Megan,
Not sure if you have read this article: Customising your website's Icon in IE5 [^], it should do the trick. Smile | :)

Try it in Mozilla. If it works then, don't worry about it.

For some odd reason, IE shows favicons for me upon initial installation, and then loses them several weeks later, never to show them again. This has happened on 4 machines and 3 versions of IE so far... For a feature MS originated, you'd think they could make it work a bit better...

I installed Mozilla the other day. Had to reinstall XP to fix all the problems it created. I gathered 4 hours of reinstalling would be the quicker fix!

Oh well, as it seems that independant financial advisors (the only subscribers to our site) may be colour blind, and certainly bored by tech, I guess there's no pointing trying to fart against IE thunder... Poke tongue | ;-P

Would be cool if it worked though.

Thanks anyway, hopefully one day I'll see it show up in someone's browser (any news on IE 7's release date? Eek! | :eek:

)

UserControl problems, take two

I have a user control in which I need to bind a list of State abbreviations to a dropdown list. I have an array as follows:

<br />
string[] foo = {"CA","MA","HA","WA"};<br />

I tried to use the Page Load event to initialize the dropdown with the values as follows:

<br />
ddlData.DataSource = foo;<br />
ddlData.DataBind();<br />

I know the code is pristine but for some reason the Page Load isn't getting fired off in the control.

Preserving a variable accross frames

I have a web page set up with several different frames. I am using some
JavaScript in an .aspx page to populate a "Tree View" type of appearance. I
have 3 seperate databases with 4 tables in each that I want to display in
the "main" frame (via command buttons in a "bottom" frame). I would like to
be able to select a database in the "Tree View" and then be able to select
one of the 4 tables in a "bottom" frame to populate the main frame. I have
been able to pupulate the main frame with one table, but I do not know how
to let the "bottom" frame know what database to choose from to display one
of the four tables. Any help would be appreciated.

to refer to a variable in a different frame you just have to use the:
parent.frames collection.
Each of your frames should have a name that you use to refer to it, eg:

parent.frames["myframe"].myvar

This isn't the exact same thing but it should give you a good idea-

Web User Control Issues

afronaut3-Oct-02 5:57

3-Oct-02 5:57

Hey all. I have a very simple user control for a phone number. It consists of three textboxes (area code, prefix and number). I want to define a readonly property that returns a string with all three values concatenated. I define the control, I add the following for the property:

<br />
public string PhoneNumber{<br />
get{<br />
return AreaCode.Text + Prefix.Text + Extension.Text;<br />
}<br />
}<br />

But when I tried to refer to it from the CodeBehind page on the ASPX file that I've got it hosted on it doesn't have a reference to the control.

So I just manually declared it in the ASPX file and everything worked fine.

Is there a way to force VS.NET to declare UserControls on the codebehind page when you drag them into the page?

Can ASP pages run on Redhat Linux 7.1? I don't want to spent money on this. I have a small web page built in ASP. And I'd like to have it run on my linux 7.1 (Redhat) box. Is this possible for 1. And twp can it be down for free with some rpm installation or other package available for linux?

Thanks,
Derek

There's a couple of options I know of. Unfortunately I think they're all commercial, anyway, first option is ChiliSoft's ChiliAsp. The other is Halcyon Software's iASP (Instant ASP). Both are pretty easy to install (I've used ChiliAsp).

If you are using Linux, just use PHP. If you are serious about doing ASP/ASP.NET development, then use Windows.

Ad rotator

Hi,

Do any of you know of an ad-rotator, that uses a timer? We would like to display banners, that "auto-rotate" as it were, every 20 secs or so, without the page being refreshed. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take too long to write in Javascript, but was just wondering if one existed already.

Thanks Smile | :)

Helo
Im trying to add the SelectSingleNode funktion supported i MSXML
to Netscape/Mozilla. By implementing a prototyp-funktion that
wraps the Moz corresponding native-implementation.

Has any one done this ore a suggestion on artikels.

The idea is not to loop the XMLdocument finding the corresponding
node to the xpath, but to use the Mozilla xpath funktionality.

Removing Header & Footer from Print Preview page

Hello,

I have one page on the site which the user can print. Now when the user prints the page, the header and footer of the browser is also displayed. How can I remove this header and footer using the ASP or Javascript code?

Thanks in advance

In Internet Explorer you cannot remove the header and footer using JavaScript or ASP. IE intentionally seperates the browser UI from the HTML document and only selected methods and properties are modifiable, header and footer not being one of them.

I think there is a way to do it via a JavaApplet, but I do not actually know how or where I heard that (and not that I would actually want to use a JavaApplet.) Smile | :)

Sure, that should work, but in the same way as "Request" is a predefined HttpWebRequest, "Server" is a predefined HttpServerUtility. There should never be a reason to define a new one.
