I'm curious to know people's preferences... I've recently gone head-first into jQuery and I am loving it. However, I'm finding that I'm replacing a lot of (somewhat trivial) backend (tech: ASP.NET) functions with tiny jQuery functions. For instance, rather than assign a navigation button as a back-end control and change its class when i...
How to close jQuery thickbox from server side - I want to cause the thickbox (frame style) to be closed from a line in the server - when an action is done etc. I use the thickbox to show a file upload dialog, and once the upload is complete, i wanna dismiss the thickbox from the server's code behind (just like it would do with the 'Clos...
I want to create a webservice that allows users to enter the longitude and latitude for a particular building. Buildings will belong to a broader category called a Region. If a specific building does not exist in a region the user could add the longitude and latitude data through the webservice. Similarly if a user finds data to be in...

Has any one faced this? using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.W...
Hi all, we have recently added a new feature to our software - preview generation for documents that are uploaded and stored on the server. We did this the following way: The user uploads a document; Once the user opens the document information card, the preview for the recently uploaded document is issued (the info regarding the prev...
Hello all, I've finally figured out how to make all my millions of tabs (not that many really) wrap properly. Now, I want to fire a server side event whenever someone clicks on a tab. After some thorough Google searching, I thought I had struck pure gold with this: This stuff is in the header of my aspx page: <script type="text/javasc...
Are there any HTTP Headers I could use to grab the entire referrer URL using a webserver/server-side scripting? Including query string, et cetera? ...
I've been told by my hosting company that Python is installed on their servers. How would I go about using it to output a simple HTML page? This is just as a learning exercise at the moment, but one day I'd like to use Python in the same way as I currently use PHP. ...
I have a user control that contains a gridview and a ModalPopupExtender (MPE). I'm using the MPE to force user decisions after certain ItemCommands from the gridview using the server-side Show() method. Showing the popup and getting postbacks or client-side scripts to execute from the popup both work beautifully. The issue at hand is t...
Hi, I don't know how to ask this question that's why I'm going to simulate what I need, some developers make what I need by rendering javascript with php. A simple sample file would look like: my_javascript_file.php <?php include "my_class.php"; ?> $(document).ready(function(){ $.ajax({ url: "<?php $my_obj->post_url(); ?>...

I have an input button on an ASP.NET form, but I want the text displayed to come from a server side resource file. The following syntax fails, and I can't enclose it in a literal because the input tag cannot contain any other tags: <input id="btnX" type="button" disabled="disabled" value='<%$Resources:res,Button.Text%>' /> Any possi...
I have noticed that some of my ajax-heavy sites (ones I visit, not ones I have built), have certain auto-refresh features. For example, in GMail, if I get a new message, I see the new message without a page reload. It's the same with the Facebook browser-based IM client. From what I can tell, there aren't any java applets handling the se...
I'm still debating whether I want to do this or not but what I'm considering is preventing users from entering hyperlinks into a HTML form in my app. This is to avoid spammy links from showing up for other uses of the app since the app is based on user generated content. This is a Rails app, so I could do some backend validations on the...
I've heard of ASP.NET compiled DLLs which only works on Windows Server, but I would like to know if there are any other compiled server side languages?, maybe even ones for Apache server? Installation of the runtime shouldn't be a problem because I will have physical access to the Unix/Windows servers, but if it is a CGI plugin its an a...
So the short version of this is: Can I traverse only the elements within the matched element of the selectors before the each()? Or is there a simpler way of getting what I want without an each() loop? I thought this would be much easier, which makes me think I'm just missing some fundamental principle of element traversing with jquer...
This seems like a somewhat common issue and I'm wondering what the common pitfalls, best practices, best approach, security concerns, etc., are when creating javascript on the server to be later loaded client side. FWIW, I'm doing this in Ruby and I'm using JQuery as well. It's basically a form builder. Here's what I'm doing: I have an...
