Asp.net 4.5 Textbox–TextMode Property

Vijay — Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:55:00 +0100

ASP.Net 4.5 introduced more options to the Text Mode property: Color, Date, DateTime, DateTimeLocal, Email, Month, Number,Range, Search, Phone, Url, Week

But remember all these new options will work only with browsers supporting these HTML5 features (Ex: IE 10). For all other browsers these textbox's will behave as normal textbox.

Ps: Here is a nice website, where you can test your browser HTML5 features: http://html5test.com/

Asp.Net Security ebook

vijay — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 18:05:00 +0100

If you want to read one book about Asp.Net security, read OWASP Top 10 for .NET developer by Troy Hunt

There’s a harsh reality web application developers need to face up to; we don’t do security very well. A report from WhiteHat Security last year reported “83% of websites have had a high, critical or urgent issue”. That is, quite simply, a staggeringly high number and it’s only once you start to delve into to depths of web security that you begin to understand just how easy it is to inadvertently produce vulnerable code.

Make sure AjaxControlToolkit. Properties. Resources. NET4.resources was correctly embedded

vijay — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 21:16:23 +0100

Error Message:

Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture. Make sure "AjaxControlToolkit.Properties.Resources.NET4.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "AjaxControlToolkit" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

Reason:

AjaxControlToolkit’s control load reference refers to the base System.Web.UI.Control method which is present as a part of the ASP.NET AJAX Libraries and those libraries are referenced only when the ScriptManager is referenced in the page.

Solution:

Add ScriptManager in the page and this error would be resolved.

            <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
            </asp:ScriptManager>

URL length restrictions in SharePoint Foundation 2010

vijay — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 21:22:00 +0100

*URL part*	*Example*
Protocol	http://
Server name	www.contoso.com/
Folder or file path	sites/marketing/documents/Shared%20Documents/Promotion/
File name	Some%20File.xlsx

260 Unicode (UTF-16) code units – the characters in a full file path, not including a domain/server name.
256 Unicode (UTF-16) code units – the characters in a full folder path, not including the file name and the domain/server name.
128 Unicode (UTF-16) code units - characters in a path component, that is, a file or folder name.
260 Unicode (UTF-16) code units – the characters in a full path, including a domain/server name for use with Office clients.
256 Unicode (UTF-16) code units – the characters in a full path including the domain/server name, for use with Active X controls.

The above limitations apply to the total length of the URL path to a folder or a file in SharePoint Foundation 2010 but not to the length of any parameters. Also, these limitations apply only to un-encoded URLs, not to encoded URLs. There is no limit to encoded URLs in SharePoint Foundation 2010

AsyncFileUpload events with Update Panel

Vijay — Mon, 20 Sep 2010 18:22:00 +0100

Problem:

Last week I came across this bug (?) with AsyncFileUpload control in updatepanel. The control is not firing OnUploadedComplete server side event when it’s in updatepanel.

Solution:

After doing some research on this issue, came across these solutions.

1) Add another AsyncFileUpload control on the page and set its’ style to display:none;

<cc1:AsyncFileUpload ID="AsyncFileUpload1" runat="server" />

</div>

2) Another workaround is to add the following attributes to the <form> tag of the page..

enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"

Both the solutions are working fine.

SharePoint repeatedly prompts for login credentials

vijay — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 22:01:00 +0100

Symptoms:

After you enter credentials on SharePoint site login prompt, you will be thrown the login prompt repeatedly despite providing the right credentials.

Cause:

This issue occurs with default security settings of IE7 in windows server environment. The settings include a loopback check security feature that is designed to help prevent reflection attacks on your computer. Therefore, authentication fails.

It can also happen for users that are behind a secured network and browser settings are controlled by administrator.

Solution:

To work-around this problem, users need to turn off Integrated Windows Authentication in Internet Explorer.

In Internet Explorer, click on the Tools button, then choose Internet Options
Click on the advanced tab
Clear the Enable Integrated Windows Authentication option (In Security section) and Click “OK”
Close and restart Internet Explorer.

If the problem persists, you may need to manually add the team Web site to the list of trusted intranet sites. To do this, complete the following steps:

On the Internet Explorer toolbar, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
In the Internet Options dialog box, click the Security tab, and then select Local intranet.
Click Sites, and then click Advanced.
Type the URL of the team Web site in the Add this Web site to the zone box, click Add, and then click OK.

Disabled button not grayed out in Firefox and Chrome

vijay — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 21:08:00 +0100

When button is disabled, it’s not-clickable in all browsers. However in Firefox and Chrome, the button looks enabled, though the user cannot click it.

Reason:

From W3Scholl, "Enabled" Property isn't standard property of XHTML 4.

Solution:

You can modify the way they look with CSS

button[disabled] { 
 color:Grey;
/* Add other  styles here for disable button */ 
}
