URL Changes when using Server Transfer, why?

hi all,

I'm facing a problem while redirecting from one page to another using the Server.Transfer() method.
I understand that when using Server.Transfer the url in the address bar would remain the same, but thats not the case in my application.

i use the following code in my homepage (FirstPage.aspx)
Server.Transfer("SecondPage.aspx",true);

so, when redirected from the first page to the secondpage, the url in the address bar remains as "FirstPage.aspx".....i'm happy so far.
but, in my second page i have certain postback events like selecting a value from a dropdownlist.
here's where the problem arises. With the post back event the url in the address bar turns to "SecondPage.aspx"
?????
what do i do to keep the url in the address bar static?
i prefer the url in the address bar to remain as "FirstPage.aspx" through out the whole application.
Could some one please guide me

You have to give the proper permission to asp.net user , although its not safe. You can impersonate to another user which have sufficient permission for that purpose.

Event Handler Wizard

I never had any problems creating and finding event handlers using the C++ V6.0 ClassWizard but I don't find C# so easy to use in this respect. I have resorted to editing the code without the aid of a wizard on many occasions but I'm sure this can't be the best way - I imagine I'm missing something obvious Confused | :confused:

. I have two specific questions:

How do you add an event handler to a Toolbar button? Double clicking doesn't do anything, if you right click there is no "add event handler" option, and the Control Events button does not appear on the Properties view. All these things work with Dialog buttons, why not with Toolbar buttons?

How do you create and locate handlers for UPDATE COMMAND UI messages? The V6.0 ClassWizard used to show these clearly but I can't find any reference to them on the C# Event Handler Wizard or the Properties view.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards

Cliff, .NET is a bit different than MFC.
By doubleclicking a control in the visual designer you'll get an event handler created for the control's default event.
If you want to add any other eventhandler visually, then you'll have to use the Control Events button to show the events a selected control supplies (and which are marked designer-visible).

Nevertheless, adding event handlers manually is just as easy.
For example, adding a click event handler to a button in VS.NET can be achieved by typing
myButton.Click += and then TAB twice.
VS.NET finishes the statement and adds a new myButton_Click() event handler with the correct signature.

If the Control Events button doesn't appear for a certain control then this control doesn't have any public visible events.

Regarding the click on a ToolButton, this event is fired by the ToolBar containing the button.

And for menus, there's the Popup event that's fired just when a menu is about to appear, so you can use this event to enable/disable your menu items.

Thankyou for your clear reply.

I now understand why the system behaves as it does, and I will try your method of adding handlers manually.

I'm still puzzled why the designers of .NET chose this route though. I wonder if they planned to discard MFC's wizard support for the creation of ToolButton and Update handlers, or if this was an unintended side effect of design rationalisation.

UPDATE_COMMAND_UI

After a bit more exploration I found that I had indeed missed something:

If you right click on menu items and select the "add event handler" option, the Event Handler Wizard appears and gives you the option to create or edit COMMAND and UPDATE_COMMAND_UI messages - so that's where they're hidden!

The rule seems to be: right click on the thing you want to create a handler for and the Event Handler Wizard will provide pretty much the same functionality as MFC's ClassWizard - except that it doesn't work for toolbar buttons because you don't get an opportunity to call it up.

I suppose one way round this is always to build a menu item first, attach handlers to it, then build a toolbar button with the same ID - and it will share the same handlers. Perhaps it is good practice to replicate every toolbar function in a menu, so maybe this approach makes sense. On the other hand, I don't see why a right click on the toolbar shouldn't offer the "add event handler" option. The treatment of toolbar buttons seems inconsistent with that of menu items and dialog buttons.

Best Regards

Double scrollbar in datagrid?

obby5-Sep-04 4:16

Hi,

I'm using a Datagrid control, bound to a dataview, with several threads updating the dataview by adding rows to it. The datagrid updates fine until the scroll bar appears and then i get a situation where two scrollbars appear instead of one (two vertical and two horizontal scrollbars).
The scrollbar is not a part of any panel and stands independently in the form.

I used a code template found in this site to build the data grid. Updating it is done simply by adding rows to the table of the dataview object.

Here is the code to generate the scrollbar:

System.Windows.Forms.DataGridTableStyle DGStyle =
new DataGridTableStyle():
DataGridTextBoxColumn textColumn;
foreach (DataColumn dc in eventsTable.Columns)
{
textColumn = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
textColumn.MappingName = dc.ColumnName;
textColumn.HeaderText = dc.Caption;
textColumn.Width = 200;
textColumn.Alignment = System.Windows.Forms.HorizontalAlignment.Left ;
textColumn.ReadOnly = true;
DGStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(textColumn);
}
DGStyle.MappingName = eventsTable.TableName;
DGStyle.AlternatingBackColor = Color.Gainsboro;
DGStyle.AllowSorting = false;
DGStyle.ReadOnly = true;
LogGrid.TableStyles.Clear();
LogGrid.TableStyles.Add(DGStyle);
eventsView = new DataView(eventsTable);
LogGrid.DataSource = eventsView;

That's not the best solution. A better way is to change the Anchor property. It selects which sides of the control are not allowed to move on a resize.

Doesn't Yahoo just use regular POP and SMTP protocols? Certainly, I download my Yahoo mail into a regular email client.

I'm assuming they are external to Yahoo. For $19.99 per year you can get a POP connection (along with other benefits - like 2Gb mail account) - If you signed up before a certain date I think you can get a POP connection just for signing up to receive certain offers in your mail.

Currently, i am developing a DLL (Class Library) that will be used by third party. I found that the user have difficulties to understand what is the purpose of the Functions that i write. D'Oh! | :doh:

What i want to achieve is something like when we create an instance of string during development time, and when i select the function "GetType()", then the description "Get the System.Type of the current instance." will prompted.

Confused | :confused:

Can anybody tell me how to do this?
Can i use Attributes?
