asp.net ajax server side event handling on client

I want to notify browser of every time my server side event fires w/o
creating some sort of timer on client. Basically, can server notify
client w/o client initiating contact? Again, thx for any information
you can provide.

Hi Rodney,

HTTP protocol does not allow the server to "push" to the client. The client
always has to be the one initiating the request.

Ajax allows to simulate "push" by having the client "poll" the server when
certain client side events occur: mouseover, timer tick, click, etc.

Java Applets, ActiveX, or Flash can be used to "push" from server to client.

Hi, I have been toying around with this for a day now. Has anyone else tried it? Two questions: 1: How do you pass a paramater to the server side event, e.g. if you wanted to pass a selected value from a dropdownlist to the server side event? I cant see a way of doing it. I have ended up just returning a big dataset to the client javascript and filtering it there. I'd rather pass in a variable to the server side code and only return...

Hello, with ASP.NET 2.0 Ajax every unexpected error is managed client-side with a popup that reports the error to the user. In ASP.NET 3.5 this behavor has been changed: how can I have a similar behavor? I'd like that every exception raised from ASP.NET runtime during an asyncpostback is managed in client side with a popup that reports the error message. thanks

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,...
