Comply ... and then use Portable FireFox from your memory stick! It is not installed on you machine!

When I initially wrote my little Minesweeper JS game[^] I included a small recursive function to clear space on the game board and with IE it was slow enough to may the game unplayable to a good Minesweeper. When Firebird, the early name of FireFox, came out I noticed that the game play had no lagging at all ... like it thought it should ... because it is not a complex routine by any stretch. This was my immediate switch from ever using IE again. You are right though, this fact about IE is not raised enough. There are plenty of other things to harp on IE about though ... You guys are familiar with /IE7/[^], right?

One good thing about watching survivor this season has been seeing Richard Hatch bit on the arm by a shark (dog fish?). I was LMAO at that.

Like Mazdak said, you can change the display of the DateTime object when it is databound to the DataGrid. Example ASPX:

<asp:DataGrid runat="server" id="MyDataGrid" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<columns>
<asp:TemplateColumn HeaderText="Date/Time">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblDate" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "MyDate") %>' runat="server" OnDataBinding="lblDate_DataBinding" />
<ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
</columns>
</asp:DataGrid>

In the code behind:

private void lblDate_DataBinding(object sender, System.EventArgs e) {
Label lblDateTime = (Label)sender;
DateTime dteDateTime = System.Convert.ToDateTime(lblDateTime.Text);
lblDateTime.Text = dteDateTime.ToString("MMM dd YYYY");
}

If you want to let the user choose the format I guess you could put DropDownList on the page with available formats and whenever that changes grab the format string to use it in the ToString method of the DateTime object. Should work. (?) Let me know.

Most likely ... When doing the Server.Transfer it becomes the first request for the page (URL is different) and loses the ViewState because it is not a PostBack. Just my stab in the dark.

Only works in Internet Explorer: Here's a link to some examples.

This assumes that your images are in a folder named "images" which is in the root of the web site and that the field "Image1" in the database contains only the image file name. If this is the case you just need to concatonate the path to the images to the filename, as is done above. The third parameter of the DataBinder.Eval function is for formatting the data (i.e. "{0:c}" is used to format a number to currency). There might be a way to do what you want through this parameter but contatonating the path will get the job done.

You could use an anchor tag to go to a certain spot on the page ... <a name="GoHere">Go Here</a> The trick would be getting that into the form action ... MyForm.aspx#GoHere

Right ... it's an IE "feature" where you can open a new window (or windows) in fullscreen mode which removes all of the "chrome" (toolbars, menubars, statusbar, titlebar ... everything) of a normal browser window. This can then be resized so it no longer takes up the full screen and you can do anything with it you like ... malicious if you so choose. Definitely a potential security hazard ... if a person with little computer knowledge came to a site that opens itself into full screen mode they may not even know how to close the window (with Alt+F4) or get even back to their desktop.

Last night I dreamed that I had to get up about four times throughout the night to bring one of my 5 month old twin boys to our bed so momma could passify them back to sleep ... Oh, nevermind ... it wasn't a dream ... am I awake yet?

try something like this on a containing DIV (or whatever elements suits the need):

#container {
position: relative;
width: 800px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
text-align: left;
border: 0px;
}

I think that this is a system setting (info box) that could possibly be tweaked through the registry or something like that ... otherwise you could use something like this: http://webfx.eae.net/dhtml/tooltip/tooltip.html or this http://webfx.eae.net/dhtml/helptip/helptip.html to control the delay time ...

IE will treat the "Enter" button as submitting the form ... that is its nature. What I have found is that if there is even one button (that is an INPUT of type SUBMIT) the "Enter" button can be an annoying feature to handle because of this nature. You can avoid this by making the buttons of type BUTTON but this is probably not a good viable option because I would assume that you are using the Web Control asp:Button which is of type SUBMIT. So, using javascript to capture the keydown, or keyup, or keypress event(s) is probably going to be your best method of blocking this "feature".

not without some sort of active-x control or plug-in ...

That's what my code example attempts to do ... but my question is how will the user then save the changes? Are the buttons still there for functionality or are you trying to get around using the buttons completely?
