The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Form properties not changing when page is a post back

Asked by capsoftuk in .Net Editors & IDEs, .NET, Programming for ASP.NET

Tags: ,

I am trying to change a target of a form on a page on post back.  The target of the form are 2 iframes.  I want to fill the first iframe in the first postback and then fill the second iframe on the next postback leaving me with 2 different iframes.  This switch is done by using a text field which corresponds to the code's stateString.

I am having trouble with it as the settings for the form does not seem to reflect what I have written in the code.  As you can see it is a pretty simple piece of code that sets the target of the form which is named "form1".  The stateString is part of the form which is posted back.  When I stepped through the code, it enters the if statements correctly and sets the target correctly.  But when the page is loaded the target is not changed and is still the default setting.

Is there something missing from my code?  Is the code in the right place? (i.e. Page_PreRender...but I have also tried the code inside page_load)  I am starting to think it has something to do with the viewstate.  

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Start Free Trial

                }
                else if (stateString == "form2")
                {
                    form1.Target = "iframeTwo";
                }
