There is no such thing as a combobox in HTML. Are you posting in the correct forum?

I wrote this article to answer issues with dynamic server controls: [URL="http://www.tgreer.com/aspnet_html_04.html"]ASP.NET Conditional Dynamic Controls[/URL]. It should answer your questions.

So... where are these textboxes actually created? Are they WebServer controls, or just HTML "input" fields? If they are Webserver controls, ask yourself why? If they aren't, then get the values out of the Response object. When is "filldata" executed?

Hi. I'm having some difficulty with a project that involves working with very large binary files. These are PCL files, where the decimal character "12" represents a Form Feed, but only if it's not embedded within a string of binary data. In other words, I'm looking for decimal "12", then …

I use: [url]http://www.onestat.com/html/aboutus_pressbox31.html[/url] to tell me what the most common browser/screen configurations are. Then I decide, based upon the site, what to do. If I'm working on a company's intranet, then I am much less conservative. If the page/site has user interface features that benefit from a maximized browser on …

You don't need the "javascript:" in the onclick attribute. Other than that, I'd need to know more about the specific problem. You might need full URLs rather than just filenames for "success.html" and "failure.html". What error are you getting?

Try [INLINECODE]String.Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br>")[/INLINECODE]

I can see you put work into your visual examples, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what they mean. However, stymiee has given you the proper starting point. First, place each of your form "blocks" into a "div" element, so that the page is organized well structurally. Then, …

I believe there are classes built into the .NET Compact Framework for Short Message Service.

The main difference is the "footprint" of the return value. [B]ExecuteReader[/B] always returns an object, for example, a SqlDataReader. Then, to get the actual results, you have to do a Read(), then get the value. [B]ExecuteScalar[/B] immediately returns the actual value. So, in terms of retrieving Scalar data from a …

After a certain period of time, you cannot edit your post. Your page is missing a doctype, so I'm not sure which version of HTML you're writing. However, since all the tags are lowercase, I can assume it's XHTML. If that's the case, then centering is done with CSS, by …

User "YouCan" is spamming via PMs: Hello "tgreer" Have you worked with Winforms? Do you understand how to use it with C# pretty well? Would you be interested in a position using UI, C# and Winforms development? I am not sure where you are located? This position would not be …

The arguments to the [b]window.open()[/b] function are: [b]URL[/b], [b]Name[/b], and [b]Features[/b]. [b]URL [/b]is self-evident. [b]Name [/b]is the name of the opened window, which can be used as an argument for the [b]target [/b]attribute of hyperlinks. [b]Features [/b]is an optional list of characteristics of the new window: For example: [code] [color=Black]<a …

I too am a bit confused by the question. If you want your page to be DYNAMIC, you can add WebServer controls, and set their properties, at runtime. Doing so can be very problematic. This article details some of the issues and workarounds: [URL=http://www.tgreer.com/aspnet_html_04.html]ASP.NET Page Life Cycle and Dynamic Controls[/URL] …

Dani - that's what pisses me off about Daniweb. Herself, herself. How dare someone be so successful by being so wrong about so many things? How can you successfully argue with anyone who can make you forget everything you were about to say just by smiling at you? Plus she …

cosmic rays celestial dice rolls through my system So, you're all heading over to [url]http://www.tgreer.com/forum[/url], right? :?:

If you want an animated STATUS BAR, or PROGRESS BAR, something that dynamically informs the user that the database query or update is 50% done, you simply cannot. The web, even ASP.NET, is challenge-response. The user only sees something new when the server-side code is complete. One workaround is to …

Use a Placeholder. You can insert as many elements as you like into a Placeholder, including divs and images. Please let me know if I haven't understood the question properly.

You don't want to do this. The "enter" key is universally used to submit a form, or perform a default action. Altering it is a major violation of the User Model.

You're asking for a lot. You collect your form data from the properties of the various server controls. The syntax for SQL is the same regardless of the underlying database, more or less. MySQL is a good server-side database program. If you are completely new to data-drive web development, then …

Nope, not really. By design, a person's browser isn't allowed to snoop around the file system.

What programming language? What web server platform? What IDE? Please follow normal conventions, spelling, grammar and punctuation when posting. There is no reason for your entire post to be in bold, or not to have spaces between sentences.

Amazon publishes an API. For that example, I'd use the Amazon API in my project. "Getting information from a web site" is much too general of a question. Web sites are built to be accessed by human users, in most cases, not applications. There are exceptions, such as RSS feeds …

I'd use a SQL query. I'd also only use code tags when posting code, and I'd use question marks when asking questions.

