Use the following JS function

function checkBackSpace()
  {
           if(event.keyCode==8)
           {
                  alert('You pressed BackSpace');
                 return false;
           }
  }

and put it on body tag as

<body onkeydown="return checkBackSpace();">

Now you will get a message.

Cheers!!

I think Brij is right. But a little changes are required in this code. Otherwise it will alert when user hits backspace key in a textbox. So here is the answer below

In JS code
---------------------
function checkBackSpace(event)
{
      event = event || window.event;
      var target = event.target || event.srcElement;

      if(event.keyCode==8 && (!(target.type =="text" || target.type =="textarea"))
      {
            alert('You pressed BackSpace');
            return false;
      }
      return true;
}

and put it on body tag as
-------------------------------
<body   onkeydown="return checkBackSpace(event);>

Hi
here is your code below

function checkBackSpace(event)
{
         event = event || window.event;
         var target = event.target || event.srcElement;

         if(event.keyCode==8)
         {
               if((!(target.type =="text" || target.type =="textarea"))
               {
                     alert('You pressed BackSpace');
                     return false;
                  }

For those that want to know.

The problem was not my application as I knew all along, the problem turned out to be how the initial page was called in the various browsers.

If I omitted the www. of default.com/mypage.aspx the Session ID was created for mysite.com/default.aspx but when I called the response page via the call back, the window.location.url redirected to www.mysite.com/responsepage.aspx a new session was started with new session objects resulting in the strange behavior.

To those who answered, thanks your input did help in pointing me in the right direction.

Can I embed an ActiveX control in a ASP.NET MVC View?

Hi,

I'm trying to embed an ActiveX control in a website developed using the Sharp (S#arp) Architecture Framework[^], which leverages the ASP.NET MVC Framework & NHibernate. However, I'm struggling to get it to work. Sigh | :sigh:

Is it possible to embed an ActiveX control?

I'm also thinking of an alternative, where I could add a Web form to the project & that could contain the ActiveX. (I suppose it should work). Any alternative ideas if its not possible to embed an ActiveX control in a ASP.NET MVC view?

Thanks,

ND

Hi, you should check IIS: the upper limit of thread, then check whether you have closed every transaction in your code or not.

Good luck.

Session usage

Is it reasonable to put my objects into the Session between pages. I have reduced my objects to fairly small size with no lists or collections, generally between 4 and 10 fields. I am currently pushing these into the Session object assuming that this is quicker than a trip to the database (and will it piss off the host DiscountASP.net).

What is the recommended method of transferring IDs between pages, I am currently using the URL but I know this is not good as it exposes details about the system that should not be exposed

Transferring id values is OK so long as they are secured otherwise, ie if you use id=7 a user can't type id=8 and get that id unless they have permission. Often you can use post parameters to "hide" the information from the user but the security still needs to exist.

While it is very reasonable to put some objects in Session I prefer hitting the db and having completely stateless ASP.NET applications. Any host that doesn't want you using their DB has problems.

Also, one pattern I use when using Session is to have a SessionManager class and I require that all access to properties in the Session be from that class. That way it is easy to see what is in the Session and Where, etc.

Looks fine to me. Make sure you remove them once you are done and your session don't have huge timeout limits. Performance will impact badly only when site has got huge traffic. In all other cases, it should be fine.

If Ids are secured, don't pass it through URL. If not, passing through URL is fine. It will produce hackable URLs and hackable URLs are very helpful.

Can you elaborate on securing the IDs, currently they are simply integers (?CustomerID=1) in the URL

Well, if you are sending secured information through URL, few things should be taken care.

Encrypt the values and send the encrypted text. The encrypted text may have special characters and you probably have to encode it before using in URL.
A second level of check should be performed after you receive the id. For example, you have a page that allows editing personal information of current user with a url like (edit.aspx?id=20) where 20 is the current user's id. Since the id is clearly visible, a user can change it to 30 and edit that users personal information. So after receiving the id, you need to check whether the current user logged in has the same id specified in the URL. It is good to do this second level of checking even the values are encrypted.

After all, if you can, avoid passing secured information through URL. Smile | :)

Analyse the data what you can put in Cache or in Session.If there is some global data that is common for all users,put it in Cache and put Data which is specific to user those put it in Session only.It will improve the performance.

When passing IDs through URL,encode it and decode it at the recieving end and validate it.

Encode: means you are changing the actual value to different value using some pattern/value
Decode: means get the actual value from the encoded value.(You can get the actual value because you have the pattern/formula for encoding but no other person can get the actual value).

Session is good if there is less data. As Session creates separately for each user. In your case this is fine if you are going to store few field in session.
