The signer of a message has a pair of cryptographic keys: a public key, which everyone in the world knows, and a private key, which is kept secret by the signer. read more...

Asp.net UpdatePanel/UpdateProgress Controls and Overlays (Wait Message(blog.davidyardy.com)

submitted by dyardy(199) 2 years, 9 months ago

While a partial page postback is occurring disable all form fields and give the user a pleasant please wait message that can be used consistently across your application(s). We need to create an overlay that works in conjunction with the updatepanel as well as direct from JavaScript. Problem: Design the update progress html and css so that the entire page is overlaid with gray background. This works pretty good until scrolling on the page is involved. When the page is tall enough that the browser scrolls the overlay must by sized dynamically with each post. If you fail to do this, you will end up with odd visual with the overlay only covering a portion of the page. read more...
