Jeff and .NET

"Page.ClientScript" does not compile in the assembly

Man, that namespaces thing is a real gotcha.

Is it any surprise? This is .net hud we're talking about here...

I've been playing around with this myself and got stung with a namespace issue.

Here's what I learned

I put the resources into a Resource subfolder in my Custom Control project. My resources are in subfolders of this Resource subfolder.

I then added the resources to a new Resource file using the resource editor (I thought this was required, not sure of the benefits of this besides the ability to use a Resource manager class or something to access the contents, please let me know if it's required in this case).

Even though the resources are in the Resource file, .resx you still need the full path to the resource.

e.g.

My resources are in

<project>/Resources/javascript/script1.js

<project>/Resources/javascript/components/script2.js

You must use the full path to reference

AssemblyInfo.cs

[assembly: WebResource("WebControlLibrary.Resources.javascript.script1.js", "text/javascript", PerformSubstitution = true)]

[assembly: WebResource("WebControlLibrary.Resources.javascript.components.script2.js", "text/javascript", PerformSubstitution = true)]

and in the Custom Control access using

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this.GetType(), "applicationscript", Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(this.GetType(), "WebControlLibrary.Resources.javascript.script1.js"));

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude(this.GetType(), "applicationscript", Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(this.GetType(), "WebControlLibrary.Resources.javascript.components.script2.js"));

Can anyone tell me why hitting F5 causes a web resource to be downloaded ? Here are some of the things I have observed using fiddler.

I have a page with a few compiled js resources being gotten through WebResource.axd. I also included some non compiled js resources and images (just straight img and script tags). If these items have been cached opening a new browser and requesting the page causes them to be retrieved from the browser cache, but if I hit F5 only the noncompiled resources are retrieved from browser cache. The WebResorces are gotten again. This doesn't make sense to me. CTRL+F5 should cause cache overwrite not F5.

Remember that sometimes the IIS or Casini webserver needs to be restarted in order for this to work.

EmbeddedResourcePathProvider - Binary-Only ASP.NET 2.0

When using embedded resources with images

and u get the following error

Illegal Character

Line : 1

Code : 0

it means that u

u have Registered a script Resource

ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptResource

Just use

ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl

Another good article on the subject.  

They don't use typeof, but i guess this is the same thing:

ClientScriptManager cs = Page.ClientScript;

Type rsType = this.GetType();

this worked great!  Saved me a ton of time I was ready to give up on using embeded resources.

HI, Question, I have a table control for rendering round corners, square corners and combination's of the two like the rounded corner panel, except with quality corners, thing is I want it to be a dll, or something like it that I can lug round into other projects, problem is that I will need to store the CSS, (Makes the control much lighter), and the images referenced by the CSS in the web resource, I haven't used them before so not really sure how that works?

@Natewon - Just because you used a "?" it does not mean that your run on sentence was a question.

Hi:

I have a great doubt about on how do I to show an image contained in an external dll?

I've just created a external dll (resources.dll) that contains 16000 images as resources. I've included this in my current web project by copying it the bin folder.

By running this:

Assembly dll = Assembly.LoadWithPartialName("resources");

string [] resources = dll.GetManifestResourceNames();

dgPages.DataSource = resources;

dgPages.DataBind();

I got a table listing my images names. So far so good!

But, how do I to show one of these in a img tag?

<asp:Image ID="imgTest" runat="Server" />

something like this doesn't work:

imgTest.ImageUrl = resources[1];

Any help well be so appreciated!

Regards

Is there any way that you can possible take for example a video from youtube, take the embed code from the top right and use that in a project?

Ok so i've read 10 posts on this subject, including this one and the on mentioned here from Microsoft, which btw is very good.

BUT... (always a but isnt there?)

I have a web server control which I want to use in my toolkit. The control needs js and css. I want to have a drag and drop tool so the css file and teh js file need to be INSIDE the dll.

I want 1 dll and no externally hosted files.

I actually would like my dll to generate a css and a js file when i drag the tool on my aspx.

No inpage or inline script or css, just a neat link to the js and script in my head tag.

Does something like that even exist or is possible?

Thank you so much for this post. I was planning on having to spend half a day on this embedded resource nonsense, but instead it took me 15 minutes!

No more comments i am fed up now.

Saved me so much time.  Thanks for the post!

function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {

   if (!theForm.onsubmit || (theForm.onsubmit() != false)) {

       theForm.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget;

       theForm.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;

       theForm.submit();

   }

}
