Re: Gtting error while reading XML - ASP.NET Discussion Boards

hi in my propject i want to show some data without gridview control. also i want to include paging in it. is there any third party controls for it. please help me to do it.
thanks in advance

Yes, there are third party controls. Or, you could write your own. An obvious way is to write a proc that returns one page at a time, and put the page number on the URL.

i have created one. but it shows some difficulties in paging. if there is 40 pages in that i want to show first 10 indexes in the paging. and when the user clicks on 10, i want to show from 10 to 15. how can i do it.

Yes you can creat a custom control for it.
I think it is better option instead of using 3 party tool
You can have all the functionality that you required as you(custom control) would be responsible rendering the page.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'd say there is an unexpected token, which is 'NAME'. I'm not sure what else you'd like us to tell you. You haven't posted code or anything, so you can't want to know how to fix the error ?

Have you looked at the XML that causes this error ?

Hi Anand,

the line numbers mentioned in the error message might not be exact, but check if there are elements in the xml file having multiple attributes but without space between each attribute & value pair i.e. some spacing error.

Anand

To,
Christian, Rajeesh and all,

Regarding to the current thread, I am currently working on this problem and found 1 intresting point.

The point is I am getting this error only when my code is uploaded on the server. The same code, I have uploaded, is working smoothly on my local IIS.

I think this is related to seme XML version problem?????? please help me.

Thanks.

Anand

hi,

i am using this code in my asp.net with c# code behind..

Page.RegisterStartupScript("as", " alert('Your Profile Was Updated')");

while running this aspx.page i am getting Meaasage with Exclamation symbol..

what i need is i dont want the Exclamation symbol in my popup message box.. tell me the answer...

regards,
vidhya.s

Thats why it is called alert. It is going to show Exclamation symbol.
I don't think you can change that symbol it is inbuild.
Whats the problem in exclamation mark ?

Thanks and Regards
Sandeep

The alert is not configurable, like the message box in client apps. These popups are nasty, it's generated by a postback, why not set a label on the page ?

hi all
I want create Key for my web. everyone computer only one key.

You want to create a license key for the server, or for every user of your web site ? If the latter, you can't, a web app can't find out stuff like the processor Id.

I am handing a GridView fully in client-side(am using callbacks to avoid page refresh). that is, i am having a certain No. of records in a GridView each bound with a check box, and while checking each of the checkboxes, i am doing some operation internally.

When press F5 or refresh the page, the selected records are cleared.

(To avoid this problem, i used ViewState to maintain the each record's status. But was helpless. But Session did well.)

The concern is, i shouldn't use any Session Variables, and even after F5 the records must be without modifications.

Or else, is it possible to avoid such page refreshing?

Thanks in advance.

I think we should not capture any browser events except for the worst case.
Your application is behaving as it should,User clicks refresh button/F5 to get last/latest/reset content.
I don't understand why you want to restrict user not to click F5. If any data is getting lost then it totally beacuse of user unknowingness.
Any way take a look at this article, Not so easy to avoid page refresh

Thanks for the article sandeep.

The reason why i wanted to avoid is, i am selecting a No of records from a gridview that is in my page, where i use callback mechanism, to avoid page postback. The thing is, i don't render gridview to client side.

So, obviously when F5 is pressed, the checked values will be lost..!!

Hello Friends,
I have a problem in redirect a page.i m using C#.net 2005 .i hv a dropdown list which is bind data from database Like State when i m selecting an item in dropdownlist then the corrospondin District should be come in the second dropdownlist. butit never comes.. there is a problem comes"The specified URL can not be found" I m writing the code below for beter understand.

{
con.Open();
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("select State from StateInfo order by StateName asc", con);
dr = com.ExecuteReader();
while (dr.Read() == true)
{
drp_regionname.Items.Add(dr[0].ToString());
}
dr.Close();

}
}

protected void drp_regionname_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

string RegionName = drp_regionname.SelectedValue.ToString();
SqlCommand com1 = new SqlCommand("select district from DistrictInfo where StateName ='" + RegionName + "'", con);
con.Open();
dr = com1.ExecuteReader();
while (dr.Read())

Could explain where is the problem ?
Where are you redirecting to another page ?
drp_unitname drop down list is not getting populated with items ?

Thanks and Regards
Sandeep

from ur code it seems u r not redirecting ur page anywhere. the same page is posted back.

As far as the URL not found error , check the "REDIRECT" code u have written and see whether the target page u r specifying exists in ur website. could u post the conn string info as well as the redirect section of ur code.

Your code is filling drop down from database on PageLoad, if region name selection changes, it inserts additional data from the db (not clearing previous data from the drop down!, is it what you want?)

I don't see any redirection at all!

However, few tips:
1. in sqlcommand, always use Parameters instead of concatenated strings as a query, to prevent sql injection (security flaw):
SqlCommand com1 = new SqlCommand("select district from DistrictInfo where StateName = @RegionName", con);
com1.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@RegionName", RegionName));

2. be sure you are closing connection to database when you don't need it anymore

3. use 'using' clause when possible, to ensure your IDisposible objects are going to be disposed in all cases (no need to call dr.Close(), as it is going to be called in Dispose() method:
using (dr = com1.ExecuteReader())
{
while (dr.Read())
{
drp_unitname.Items.Add(dr[0].ToString());
}
}

4. use exception handling, try {...} catch {...} blocks, at least in event handlers

Hi masters!

I've a table in Access that has 4 columns.
How can I add records to it without having to bind any control(s) (Text Box, Dropdown List, ...).

A preliminary tutorial on insert to MsAccess can be had off from here:
