11. Lesson 2: Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

12.  Exercise 2.1 – Construct a very simple and classic aspx page that will display “Hello World” in an internet browser.  ASP.NET provides syntax compatibility with existing ASP page. This includes support for code render blocks that can be intermixed with HTML content within an aspx file. Company Logo Lesson 2 – Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

13. 1. Add code in body tag. 2. Right click in the page area and select “View in Browser”. Lesson 2 – Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

14. 3. The result will be displayed in the web browser. Lesson 2 – Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

15.  Exercise 2.2 – Build web site or project  Before you can run a web site or application, you must build the project - which means that you must compile all source files of the project into binary executable. 1. Click the menu option Build -> Build Solution. 2. Task list will show error list, warnings or messages for all files in the solution. Lesson 2 – Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

16. 3. Click the menu option Debug -> Start Debugging to run the created web site. Lesson 2 – Exploring Your First ASP.NET Web Page

17. Lesson 3: Building a Simple Web Application with Controls Company Logo

18.  Exercise 3.1 – Add controls to the web page 1. Drag Textbox control, Button control, and Label control from Toolbox and drop it to the aspx page. 2. The source code for each control will then be generated. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

19. 3. The result in design view after adding controls is shown below. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

20. Tips  ASP.NET will set default values for page attributes  All server controls must appear within a tag, and the tag must contain the runat="server" attribute. The runat="server" attribute indicates that the form should be processed on the server. It also indicates that the enclosed controls can be accessed by server scripts Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

21.  All ASP.NET controls require runat="server" attribute. If you don't have them, the web server will not parse the tags properly. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

22.  Exercise 3.2 – Add simple C# code and event handler to the page in code-behind part Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

23. 1. Enter the following code in “Page_Load” method. protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!IsPostBack){ Response.Write("Enter your name in TextBox"); } Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

24.  Page_Load - The Page_Load event is triggered when a page loads, and ASP.NET will automatically call the method “ Page_Load ”, and execute the code inside it.  IsPostBack - If you want to execute the code in the Page_Load method only the first time the page is loaded, you can use the IsPostBack property. If the IsPostBack property is false, the page is loaded for the first time, if it is true, the page is posted back to the server. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

25. 2. Set properties value by clicking on the Button control in design view, then view properties box 3. Click Setting Event Function, then enter method name as “displayText” in Click property. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

26.  = Setting Event Function or Method control component  = look up setting properties of control component  = Sorting Event or properties Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

27. 4. Enter the following code in “displayText” method. protected void displayText(object sender, EventArgs e) { Response.Write("Enter your name in TextBox"); Label1.Text = "Hello," + TextBox1.Text; } Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

28. 5. Save file, build the web site, and start debugging, then test the result in browser. 6. Enter your name in textbox then click button. Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

29. Tips  Method that does not return values protected void displayText(object sender, EventArgs e) { Response.Write("Enter your name in TextBox"); Label1.Text = "Hello," + TextBox1.Text; }  Method that will return values protected int calc(int a, int b) { return a+b; } Lesson 3 – Building A Simple Web Application With Controls

30. Lesson 4 Adding More Complex Event Handlers

31.  Exercise 4.1 – Set control event for DropDownList Control 1. Add new Label control and DropDownList control to the page. Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

32. 2. In design view, set DropDownList attribute by clicking DropDownList and select required icon tasks. 3. Click Edit Items.. Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

33.  Choose Data Source - connect to an existing data source or create a new one  Edit Items - edit the list items in your Control  Enable AutoPostBack - forces the control to post back each time an item is selected  Add Extender - Add Ajax control Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

34.  Members – the ListItem collection in DropDownList  Selected – the default selected item that will be shown at the first time the page is loaded  Text – the label text for DropDownList  Value – the value for item in DropDownList that displays nothing Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

35.  Exercise 4.2 – Add Items in DropDownList (try it yourself) 1. Add the following items in DropDownList Item 1.Selected=True Text=Select Item ICT Program Value=0 Item 2.Text=CS Program Value=1 Item 3.Text=DB Program Value=2 Item 4.Text=MM Program Value=3 Item 5.Text=EB Program Value=4 Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

36. 2. Set Attribute Enable AutoPostBack change =  3. Save file, build the web site, and start debugging, then test the result in browser. Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

