I have been hosting my web site with godaddy for about 6 month now (shared hosting). Recently, I am experiencing a huge delay when sending emails (45 min or more). I tried contacting their support and this was their response:

Unfortunately, when messages are sent from scripts on a Windows shared hosting account, there should be a 30 minute to an hour delay. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Let us know if we can help you in any other way.

First of all my application is not a script, it is ASP.NET application,
second of all I definitely did not expect that kind of answer.
My application must be able to interact with user via email and that kind of a delay is completely intolerable.
When I called their support I was put on perpetual hold... I am pretty mach fed up with GoDaddy...

Does anyone else have similar issue with GoDaddy.
Can anyone suggest another non expensive reliable host?

I have found that emails can be pretty slow, I just implimented them last night. One suggestion - use a different mail server to the one they provide. It's their mail server that is the bottleneck, surely ?

Hi Chris.
Thanks for reply. It is definitely their mail server.
I thought of installing an email server on my home PC but that means that I'll have to relay my messages through my ISP and when someone looks at the email and discovers that I am using "Rogers" (local provider) it will seem unprofessional.

Do you know any other strategies to tackle this issue? I honestly think to move to another hosting provider. I had way to many issues with GoDaddy.

How would someone work out what server the email went through, without doing a lot of digging ?

What issues ? We're just starting with them

IE Cookie Problem

Hi guys,

I'm having a problem with deleting a cookie in internet explorer. I've got some code that calls the Response.Cookies[CookieName].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddYears(-30); line to try to delete a cookie.

This works fine in Firefox and Safari (haven't tried any others) but it just doesn't work at all in internet explorer 7. I'm really at a loss as to why this is. Any ideas?

I've also tried creating a new cookie with a negative expiration date that has the same name as the old cookie but this doesn't work in IE either (works fine in firefox and safari again).

Thanks

Finn

1. did you delete the cookie? I think you don't need to minus off 30 years for deleting the cookie. you can just minus 1 day to make the cookie expired.

Example ~

if ( Request.Cookies["UserSettings"] != null )<br />
        {<br />
            HttpCookie myCookie = new HttpCookie ("UserSettings");<br />
            myCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays (-1d);<br />
            Response.Cookies.Add (myCookie);<br />
        }

Ref: How to: Delete a Cookie [^]

2. Make sure both cookies (the one you already created and the one that you added to clear the cookies ) are in the same path.

I am new to ASP.Net. I worked very little with ASP.Net1.1. Now I am learning 2.0. I have created simple 3 pages application and stored in my local drive. The files aspx and aspx.cs are there in my local. Now I would like to open my application to develop more. How can I do that? Like in asp.net1.1, I used to have a .sln file. If I click the file it used to load the entire application in VS 2003.. Please do tell me how can I open my existing application and work more? Thank you.

You need to use Open Website to open it. By default, .NET 2 doesn't include the solution files for Web Site solutions.

GridView on MultiView / View with MenuItems to change Views - the problem

Member 470022511-Dec-07 8:01

Member 4700225

11-Dec-07 8:01

"I am using MultiView / View controls which change by MenuItem clicks. Each view has a GridView on it with Edit and Insert features bound with <b>SqlDataSources</b>
The problem is: when the edit button is clicked, the GridView disappears and you need to click on the MenuItem again to see it (it happens evrytime you click edit, update, cancel or insert buttons on the GridView)."
Solution Suggested:
In Page_load -
if (!Page.IsPostBack){
//Getting the data from database
//Bind the data to Gridview
// Add this datasource to cache or session (e.g. Cache["mydata"]= dsProject.Table[0]; )
}
else{
//Re-bind the gridview with datasource from cache. (e.g. GridView1.DataSource = (DataTable)Cache["mydata"]
}
<u>To Michael Sync:</u> Hi Michael - the problem is Im using SqlDataSources with the GridViews not DataSets. If I want to change them - it will be lot of changes. Any other suggestions?

Thanks.

1. Can you check whether the GV got disappeared or not without using MultiView Control? Just want to make sure what the problem is. I think it will work.

2. If your gridview works okay without multiview, it might be MultiView1.SetActiveView problem. Can you check whether your the EnableViewState property of MultiView and the views which are in MultiView are true or not. (Ensure that you have checked each and every views.)

