help - how to get my site running with dicountasp.net???? -

ok - thanks all you guys for your continued support.
I got the little thing kind-of working (some minor things don't work yet).


thanks for your tips.


Here another-one that might be helpfull to newbies like me: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.configuration.connectionstringsettingscollection.aspx
Describes the logic behind the connection strings... - had to define all three (local machine; SQL2005 access and the re-defined string in order for it to work.
then again a db-attach with your sql-attach-beta -tool, then again your KB from above to get the User-rights (as I didn't use the 2nd .mdf-file).


http://aplusch0000.web135.discountasp.net/Default.aspxright now for those of you who helped - to have a look at what you helped me with.


two more 'minor things' - maybe you have a clue here as well: - on the resume-page - the download-resume button doesn't seem to work. - any ideas?
and if you hit register, the form that comes up seems to be generated serverside - suddenly has german descriptions. - anyone an idea where to change
this back to english?


Thanks

ok- got the german english bit sorted out as well (on your server english versions - so no mix-up).


so all that's missing out now is the "download resume" function, which is supposed to download the
description in word-format..


for those who want to play at access - don't controll the access-rights yet, so if you want to log-in
try: loginname: guest; password: guest**


thanks again for your help.

ok - YEPPP ! - my first application is up and running


Thank you all for your valuable tips!!

I have IE6. when accessing the image directly it loaded completely, but in the html page it didn't load fully. I believe it might be an html issue with that page.


some images loaded, some didn't. here's one that didnt... http://www.a-plus.ch/Details.aspx?AlbumID=1&Page=0





Castle have internet access?

ok


ran HTML-Valdiator in Debug for a number of browsers (unfortunately don't have the IE7.0-option
available yet, and don't want to download Beta on this my present best machine.. - and don't have
Server2003 installed either for the respective additional MS-Tool).


Seems (after correcting the above error) only downwards-issues with older versions, that didn't
know elements like 'class' 'styles' and so. - I don't think this is what you guys related to - but in
case you have an idea how to find a workaround to correct for these older versions without tempering
the newer versions I might just try.

here the error-messages on the 'old' Browser-Debug:
in Netscape Navigator 4.0:
Albums.aspx
Error: Validation (Netscape 4): Attribute 'style' is not a valid attribute of element 'img'.


<td colspan="3" rowspan="3"><a href='Photos.aspx?AlbumID=<%# Eval("AlbumID") %>' ><img src="Handler.ashx?AlbumID=<%# Eval("AlbumID") %>&amp;Size=M" class="photo_198" style="border:4px solid white" alt='Sample Photo from Album Number <%# Eval("AlbumID") %>' /></a></td>


HTML 4.01 / IE 6.0 no errors
XHTML 1.0 Transitional (Netscape 7/Opera 7/IE6) no errors
XHTML 1.0 Frameset - no errors
XHTML 1.1 - no errors


in IE 3.02 / Netscape 3.0 several errors:
Attribute 'class' not valid attribute
of element 'div'
of element 'table'
of element 'td'
of element 'img'
Attribute 'style' not valid attribute of element 'img'

Thanks a lotfor the hint. - Unfortunately, with me it loaded correctly. - So will need to find
out what I can do about the html not loading... and how to test that.


In answer to your question: - No- at present, the castle doesn't have internet-access or
even a phone-line, and there is only one spot outside where sometimes youhavereception
for your mobile phone.I guess you would just need to get France Telecom to get a direct
line in. (The present owners of the castle didn't do that on purpose, as they used the place
as a retreat - so they were happy to have an excuse not to be reachable, as their employers
kept bombing them daily dayand nightwith mails, issuesand calls no mather where else they
were on holiday on this planet.

mjp - thanks for your pleasant comment. - I like that! - Feels good after all the frustration.. hihi


Unfortunately, I don't have IE7 on either of my machines. - So that will be another one to think about
how to get around that issue. - I only have IE6 in place. - But glad that it worked with Firefox and the
others as well.


Andy99

 

ok


Debugger found one mistake in albums.aspx that influenced a switch of the views.
Corrected that. - Do you still get the same errors? (On my machine I unfortunately
don't see a difference, as it worked all right before).

Wow, selling a castle?! I guess it was worth all the effort to get it going. Now I want to buy a castle.

One thing I noticed, in IE7 the images would not load fully. In Firefox and Flock they load fine. I don't have IE6 on this machine, so I can't say whether that's an IE7 specific issue or not.
