Prefix for AJAX Extensions CTP

Hi all,

in the migration guide it says that the AJAX Extensions CTP prefix will stay at "atlas:" but when I add a reference to my EXISTING project it has the prefix "cc1:" (in other words it hasn't been defined yet in the )

<%@dotnet.itags.org.RegisterAssembly="Microsoft.Web.Preview"Namespace="Microsoft.Web.Preview.UI"TagPrefix="cc1" %>

The workaround (for users) is obvious (changing the TagPrefix) but I wanted you guys know about it.

For the fix it would be as simple as adding the TagPrefix to the assembly something like:

[assembly:TagPrefix("Microsoft.Web.Preview","atlas")]

PD: It works correctly though when I create a NEW project using the installed template in VS.NET 2005 (project template that generates AJAXCTPEnabledWebSiteX projects).

So what's the difference? It's the same dll right?

Regards,

Pieter

Hi,

I think the prefix is being registered in the web.config file of the template website.

Yes, but the guide asks to add these while migrating:

<addtagPrefix="atlas"namespace="Microsoft.Web.Preview.UI"assembly="Microsoft.Web.Preview"/>

<addtagPrefix="atlas"namespace="Microsoft.Web.Preview.UI.Controls"assembly="Microsoft.Web.Preview"/>

Still the prefix was set to "cc1"... on EXISTING pages, not on NEW pages within existing projects. Anyway, it's a minor issue.

hello.

well, i think the prefix wasn't defined by default by the team on the atlas dll. so, if you don't define it explicitly, you'll get a default prefix while droping the controls on a page.

Problem in Speeding Up First Load of this page...

Improving Response Loading

Hi,

Is there a guide in improving loading performance when using atlsa controls liek update panel, tabcontainer and tabpanels, multiview and view, Gridview, composite controls, web user controls, updateprogress and other asp.net web controls together in a web user control. I have this user control that contains 2 tabcontainers, first, has 3 tabpanels, second,
is contain as child tabpanel of one of outer tabpanels, has 6 tab panels, currently 3 of these tab panels has usercontrols, 2 outer tabpanels has gridview in them.

Is there a way to speed up loading for first time? Any ideas, I time first load of this page, it time between 4 to 6 seconds, sometimes even 9 seconds.

Basically AddButtonAttribute(), GetPostBackAugument(), GetGlobalParameter(), PopulateFilterDropDown(), PopulateFilterDropDown(), and RestrictTabs() and base.OnLoad(e) are executed when this page is loaded for first time.

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e) { AddButtonAttribute();//Add Attribute javascript functionstring args = GetPostBackArgument();//Get _PostBack(control, argument)string tabPage = GetGlobalParameter();//Get a global hidden field valueif (!Page.IsPostback) {if (tabPage !=string.Empty && args !="Redirect") RedirectTabPage(viewPage);//Where a TabPanel speciifc function is handled including loading usercontrol to this usercontrol }else {if (tabPage !=string.Empty && args !="Redirect") RedirectTabPage(tabPage);//Where a TabPanel speciifc function is handled including loading usercontrol to this usercontrolelse if (args =="ContentRedirect") PopulateFilterDropDown();//Populate 3 Dropdownlist controls } RestrictTabs();//Restrict Tabpanelsbase.OnLoad(e); }

Structure like this xml:

4 usercontrols

<hiddenfields = 14>
<UpdatePanel>
<TabContainer>
<TabPanel>
<MultiView>
<View>
<UpdateProgress></UpdateProgress>
<control></control>
<GridView></GridView>

</TabPanel>
<TabPanel>
<UserControl></UserControl>
</TabPanel>
</TabContainer>
</TabPanel>

</TabContainer>
</UpdatePanel>

Thabks in advanced.

I was wondering using Session to replace HiddenFields to speed up loading, and put controls found inside tab into a user control and loading them when it is needed, will this speed up loading process a lot?

Try this set

<% @.Page Trace="True" %>The trace information will show you exactly how large your ViewState is for that page.

try to figure out which controls you can disable the ViewState for (EnableViewState="False") or what might be causing your ViewState bloat.

Check debug="false" is et or not in web.config, it will improve some performance
