My current aspx form askes users to input fields into texbox and press submit button. We are thinking of using PUT method that read parameters from the URLs? Any quick solution for this?
You should look into using ASP.NET MVC. The original version of ASP.NET used POSTbacks a lot in the WebForms model which is why you are seeing that behaviour. It is possible to write HttpHandlers or HttpModules which give you more flexibility without requiring ASP.NET MVC.
HTML4 doesn't support PUT method in forms. So using PUT in a form method would generate invalid HTML, and I'm reasonably sure the browser will execute a POST instead of a PUT anyway (at least that's what FF 3.6 did when I tried to change the form method to PUT).
If you want to get information out of the URL, just change the form method to be GET instead of POST.

i am working on a web application using asp.net c#. it has multiple textbox controls like
TextboxA TextboxB TextBoxResult1
TextBoxX TextBoxY TextBoxResult2
i am doing some calculation on TextboxA,B,X,Y and displaying result to TextBoxResult1 and TextBoxResult2 using Ontextbox_change event.
my question is that On each calculation my page is going to refresh.i need to know how can i do this without auto post back . i don't want to use code other than c# like Ajax, java script, jQuery etc.
AutoPostback=true;
thanks in advance
You can't. The code on a view is done at render and is then static html. In order to update the information you either do what you're doing (POST back) or use ajax to post back to the controller but only update specific information instead of refreshing the entire page. You could look into Blazor, but it's still experimental and not fully released (I can't comment on it, haven't used it myself yet).
I am using the JQuery UI Modal Form Dialog and trying to save the old data and new data to a database. I am using C# (backend) and ASP.NET front end. I can delete new entries, I just don't know how to save the data. I have tried searching ways to pull pull the HTML data in, but couldn't get rid of the errors. Also Wasn't sure if there was a better method? Here is my JSFiddle
function addUser() {
I need to figure out a way to get the data from the table and post it to the server.
I think what you may be looking for is web methods, it allows the jquery (client side) to call the backend (c#) and for them to interact with each other.

Here is a brief summary from the website:
When it comes to lightweight client-side communication, I’ve noticed
that many of you prefer ASP.NET AJAX’s page methods to full ASMX web
services. In fact, page methods came up in the very first comment on
my article about using jQuery to consume ASMX web services. Given
their popularity, I’d like to give them their due attention. As a
result of Justin‘s question in those comments, I discovered that you
can call page methods via jQuery. In fact, it turns out that you can
even do it without involving the ScriptManager at all. In this post, I
will clarify exactly what is and isn’t necessary in order to use page
methods. Then, I’ll show you how to use jQuery to call a page method
without using the ScriptManager.
I found this:
This script gets data from the table that you can then parse through.
You could then pass it into a hidden field.
I'm building SPA application using Backbone.js and as its back-end I want to use ASP.NET Web API. I need only one page and this fact brings me a lot of confusion.
ApiController returns json response and as far as I understand there's no need in asp.net-specific views at all. Am I right?
Can I use plain html for my main page? Or should I use *.cshtml and put a call to RenderBody instead?
If choose the first option then how will I handle validation?
Thanks!
Well the trick is that if you want search engines to be able to index your page, or people to be able to share to Facebook with a custom icon/description, etc you'll need to serve back static HTML -- none of those bots are able to run your javascript to render the page as the browser does.
If you're uninterested in this, then yes, you can completely avoid RenderBody.
I have seen this on some survey websites. What is the C# code they use on the client side to keep the URL same, but when clicking the "Next" button, the same aspx page is maintained
without having any query string;
without any change even a character in the url; and
the grid, the data , the content, the questions keep changing?
Can anyone give a code-wise example how to achieve this?
My main query is how is this done in code-behind to change data of page and maintain same url.
Nothing simpler that a session, maintainted at the server side. Store a "current question number" in session, increment it at each succesfull postback and you have what you ask about.
Another possibility - a cookie which contains "current question number".
Both cookie and session are invisible in the query string of course.
"change data of page and maintain same url." Answer is Server.Transfer.
This method will preserve url.
The Next button may submit a form using the HTTP POST method. The form data may contain the session, question and response data. The site uses that to build a new response. Unlike a GET, a POST does not incorporate data into the URL.
Developers will typically accomplish this task by using AJAX. The basic premise behind it is that only a certain portion of the page (e.g. a grid or content area) will make a server call and retrieve the results (using Javascript). The effect achieved is that there has not been a full post back, which is why you don't see the URL or parameters changing.
It is possible to do this using jQuery, pure Javascript, or Microsoft's UpdatePanel.
oleksii's comment has some good links as well:
That's the AJAX magic. There are many JQuery plugings for this, for
example this one with a live demo. You can also program it easily
using JQuery Get or Post or any other wrapper that use XmlHttpRequest
object.
On a button click event I am required to POST to a page on an external website and redirect there. I get how to do this using a GET method
Reponse.Redirect("www.somesite.com?my=params&as=aget")
But how can I do this on as POST?
I don't want to post the entire form as this button event is called within a repeater
Depends.
If you want to post the exact input of a form you have on your site (that is, you just replicate a form the other site has), then just set the form's action to the URL you want to post to and the browser will do everything for you.
If however you want to post some values you generate on the server (perhaps based on the input from your form), I'm afraid it's not possible. You can't redirect using a POST. Redirect is GET by it's nature.
BUT you might be able to fake it by doing a POST (using something like System.Net.WebClient) and then a redirect (it depends on how the other site handles the GET - it might display the same thing that it did on the POST, or not).
One more option (for the second case) would be to to do an AJAX call to your server, which will compute the required values, then do the POST to the other server from Javascript.
You can build up the request using WebClient, adding the appropriate headers.
My inner forms don't contain the runat="server" attribute so I can do what I want. I do get this problem though ASP.Net First inner form in Server Form doesn’t POST.
Jquery is life saving in this situation. Used for one of my project and works like a charm. Give it a try : Peter Finch - Using Javascript to POST data between pages