Hi Michael,

In the MenuItems Click event handler, I did already set the ActiveViewIndex to the appropriate index depending on the MenuItem Click, so that should not be a problem. After I read your suggestions, I used SetActiveView instead of ActiveViewIndex. I did EnableViewState="true" for all of them, I even did EnableCaching="true" for the SqlDataSource. Everything works fine as they used to - Except the GridView disappears with edit, update, cancel, insert button clicks. You need to click on the MenuItem again to see it.

I was also thinking that its happening because of the MultiViews. But interestingly, even if I move my GridView out of the MultiView, still does the same. What a puzzle!!!

I am confident though that you can give me more clues!

Thanks so much.

How to use a datagrid in a user control

First time here and I hope to get lucky Smile | :)

I have a really strange problem. My problem is that I can't add a DataGrid to a user control. When I have the code below in a control and register it in web.config it won't show up in the intellisense. If I comment out the DataGrid it works fine. The codebehind is empty.

I register the control in the web.config, but that shouldn't matter.

<code>

<![CDATA[<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" Codebehind="EBHObjectListFileControl.ascx.cs"
Inherits="EBHPresentation.Templates.Webcontrols.EBHObjectListFileControl" %>]]>
<asp:datagrid id="DataGridFileList" runat="server" onitemcommand="DataGridFileList_ItemCommand">
Font-Size="Small" ShowHeader="false" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<columns>
<asp:boundcolumn datafield="Id" visible="false" />
<asp:boundcolumn datafield="FileName1" visible="false" />
<asp:boundcolumn datafield="Date" visible="true" />
<asp:templatecolumn>
<itemtemplate>
<asp:linkbutton id="LinkButtonOpenDocument" commandname="OpenFile" runat="server">
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "FileName2") %>
</asp:linkbutton>
</itemtemplate>
</asp:templatecolumn>
<asp:templatecolumn>
<itemtemplate>
<asp:imagebutton id="ImageButtonDocumentDelete" commandname="DeleteFile" runat="server">
ImageUrl="../images/delete.gif" OnClientClick="if(!confirm('message')) return;" />
</asp:imagebutton></itemtemplate>
</asp:templatecolumn>
</columns>
</asp:datagrid>
</code>

Thanks and regards,

The code-behind file should not be emply. (You are using ASP.NET 1x, right? )

At least, it should be something like that ~

namespace WebApplication3<br />
{<br />
	using System;<br />
	using System.Data;<br />
	using System.Drawing;<br />
	using System.Web;<br />
	using System.Web.UI.WebControls;<br />
	using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;<br />
<br />
	/// <summary><br />
	///		Summary description for WebUserControl1.<br />
	/// </summary><br />
	public class WebUserControl1 : System.Web.UI.UserControl<br />
	{<br />
		protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGrid DataGrid1;<br />
<br />
		private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)<br />
		{<br />
			// Put user code to initialize the page here<br />
		}<br />
<br />
		#region Web Form Designer generated code<br />
		override protected void OnInit(EventArgs e)<br />
		{<br />
			//<br />
			// CODEGEN: This call is required by the ASP.NET Web Form Designer.<br />
			//<br />
			InitializeComponent();<br />
			base.OnInit(e);<br />
		}<br />
		<br />
		/// <summary><br />
		///		Required method for Designer support - do not modify<br />
		///		the contents of this method with the code editor.<br />
		/// </summary><br />
		private void InitializeComponent()<br />
		{<br />
			this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.Page_Load);<br />
<br />
		}<br />
		#endregion<br />
	}<br />
}<br />

I think there are some wrongs in creating the user control. How did you create your usercontrol? What you should do is that just add the Web User Control in your project. Then, add the DataGrid to your user control. that's all you need.

I don't know why that was added, it was added when I added the code.

Michael Sync wrote:

My bad, the code-behind is not totally empty. What I meant was that I haven't implemented any functionalty in the code-behind. I am using ASP.NET 2.0.

That's exactly how I have created the user control. The thing is that it's the datagrid that is causing problem. If I copy the datagrid to a control that is working that control will disappear in the intellisense.

Michael Sync wrote:

I register the control in the web.config instead of registering the control on every aspx page.

I wonder why you used ASP.NET DataGrid (which is old) in ASP.NET 2.0 while there is new control "GridView" available.

I might be an codeproject error. The CDATA tag is probably used when storing the code-block.

I didn't know that the DataGrid control was old. I will try the GridView instead and see if that works.

I was asking whether CDATA is automatically shown when you post your code in CP. (meaning CDATA doesn't actually exist in your code)

Datagrid is the control that we used to use in ASP.NET 1x project.
