Why The Toolkit DLL is much bigger than download

I download the Version 1.0.10301.0 Ajax Control Toolkit. Both of With Source code and without .I found a question.The ajax control toolkit dll file which is in the without source code package is 764KB(in "\SampleWebSite\Bin" ),but the dll file I generated from the source code is near 1.3MB. Why?

if you compiled in Debug mode, then your assembly would be larger than if you had compiled in Release mode.

oh~~~~~~~~ Right! Thanks for your help answer!

Wilcos ProgressBar Demo

I've been looking overWilco's ProgressBar demo and fixed it up to work with the current version of ATLAS. It's running and I can call methods on the control doing the updating of the progress info, but I can't get the timer to fire on it.

Looking over the code I can't find anything wrong with - the interval is set and assigned to the timer, but the timer simply isn't firing - I see nothing with Fiddler and the internal onTimerTick event is never actually hit.

I have been testing the control with a little bit of JavaScript code to fire the timer and that works fine, but I can't seem to get the internal timer to fire and ping back to the Web Service. Anybody have any idea, why the timer isn't firing in the below code?

I'm hooking things up through code rather than using XmlScript for now.

Duh...

The code is missing a call to Initialize() to start the timer and other initialization going. It seems kinda silly that Initialize() isn't called automatically when in construct the object.

The progress stuff works, but I can't get the Web Service stuff to work - the ServiceMethodRequest object has changed and no longer supports calling the Web Service with simple parameters.

If anybody has any idea on that that'd be great.

The docs still suck - without knowing what parameters mean they're not terribly useful.

The way you invoke service methods has changed a little. The new signature looks like this:

invoke = function(url, methodName, params, onMethodComplete, onMethodTimeout, onMethodError, onMethodAborted, userContext, timeoutInterval, priority, useGetMethod)

Therefore, you should try to change

'Sys.Net.ServiceMethodRequest.callMethod(_serviceURL, _serviceMethod, null, _onMethodComplete, null, null, [this]);'

into

'Sys.Net.ServiceMethod.invoke(_serviceURL, _serviceMethod, null, _onMethodComplete, null, null, null, [this]);'

Hey! This is just what I need, but how do I set the whole thing ablaze? I've created an upload page, which works fine. And I have a webservice which, based on the client IP, returns the current status of the process.

I've put the javascript progressbar directly in the aspx file, a div (class="progressBar") within a div (class="progressBarContainer") and the stylesheet classes from Wilcob's example. Furthermore I've set the serviceUrl to my webservice, and the servicemethod to my servicemethod.

When I run the page, the process runs thrugh just fine and uploads files, but I get an error on the page (in IE) refering to this line (marked with:*):

this

.set_progress =function(value)

{

*if (value >= 100)

{

_timer.set_enabled(

false);

}

_progress = value;

this.element.style.width = value.toString() +"%";if (_showPercentage && value > 5)this.element.innerHTML = value +"% ";

}

I've put the Initialize() in there like this:

Sys.UI.ProgressBar =

function(associatedElement)

{

Sys.UI.ProgressBar.initializeBase(

this, [associatedElement]);this.element = associatedElement;var _timer =new Sys.Timer();var _progress = 0;var _showPercentage =true;var _serviceURL;var _serviceMethod;var _responsePending;var _tickHandler;

_timer.Initialize()

And I've changed the Sys.Net.ServiceMethodRequest.callMethod as WilcoB mentioned above.

Any idea? Please help..

Win CE Support

Hi,

I'm developing a site for Win CE, which uses a version of IE6. I'm wanting to do partial page updates, but this functionality does not appear to be working. I'm using MS Ajax RC 1.0. I'm using a update panel coupled with a timer control which updates a grid at a regular time interval. This works fine on my development machine and other systems on IE6 & IE7, but in Win CE i get a full page update. There are no errors, but the partial update functionality is not working as it should. Any insight?

Thanks,

Josh

PocketPC and Smartphone devices 2003 and later, support AJAX. Read more about it here - http://blogs.msdn.com/iemobile/archive/2005/11/15/493200.aspx

Hi - thanks for the information. Looks intriguing. I take it that the MS AJAX controls are not supported?

Thanks again,

Josh

XLST and control toolkit

I have been learning about using an XML file and an XLST file to create a user editable form however I have yet to find a successful working version of this including a toolkit procedure

Can it be done? If so has anyone actually done it and showed how? If not why not?

A not correctly formatted example of what I want to do:

<XML File>

<Input Name="NumbersOnly" FilteredTextBox="Yes" Type="NumbersWithNeg"/>

</XML>

gets me the output of this:

<

asp:TextBoxID="TextBox3"runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

<

ajaxToolkit:FilteredTextBoxExtenderID="ftbe"runat="server"TargetControlID="TextBox3"FilterType="Custom, Numbers"ValidChars="-"/>

It can be done. Heres how

<Code on main page>

private

void CreateSurvey() {// Load the data sourceXPathDocument surveyDoc =newXPathDocument(Server.MapPath("ExSurvey.xml"));// Load the xslt to do the transformationsXslTransform transform =newXslTransform();

transform.Load(Server.MapPath(

"MakeControls.xslt"));// Get the transformed resultStringWriter sw =newStringWriter();

transform.Transform(surveyDoc,

null, sw);string result = sw.ToString();// remove the namespace attribute

result = result.Replace(

"xmlns:asp=\"remove\"","");

result = result.Replace(

"xmlns:cc1=\"remove\"","");

result =

"<%@. Register Assembly=\"AjaxControlToolkit\" Namespace=\"AjaxControlToolkit\" TagPrefix=\"cc1\" %>" + result;int i;// parse the control(s) and add it to the pageControl ctrl = Page.ParseControl(result);

survey.Controls.Add(ctrl);

}
