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.

Thank you!

Asynchronous client script callbacks for iFrames

Tags: iframe, load, asynchronous
I'm have an existing ASP.NET application.
In this application i have a web page that contains an iFrame.
This iFrame displays a url link (one of many) that is stored in a text file.  i.e. the text file contains a list of many url's
for example
http://screen1.aspx
http://screen2.aspx
http://screen3.aspx
http://screen4.aspx

and on page load using StreamReader class of the .NET framework I loop through each line item of the text file. read the url and store it in a session variable. and pass the first value in the session which in this case is http://screen1.aspx to the iFrame as url to load it for the first time. Next I'm making use of a javascript postback function to reload the page and this time i'm passing the next url to the iFrame so that it now displays this url. i.e http://screen2.aspx

This works fine so far.. however i have some challenges to overcome.. namely..

1. The url to load i.e. for example:- http://screen2.aspx may takes a long time to load..
2. the url mentioned in the text file i.e. for example:- http://screen3.aspx  may not exist.
3. there may be an error in the page while loading the page. i.e. for example:- http://screen4.aspx  

So i have to come up with a different approach to do this.. this is where it gets tricky..

I need to use client callback script (i think) to do a background processing that will asynchronous load the next url i.e. http://screen2.aspx to load in a second iFrame in the background and then display it when the time comes to do so i.e. on javascript postback function without encountering problem 2 and 3 mentioned above. and if it encounters problem 2 and 3 then the background iFrame must asynchronously load the next url in line from the text file. i.e. http://screen3.aspx and so on and so forth.. So that the page displays new screens in the iFrame almost asynchronously without a need of a postback

How can i do this ???

Please help me.. any help in this direction will be greatly appreciated..

1. Use AJAX in combination with: http://www.codeproject.com/Ajax/ModalUpdateProgress.asp
2. You can check if the file exists with File.Exist(Application.PhysicalApplicationPath+"\"+new Control().ResolveClientUrl("screen3.aspx"));
3. Implement an custom errors page in the web.config

I think that covers all the problems you have :)

Hi,

Thank you for your quick reply..

But i'm not entirely convinced that the example of codeproject is what i'm lookiing for.. because what is does is.. just disables the screen till it can load the next one.. but i dont want that.. what i want is seemless loading of the next page(url) in the iframe..

Please help!!!

That is impossible to achieve, because you have not enough control of all variables included in websites (loading time, etc..)
