Hi,

You can use <asp:HyperLink> and set its Target property to "_blank" and its NavigateUrl property to the file url and done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I hope this will help you.

Add the target="_blank" attribute to the link.

Are you trying to do this after a postback or from a regular link?

Regular link:

<a href="http://www.codeproject.com" target="codeProjectWindow">The Code Project</a>

Code Behind:

You'll need to register a client startup script to open the new window once the page has loaded:

<code>
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType, "codeProjectRedirect", "window.open('http://www.codeproject.com')", True)

End Sub
<code>

Hope this helps

It depends on the MIME type man... Text files normally open directly into the IE.

how can i bind a datalist dynamically??

8-Jun-07 4:23

Yes but the problem is that the its a web application and client will not be able to open a file untill it is in Virtual directory or it is in current application folder ..........
Link having url of any file in server will not open in this way

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

Create an event handler for handling ItemCommand event of datalist as following.

protected void dlst_ItemCommand ( object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e )
{
//Find InnerDatalit.
DataList datalist1 = ( DataList )e.Item.FindControl( "DataList1" );
//Set its datasource
datalist1.DataSource = datasource.
//Bind it.
datalist1.DataBind();
}

This event will call when u click on button in the outer datalist and will find inner datalist and bind it to the data.

Thanks and Regards,
Chetan Ranpariya

I am creating a custom WebControl. I noticed that it wraps everything in a SPAN tag. How can I get rid of this tag? I don’t want it to appear!

Override the constructor of the web control and pass in a string representing the tag you want it to be rendered as:

<br />
<DefaultProperty("Text"), ToolboxData("<{0}:TestControl runat=server></{0}:TestControl>")> _<br />
<PartialCaching(10, Nothing, Nothing, "CustomTest")> _<br />
Public Class TestControl<br />
    Inherits WebControl<br />
<br />
    Public Sub New()<br />
        MyBase.New("div")<br />
<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
    Protected Overrides Sub RenderContents(ByVal writer As HtmlTextWriter)<br />
        writer.Write("Time Now: " & Date.Now)<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
End Class<br />

Hope this helps

Override the RenderBeginTag and RenderEndTag and just don't call the base method:

<br />
Public Class TestControl<br />
    Inherits WebControl<br />
<br />
    Protected Overrides Sub RenderContents(ByVal writer As HtmlTextWriter)<br />
        writer.Write("Time Now: " & Date.Now)<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
    Public Overrides Sub RenderBeginTag(ByVal writer As System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter)<br />
        'MyBase.RenderBeginTag(writer)<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
    Public Overrides Sub RenderEndTag(ByVal writer As System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter)<br />
        'MyBase.RenderEndTag(writer)<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
<br />
End Class<br />

Hope this helps

hi,
I'm trying to convert a VS2003 project to a VS2005.
I'm working under Vista, i'have IIS6 installed in local.
after excuting this line
aspnet_regiis -i -enable
I've try to open my project but I've got this error
Unable to open the Web 'http://localhost/MyProjectFO/Test.csproj'. To access local IIS Web sites, you must install all of the following Windows components: Internet Information Services IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration Compatibility ASP.NET In addition, you must run Visual Studio in the context of an administrator account. By default, Windows runs applications in a limited-privilege user account even when you are logged on to the computer as an administrator. To run Visual Studio with administrative privileges, right-click the Visual Studio icon and then click 'Run as administrator'. For more information, press F1.

thanks for Help!!

I would guess you are only adding the controls if Page.IsPostBack = false, you need to add the dynamic controls on every postback, try this:

<br />
Partial Public Class _Default<br />
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page<br />
<br />
    Protected Overrides Sub CreateChildControls()<br />
        MyBase.CreateChildControls()<br />
<br />
        Dim textBox As New TextBox<br />
        textBox.ID = "TextBox1"<br />
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(textBox)<br />
<br />
        Dim button As New Button<br />
        button.ID = "Button1"<br />
        button.Text = "Click Me"<br />
        AddHandler button.Click, AddressOf Button1_Click<br />
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(button)<br />
<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)<br />
<br />
        Dim label As New Label<br />
        label.ID = "Lable1"<br />
        label.Text = "I was just posted back"<br />
        PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(label)<br />
<br />
    End Sub<br />
<br />
End Class<br />

It helps me, but not in my current scenrio.
*I want to add controls to placeholder when IsPostBack==True
I have this scenrio: one course can have many dates, and i am inteneded to save course info & dates info on single click event of button.
For that i want to put a placeholder control in the ajax update pannel, and a button to add text box to enter date in it, each time the button is clicked a one more text box should be addto that place holder, and previous text boxes should also retain there values selected by user.
And at the end when i click on save button, i want to get the values of textboxes in placeholder control.
