Ajax Calendar always visible - c#

Is it possible to have an ajax calendar inside a div and make it be always visible,like asp:calendar? and highlight today's date and add some task to the calendar for different dates?
Thanks in advance

You could try placing an asp:calendar on a simple page, and picking apart the html that it generates until you get the effect that you are after.

There are three options I see.
Put the ASP:Calendar inside an Update Panel to mimic the AJAX effect. CHEAPEST AND EASIEST!
Write some JQUERY code that will look for the div on client side that has the visibility hidden and make it visible. See the visibility:hidden and display:none...that's what need to be changed. Then you will also have to write something else that will keep on setting this to display for each click and other event so that it is always displayed. THIS IS NOT A GOOD SOLUTION!
div id="ctl00_MainContent_ReportControl_CalendarExtender2_container" class="ajax__calendar" style="position: absolute; left: 766px; top: 775px; z-index: 1000; visibility: hidden; display: none;"
Use a 3rd party control like the Telerik RadCalendar.

Adding a Textbox destroys Menu-Layout

I'm working on a little project with ASP and C#.
In my project I'm using a masterpage for the navigationbar on the top of my pages, looking like that:
The navigationbar contains some normal navigation-points and one to log out with float: right;
On all of my diffenrent pages this works excepted for one.
The only difference is, that on this special page I have some textbox-elements like this:
<asp:TextBox ID="tbTOP1sum" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
As soon as I only enter one of this textboxes my navigationbar looks like that:
It doesn't matter what sort of element im adding, everything is okay, excepted with this textboxes.
I noticed that this only happens in Google-chrome, not with Firefox and not with Internet-Explorer or Edge. Another thing i found out is, that disabling and enabling the CSS-rule in Chrome-Page-Inspector fixes the problem.
I have no idea what to do...
Thanks in advance for your help!
I have the same issue sometimes. When you change it in the inspector go into your code and make the same change and save/build, go to the web browser and do a hard refresh with "ctrl+F5". If it still does not work, wrap your logout a link in a div and then call it in CSS. Set the position to relative, and then put the top: -55px;
It finally turned out, that adding display: inline; to the of the navigationbars <ul> is all to do.
Another way is to do it with table columns. One for the normal content and one for the logout.
Thanks for the other answers!

Asp Label in vb.net not capturing label text modified in javascript

I have the following label in vb.net:
<div style="height: 20px; vertical-align: text-bottom;">
<div style="float: left; width: 86%; text-align: right">
<b>Sub-Total</b> (a) through (e) above:
</div>
<div style="float: right; padding-right: 10px">
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblRateableEmployeesSubtotal" CssClass="lblRateableEmployeesSubtotalCls" Text="0"></asp:Label>
</div>
</div>
And I am dynamically adjusting this value in from a javascript function:
$('.lblRateableEmployeesSubtotalCls').text(numberWithCommas(subtotal));
This function is called whenever certain textboxes are changed. numberWithCommas just formats the text into a number format (x,xxx).
When I am trying to save these values in my codebehind, for some reason the labels' text is still showing as "0"! Even though it is clearly updated on the screen.
If lblRateableEmployeesSubtotal.Text > "" Then .TotalEmployees = CInt(lblRateableEmployeesSubtotal.Text)
Any idea why this could be happening?
ASP doesn't bother to include this information when it performs a postback, specifically because the whole idea of a label isn't to accept input from the client. When posting back ASP doesn't send the entire DOM; it only sends the information for fields specifically designed to accept input from the client.
In this case, the appropriate tool to use here is a Hidden control. Add an asp:HiddenField control to the page, set that control's value in your JavaScript code (you can set the label too, of course) and then inspect the value of the hidden field on the server side.
Only Input-type controls are posted back to the server. One possible solution in your case is simulate label with read-only flat-styled TextBox control.
That jQuery function only changes the text on the client, server doesn't know anything about any changes to the page until you send a POST request, but in that request by default only values of the INPUT elements are sent.
If you want to alter some things on the server using javascript on the client you're looking for the AJAX technology. If not, consider obtaining the value on the server from an input control like text box or make some hidden fields which will be updated in the same time as your label.
Sorry for my english.

Can't change position of buttons in C# ASP.net

I use VS 2010 . I add button to webfrom that created, but I can't change his position.
I read in previous questions that I need to change the layout to absolute , but it didn't work. when I drag the button to the center it's back automatically to left-center..
you can see that in the picture:
how can I fix that?
Thank you!!
solution:
Tools -> Options, and set HTML Designer -> CSS Styling to "Change positioning to absolute.."
Changing the position to absolute seems more like a workaround which would introduce further problems after "solving" this one. Unless you really know what you're doing for styling, don't do that.
Centering an element on a webpage is really a matter for the CSS styling. Take a look at the markup (HTML) view and find where that button is. You can add a class to that button for the CSS styling:
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="Button1" CssClass="centeredButton" ...
Then in your site's CSS file (Site.css might be the standard in the ASP.NET template? I don't remember) you can apply the styling you're looking for. There's a lot you can do at that point. Not knowing how the rest of the page is laid out, I can only offer very random suggestions. Something like this for example:
.centeredButton {
display: block;
margin: auto;
}
That's one way to center that particular element. There are definitely more, depending on how the rest of the markup/layout is structured.
First of all i recommend not to use this drag options. Because what happens behind this whenever you drag a button or anything, will make you more confused. You can do it using div or table.

