ATLAS continued : Get the freetextbox going.</h1> <article> <h1>ATLAS continued : Get the freetextbox going.</h1> <p>Ivan Porto Carrero — Tue, 23 May 2006 14:02:00 GMT</p> <P>I decided after working a bit more with <a title="The asp.net 2.0 atlas framework" href="http://atlas.asp.net" >The asp.net 2.0 atlas framework</a> that the client-side needs a LOT more documentation. Some cooperation with other javascript libraries would also be nice. <BR>A properly working dataservice is lacking.</P> <P>I've turned back to the server side controls. The start of this whole mission was to keep the freetextbox control on a page and still don't have full postbacks. Upload pictures with progressbar was going to be a plus. </P> <P>How to upload files from within an update panel is something that I will come back to in the future but it isn't going to be pretty.</P> <P>The things I'm about to write I will wrap in a control later (when I have time) for people to download</P> <P>Anyways you wrap your freetextbox in an Iframe and it works. Don't add a scriptmanager to your iframe page.</P> <P>Put a hiddenfield on your main page and in the ClientSideTextChanged event of the freetextbox control you update the hiddenfield on the parent. If you wrap it inside a control then I suggest you add a property to the control that holds the Text variable :)</P> <P>That's about it, easy isn't it.</P><p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=6cda6ad746d942b9a1110d0715a4fa12&u=79253"></a></p> <script language='javascript1.1' src="http://ads.geekswithblogs.net/a.aspx?ZoneID=5&Task=Get&Browser=NETSCAPE4&NoCache=True&PageID=31016&SiteID=1"></script> <noscript><a href="http://ads.geekswithblogs.net/a.aspx?ZoneID=5&Task=Click&Mode=HTML&SiteID=1&PageID=31016" target="_blank"> </a> </noscript> </iframe> </article> </main></body></html>
