I have a master/details setup with a GridView and DetailsView both in UpdatePanels. When the DetailsView is edited and updated, I want these changes to be reflected in the GridView, but without rebinding that data (which could change the selectedItem's sort order among other problems it causes) On DetailsView ItemUpdated I have the fol...
The whole purpose of the ASP.NET FormView control is to display a single record at a time. So how do I bind it to a single record? It complains that Data source is an invalid type. It must be either an IListSource, IEnumerable, or IDataSource. I can wrap my object in a list if that's the only solution. In this application, the For...

I've seen several posts on StackOverflow and elsewhere discussing the various ways to bring together data from multiple entities into a strongly typed view, these being using the ViewData object or constructing a new custom class that utilizes both entities. To me it seems that if you are representing some sort of new hybrid entity you ...

I want to maintain the state that the page was in should the user come back to it using the browser's back button. How I've gone about this is to store the page's state in session each time the use...

I'm building some simple web apps and using jQuery to call .net webmethods. The more I put together, the more I wonder where I draw the line between the aspx page and what I can produce with jQuery/jTemplate and a few ajax calls. It seems I can do everything on the client now, and easily too. At the moment I've just got one default.htm...
I know we've done this before in another .aspx page that's using this master page. So I tried this in a new .aspx but for some reason, it is not recognizing the Master object. And the .aspx definitely is set to the master page in the page directive correctly and there's no errors to that effect: using System; using System.Collections.G...