37.  Exercise 4.3 – Enter code for DropDownList Selected Index Changed Event(try it yourself) 1. Set Event Method Name for DropdownList Selected Index Changed Event to “viewICTProgramSelected ”. 2. Enter code for DropdownList to display selected text from DropDownList and display your name from textbox. 3. Save file, build the web site, and start debugging, then test the result in browser. Lesson 4 – Adding More Complex Event Handlers

38. Lesson 5: Adding Page Navigation with Parameter Passing

39. Page navigation is the control for navigating to another page together with passing the custom query string parameters.  Exercise 5.1 – Add Hyperlink control to the page 1. Drag Hyperlink control from toolbox and drop to the page. 2. In Properties pane, set NavigateUrl value to "~/Default2.aspx", which is the target page. Lesson 5 – Adding Page Navigation with Parameter Passing

41. 3. ASP.NET code for Hyperlink is generated as below.  NavigateUrl – the value is the path of target page with query string  “?” in query string - the query string parameters which will be passed to “Default2.aspx” page.  “Default2.aspx ” – the target page that will get the values from parameter passing.  string yourName = Request.QueryString.Get("yourName");  string program = Request.QueryString.Get("program"); Lesson 5 – Adding Page Navigation with Parameter Passing

42.  Exercise 5.2 - Use Response.Redirect method in the page  ASP.NET page can redirect the page by calling the Response.Redirect(url) method.  This is typically done when server-side validation is required on some client input before the navigation actually takes place.  The following sample demonstrates how to use the Response.Redirect method to pass parameters to another target page Page.Response.Redirect("Default2.aspx?yourName=enterNa me&program=ICTProgram"); Lesson 5 – Adding Page Navigation with Parameter Passing

43. Passing parameter in ASP.NET  Passing query string parameters o Page redirect Targetpage.aspx?parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2 o Page get value string parameter1= Request.QueryString.Get("parameter1");  Session parameter o Page redirect Session(“parameterName”)=value; o Page get value string parameterName=Session(“parameterName”).toString();  Post and get parameter o This is similar to asp code. Lesson 5 – Adding Page Navigation with Parameter Passing

44. Lesson 6: Data Binding in ASP.NET

45.  Data binding in ASP.NET is the process of binding data on the server to a server-side control that will then render that data in some form to the client.  The only constraints for data binding are that the server-side control must support a property called DataSource and a method called DataBind(), and that the data source to which the control is bound implement the ArrayList and Hashtable Object interface.  Using namespaces system.Collections Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

46.  Exercise 6.1 – Create collection of items containing a single data value (display text only) 1. Create a DropDownList control in an aspx page. 2. Add the following code in code-behind part to import namespaces for working with collection. using System; using System.Collections; Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

47. 3. Add code in Page_Load() Method. ArrayList list = new ArrayList(); list.Add("Select Skill for programming"); list.Add("Excellent"); list.Add("Very Good"); list.Add("Good"); list.Add("Very Poor"); DropDownList_Skill.DataSource = list; DropDownList_Skill.DataBind(); Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

48. 4. Save file, build the web site, and start debugging, then test the result in browser. Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

49.  Exercise 6.2 – Create collection of items containing text with indexing value 1. Create a DropDownList control in an aspx page. 2. Add the following code in code-behind part to import namespaces for working with collection. using System; using System.Collections; Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

50. 3. Add code in Page_Load() Method. Hashtable list = new Hashtable(); list.Add("0","Select Skill for programming"); list.Add("1","Excellent"); list.Add("2","Very Good"); list.Add("3","Good"); list.Add("4","pool"); DropDownList_SetIndex.DataSource = list; DropDownList_SetIndex.DataBind(); Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

51. 4. Save file, build the web site, and start debugging, then test the result in browser. Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

52. 4. The code below is for getting the value and text from DropDownList. string valueSelected = DropDownList_SetIndex.SelectedValue.ToString(); string textDisplaySelected = DropDownList_SetIndex.SelectedItem.Text; Lesson 6 – Data Binding in ASP.NET

53. Lesson 7: ASP.NET DataSet

54.  Exercise 7.1 – Create ASP.NET dataSet 1. Import namespaces to work with DataSet in code-behind. using System; using System.Data; using System.Collections; Lesson 7 – ASP.NET DataSet

55. 2. Create XML File or add Existing Item by right clicking at the web site root in solution explorer and select Add New Item or Add Existing Item. Lesson 7 – ASP.NET DataSet
