Title Bar.. Dynamic Data

Bilal Dhavan

I am using ASP.Net with .Net Framework 1.1.

I want to display account number in the windows title bar. The data that I
am going to display will be from server side control (txtAcountNo.te xt).

I can use the following statement to display the title.

<title>

<% = txtAcountNo.val ue %>

</title>

But the problem is if the user changes the txtAccountNo.te xt value while
working with the program it is not getting reflected in the title bar.
Programming point, I am resubmitting the page to change txtAccountNo.te xt.

This approach may be not a good one.

Any other approach?

Thanks,

Bilal

Hi Bilal,

How about using some JavaScript to change the title dynamically?

Private Sub Page_Load _
(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles MyBase.Load
txtAcountNo.Att ributes.Add("on blur", _
"document.title =this.value;")
End Sub

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>

<% = txtAcountNo.tex t %>

</title>
<meta name="GENERATOR " content="Micros oft Visual Studio .NET 7.1">
<meta name="CODE_LANG UAGE" content="Visual Basic .NET 7.1">
<meta name="vs_defaul tClientScript" content="JavaSc ript">
<meta name="vs_target Schema"
content="http://schemas.microso ft.com/intellisense/ie5">
</HEAD>
<body MS_POSITIONING= "FlowLayout ">
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
<P>
<asp:TextBox id="txtAcountNo " runat="server"> </asp:TextBox></P>
<P>
<asp:Button id="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button"></asp:Button></P>
</form>
</body>
</HTML>

Greeting Billal,

This is what it should happen since you are not adding any handler
when user changes value in textbox.

Two solutions:

-Add a javascript handler. Choose an event for txtAccountNo from the
event menu , one could be onblur, then add this snippet code:

document.title= document.all("t xtAccountNo").v alue
- Add a server-side event, ServerChange, for txtAccountNo then add
this snippet:

Response.write( "<script>docume nt.title=docume nt.all("txtAcco untNo").value
</script>")

Then place html control to enable a server trip so the code above can
be executed.

TTH,

dynamic page title

by: Mark | last post by:

I'm interested in displaying a dynamic page title, rather than the static html <title>My Page</title>. In a previous posting, I had seen a suggestion of making the title into a server control using syntax like: <TITLE id="objTitle" runat="server" /> However, this works for a while, but VS.NET always eventually removes the runat attribute, and my code bombs. One reason might be that it isn't included in the <form> tag?? Can the...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
