Does anyone look at online help?

Some of these questions make it pretty clear the questioner hasn't even
made an attempt at finding the answer in the help pages that come with
..Net.

What is UP WITH THAT!?!?!?

Sometimes looking through help is like looking at an electrical technitions
map of New York city and trying to find out the voltage comming into your
apartment. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't. After failure to find,
people search elsewhere. Some of us are technical enough to search through
the index to find what we are looking for. Some of know how to screw in a
lightbulb, but are clueless what a technical breakdown map is.

And, MS Examples are not always helpful, they only make somethings even more
confusing.

P.S. The Object browser is your friend! I get more clues from it than all
those endless help docs.

I'm building a page in vb.net with several user controls on it. I'm using user controls instead of a frames page since I've seen this recommended many times in this user group. I want just one of the user controls to do a postback but not the rest of the page. Is this possible? it seems like it should be. If it is, please explain how I can do it. Thanks. -- moondaddy@nospam.com

Hello I have an ASP.NET web site where you can page through lists by using INPUT TYPE=image buttons. I noticed that, in IE6, the whole page gets cleared and built again from the ground up, whereas in Firefox, the page stays on screen until the server's answer is here. The page is built mainly with CSS layouts and DIV's/SPAN's, altough, for the list view of the actual result, a TABLE is used. The clearing of the page every time the...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
