i don't think so it would help me because i am using classic ASP.
please suggest me something for my form in asp.

First off, if at all possible I would strongly recoommend that you switch to ASP.NET - the framework is free, and if you don't want to use Notepad and can't afford Visual Studio, there are good, free tools like Web Matrix[^] available.

However, if you must... I pity you - you have some pretty gruesome coding ahead of you. Do a google search for "asp linked lists" - this is the first page that I came up with, and it has just what you're looking for:

problem with capturing value of selected submenuitem

4-Oct-07 22:06

It sonuds like to you need to either buy a book or do some serious online research... I would suiggest 4guysfromrolla[^], which has loads of very good tutorials and examples, and also the DataGrid Girl[^] who, despite the the rather ghastly pink does have some useful examples and links.

There are lots of reasons for avoiding frames anyway, but you can if you want. The only difference between ASP.NET and "plain" HTML is the server-side code - ASP.NET still uses HTML, and generate an HTML page in the end - that is, after all, what browsers require.

If you are using .NET 2.0 or above you can research Master Pages for your navigation issue; otherwise, or in any case, you just have to build a solution same as you would for any other website.

Good luck....

i am loading values of submenuitem from database at run time. now i want to store that selected submenuitem value for transferring to next page.can you suggest me how can i capture the value of selected submenuitem.
i am developing my website in visual studio2005

Re: problem with capturing value of selected submenuitem

I assume then that each submenuitem has a database ID number too, so you could just append that to the URL of each item when binding it....

eg, menuitems could link to:
page1.aspx?id=123
page2.aspx?id=34
etc

You can then read this value on the next page through a simple Request("id") call. If you really want to pass the actual menuitem text you could pass that instead, but you ought to Server.URLEncode it first...

How you set about this depends on how you are doing things - if using the Menu control in VS2005 your best bet is the MenuItemDataBound Event[^]

disable back button in IE using javascript

1-Sep-07 0:31

On IIS 6 (Windows Server 2003), ASP needs to be enabled in the Web Service Extensions. This should be the same on IIS 7 also right?

Javascript issue

I have a dropdown list or say htm tag.
I have written onchange event.

Its works fine in IE by accessing with mouse or keyboard.
The issue is in Firefox. In that it works fine if you select an item through mouse but if you select an item from keyboard or you change an item from keyboard the event does no fired.

Here is a sample code.

one
two
three

Thank You

Interstingly enough if you hit ENTER after then it DOES fire the event - you could get away with adding an onkeup attribute too, calling the same function

select onchange="javascript:alert('changed');" onkeyup="javascript:alert('changed');"

though whether that's the best solution or not I wouldn't like to guess...

The event doesn't fire while you are changing the value, but when you are done and move to the next field. This is the same way that the onchange event works on a text field.

But including it is just superflous. It does not harm or create negative effects either. Confused | :confused:

It's not superflous, as it's not ignored. It's harmless just because it happens to become a label instead.

Thank you Guffa for enlightening on the issue. Since, I think, the web browser defaults to JavaScript engine, it automatically understands the same. For Netscape and other single-script engines, I don't this should be a problem at all. Isn't it?

The javascript: protocol only has a meaning in an url. If you put it anywhere else, it's not a protocol any more. Instead, it happens to become a label instead, so it's just a name.

You could put most anything in a label:

onclick="vbscript:alert('Still Javascript');"<br />
<br />
onclick="ignore:alert('Not ignored');"<br />
<br />
onclick="onmouseover:alert('Still onclick');"

It's still just a label, and the name doesn't mean anything.
