ASP.NET 4.0 Web Control ClientID

0 comments

In ASP.NET, each web control is identified uniquely using the ‘ID’ property of the control. We can access the server controls in the code behind using this ‘ID’ property. However, when the web form with server side controls renders in the form of HTML, the server side ID gets converted into client side ID.

Hello Program in Silverlight using Expression Blend & Visual Studio

0 comments
Install Expression Studio (it includes Blend, Encoder, Design, Web applications) for Visual Studio so that we can start developing Silverlight by using either Visual Studio or Expression Blend. Finally, what we have here is, Expression Blend adds the features to existing Visual Studio.Creating "Hello" Program using Expression Blend

Let's start Expression Blend; you will get the following splash screen at first.

Blend1.gif

This screen loads all necessarily program files to memory for building Silverlight Application. After a couple of seconds, you will get the following screen.

Blend2.gif

In this screenshot, look at the items in the red circle.

Projects

This tab lets us open any recently used projects from a list, create a new project or open any existing projects.

Help

This tab lets us open the User Guide by visiting online tutorials or web communities.

Samples

This tab provides sample projects developed by Expression Blend development team from Microsoft or somebody else.

Now, let's click on the "New Project" option; you will get the following screen.

Blend3.gif

As marked in screenshot.

Project Types

In the above screenshot, look at the red rectangle. There are two project type options available; Silverlight and WPF. Here are some major differences between them.

Silverlight and WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) are two different products from Microsoft, but they have lots of overlap. WPF is a Microsoft technology meant for developing enhanced graphics applications for desktop platform. In addition, WPF applications can be hosted on web browsers which offer rich graphics features for web applications, but it is limited to Operating Systems. Web Browser Applications (WBA), developed on WPF technology uses XAML (read as Zameel) to host user interface for browser applications. XAML stands for eXtended Application Markup Language which is a new declarative programming model from Microsoft. XAML files are hosted as discrete files in the Web server, but are downloaded to the browsers and converted to user interface by the .NET runtime in the client browsers. WPF runs on .NET runtime and developers can take advantage of the rich .NET Framework and WPF libraries to build really cool windows applications. WPF supports 3-D graphics, complex animations, hardware acceleration etc.

In this article we will see how we can reduce Silverlight application's xap size. As you know themes are provided by Silverlight Toolkit. But if you include multiple themes your application would be too big.C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v3.0\Toolkit\Jul09\Themes
Now suppose you need a theme style from Shiny Red a Shiny Blue for two different Buttons.

Open the related xaml in Visual Studio IDE.

Search for Button and you will be navigated to Button Style.

Copy the Button Style to your App.xaml.

Don't forget to copy the namespaces too.

xmlns
:vsm="clr-namespace:System.Windows;assembly=System.Windows"
Give a x:Key value to the Style in our case BlueStyle and RedStyle.

Copy the StaticResource constants and change the key appropriately. (You have change it carefully where you are using it.)

Here is the Xaml for the blue theme style buttons.

When we don't want to use Windows Credentials to validate a user, we can utilize the ASP.NET infrastructure to implement our own authentication infrastructure which includes a custom login page that validates a user against credentials such as a database and later established security context on each request. ASP.NET leverages it's framework to support cookies and establishes the security context for each web request; this is called form authentication.

Implementing the QT Algorithm using C#

0 comments
Quality Threshold (or QT) is an algorithm used in cluster analysis which is described in this Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_analysis).

The basic idea of cluster analysis is to partition a set of points into clusters which have some relationship to each other. In the case of QT the user chooses the maximum diameter (i.e. distance between points) that a cluster can have and each point is then considered in turn, along with its neighbors, and allocated to a cluster.

The source code is listed below in case it is of interest to anyone else involved in this specialized field.

Select Single Radio Button in Gridview in Asp.Net

1 comments
In this article we will learn how to select only one row of a GridView using RadioButtons whereas normally a RadioButton does not support selection of only one RadioButton within a row.

Background:

In ASP.Net the GridView control does not support selection of a single RadioButton that works as a group across rows. Generally as you know a RadioButton is a control that works in a group for selecting only one option. If we take RadioButtonList control it will work everywhere, which applies to a GridView also but if we use only one RadioButton control for each row in GridView it will not allow us to select only one. Try selecting a RadioButton in every row; it will allow selection of multiple rows in GridView. Here we will see how to restrict the user to select only one RadioButton within a GridView control.

For doing this task need to write some Javascript function. We will step by step follow.

Step 1:

Start new website. Put the GridView control on the Default.aspx page with RadioButton control in TemplateField like bellow.

<asp:GridView
ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            DataKeyNames="AuthId">            <Columns>            <asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="false">            <ItemTemplate>            <asp:RadioButton ID="rdbauthid" runat="server" onclick="javascript:CheckOtherIsCheckedByGVID(this);" />            </ItemTemplate>            </asp:TemplateField>            <asp:BoundField HeaderText="AUTHOR NAME" DataField="AuthName" />            <asp:BoundField HeaderText="AUTHOR LOCATION" DataField="AuthLocation" />            </Columns>
        </asp:GridView>

In the above you may see that in the Click event of the RadioButton control I call a Javascript function.

