I've put together some HTCs using FrontPage (only for the site nav - which is actually a local directory - since I hate WYSIWYG) and thought I'd just hit the Browser Compatibility tool for the hell of it. It said that the <public:component> root element is not supported in Internet Explorer 5.0. The HTC reference docs say otherwise (just saying that minimum availability is "Internet Explorer 5".
Unfortunately, all our machines in this building - including the OS images we use for testing - all have IE 6 (I know, not a very good myriad of test images). I tried using FireFox with the user agent switcher and went to the MSDN Library (that uses HTCs for IE) but it delivers the same hard-to-navigate tree for IE 5.0 (using that user agent string) as FireFox / Netscape / etc. HTCs I know are supported by IE 5.0, but I just can't determine if the root <public:component> is (since I want to avoid conflicts by using the behavior name to distinguish exposed HTC members). Can anyone tell me for sure? TIA

Hi,
the development team i work in consists of myself and a designer (massive work force i know). anyway, we have come to the conclussion that we need some versioning/source control measures to prevent overwritting each others work which happens often as one or the other may need to make changes while the other is out or whatever. We are trialing Visual SourceSafe. the designer is a hardliner and insists that there 'can be only one' copy of the project and we develop on that one copy (friggin nightmare). i am twisting his arm and he is fighting me but now has agreed that yes, we need to prevent some catastrophy where we loose that one copy or cannot roll it back to a previous version etc etc. We both use Dreamweaver for general web development however i use vs.net for the programming side (and any wysiwyg matters on pages as dreamweaver kicks vs.net's back-side in that area) and dreamweaver (sometimes concurrently). is there any one else out there that follows this same development plan, what are the problems they have may encountered. considering we're not experts with sourcesafe and some initial problems we're having is that dreamweaver ends up with duplicate copies of folders. if this is down to the way the vss database is setup with each website as a project we don't know yet.

I've ran a few test cases with Microsoft Application Center Test, but someone told me that requests are issued "Synchronously" (single thread) -- Is this true?

hmmmmm
to get database data into javascript (without exposing usernames / passwords on the client) requires u corss the server - client barrier ... get the data server side and render the pages with it in javascript arrays on the client side
this of course is a static snapshot of the data as of when the page was rendered and not true dynamic data

Is there a way to redirect the top frame from within an iFrame on the Server side code?
I know that I can Response.Write some javascript that sets the top.document.location.href property but I would be more than happy to do it on the server.
Any tricks?
Any ideas?
Any tips?
Thanking you in advance!

Hi there,
I'm afraid not, your server-side code is in response to a request from the IFrame, thus the server has no knowledge of the outer frame - only the client does.
The only way you can do this is whatever action in the iframe HTML document that caused the request (e.g. form submission) was done via the outer frame. That is, the iframe document uses javascript to call the outer frame to initiate the request.
But in reality we are just moving the goal posts - bottom line is, to achieve what you want will require client-side scripting.
Perhaps what I should ask is why use an iframe? can you not achieve what you want to do with nested tables ??
Hope this helps,
Andy

Thank you for your reply,
Yes, I could use nested tables.
The reason I am using IFrame is to avoid sending same HTML code to the client multiple times as this tool will be used alot.
I need to check if the user is logged and if the user has permission to view each page. So I guess that I will have to use client-side script to redirect to the SignIn Page if the user isn't logged.
I have been writting ASP for 5 years and this is my first project on ASP.NET.
I am impressed by the ASP.NET architecture as it makes it so easy to build proper 3-Tier architecture applications.
So far all Administration pages I have done in Classic ASP, I have used the IFrame.
ASP.NET differs so much from classic ASP that I even thought that Microsoft might have provided some way to tackle such problems.
Thank you for your reply though.;P

Hiya,
Yeah I've done a couple of ASP.NET projects now and totally love it compared to the ASP projects I've done in the past.
The only issue I have with it is the event modelling creates far too much client-server traffic for my liking. In ASP I used to create an XMLHTTP component at the client-side and refresh parts of the screen using XML data and a server command page that accepted events (XML) and returned the results. It made for a nice, clean updating architecture.
Have you got round to reading the overview of ASP.NET 2.0 yet? At last, proper page templating  + skinning , Client Callback Manager which reduces post-backs and Membership Service which maybe something of interest for you. All in all I can't wait for 2.0 - at last ASP will be the definitive development platform

