Mr Bean

Last day, a friend of mine send me an attachment of Mr.Bean. Just see how beautiful & lovely it is. I always loved his TV series.

Response.Redirect vs Server.Transfer

The Response.Redirect method sends a message to the requesting client to request a new page. This requires a round trip between the browser and the server, but allows the user to see the new URL in the browser address bar.

Server.Transfer is a quicker approach which simply loads the specified page without the round trip. As a result, the browser’s address bar is not updated.

ASP.NET Postback flow

There is a nice pictorial demonstration of the ASP.NET Postback cycle flow in Randy Connolly’s website.

Have a look.

Server-side comment & Client-side comment

While programming, I use the comment/un-comment menu in the Visual Studio toolbar. The commented portion looks like, for example

<%-- Some Comment/Code here --%>

Later on only, I paid attention to it; as what makes it different from our normal HTML comments like;

<!-- Some Comment/Code here -->

The difference is simple. The former is called server-side comment & the latter is client-side comment. Serer-Side comments are not returned to the browser, while the client-side comments are returned to the browser.

Realizing, how I strained/managed to learn complex codes, without paying attention to such a silly thing. We all need Big without realizing what is Small.

EnableDecompression in ASP.NET WebService

Suppose that the Web Server from which a Web-Service client is requesting Web-Service supports compression; then the web-service client will receive respone as compressed data.

We can disable the decompression by setting the EnableDecompression property to true.

// on client web-application
Service srvc1 = new Service();
srvc1.EnableDecompression = true;
 
// call your web-service method here (example)
string dtime = srvc1.ReturnDateTime();
