During an ASP.NET page load I'm opening and closing multiple System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnections inside multiple controls contained in the page. I thought it would be a good idea instead to create a "pool" of connections and when opening a connection check to see if the connection string matches that of an open connection in the pool, a...

Excuse my title if it's confusing, but I don't know how else to describe this, except in the long explanation below: I would like to create a multidimensional, templated, data bound, repeating ASP.NET control, with paging and sorting. I.e. You specify how many columns and rows per page, so items are displayed across and down, e.g. [da...

I need to edit the web.config file on a live Sharepoint environment, but I'm unsure what will happen if I do (I want to output custom errors). Will this cause the IIS6 worker process to recycle? Will active users lose their session state because of this? Or can I safely edit the file? ...
To Clarify to all this problem absolutely does not stem from rebinding of the controls and the value does not remain the initial value after binding. I have a DropDownList on an aspx page which is being used in multiple projects. Along the life cycle of the page the SelectedValue is changed prior to the handling of the SelectedIndexCha...

Is it possible to split large ASP.NET-pages into pieces? JSP has the jsp:include directive. Is there any equivivalent in ASP.NET I'm not interested in reusing the pieces. I just want to organize the HTML/ASP code. Isn't User Controls and Master Pages overkill for doing this? ...
Sorry, I couldn't figure out a good way to phrase my real question. I run a high-traffic ASP.NET site on a 64-bit machine. I have IIS running in 32-bit mode, however, due to some legacy components of the app. I am running this particular web app inside an application pool that has the web garden option on (running 6 processes inside a...
I am trying to fix some bugs in a product I inherited, and I have this snippet of javascript that is supposed to hilight a couple of boxes and pop up a confirm box. What currently happens is I see the boxes change color and there is a 5 or so second delay, then it's as if the missing confirm just accepts itself. Does anyone smarter tha...
I am building a product that we are eventually going to white-label. Right now I am trying to figure out the best way to facilitate these requirements programmatically so the user can update the basic design of the site (ie header color, etc) via their profile/settings form. Requirements: - User can update the logo (this is complete) ...
