I'm moving itmes from one ASP.NET ListBox control to another ListBox control from client-side. It works on the client-side but when I tried to count items in destination ListBox on the server-side, it's always nothing. Below, is the jQuery code used to add/remove items from ListBox control. <script type="text/javascript"> $(document...
Say I have 5 buttons on a page, numbered 1-5. When one is clicked, a value with a viewtate getter/setter assigns this the value of the button clicked. If I am checking for a value in Page_Init() / OnInit(), after the postback has occured, the value will always be empty/null. Is this correct? If so, is there anything else I can do th...
Is there a way to make Episerver leave the HTML id attribute alone and more importantly how much work is that? I know you could also remove the viewstate, how much work is that? I'm not here to start a discussion about semantics and optimization, whether or not a CMS should touch the front-end code is a long debate. I just need to know...
Well the title basically explains the problem pretty good, I have a hierarchy of n-level depth that I would like to display in a number or cascading dropdown lists. When making a choice in the first dropdown list all child nodes for that choice should be populated in another dropdown list next to the first, and for every choice in that s...
How can I determine what states are possible for a particular view? I see that the View class defines all the possible states. Does this mean practically that all views can be in all states? For example, I am working with ListView. When I add the listSelector attribute, my StateListDrawable item "state_focused" works but "state_selec...
I have derived my own class ControlStateDropDownList which extends DropDownList. As its name suggests, its purpose is to use the ControlState instead of the ViewState to store the SelectedIndex. AutoPostBack is set to true. This is a requirement because this derived DropDownList needs to be inside an ASPxGridView column, and the ASPxGri...
I understand how to turn off ViewState encryption for asp.net web applications. I want to know if I should. My question is more from a performance stand point than a security one (All of our traffic is on a private network and we do not store any sensitive data in the viewstate). Before I dedicate hours of setting up tests scenarios...
I'm working with dynamic fields in ASP.NET due to a very specifc and rigid end-user requirement that would take 2 hours just to explain. Suffice it to say, I can't make the requirement go away. Anyway, I have a working solution in place; no problems with controls loading, rendering or maintaining their ViewState. This is what my OnL...
I have a gridview with an enormous viewstate that I am attempting to shrink. I have turned the viewstate off in the control(which the gridview is in) but this seems to have done next to nothing in terms of the page size. Now the gridview has buttons and dropdowns in it, which I know add to the size. But cannot be helped. Now short or r...
How can you examine what's in the ViewState for a control/page? When I try to look at the object in the debugger, the keys, the values, the Non-public members are all "turtles all the way down". ...
When we disabled the viewstate in gridview its lose value but this case not true with Textbox control why? ...
I have a composite control that contains a different set of child controls based on the value of one of it's properties at runtime. Whenever there is a postback, I get the following error: Failed to load viewstate. The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during t...
Hello, I'm getting some strange behaviour with viewstate being lost on postback for a .net application using Sitecore. I'm assuming it might be some config variable somewhere but I'm new to Sitecore and don't really know where to start looking. UPDATE: Sitecore has now gotten back to us with an answer. We had recently added the dtSea...
I'd like to store a few variables which will be referenced throughout lifecycle, starting with a db access in PreInit event. ViewState isn't an option, since it won't persist if saved so early during the page lifecycle. Given that data should not be altered by a user, what would be the best alternative? ...
What ASP.NET page lifecycle event can I write code in to determine the size of the viewstate that being sent out? Also, is it possible to determine the size without parsing through the rendered HTML (like a property on the page object) or is parsing the only way? What I'd like to do is log the sizes, specifically if they cross a certai...
If I have a master 'composite custom server control', with several child custom controls, is it possible, for the master control to share its viewstate with the child controls, which are also custom composite server controls,(all of the controls are composite custom server controls)? To expand a little more, say I have a Person control...
I have a composite control that has a couple of private fields that reference values in the cache and these private fields are called during the constructor method. Since a string key is used to identify the value in the cache, I must have a way of storing that string key in such a way that it is available at the time the control is ins...
While debugging a postback problem with a DropDownList within a Repeater I discovered that even though everything looked like it was set up correctly the selections from the user on the DropDownList were not being restored from the view state. My DropDownList was defined as <asp:DropDownList ID="EmployeeColumnDropDownList" runat="serve...