Step 2:

Write the script as below for checking the current selection of the RadioButton control; if more than one is selected then the other selection is removed. Other than this there are two more methods to do same task.
<script type="text/javascript">            function CheckOtherIsCheckedByGVID(spanChk) {
                var IsChecked = spanChk.checked;
                if (IsChecked) {
                    spanChk.parentElement.parentElement.style.backgroundColor = '#228b22';
                    spanChk.parentElement.parentElement.style.color = 'white';
                }
                var CurrentRdbID = spanChk.id;
                var Chk = spanChk;
                Parent = document.getElementById("<%=GridView1.ClientID%>");
                var items = Parent.getElementsByTagName('input');
                for (i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
                    if (items[i].id != CurrentRdbID && items[i].type == "radio") {
                        if (items[i].checked) {
                            items[i].checked = false;
                            items[i].parentElement.parentElement.style.backgroundColor = 'white'
                            items[i].parentElement.parentElement.style.color = 'black';
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
</script>

Verify Email Online

We had a database of hundreds of emails which were collected over years. The problem here is that some of the email exists, some do not. So while sending notifications to clients, the retuned invalid user mail messages require a lot of manual work to clear them. Our idea is to verify whether an email exists before sending the mail. Everything should be automatic and less time consuming.

How to Access/Manipulate HTML Elements/Javascript in Silverlight

0 comments

Interacting between HTML and ASP.NET has been one of the most common coding scenarios we have come across; i.e. accessing HTMLl elements and calling JavaScript from code behind.To add Silverlight content to an existing page and allow the HTML and Silverlight portions of the page to interact.

When we need this interaction: So let us see initially what could be probable scenarios where we need to interact / access HTML in Silverlight page.
  1. To make compatible: When we want to use the latest and greatest user interfaces with Silverlight, this requires compatibility with HTML. Situations could be like including a Silverlight content region to show non-essential extras alongside the critical HTML content.
     
  2. Legacy web pages: If we have an existing web page that does exactly what we want, it may make more sense to extend it with a bit of Silverlight pizzazz than to replace it outright. So the solution is to create a page that includes both HTML and Silverlight content.
     
  3. Server-side features: We know that Silverlight is a poor fit for tasks that need to access server resources or require high security, which is why it makes far more sense to build a secure checkout process with a server-side programming framework like ASP.NET. But you can still use Silverlight to display advertisements, video content, product visualizations, and other value-added features in the same pages.

So, let's try to BRIDGE this gap between Silverlight and the ordinary world of HTML.

What is this BRIDGE: This BRIDGE is built using a Silverlight set of managed classes (commonly called Helper classes) that replicate the HTML DOM (document object model), and we can access these classes by namespace, System.Window.Browser.

What are these Classes and what they do?

Ok, so let's start using these classes to interact with HTML from Silverlight page.

Step 1: Create a Silverlight application and name it BrowserInteraction.

Step 2: Open main.xaml; in this project we will use multiple classes so to demonstrate each functionality; we will create a listbox to display functionality and a border to see the result.

Step 3: Create a Listbox and a border (Border is a content control, so we call show control which will display result), so the xaml looks like this:
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">        <Grid.RowDefinitions>            <RowDefinition Height="*"></RowDefinition>            <RowDefinition Height="Auto"></RowDefinition>            <RowDefinition Height="3*"></RowDefinition>           
        
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <ListBox x:Name="lst" SelectionChanged="lst_SelectionChanged">            <ListBoxItem Content="BrowserInfo"></ListBoxItem>            <ListBoxItem Content="ReadHTMLtag"></ListBoxItem>            <ListBoxItem Content="PlayWithHTMLElement"></ListBoxItem>        </ListBox>      <controls:GridSplitter Margin="0 3 " HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="2"                             Grid.Row="1"                             ></controls:GridSplitter>        <Border BorderBrush="SlateGray" Grid.Row="2" x:Name="PagePlaceholder" BorderThickness="2"                Background="AliceBlue"                ></Border>    </Grid>
Step 4: Add silverlight page as a new element. Here we will use it to show browser information.
silver2.gif

Write this xaml;
<UserControl x:Class="BrowserIntegration.BrowserDetail"    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Width="400" Height="300"  Loaded="UserControl_Loaded">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White" Margin="10">        <TextBlock x:Name="lblInfo" TextWrapping="Wrap" ></TextBlock>    </Grid></UserControl>

Step 5: In browserdetail.xaml.cs, add namespace
using System.Windows.Browser

Step 6: Write handler for UserControl_Loaded
 private void LayoutRoot_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
 {
     BrowserInformation b = HtmlPage.BrowserInformation;
     lblInfo.Text = "Name: " + b.Name;
     lblInfo.Text += "\nBrowser Version: " + b.BrowserVersion;
     lblInfo.Text += "\nPlatform: " + b.Platform;
     lblInfo.Text += "\nCookies Enabled: " + b.CookiesEnabled;
     lblInfo.Text += "\nUser Agent: " + b.UserAgent;
 }
Step 7: Go back in mail.xmal.cs and write a handler for listbox to call Browserdetail.xaml.
private void lst_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
     string newpage = ((ListBoxItem)e.AddedItems[0]).Content.ToString();
     Type type = this.GetType();
     Assembly asm = type.Assembly;
     UserControl Page = (UserControl)asm.CreateInstance(type.Namespace + "." + newpage);
     PagePlaceholder.Child = Page;
}

You can also use Navigation framework to call other Silverlight page.
