First off, that was totally out of order to post my private email to you in a public forum, here. Yes, I did consider sending it to CP admin, but on reflection decided that rather than run crying to mummy about it I would, as someone so eloquently put it, “grow a pair” and try and deal with it between just the two of us. But I never dreamt to carry on in public about it – believe it or not, I didn’t want to do anything that might cause you embarrassment; that was actually my primary reason for not evens ending it to CP admin, let alone making a public fuss about it. Taking a bit of stick from others on a forum is indeed part and parcel of participating in them, but the reason I felt differently about this issue was because of your high status/ranking (call it what you will) on CP, which gives your posts an air of authority. And like anyone in an exalted position, you have a responsibility to conduct your affairs with a certain amount of care for the consequences. You jumped in on a conversation between others (myself and the OP) and set yourself up, unasked, as a moderator. Yet your comments were of no better a nature than either of ours, and in fact only served to pour fuel on the situation. If peacemakers are blessed, then I’m afraid you are going straight to Hell. If you are unable to do better than that, then my suggestion to you is that in future you stay out of other peoples’ arguments. Your earlier post on this (even the title of which was rude – precisely what you accused me of in my post and for which you suggested I “take a break” from the forums...) seems to indicate that most people here seem to think that you are beyond reproach in this matter, so fine. But having balls or not isn’t the issue – if this whole sorry affair is indicative of the sort of community here, then I guess it just isn’t for me. Go to Hell, Mark.

Fine. I won't darken your day again. Goodbye.

What insult? What slap-down? What sarcasm? I just pointed out a fwe home truths.

Well, if you can repeat your post, I can repeat my answer: What insult? What slap-down? What sarcasm? I just pointed out a fwe home truths.

I disagree. I think it was quite called for.

Actually I do know, I could design and build such a control in my sleep - but don't expect any help from me. Read the forum guidelines.

What makes you think you're going to get any better repsonse this time from when you posted this same question 24 hours ago? No one gives a damn how urgent your requirement is, and no-one is going to do your work for you. Make an effort to do it yourself, and then if you have a specific problem come back and ask about that.

You should listen to your friends, and learn JavaScript. You cannot hope to be a serious web-developer if you don't. Posting back to the server in this scenario is the wrong approach.

um... you might want to read this rant[^]... [edit] This[^] exposition of it is also interesting

OK - you don't really need the "javascript:" bit, but apart from that, and the fact that you have missed out ther opening ' at the start of your message (before the word "Are"), it should work:

btnImport.Attributes.Add("onclick", "return confirm('Are you sure you want to create?')");

So why have yuou posted this here instead of the Javascript forum? This is pretty basic Javascript which you cuold solve yourself with a little Googling. But anyway, try here[^] for starters

Now you're just cross-posting, which is a no-no here! I meant that your original post should have been made here, not to repeat it here. And I've already told you how to fix it. Oh well, never mind - here, this works (in IE):

function DateInputUpdate(input) {
if (event.keyCode == 8) {
if (input.value.length == 3 || input.value.length == 6) {
input.value = input.value.substring(0,input.value.length-1);
}
} else {
if ( input.value.length == 2 || input.value.length == 5 )
input.value = input.value + '/';
if (input.value.length > 10) {
input.value = input.value.substring(0, 10);
}
}
}

Well OK, but you still need to write it along the lines I suggested. Of course, you need also to check for valid input at some stage - eg as is a user could enter 99/99/9999.

Compile the images within the project as an embedded resource.

First off - this is the wrong forum for this question - you should have posted it in "JavaScript". Secondly, code blocks should be wrapped using the "code block" button above the editor when posting. Having said all that, you code behaves as it does because you are catching the keyup event on the backspace key just like any other. You need your code to be of the form:

if (event.keyCode == 8) {
// that block
} else {
// the rest
}

Also, I suspect you have only been testing/using this in IE - you may need to look at how Firefox sees it...

Better to use POST in the form's ACTION property to just pass values from one page to another.

You are asking an awful lot of questions (here and in Database) which with a little bit of research you could answer yourself. The quesiton above is basic HTML stuff. Enough now. Do some work yourself.

You need to query the information_schema database, for this and your other posts. Can I suggest you install a graphical front end for MySQL (I'd recommend HeidiSQL[^]) - apart form showing you all you need to know about this, you can view the SQL it uses to query the database in it's output window.

Has anyone heard of anything like this before

Sort of, yes - along these lines[^] - but I assume you've looked into that....?

By definition, a client side file (which your ajxx/javascript files are) are sent to the client. In plain text. So no matter what you do, you cannot stop a determined user from viewing them. You can minify and obfuscate them, but while that may deter an inexperienced user, it won't stop anyone that knows what they are doing. But the question is: why do you want to? Never, ever, put sensitive data in a javascript file.
