Adobe provides these html files that serve as templates in which you embed your shockwave (SWF) files. The html files will have javascript sections that do things like check for the correct version of the flash player.

In this html file, in both the html and javascript sections of it, you'll find constructions like the following:

<param name="movie" value="${swf}.swf" />

<title>${title}</title>

width="${width}" height="${height}"

The ${...} - what is that? I was thinking it was referencing query string parameters from the URL, but then I read that html can't access query string params, only javascript can. Is it just pseudocode, indicating you should specify a title at a given point (or width or whatever).

Is it true you can't access query string parameters with pure HTML? Is it reasonable to assume that javascript will be enabled on virtually any browser your app is running on.

(Couldn't get these questions answered in the flash forums and their culture is very different - very protective of any info they have.)

HTML is just a markup description language, it is not 'active' in anyway and it's not possible to manipulate query parameters (for this you would either need to use JavaScript, or some server-side processing)

Given that you are looking at displaying a SWF file it's reasonable to assume that JavaScript is enabled. In other contexts this may not be true.

I would imagine that the ${swf} elements are just placeholders for you to replace with a text editor.

Position Mode: Absolutely Position, is not working with other browsers

Hi Guys,

I have a problem dealing with my asp.net vb coding about the Position Mode.

All my fields Position mode is "Absolutely Position", and I developed my project with my monitor screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. And when I open it in other browsers in other computer the fields displayed outside the margin.

Im sure this is because some of the computers have different screen resolution. But is there a way to place an additional source code or something in my program in order to have the same output whatever the screen resolution is?

I hope there's a solution before I will change them all one by one

Thanks

gridview buttonfield click

Hi all,

I have a gridview in which i used button field to delete record from database on "onrowcommand" event of gridview. It works properly. But I want confirmation of delete before deleting record from database on client click. so i think for that i need to call javascript confirm box on click and if it returns true then only onrowcommand event of control to be executed. Is it possible that way.if yes then suggest the code otherwise suggest another way.

<asp:gridview id="GridView1" runat="server" allowpaging="True" autogeneratecolumns="False">
DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" PageSize="15" AllowSorting="True" OnRowCommand = "GridView1_RowCommand" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333" GridLines="None" style="width: 100%">
<columns> <asp:buttonfield buttontype="Image" commandname="delete_property_details" headertext="DeleteDetails">
Text="Delete" ImageUrl="~/images/deleteicon.jpg">
<controlstyle font-names="Verdana" font-size="10pt">

protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{

if (e.CommandName == "delete_property_details")
{
int index = Convert.ToInt16(e.CommandArgument);

other code placed here

}

}

In the ItemDataBound event you can add a confirm dialog to a button like so:

deleteButton.Attributes.Add("onClick", "return confirm('Confirm that you want to delete this record!');");

You can do the same in VS 2005. Actually, there are two options for creating webproject in VS 2005. One is "File System based" and other is "Localhost". If you choose "localhost", it will create the directory in IIS and can be called from other machine.. If you choose "File System", the port of your website will be(might be) changed each time the website is run . If you want the port not to change, set "False" to "Use dynamic ports" of the property of your webproject.

Hope it helps.

Problem with PayPal buy now button and a file extension

Rich Leyshon2-Jan-08 14:22

2-Jan-08 14:22

I have set up a PayPal button so that on successful payment, the return address is a clickonce setup.exe file to install an application. I have done this previously without any problem.

However, this time (and I have created several test buttons) instead of the usual dialog box, I get one that gives me the option of either saving the file or searching online for an application that will run it. It looks like the .exe extension is being ignored and, if I select save, it gets saved as Setup and not Setup.exe.

However,if I navigate directly to the setup.exe file, without using the PayPal button, it works perfectly.

The only difference with the PayPal button (encrypted) to the ones I have used before is that it uses a custom image. Tried removing that but no change.

I am using IE7 and the application is .net 2.

Does anyone have any ideas why the .exe extension seems to be getting ignored?

Cheers,

Rich

Actually, if you are using ClickOnce, you should call "***.application" (e.g. http://yourdomain.com/installers/myapplication.application ) instead of setup.exe.