Well, at work we installed the VS.NET Widbey beta on an old PC.
I saw that there are a lot of changes. The Master pages with placeholders etc...
Seems exciting. We shall see, in 2005 it will be released. Until then, happy programming with .NET 1.1  ;P

Just 2 questions which I need to have answered plase.
1. Did you have a chance to think about my question of yesterday? Basically, there is an agency and agent table. There is a 1-to-many relationship between the agency and agent tables. One agency can have many agents, and each agent can belong to only one agency. Now, a principal (owner of the agency) can also be regarded as an agent, but can also have admin properties. The GUI for the normal agent and the principal will be different, because the principal can also add, delete, and modify properties, and can also have additional properties like add, delete or modify agent info. How do I specify permissions? I want use one login in screen, and from there it should be determined if it is a normal agent, or the principal that is logging in.
2. I came to you with this problem a while ago, and I don’t think you could help me back then. Maybe you know the answer now. How do you store login details in your db? I have a user table that contains a username and password. Only the password should be case-sensitive. For example, if the password is stored as myPassword in the db, then if the user types in MyPassword it should bring back no result. I can’t seem to figure out this case-sensitive issue with SQL server and Access. Both bring back a positive result and it doesn’t matter what case was used. I only want it to bring back a positive result if myPassword was entered.
Thanks guys!!!

Hi there,
Have a foreign key in the agent table that determines what type of agent they are, eg.
Table tblUserType
ID Desription
================================
0 default agent
50 principal
1000 superuser
and then in your agent table add an extra column that is a foreign key to the new tblUserType.
You could extend the tblUserType to have other columns that list the type of activities allowed - but in reality you'd normalize that to another table.
Also, probably worth creating a view that INNER JOINS with any other tables that holds information about a user, such that on your login screen you can quiz the view WHERE userid = < user id given > and get all the attributes you need.
As for case-sensitive - I'm afraid SQL and ACCESS are case insensitive. The only way round this is to generate a unique key when the password is created (and amended), e.g.
In the agent table, create another column that will hold the unique key as well as the password string
then, below is an example of how you would generate the unique key to use in this column
(Pseudo-code)
var strPassword = "myPassword";
var id = for(i=0;i < strPassword.length; i++) id += ascii(strPassword[i]);
...
...
insert row(strPassword, id)
Now you can search for it in SQL
SELECT UserId FROM tblUser WHERE password = 'myPassword' and id=1081;
The id 1081 comes from the ascii values:
m = ASCII 109
y = ASCII 121
P = ASCII 80
a = ASCII 97
s = ASCII 115
s = ASCII 115
w = ASCII 119
o = ASCII 111
r = ASCII 114
d = ASCII 100
=============
1081
=============
The id generated for "MyPassword" say, would be:
M = ASCII 77
y = ASCII 121
P = ASCII 80
a = ASCII 97
s = ASCII 115
s = ASCII 115
w = ASCII 119
o = ASCII 111
r = ASCII 114
d = ASCII 100
=============
1049
=============
You must remember though that if the user can change their password YOU MUST generate the new id too!
Hope this helps,
Andy

In your table cells (td tags), change all the widths to 33% and add the align="center" attribute too them.

