Wierd Behavior of __doPostBack
Hello,
I am having some weird behavior between two machines...one
which is running the 1.1 framework and one which is
running 1.0. After opening a child form from a parent...I
update the database then call the __doPostBack function of
the window.opener. This has been working like a charm for
the last several months. Our ISP where we run the .NET app
recently upgraded to 1.1 of the framework. When I run my
app at the ISP...the __doPostBack function in the
window.opener dies with an "Undefined is not an object or
is NULL" message on this line:
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget.split("$").join
(":");
I have enclosed the entire __doPostBack function below.
I DO NOT get this error when running on my development
machine...anyone have any ideas at all...I am at a loss.
When I deploy I am compiling against the 1.0
framework...so can't see how...even if the ISP is running
1.1 as well...that it would matter.
Paul

theform.__EVENTTARGET.value =
eventTarget.split("$").join(":");
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value =
eventArgument;
theform.submit();

RE: Wierd Behavior of __doPostBack
Hello Paul,
The way you are implementing the postback is highly not recommended.
This is accomplished by using two methods:
- RegisterClientScriptBlock
- GetPostBackEventReference
RegisterClientScriptBlock allows ASP.NET server controls to emit
client-side script blocks in the Page.
The client-side script is emitted just after the opening tag of the Page
object's <form runat= server> element.The script block is
emitted as the object that renders the output is defined, so you must
include both tags of the <script> element.
Please refers to the following documentation regarding
RegisterClientScriptBlock
[url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/[/url]
frlrfSystemWebUIPageClassRegisterClientScriptBlock Topic.asp
GetPostBackEventReference obtains a reference to a client-side script
function that causes, when invoked, the server to post back to the page.
Please refers to the following documentation regarding
GetPostBackEventReference
[url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/[/url]
frlrfsystemwebuipageclassgetpostbackeventreference topic.asp
I am including below the sample where the DropDown List Click Client Event
will Post to the server and then a call a server side code.