What IDE are you using? If you're using Visual Studio, or one of the Visual Studio Express Web Developer editions, you publish the web service application to a Web Server just as you do a normal ASP.NET web application. Use the "Copy Web Site" wizard from the Website menu. If …

A Windows application using C# is not the same as an ASP.NET Web Service. I'd start by making sure I had the right development environment and understood the basic structure of a web service.

Use a SQL stored procedure for the data integrity part of your task. Use an OUT parameter to indicate a successful write, or duplicate. Base your program logic on the OUT parameter.

Your question doesn't make sense in the context of a coding question. What, exactly, do you mean by "bottom of the button"? Do you wish to start the timer in response to the "click" event of a particular button? Are you asking a question about the GUI layout of your …

I don't quite "get" that line either, taken out of context. But I can tell you that everything in C# is an object, it's the most fundamental "type". This is roughly equivalent to the "variant" type in other languages. "Boxing" is similar to casting. Specifically, though, it is a way …

Do your Insert Query, the do a SELECT @@IDENTITY Query immediately afterward. It's best to do both in a stored procedure with the Identity as an OUT parameter. Try this link: [url]http://www.netomatix.com/adonetauto.aspx[/url]

Please don't make your questions such a puzzle. You mention Regular Expressions in the subject, and "parsing HTML" in the post. You need to "get" certain tags. You need help. There is no question per se in your post. Instead of giving us clues pointing vaguely toward a possible question, …

Your question simply isn't specific enough. What are you printing? How? From what application? Visual Studio, I assume. Are you wanting, essentially, a screen shot of your IDE? Or are you coding a print function into your application? If you don't get an answer to your question, it's best to …

Visual Studio.NET for ASP.NET Web Service development auto-generates the WSDL. Can you be more specific?

Custom developed, so it's not one you can download. It's more than just a "skin" - the site has been dramatically customized as well.

Don't listen to tgreer. He doesn't post here anymore, anyway.

...and in fact, the FireFox implementation is much stricter about adhering to standards. So, if it isn't working in FireFox, but is in IE, you either have a custom unsupported IE CSS thing (like a filter, not part of the CSS standard), or in fact your CSS is broken and …

Hello, this is not a Web Development question, but this is the only XML forum on Daniweb. I need to copy a specific number of nodes in an XSLT transform. For example, I need to copy the first 5 <student> nodes, with all child nodes and attribute nodes, even though …

ASP.NET works with IIS. You access ASP.NET applications through a web browser. Whatever you've configured a particular IIS installation's server name to be, is how you access it, via WAN, LAN... whatever.

I've posted a new article on my site, dealing with how to integrate JavaScript and ASP.NET. It's a "beginner level" article. [url]http://www.tgreer.com/aspnet_html_03.html[/url]

HTML alone cannot connect to a database. What you need to do is research server-side web programming languages. There are both scripting and compiled languages. The most popular at the moment is PHP, and Daniweb has a nice PHP forum. The other current contender is ASP.NET from Microsoft, and we …

You've not supplied enough information. I'm not familiar with any octal-to-decimal operator, sorry. Perhaps you could post the relevant code?

It's one of the most short-sighted policies I can imagine. I'm amazed that no one apparently understands that the long-term effect of offshoring to a less-developed nation will be to equalize the relative economies.

Research the JavaScript "scrollTo" method, then post a follow-up if you have any specific questions about it.

This entire discussion is very amusing. In short, you have to use JavaScript for most of the questions in this thread. There is no reason not to do so, either. If you want a real-world solution, don't impose silly restrictions. This is like saying "I need directions from my business …

Martin, [quote]This area is for MV customers to use to enhance your web pages and take advantage of web-based tools that MV is providing. Note that some areas are off-limits to non-MV customers.[/quote] So you may or may not have permission to use that script, even though it's posted on …

There is an absolutely definitive answer: search engines see pages. Search engines do not see the code that produces pages. I remember the day when "web developers" first concerned themselves about oh, performance, database connectivity, effeciency, code reuse... now we worry about search engine "optimization" before even learning the most …

Please use the code tags when posting code. Thank you.

The various document.write methods are depcrecated, and will no longer work in the newer HTML doctypes. One thing that many forget to do when using document.write(), is to close the document! Be sure you use a document.close() statement at the appropriate spot.

I don't understand at all. The "select" is used to place one of the drop-down values into the "textbox" portion of the element. So, almost by definition, the box has to be large enough to contain all of its possible values. I think what you really what is an "unordered …

...but it did work for me, IE and FireFox.
