I don't know how to alert the user that he has reached the limited characters count of the TextBox, using the Validation Controls!
I used the RangeValidator and set the Type to string, set the MinimumValue to 1 and the MaximumValue to 255, but it works incorrect, I also used the RegularExpression using the [\ws]{1,255} string, but doesn't work! I'm not good at RegularExpression can anyone help please?

I have used the MaxLength but it doesn't have any effect! I still can write more that the MaxLenght! Frown | :(

In the Solution Explorer right-click the second nude from the top and add a folder, then simply drag and drop your pages to it in the solution explorer and the visual studio will change all the links you have mad to these pages!

u can set maxlength proerty as u want
or for alert message u can use javascript function
like
TextBox1.Attributes.Add("onkeypress", "Function();");(write this line in page load and the function in designerhtml view)
in that function u write the code to count characters...

(this fn. can be called for each and every key entry from keyboard )
nZoy..! Smile | :)

Hello guys

im building a web application, and i have a problem which is in the home page i have a login page, and other information.. i wanna to give access to all users to the information in the homepage, but not to the pages inside my application.. and how can i make the authenticated user to log out!
'i want to give access to all users to some pages not all pages'
and the authenticated users can access them all.

thanks in advance

Regards

Estarta

Re: Authentication

Rojan Gh.29-Dec-06 12:31

How can I do this more cleanly...

29-Dec-06 12:31

As much as I know, you should put the pages that you don't want to get access to in a folder and put a Web.Config file in that folder and set this tag:

<system.web><br />
  <authentication mode="Forms"><br />
    <forms loginUrl="login.aspx"/><br />
  </authentication><br />
</system.web>

this way you will make users to login before they can see the content of this folder(they will be redirected to login.aspx automatically)!

And when you can Log some user in using:

System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage();

you can log him out using:

System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.SignOut(); Wink | ;)

A web designer that *sucks* gave me this HTML to build a dynamic news/event section with. The trouble is that the HTML isn't clean and something about it causes it to not look right. Is there a simpler way to do this maybe without divs. I've wasted 60 hours trying to make this crap work and I just don't know HTML well enough at all to make it look better.

Here's a link to how it looks and you can see the problem in the bottom of the events table.

Here's the code:

good GOD!!! This dude/chick makes my head spin with all those nested tables and divs. Uhh... maybe a CSS?!?! WTF | :WTF:

Why don't you build your own structure, and place the *meat* where you want it to appear? Run them at server so you can manipulate the html elements for dynamic data insertion.

p.s.

I'm attempting this but lack the experience to know how to produce the outlines that around each row and the subsequent tables. I *HATE* html. Sigh | :sigh:

Let me put something together for you then. In the meantime, are you using C# or VB.Net as your code behind?
