How to resolve “AJAXControlToolKit required Ajax 4.0 script.”

Hello friends,

Recently my college got problem in AJAX file upload control which is “AJAXControlToolKit required Ajax4.0 script”

see the error detail in below snap.

 So the reason behind this he is using AJAX script manager not AJAX toolkit script manager. Now you have question when to use script manager and when to use AJAX toolkit script manager so my suggestion is always use AJAX toolkit script manager because it is faster than script manager in many ways and if you try to find difference between AJAX script Manager & AJAX Toolkit script manager then you will find AJAX toolkit script manager is best option for enhancement of your web app performance also.

(If you have not downloaded AJAX toolkit Script Manager then you can download latest  AJAX toolkit and install on your machine)

 So Enjoy weekend.

 Happy Makar sakranti (Indian New Year)

Thanks & Best Regards,

AJAXminifier a tool for website performance enhancement

Dear Friends,
Today I am going to share one more interesting utility provided by Microsoft which is called “Microsoft Ajax Minifier”.
Microsoft Ajax Minifier is a utility which will help you in minimizing the size of your Java script and CSS.
You can download this utility from http://www.asp.net/ajaxLibrary/Download.ashx
You can use this by command prompt.
For example I want to minimize the default.css of my project then I will follow following steps
Step 1: Run  ajaxmin command as shown in below fig

 
Step 2: if command is successful then you will get following screen

In this way after successful execution if you see the size of CSS file it significantly reduced as shown in below fig.

You have seen all the steps and utility now you are thinking why we have to use this and how it will work. So the answer is if your JS & CSS file size is less then it will take less time in load and your website will be faster. The working is as simple as you thought

AJAXMinifier remove all the unwanted white space, curly braces and use short hand in declaration and many more techniques for reducing the size.

I hope this will help you and me also in performance boost.
Keep enjoying Microsoft tools.

Thanks & best regards,
Rajat Jaiswal

How to improve AJAX page Speed with 5 easy steps

Hello friends,

Many times we face the Ajax speed problem. Our AJAX page is very slow.

So here I am with  five valuable tips checkout if it helps you some where. 

1)      EnablePartialRendering:-

 Make enable partial rendering = true in script manager

Its syntax is as shown below

“<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scm” runat=”server”  EnablePartialRendering =”true”   >”

It enable partial rendering so use does n’t have to wait a long for page.

Remember its useful only when you have multiple panel update. 

2)      Script Refrence Profiler dll:-

This is one of the most important DLL by which you can imporve your page performance.

Its simple in use you have to do just drag and drop Script refrence profiler in Div. Then run the page it will give you all refrence Scripts.

As shown below fig.

 

 Just copy this and page in script tag of Script manager as shown below.

<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scm” runat=”server”  EnablePartialRendering =”true”   >

    <Scripts>

<asp:ScriptReference path=”../Includes/Scripts/System.Web.Extensions/1.0.61025.0/MicrosoftAjax.js”/>

</script>

</asp:scriptManager> 

3)      Script Mode=”Release”:- 

Try to make script mode always release for better performance.

You have to do following setting

<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scm” runat=”server”  ScriptMode =”Release”>

 4)      LoadScriptBeforeUI=”false”:-

This should be false for better result. When you do this then screen comes fast.

 5)      Composite Script:-

 If you are using Asp.net 3.5 with service pack 1 then there will be a nice tag which is called Composite script tag.

By the name its clear that it composite all the script its syntax is as follows.

<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scm” runat=”server”  ScriptMode =”Release”>

<CompositeScript ScriptMode =”Release”>

     <Scripts>

        <asp:ScriptReference Name=”MicrosoftAjax.js” ScriptMode=”Auto” Path=”../Includes/Scripts/System.Web.Extensions/1.0.61025.0/MicrosoftAjax.js”>

        </asp:ScriptReference>

        <asp:ScriptReference Name=”MicrosoftAjax.debug.js” ScriptMode=”Auto” Path=”../Includes/Scripts/System.Web.Extensions/1.0.61025.0/MicrosoftAjax.debug.js”>

        </asp:ScriptReference>

        </script>

</compositeScript>

 If you find any error related size then just concentrate on following link its very good to solve that kind of problem.

How to add AJAX tab control at run time?

 Hello friends,
Today we will discuss how to add Ajax tab control at run time.

As you know for adding tab control in our page we require two Ajax controls one is AJAX Tab Container and second is AJAX tab Panel control.
AJAX tab container is main control and Tab Panel is child control. Now you have to follow step as follow.

Step 1:-
For this first just drag drop a Tab Container on our aspx page.

Step 2 :- Now you have to add panel in tab container for that we have to work in special method of tab Container which is tab Initialize method.
It means you have to work in below event.
Private Sub tabCont_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tabCont.Init
Try
Me.pvt_DefineTabControl()
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
End Try
End Sub
Here I have created a Define tab control method in which we define tab control at run time.
According to my knowledge if you do not use this tab initialize method than you can not use run time control creation. So this event is must when you creating run time tab control

Step3 :- you are thinking what is pvt_DefineTabControl method so it’s a simple work as you see below.
Private Sub pvt_DefineTabControl()
Try
If Me.tabCont.Tabs.Count > 0 Then
Me.tabCont.Tabs.Clear()
End If
If Session(“Counter”) Is Nothing OrElse Trim(Session(“Counter”)) = String.Empty Then
Session(“Counter”) = 1
End If
For intI As Integer = 0 To CInt(Session(“counter”)) – 1
Dim tabPan As New TabPanel
Dim btnPanelNumber As New Button
btnPanelNumber.ID = “btnPanel” & intI.ToString
btnPanelNumber.Text = “Click me to create Panel ” & (intI + 1).ToString
AddHandler btnPanelNumber.Click, AddressOf MyButtonClick
tabPan.Controls.Add(btnPanelNumber)
tabPan.HeaderText = “Panel” & intI.ToString
Me.tabCont.Controls.Add(tabPan)
Next
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
End Try
End Sub
Step 4: here I have added one Button in Tab Panel for this I used a common Click event handler which is MyButtonClick
By default there is a single TabPanel when you click button in tab Panel then you will get next panel.
Private Sub MyButtonClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Try
Session(“Counter”) = Session(“Counter”) + 1
Dim strButtonId As String = CType(sender, Button).ID
Dim intId As Integer = CInt(strButtonId.Replace(“btnPanel”, 0))
Me.pvt_DefineTabControl()
Me.tabCont.Tabs(intId).HeaderText = “You have Clicked me” + intId.ToString + “Panel’s Button”
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
End Try
End Sub

Step 5:- For Example you can visit on http://indiadotnetajaxtabwork.tk/

and download code also.

Thanks & Regards