Custom button in HtmlEditorExtender control?

I'm in dire need of assistance.
I need to add a custom button to an HtmlEditorExtender control, but I'm lacking the know-how to actually do that.
I've searched throughout this forum but no information was relevant or whatsoever.
Should someone be so kind to help, I need an example to help me sort this issue out.
Thanks in advance.
One possibility is to add it to the DIV containing the buttons using javascript. I do it using jQuery.
If you inspect the DIV in Firefox, you'll notice that it has a class named 'ajax__html_editor_extender_buttoncontainer'. Knowing this class allows you to select the container and add your own custom button to it.
To do so, add the following jQuery script in the HTML below your HtmlEditorExtender:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
// retrieve button container div using its class
$btnContainer = $(".ajax__html_editor_extender_buttoncontainer");
if ($btnContainer.length == 1) {
// append your custom button to the collection of elements within the button container div
$btnContainer.append("<input id=\"HtmlEditorExtender_YourButtonName\" class=\"ajax__html_editor_extender_YourButtonName\" type=\"button\" name=\"YourButtonName\" title=\"YourButtonName\" style=\"width: 101px; height: 21px;\" unselectable=\"on\"></input>");
}
</script>
To style the button, create images for it and add the following to your style sheet:
/* custom button */
.ajax__html_editor_extender_YourButtonName {
background: url('/images/YourButtonName_off.png') no-repeat scroll;
cursor: pointer;
display: block;
float: right; /* default is left */
border: medium none;
}
.ajax__html_editor_extender_YourButtonName:hover {
background: url('/images/YourButtonName_on.png') no-repeat scroll;
}
The appearance of your button is of course up to you, but the result may look something like this:
Finally, to add functionality, add a click event to elements that have the class you specified. You can do this in your external .js file.
If you want to access the html of the textbox, inside that click you will want to retrieve the html of the first of two divs that have the attribute contenteditable='true'. This is the design view of the HtmlEditorExtender.
Add the following to your .js file:
// click event for the custom button
$("body").on("click", ".ajax__html_editor_extender_YourButtonName", function (e) {
var $editorDiv = $("div[contenteditable='true']").first();
alert($editorDiv.html());
})
There's probably a more efficient way to get the design view but it'll work.

adding conditional requiredFieldValidators to dynamically created form in c# asp.net

Ok,
i have a fully rendered dynamic form ( i do not know the content of the form, it is provided to my via a webservice )
i used asp.net RequiredFieldValidator for validation, because i read in this article that we could dynamically switch validators on and off depending if the field is visible or not
with the ValidatorEnable(val, enabled) function.
though now that i got the form rendered, i'm running into a bit of trouble with this javascript, as i don't want to put it in the aspx file itself, (don't have a control there anyway since the form is build up in codebehind from the webservice data...)
so i took a look at the clientId and it turns out the validator's client ID is the id of the span it renders to.
so i tried running this in firebug to test if i could enable / disable one of those validators, but that seems not to be possible, a jQuery span element does not have a property to enable it.
ValidatorEnable($("#ContentPlaceHolderDefault_MasterWithNavContent_Poll_4_reqAnswer_373ac8b7_8da9_467b_b9b4_d586e45a7504"), false);
and the html that goes with this
<div class="question-container question-odd" id="ContentPlaceHolderDefault_MasterWithNavContent_Poll_4_question-373ac8b7-8da9-467b-b9b4-d586e45a7504">
<div class="question-meta">
<h3 class="validation-label">Which club have you visited?</h3>
<span style="display: block; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 5px;" class="error validation" id="ContentPlaceHolderDefault_MasterWithNavContent_Poll_4_reqAnswer_373ac8b7_8da9_467b_b9b4_d586e45a7504">Please fill out this field.</span>
</div>
<input type="text" class="answer-container text" id="ContentPlaceHolderDefault_MasterWithNavContent_Poll_4_answer_373ac8b7_8da9_467b_b9b4_d586e45a7504" name="ctl00$ctl00$ctl00$ContentPlaceHolderDefault$MasterWithNavContent$Poll_4$answer_373ac8b7_8da9_467b_b9b4_d586e45a7504">
</div>
Does someone know where i'm going wrong here?
maybe I'm to quick to jump from the serverside ClientId to the <span> which the RFV renders into? but they seem exactly the same.
hope someone can point me in the good direction!
Maybe a better approach would be to loop through the client-side array of validators (Page_Validators) and find the validator which you want to disable.
See also this MSDN page and this codeproject article for more information.
Perhaps a more appropriate way to do this would be
ValidatorEnable($("<%= reqAnswer.ClientID %>")[0], false);
Using <%= reqAnswer.ClientID %> avoids having to guess at or hard-code the client-side ID of the validator. Adding [0] after the jQuery $() gets the actual validator DOM element instead of the jQuery wrapper.
