Hi, during beta testing we discovered connection pooling error messages . Therefore I have been going through the code and closing down the SqlDataReader objects wherever they have been left unclosed. What I need to know is how to close a datareader (or if there is a need at all to close) that is specified in the SelectStatement attribu...
I have a repeater control on an ASP.NET 2.0 web form. As I understanding it, all of the page's data-bound controls fire their binding events somewhere in between the Page_Load and the Page_PreRender events. However, my repeater's ItemDataBound event appears to be happening AFTER the PreRender event. How is this so and is there any ...

Previously, settings for deployments of an ASP.NET application were stored in multiple configuration files under the Web.config config sections using a KEY/VALUE format. We are moving these 'site module options' to the database for a variety of reasons. Here are the two options we are mulling over at the moment: 1. A single table with...
Hi guys, I remember when MS was developing Cassini - I believe they rolled it into VS 05/08, so I think this is a Cassini web server question. I am using Windows XP with Visual Studio 2008, and find it quite inconvenient when I want to test a web page/styling with multiple browsers and multiple OSes. Right now I have to deploy the c...

We have a web application that manages inventory for our computer support group. One of the things that we will be using this for is to drive a "Computers Currently In Use" map for our larger computer labs so that users can find an open computer more easily (the lab in our Main library has around 150 computers). The image used for the ...

While I know this can be simulated, it would be really great to have a way to take a URL (or the current rendered page), and turn it into an image which can be stored on the server. Is this crazy? Is there a way to do it? If so, ...

Our groups legacy ASP 3.0 web apps were able to take advantage of a global error file by setting up a custom error file within IIS's Custom Error's tab. I'm unable to find a similar solution for ASP.NET apps. Does anyone know if there is a way to have a centralized "Error.aspx" page (for example) that will trap errors for an entire a...
Just wondering if anyone has seen any usable progress bar for C# .net apps. My app takes about 20-60 secs to load and I would love to show users a progress bar while they wait. I saw this one but the sample site doesn't seem to work which doesn't inspire confidence. ...
In general at a fairly high level, and without building an entire CMS, what do I need to know about storing web page content (e.g. say several hundred articles and text up to approx. 2500 words in length) and photos in sql server in a templated web page design? Do I store the actual content in the db or store in the files on the server ...

Hi there, I have all my entities in a seperate project in my edmx file and I expose them to my client application using a WCF service. That means I don't have to give my client app a direct link to the project that contains the edmx file. That would be bad because it contines the object to query the database with. But only the entitie...

I've been given a prototype/mockup of a grid written in html and javascript (via ExtJS) that I now need to implement within an ASP.net web application. Does anyone have any pointers as to how to pass data to the grid (to a GroupingStore, specifically). I'd rather not have a proliferation of web services or helper pages returning XML/JS...
