Hi,
I have this application that logs call durations and allows user to enter details about the call.
I am having a problem with the functionality in a peculiar case.

The application validates...

In that case Can you mark this thread as solved ?

Creating a new post again and again is not going to take you anywhere.

Wait for someone to read your post and send you a solution if he knows.

Well I don't naturally.

Well this doesn't tell anything.
In case if you didn't understand, it told you to check the error in the eventlog of the server.

So you have to do that to find the real error.

Well I haven't seen anybody doing this and for good reason, trust me.
This is in no way going to be better in performance and you will also face plenty of problems while updating.


Oh..ya if its...

Well from what you have pasted it seems that instead of textboxes that will make the column editable, you have put label controls in the <EditItemTemplate></EditItemTemplate>
tags.

So replace the...

I think you are binding the gridview inside a IF not ISPOSTBACK ----END IF code in Page Load.

Paste it outside this on Page Load.

This should do the trick.

Well you don't need that line at all.
The ExecuteScalar method returns a single value eg the number of records affected in an update query.
In your case it holds the id of the user which is an...

Well the second url I sent is in vb and its quite easy to understand as well.

Try that one.

Try this article.
It will clarify your doubts about form authentication.

If you think that's difficult to digest, go through this one..

Do fill in the rest of the details

Dim li As ListItem

If rd.HasRows Then
Do While rd.Read

li = New ListItem
li.Text= rd.Item("fname")
li.Value = rd.Item("srid")

Well one way is to loop through the datareader and get the values in each row and add it to dropdownlist.
This involves the following steps.

Well glad to help.
Do remember to set this thread as Solved so that others could benefit from this solution.

Call Executescalar with your command object. It returns a single value like id in your case if the query is successful.

If it is nothing then the login fails, otherwise, allow the user.

It depends on what kind of a functionality you require in the second aspx (the one you are calling).

If you are just trying to create a dynamic header, you can try looking at user controls.

If...

Well, your sql query is fetching all columns from the table and your dropdownlist cannot be bound to such a recordset.
What you need to do is modify your sql query to fetch only fname as in
...

Yes you can. Follow these steps.

1).Create a query which fetches the fname from details table.
2).Call cmd.ExecuteReader with this query.
3).Now bind the dropdownlist from the datareade.

For...

Well I understood your problem buddy.

OK. One more try.
Try this.
In your code that you posted, your variable ramram has been declared as integer and you are using the statement.



Try...

This is one way of doing it.

Yes ..I got it that far..



So is it giving you any error while updating?
If yes, can you post that as well.

If no, well we 'll think of that part later.

Can you tell me how you are doing this?

Sorry didn't get you.
But let me clarify myself.

When you use a command object to update or insert in a database, you need to use an Executenonquery.

Maybe this is giving the problem.

So try

The statement

has to come before


This got to make it work.

Just curious..

Why are you calling an ExecuteReader with an update query?
Shouldn't you be using an ExecuteNonQuery instead?

Yep, you can try calling a specific function every one minute or so that checks if an entry is made and gives an alert if true.

Hope this is what is required.

Can you tell me how you are trying to approach this in the first place before I suggest anything ?

Hey, I haven't Done this ever but found something that might help you.

Try this link. Its got a pretty neat solution....

Well I don't think so.

A session variable works on the session level and is independent of any other session.

So it will not be able to increment the counter with each session start.
...

Thats a common problem.

Add a javascript to the update botton that gets fired after a defined interval say 5 secs and disables the control.

The control will automatically get enabled once the...

Sorry buddy.
Can't help you in this.

Well not sure about this but I think you can try this out.

I am assuming that you are using Nested Grids i.e a parent gridview with each row being a gridview in itself.

1). Add an HTML image...

Hey, How about using AJAX for updating the database?
That way, the page won't get refreshed both times.

How are you displaying the search results on the page ?

I assume since you posted this in an ASP.Net forum you are atleast referring to an ASP.Net/ASP application having few HTML pages.
If so then it surely will work cause the code is supposed to be...

Could you be more detailed about your question ?
It helps you know !!

Just curious, If we have the index, can't we use seek to get to that line.

Well I did mention this previously.

Application_Start : Retrieve the last written value from database and update application variable.

Session_Start: Increment the variable.

Session_End:...

Well That's no difference then what you did with the webpage with grids.

You just need to write the code to connect and retrieve/insert record from db in the particular event.

Well thats up to you to decide.
Usually db table can be used in cases if you require to check later on as to how many people are hitting your application on a per week or any other duration to keep...
