I set mine up by either placing them inside a HTML table or by using the style tag. HTH

Perfect, now I can redesign my entire site.... hmm maybe not the best idea.. :) Good to know for the future though Thanks, Gavin ;)

How would Session Variables work? Example: I have a .aspx page with 1 text box on it called textbox1 After this control I have a control called button.ascx When I load this page I click on the button which is in the control and I want it to redirect me to the URL that I have typed in textbox1 but I can't seem to access textbox1 from button.ascx How would I do this? Thanks, Gavin

Hi All, Does ASP.NET still support SSI's? If so how do I do it? My other question is in regard to Controls. I have a control called 'navigation.ascx' which holds all my navigation buttons for my application. I place this control below every page. What I am trying to do is when the client clicks on Button1 I populate the database with all the data from Page1. But I can't seem to figure out how to pass data to a control dynamically. Is this possible? Thanks, Gavin

Thanks a million, Works like a treat

Hi All, I am using ASP.NET and C# I would presume this is an easy question but I can't seem to find any information about it. I would like to add a button to my webpage that when clicked acts just like the print option of Internet Explorer. ie. Brings up a box to ask you what printer you want to print. I'm sure there must be a straight function that I can call, something like Document.Print? Thanks, Gavin

Hi All, I am still stuck trying to get some Crystal Reports working. From what I have found out all my code is correct and I must just be missing something else. Now the thing is I have no idea what that something else is. I have downloaded the samples from Crystal Decisions and used them and I get the same error message.

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong here? Thanks, Gavin

That solves it.. Thanks, Is there a decent reason on why it is running the Load_Page after I push submit and before the actual submit?

Hi All, I am having an annoying problem that hopefully you can explain to me. I have some code in my Page_Load event that load previous data into all the textboxes on a form. I then enter my new data and submit, but for some reason it is clearing all the data in my form before submitting, the only reason that I can come up with is that it is loading the Page_Load event which is populating the form with blanks from my database? Does this make any sense and can I fix this? Thanks, Gavin

Hi All, I am using a datagrid on a page to show some data from my sql database. I just need to know if you can use a regular expression to change a 1 into 'Male'? If not how would I change something like that. My SQL database is returning integers and I want to display them nicely. Thanks, Gavin

Hi All, I have a simple ASP page that connects to a COM Component to add some data to my Database, it works 100% apart from the fact that it runs it twice? Is this a known problem or could someone explain how I can stop this. Here is the code from my ASP Page

AppMonitor = Server.CreateObject("AppMonitor.LoginDetails").InitialLogin
(Application("cdscConnection"), gstrAccountName, Session.SessionID, stest)

and the actual component

Public Function InitialLogin( _
ByVal ConnectionString As String, _
ByVal AccountName As String, _
ByVal SessionID As String, _
ByRef stest As Variant _
) As Long
Dim UserID As String
UserID = "sa"
Dim Password As String
Password = ""
Dim sql As String
sql = "EXEC cdsc_TBTrace 0, '" & Replace(AccountName, "'", "''") & "', " & SessionID
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
cn.Open (ConnectionString)
cn.Execute (sql)
stest = "Success"
cn.Close
ErrorHandler:
With Err
stest = Err.Description & "
" & Err.Number
End With
End Function

Thanks, Gavin

Okay well that has solved the invalid escape sequence thingie, BUT :) now I am getting the following error

Would this be a problem with the actual report (which seems to work fine of opened in Crystal) or is it still a coding error? Thanks

It was set as a server side string because that is how the Crystal Report Viewer set it itself. What I did was I dragged the CrystalReportViewer off the toolbox and dropped it onto my form. I then selected it and in the properties window click on the ... next to databindings. I then went into the ReportSource and put in the exact Source and clicked ok and it did the rest :)... I changed it as you suggested and am now getting the following error.

Cannot create an object of type 'System.Object' from its string representation 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Outbreak\Reports\test.rpt' for the 'ReportSource' property

I'm sure this is meant to be a lot simpler than it has turned out to be? Thanks for the help

Hi All, I am trying to view some Reports online through my Internet site. I am using C# on a Windows 2000 server running IIS5. I have looked around the internet and found some examples but they are not working. I have the following at the moment.

In design view I cn now see my report, but when I compile and view my page I get

CS1009: Unrecognized escape sequence

???? Can someone let me know where I am going wrong and how to sort this out. Thanks, Gavin

Okay in original ASp I was told to never store so much data in a Session Object and to either use Cookies or a Database. Now I'm being told not to use Cookies for this much data? You just can't win, at least it makes sense now though, I will use my SQL database instead. Cheers, Gavin PS: Thanks for the help :-D :-D :-D

Have you made sure you installed the .NET framework. I had this problem once and I had to uninstall the Framework and reinstall and everything worked fine.

:cool: werkin :cool: I see the logic, you have to check to see if the Cookie exists before checking to see if the cookies key exists or has any data... Seems to be 100% Thanks :)

Tried that, for some reason the page falls over if I try the following if (HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies["NewOutbreak"]["Test"] == "") { //Do Something amazing } else { Go home } I get an error saying something like cannot check for null as it doesn't exist.??

Hi All, I thought I had finally figured out cookies and have now run into another problem. I have 2 pages which both add data to a cookie as follows **********Page 1********** HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies["MyCookie"]["Session"]= Session.SessionID; HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies["MyCookie"]["MyName"] = "Gavin"; HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies["MyCookie"]["MyDrink"] = "Beer"; **********Page 2********** HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies["MyCookie"]["MyFood"]= "Pizza"; HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies["MyCookie"]["MyTeam"] = "Liverpool"; ************************** After Page 1 as I enter Page 2 my 3 Cookie Keys (Session, MyName & MyDrink) are all fine, but as I try and add the 2 new Keys my cookie loses the first 3? I hope everyone understood that one :) Can someone explain why this is and how do I stop it. I am looking at saving about 100 different things in this cookie so I don't really want to rewrite all the keys on every page. Thanks, Gavin

Hi All, Quick question here, I need to check to see if a cookie exists when someone enters 1 of my pages. This is an intranet so I know that everyone accepts cookies but is there way to see if a certain cookie exists? :~ :~ :~ Thanks, Gavin