Hi folks,
I'm having a heck of a time trying to get this problem fixed. Here are the details.
We have a form that users enter date and time information into. The first field is receive date (mm/dd/yyyy and 2400 hour formats), the second field is the resolve date (mm/dd/yyyy and 24 hour format). What we do from here is compare them and get various information. Such as work time, total problem time, and stand by time. We also attempt to count each day as an 8 hour work day by getting rid of 16 hours per day.
I can get my math to work for a single month, but when the month changes (ie- 05/31/2004 for receive time and 06/01/2004 for resolve time) I get a negative value. Now the way my code is written, this is correct...the problem is that I need it to show as 8 hours TPT and not -520.
Any ideas how this might be corrected???
Here is the code:
<br />
function dateDiff(dateform) {<br />
date1 = new Date();<br />
date2 = new Date();<br />
date3 = new Date();<br />
date4 = new Date();
date5 = new Date();
fdayofour = 1072933200000;<br />
diff = new Date();<br />
<br />
if (isValidDate(dateform.ReceiveDate.value) && isValidTime(dateform.ReceiveTime.value)) {
date1temp = new Date(dateform.ReceiveDate.value + " " + dateform.ReceiveTime.value);<br />
date1.setTime(date1temp.getTime());<br />
}<br />
else return false;
<br />
if (isValidDate(dateform.ResolveDate.value) && isValidTime(dateform.ResolveTime.value)) {
date2temp = new Date(dateform.ResolveDate.value + " " + dateform.ResolveTime.value);<br />
date2.setTime(date2temp.getTime());<br />
}<br />
else return false;
<br />
if (isValidDate(dateform.CurrentDate.value) && isValidTime(dateform.CurrentTime.value)) {
date3temp = new Date(dateform.CurrentDate.value + " " + dateform.CurrentTime.value);<br />
date3.setTime(date3temp.getTime());<br />
}<br />
else return false;
<br />
if (date2temp < date1temp){<br />
alert("Date/Time Received cannot be greater than Date/Time Resolved");<br />
return false;<br />
} else if (date2temp>date3temp || date1temp>date3temp){<br />
alert("Date/Time Received/Resolved cannot be greater than the Current Date/Time");<br />
return false;<br />
} else;
<br />
date4temp = new Date(dateform.ReceiveDate.value);
date4.setTime(date4temp.getDate());<br />
<br />
rdate = date4temp.getDate();<br />
<br />
date5temp = new Date(dateform.ResolveDate.value);
date5.setTime(date5temp.getDate());<br />
<br />
rsdate = date5temp.getDate();<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
rsall = (date2.getTime() - fdayofour);<br />
rall = (date1.getTime() - fdayofour);<br />
rdate = ((rsall - rall) / (1000 * 60 * 60));<br />
<br />
diff.setTime(date2.getTime() - date1.getTime());<br />
<br />
timediff = diff.getTime();<br />
dtimediff = diff.getTime();<br />
mtimediff = diff.getTime();<br />
<br />
days = (dtimediff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));<br />
days = Math.floor(days);<br />
<br />
totdate = (rsdate - rdate);<br />
if (totdate >= 0){<br />
totdate = (totdate * 16);<br />
} else if (totdate < 0){<br />
totdate = (Math.round(days * 16))<br />
}<br />
mins = (mtimediff / (1000 * 60));<br />
hours = (mins / 60);<br />
hours = (hours - totdate);<br />
alert(rdate);<br />
worktime = Math.round((dateform.WorkTime.value * 10) /10);<br />
totalproblemtime = Math.round((hours * 10) /10);<br />
standbytime = totalproblemtime - worktime;<br />
standbytime = Math.round(standbytime *10)/10;<br />
dateform.WorkTime.value = worktime;<br />
dateform.StandByTime.value = standbytime;<br />
dateform.TotalProblemTime.value = totalproblemtime;<br />
return false;
}<br />

Hi there,
Are you using IE on a Win. platform? If so you could include a VBScript block in your client HTML page, and get the JScript to call a function in the VBScript block - give it the two dates and use the DateDiff function, e.g.
<script language='VBScript'>
<!--
Function GetDays(dtStart, dtEnd)
GetDays = DateDiff("d", dtStart, dtEnd)
End Function
</script>
<script language='JScript'>
<!--
function onClick()
{
var dtStart = new Date("2004/06/08");
var dtEnd = new Date("2004/07/09");
var nDays = GetDays(dtStart.getVarDate(), dtEnd.getVarDate());
alert(nDays);
}
</script>
Then you can treat each day as n x 8hrs or whatever is needed.
Hope this helps,
Andy

Thank you Andy....
I feel like an idiot atm, because we already have a VBscript for doing this, and I was trying to emulate it in javascript. We're using a SQL server to house a monstorus database, and this code I had typed in earlier is actually in a VB/ASP page.
I'll see if I can't modify the vbscript with the right tags and get it to work in the form.
Thanks for the input!

How about:
MillisecondsPerDay = 86400000;
function GetDays(startDate, endDate)
{
return Math.floor(
(endDate.valueOf() - startDate.valueOf())
/ MillisecondsPerDay);
}
