Well, I haven't been here long so I wasn't sure what had changed one day when I logged on, but I was freaking out because I knew where somethings previously were and now they weren't... But I've grown used to this and although I can't really remember the old style all that well, I prefer this :cheesy:.
Ok, I have been trying to find where I can make a vb.net perminant hit counter, most are by using text files (and I would definitely prefer them over a database). My problem now is, I can't find any code to make one! The little code I can find is poorly explained and I was wondering if one of you guys could maybe help me out here. God Bless!:cry:
I'm not exactly 100% sure whether or not this will work but any help is appreciated right?
Two possible factors you may consider: 1. harddisk and its controller. i would suggest you have a complete surface scan on the HDD, under dos or windows real mode. 2. Network adapter, Can you try replace one to move it to another similar computer for test?
It could also be a hardware problem, I have known people who's computers have crashed upon connection to the internet just because their RAM stick was loose. Have you had any problems with hardware drivers in the past? Could you please specify the details of the crash? Does it freeze, does it give you a blue screen?
Hehe Done :cheesy:. It's So satisfying to actually figure something out by yourself. Here is the Code.
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim CurrentPage As String
CurrentPage = Request.RawUrl
Select Case CurrentPage
Case "/gwt/Index.aspx"
lnkHome.ForeColor = Color.Red
lnkVac.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkIntrnl.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkReg.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkEmp.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkLnks.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkCntct.ForeColor = Color.Empty
End Select
and I just proceeded to put all of the pages in there, works like a charm. However, even though I have been struggling to figure that out, my boss thinks the links are dull and now I have to create some wacky tabacky rollover in photoshop for him. However, my efforts were not a waste as I have learned much along the way to solving that problem. Happy coding all, hope you guys are as successful as I have been... so far ;).
I got it to work!!! The way I intended it to work.
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If Request.RawUrl = "/gwt/Index.aspx" Then
lnkHome.ForeColor = Color.Red
lnkVac.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkIntrnl.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkReg.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkEmp.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkLnks.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkCntct.ForeColor = Color.Empty
End If
That is under my header control, it works WOOOOHOOO!
...Now I have to minimise coding by using the case system... hmmm.:)
ok I used the global.asax page for this one, got this information off www.4guysfromrolla.com, good site.
Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
'This variable Hits will store the # of visitors
Application("Hits") = 0
End Sub
Sub Session_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
'Lock the Application for concurrency issues
Application.Lock()
'Increment the counter
Application("Hits") = Application("Hits") + 1
'Unlock the Application
Application.UnLock()
End Sub
Now to declare it in my webform...
This page has been viewed <%=application("Hits")%> times.
Ok guys, this works but I would not by any means recommend it because it resests itself every time you rebuild the project, plus it resets whenever the server your site is on reboots or restarts, if anyone has a better alternative to this, please let me know. The next question I have is how do I replace the number on the hit counter, with a graphic, say it said 2 people have visited the page in plain text, I want that "2" to be an image of a 2, I've found a little on this but it's not working. Will post back if I find anything out.
Sorry, I did not really explain the site properly. Each link is a new webform, I have used zero query strings. Home page is index.aspx, register page is register.aspx, Contact page is contact.aspx and so on.
Hi, I am currently creating a website for my company and I am new to VS .NET programming. I have been using it for about two or three months as a trainee but my supervisor has currently gone away for a project she must complete up there. Anyway, my problem is, I am trying to make the header display different colored links for the page in question, no it's not as simple as using the average html alink as it is SPECIFICALLY for the header only and must only change for the page in question. E.g. I am currently on the "Index.aspx" page, I would like for the "Home" link in the header to change from navy blue to dark orange or red, whatever. When I change the page I wish for the "Home" Link to return to navy blue and the page in question's link to be dark orange or red. This is the code I have so far:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If (what goes here?) Is ("Index.aspx") Then
lnkHome.ForeColor = Color.DarkOrange
lnkEmp.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkVac.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkIntrnl.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkReg.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkLnks.ForeColor = Color.Empty
lnkCntct.ForeColor = Color.Empty
End If
End Sub
Oh, by the way, the header is a control, and the code snippet above was extracted from it. If you could help out here I would be so thankful to you as …
