit more capabilities than a web service. Unlike a full postback (i.e. UpdatePanel) which will incurr the overhead of processing the full ASP.NET pipeline, a PageMethod has a bit of a truncated pipeline that sets up the context, but bypasses all the rest of the event chain required for a full page postback. An HttpHandler is like a Page (in fact, a Page is an HttpHandler), and as such it will require the full event chain to be fired. A PageMethod is pretty much the most efficient way to perform an AJAX call that requires Session and HttpContext access, but not Request/Response access. A WebService might be faster, but there is SOAP overhead that could hurt performance.
Given that HttpHandlers and WebServices require a bit more work to write than a PageMethod, and the extra processing cost for both, PageMethods are generally the best solution when a full postback (async via UpdatePanel or not) is not needed.

Hi, I am new to HTML UI design. I am having a requirement similar to http://deluxe-tabs.com/templates/[^]
We needs to create tabs like Glass style, Vertical style, etc. For each tab, we needs to have its respective div tag.
Can you please suggest any good article, where I can learn the basics of the same?
Thanks

I know if you write your own AJAX code there's no reason for that to happen, but are those controls compatible with those browsers ?

use the break point and check where the error is coming.
|
|
|
|

or try in update panel there is content template and Triggers.
In Triggers,u set the <asp:autopostback id="YOURCONTROLID" xmlns:asp="#unknown">..
try it.

Each browser has a different way to call an XmlHttp request. Because of this, your AJAX script needs to try all of them until it finds the correct one. You can add something like this to your script to initiate the proper request-
function GetXmlHttpObject() {
var xmlHttp=null;
try {
xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch (e) {
try {
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e) {
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
}
return xmlHttp;
}
Try that out. Good luck!

You're asked this three times now. Have you tried any of the things you've been told ? If so, try telling us what you tried and why it doesn't work. If you're just asking blindly over and over, make that clear, so that people know not to bother answering.
