Hey Jan,

Top work on the SmartPart I've found it really handy in some of our more complex MOSS builds to date.

Do you have any advice on the best way to migrate from the 1.2 beta to 1.3 if a site is already using the SmartPart?

Aaron, the new version should be compatible with the old one. You can remove the old one and install the new one. BUT you have to add all smartpart instances again to the pages (and configure them). If you don't want to do that, you can use assembly redirection in the web.config.

Why when I change the default MasterPage of my website , the smartpart ajax end to work ?

Pingback from  SharePoint Link Love: 02-17-2008, Part deux at  Virtual Generations

Hi Jan,

very simple, when I change the masterpage in site settings > masterpage, the ajax controls end to work, this seem to don't call the server.

@Guiseppe. Usually when AJAX controls don't work it is because of a missing ScriptManager control. This control manages some essential ASP.Net AJAX stuff and if it isn't present your AJAX controls won't work. Maybe your master page doesn't have a reference to the ScriptManager?

I am running a C# user control as a Smartpart on a Sharepoint page. When I export to Excel using the conventional method of an ASP.NET response of an htmlwriter stream using content type application/ms-excel and ending with the ususal Response.End, I get out the Excel window correctly.

However, once I have closed the Excel window, the user control gui has frozen and will not respond to further button clicks. My only recourse is to refresh the page to awaken it. Of course, this problem does NOT occur when the user control is run within a conventional ASP.NET web app.

Does anyone have comments/suggestions on this problem? Solutions? Feel free to reply to my e-mail address.

@Leon. Do you mean we have to add script manager to the master page ? why if in the default master page of sharepoint 2007 there is not script manager ? the instance of the scriptmanager is alrteady inside the webusercontrol.

Does this work only in MOOS 2007 environment or also in a machine that has only WSS 3.0 intalled?

Thanks

Great web part Jan - makes life much easier.  however I have run in to a couple of issues whcih I would appreciate some help with.

1. Validation controls in the web user control stop the page from saving when in edit mode.  I guess this is because of the javascript generated by the validation controls but how to work around it?  If it was a plain .aspx page an edit mode panel would do the trick but I can't figure out how to use this with the SmartPart.

2. I can't load the web part in SharePoint designer - error rendering control.  Absolutly fine adding to a publishing page web part zone.

Any thoughts?

Many thanks,

Lucy

Hi,

Thanks for this control. I'm still using Sharepoint 2003. Is your webpart compatible with this version? Is your installer wizard too?

Thanks in advance

Hi Jan,

I'm having problems with enabling Smartpart with ajax in my sharepoint site, I've followed your instructions in configuring web.config to enable Smartpart with Ajax but when I tried to add a the  smartpart with ajax I get the following error.

Smartpart with Ajax: A Web Part or Web Form control on this page could not be displayed or imported. The type is not registered as safe.

Thanks

When using the smartpart with a Control using ADO it states the control cannot use windows integreted authentication to the SQL Server.  Is there a way to correct this so that the users credentials are used to access the DataBase?  This is for reading data only no edits or writes are performed.  Please resond here and e-mail me at bambamyum@yahoo.com

Return of SmartPart 1.3

Hi

I've a requirement to develop an application (normal ASP.Net) with workflow ( I'm thinking of creating Tasks) which the user wants to access from sharepoint.

I'm wondering if I do develop using SharePoint, SmartPart, and web pages as user control what will be the pitfalls of taking this route.

Appreciate any comments

Thanks

When I add an User Control as a web part, the "Welcome <name>" from the top right corner in SharePoint page is jumping out of page and goes to the top left corner... somebody said that it's related to an AJAX control on that page and I do have some AJAX controls there.  Could anybody answer to my problem?

Thanks,

Mike

Jan,

Really appreciate the work you're doing. I'm new to SharePoint dev, installed SmartPart 1.3, your demo controls work fine.  Built a simple ascx in vb, copied the ascx to UserControls. When I attempt to load it into SmartPart, get:

Error: unable to load ~\/UserControls\daTest1.ascx

Details: Could not load type 'WebApplication2.daTest1'.

Any suggestions?

thanks,  

da

altfeder

Details: Could not load type 'WebApplication2.daTest1'.

you can fix this error by chenging the codebehind= in the ascx control to codefile=

this worked for me
