I've been doing tests, and it turns out that my Post does not redirect when not in Internet Explorer. I need to post, because the payment gateway only receives the post and not querystring. Help!

Problem solved.

I did not manage with HttpWebRequest, reason being I actually wanted to navigate to the page I was posting to. Maybe I just didn't know what I was doing! LOL

Haven't tried WebClient, only got this reply after I solved my problem.

Found a work-around though:

private void submitForm()
    {
        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("<form name='newForm' target='_parent' method=post

              action='https:// targetUrl'>");

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p1\" value=\"{0}\">", p1TerminalID));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p2\" value=\"{0}\">", p2Reference));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p3\" value=\"{0}\">", p3Description));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p4\" value=\"{0}\">",

               p4TransactionAmount));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p5\" value=\"{0}\">", p5Currency));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"p11\" value=\"{0}\">",

              p11ReceiptEmail));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"Budget\" value=\"{0}\">",

              isBudgetAllowed));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(string.Format("<input type=hidden name=\"m_1\" value=\"{0}\">", m1BookID));

        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("</form>");
        System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("</body>");

        Response.Write("<SCRIPT LANGUAGE='JavaScript'>document.forms[0].submit();</SCRIPT>");

}

Thanks for help though!

I've got a booking that needs to send data to a payment gateway. I do not want to use query string, seeing as this is not a secure method of sending data. Currently I have a 2nd form with hidden fields and a submit button that sends the data via the form's POST action. Problem is this:

I first need to execute a whole bunch of code before this form can be submitted. The ideal would be to be able to post all the data via code behind, alternatively to invoke the form submit through code behind. How do I do this?

if the server is remote and or if you need to auth before send then use this:

 

SendEmail SM = new SendEmail();

SM.ServerName = "smtp.domain.com";
         SM.Credential = new NetworkCredential(sendinguser@domain.com, "SecretPassword");

replace server name and other values as needed.

Thanks for the advice! Worked great!!!!

Hey,

I need to send info from a contact page to both administrator and also the client (if send copy checkbox is checked). It is an aspx page, and my code keeps bombing. Could someone look for a problem in my code? (also, maybe the problem lies with the server?)

protected void ButtonSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (Page.IsValid)//if captcha is entered correctly, this will be true
            {
                bool error = false;

same thing ....

 

are the other pages in folders under the main page ?

/default.aspx

/one/default.aspx

/two/default.aspx

 

if yes then look at the links to the css and js files and make sure they are valid.

 

for example does the css and js  use ./file.css or does it use /file.css  to link the css or js files?

 

./file would work in the root folder but on in a sub-folder  as "." means current folder

 

stuff like that.

cool, thanks, will do!

Well, let's start off with the fact splash-screens are a big "no-no" in the first place.

 

Anyway, if something renders right in IE and not FF, then chances are you're doing something wrong (since FF implements the current specifications better than IE, in cases where IE renders differently it's usually when it deviates from or breaks with the specification)

 

We'll need to see your code. I hope you're not using tables for layout.

I'm not fond of splash-screen either. The boss wants to preview the site to select clients (although the site isn't done yet), and therefor instructed me to put a splash screen befon the wedsite loads stating the site isn't officially live yet.

Code follows:

I call this js file from my main:

var splashpage=
{
splashenabled: 1,

splashpageurl: "SubPages/SplashPage.aspx",

enablefrequency: 0,

autohidetimer: 4,

launch:false,
browserdetectstr: (window.opera&&window.getSelection) || (!window.opera && window.XMLHttpRequest), //current browser detect string to limit the script to be run in (Opera9 and other "modern" browsers)

output:function()

{
    document.write('<div id="slashpage" style="position: absolute; z-index: 100; color: white; background-color:white">')
    document.write('<iframe name="splashpage-iframe" src="about:blank" style="margin:0; padding:0; width:100%; height: 100%"></iframe>')
    this.splashpageref=document.getElementById("slashpage")
    this.splashiframeref=window.frames["splashpage-iframe"]
    this.splashiframeref.location.replace(this.splashpageurl)
    this.standardbody=(document.compatMode=="CSS1Compat")? document.documentElement : document.body
    if (!/safari/i.test(navigator.userAgent))
    this.standardbody.style.overflow="hidden"
    this.splashpageref.style.left=0
    this.splashpageref.style.top=0
    this.splashpageref.style.width="100%"
    this.splashpageref.style.height="100%"
    this.moveuptimer=setInterval("window.scrollTo(0,0)", 50)
},

closeit:function()
{
    clearInterval(this.moveuptimer)
    this.splashpageref.style.display="none"
    this.splashiframeref.location.replace("about:blank")
    this.standardbody.style.overflow="auto"
},

init:function()
{
    if (this.enablefrequency==1){ //if frequency control turned on
        if (/sessiononly/i.test(this.displayfrequency)){ //if session only control
            if (this.getCookie(this.cookiename[0]+"_s")==null){ //if session cookie is empty
                this.setCookie(this.cookiename[0]+"_s", "loaded")
                this.launch=true
            }
        }
        else if (/day/i.test(this.displayfrequency)){ //if persistence control in days
            if (this.getCookie(this.cookiename[0])==null || parseInt(this.getCookie(this.cookiename[0]))!=parseInt(this.displayfrequency)){ //if persistent cookie is empty or admin has changed number of days to persist from that of the stored value (meaning, reset it)
                this.setCookie(this.cookiename[0], parseInt(this.displayfrequency), parseInt(this.displayfrequency))
                this.launch=true
            }
        }
    }
    else //else if enablefrequency is off
        this.launch=true
    if (this.launch){
        this.output()
        if (parseInt(this.autohidetimer)>0)
            setTimeout("splashpage.closeit()", parseInt(this.autohidetimer)*1000)
    }
},

getCookie:function(Name){
    var re=new RegExp(Name+"=[^;]+", "i"); //construct RE to search for target name/value pair
    if (document.cookie.match(re)) //if cookie found
        return document.cookie.match(re)[0].split("=")[1] //return its value
    return null
},

setCookie:function(name, value, days){
    var expireDate = new Date()
    //set "expstring" to either an explicit date (past or future)
    if (typeof days!="undefined"){ //if set persistent cookie
        var expstring=expireDate.setDate(expireDate.getDate()+parseInt(days))
        document.cookie = name+"="+value+"; expires="+expireDate.toGMTString()+"; "+splashpage.cookiename[1] //last portion sets cookie path
    }
else //else if this is a session only cookie setting
    document.cookie = name+"="+value+"; "+splashpage.cookiename[1] //last portion sets cookie path
}

}

if (splashpage.browserdetectstr && splashpage.splashenabled==1)
    splashpage.init()

The splash-page (SubPages/SplashPage.aspx), is just a simple form with a label stating the site is in test phase and not live and a countdown timer. (redirecting in...) (the timer just counts down, it doesn't redirect, because it's already done in this js file.

Thanks for the help! It is very much appreciated!

Hey,

 

thanks, I'll check into it and let you know if I resolved the issue.

Wierd thing is that it works fine on all browsers in the home page. It's when i go to the subpages that it gets renered as blank white.

I thought it could be a sintax issue when you render the url to the subpages (which is in their own folder), but I've tried different ways to call it and still get the same bug.

I've got a splash screen that displays before the default page is loaded for my website.

It displays perfectly in IE, but not in firefox. How do you add a splash screen in firefox?

(let me know if you need to see the code)
