Question and Answer

Postback

Allows the developer to separate code that needs to be run only when the page is first

loaded.

In a desktop application, the page only gets loaded once for the user to work

with it.

In a web application, the page is completely reloaded every time the server processes

something on it.

Response.Write

Used to print text or the value of a variable onto the webpage.

Does it matter if AutoEventWireup is on with VB?

No because events are not wired to the code-behind, so they still fire.

The Method Name dropdown box in VB is not affected by the value of what?

The AutoEventWireup value

What is the order for the 10 page events?

PreInit

Init

InitComplete

PreLoad

Load

LoadComplete

PreRender

PreRenderComplete

SaveStateComplete

Unload

What is a Page Event?

An alert specifying that something has changed on the page.

What does PIIPLLPPSU mean?

PreInit, Init, InitComplete, PreLoad, Load, LoadComplete, PreRender,

PreRenderComplete,SaveStateComplete, Unload

What are the 5 main types of page event?

Init, Load, Render, SaveState and Unload.

PreInit

This is where a test can be made to see if this is a postback page. Also where controls

are created or re-created, sets the master page, sets the theme, reads or sets property

values.

Init

Buttons, labels, or the form itself, called controls, can have their properties read or

initialized.

InitComplete

Changes to the view state can be made here.

PreLoad

Not a commonly used event.

Load

This too can be used for setting control properties. It is also used for database

connections.

LoadComplete

Some controls need to be placed on the form before changes to their properties will

take effect or before their methods can be run. Do it here.

PreRender

This is the last stage before ASP.NET starts converting everything into a web page.

Make any final changes here.

PreRenderComplete

This is a special event for binding data to controls.

SaveStateComplete

The view and control states have been saved at this stage. Placing code here will

affect this page, but these changes will not be used for the next postback.

Unload

This event fires for each control found on the page. Then, the unload event will fire

for the page itself. This is commonly sued for cleanup methods such as closing files

and database connections. This is also where new pages can be called to pop up.

Application_Error

Application_LogRequest

Application_Start

Triggered when the web app is first launched. Only fired once in the lifetime of the

app. An ideal place to initialize variables that will be used throughout the site.

Application_End

Triggered just before the app is terminated. Typically people will free up application

resources or save logging info.

Application_Error

Triggers when an error occurs on the site.

Application_LogRequest

Triggered only when a request has been made to the application; used for custom

logging.

Triggers when a new user starts a session for the first time

Session_OnEnd

Triggers when a session is terminated.

Where do the events in the application and session stages of the app occur?

These only occur on the web server.

What is Global.asax?

A file on the server that, if present, contains program code for handling session and

application events. These events are only processed from the file and nothing from

this file is ever passed to the client's browser.

What are the stages of the Page life cycle in order?

1. Compile page

2. Set request and response

3. Initialize page controls

4. If postback, load control properties from view state

5. Validates pages and controls

When should you dynamically add a control to a page?

In the INIT phase.

What is the PreLoad page event used for?

To change things before the view state loads

What phase should you initialize your page controls?

During the Load event because ASP.net already knows whether the request is a

PostBack or not.

Which page event does Visual Studio include by default?

The Page_Load event, because it's the most likely one you're going to attach code to.

When do Button.Click events run?

Right after Load but before LoadComplete

Which event is useful for making final changes to pages and why?

The PreRender event because all the controls will have been initialized and all

PostBack events have taken place. Also occurs before saving the ViewState.

What must you do to use cross-page posting?

Change the value of the PostBackUrl property of a control.

What is the difference between Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer?

Server.Transfer will serve a second page to the browser without changing the URL,

whereas Response.Redirect will actually forward to the new URL and change it in the

browser.

What is the name of the file which contains all .NET settings on a computer?

machine.config - Do not change this unless you know what you're doing.

Where would the values of items entered into the web.config file be accessed

from?

Webpackages

Which type of deployment method can make changes to the server?

Windows Installer packages

What is the most popular client scripting environment?

Javascript

Where would you want to place your javascript?

Javascript is executed top to bottom, therefore you would not want to place a large

script at the top because it will inhibit page loading. Small scripts can go up top but

larger ones should be lower.

What is view-state?

A page-level management tool which is used to maintain the state of Web Form

controls.

What is jQuery?

A collection of JavaScript scripts which may be used to speed up the process of

writing code.

What does AutoEventWireup do?

Ties events to the code-behind of the page.

What do you call the topmost part of an ASP.NET web page and what does it

do?

It is called the Page directive and is used to specify the coding language, the name of

the code-behind file, setting AutoEventWireup to true/false and more.

When do the items of code in the Page_Load event happen?

Every time the page is loaded in a browser.

With AutoEventWireup set to false...

...the page events are not fired because the events are no longer wired to the code-

behind.

What is AutoEventWireup set to by default in visual basic?

False

What does "Me" mean in reference to Visual Basic handles?

It is an alias for the current form. For example Handles Me.Load references events

occurring in the current form.

What keyboard combination runs the site step by step in debug mode?

F5

What keyboard combination runs the site normally as an end user would see

it?

Control+F5

Do event handlers work with C# ?

No, it is used for visual basic.

Where is the Method Name drop down menu located?

In the code-behind view of a .cs or .vb file, on top of the source code on the right

hand side.

Where is the Class Name drop down menu located?

In the code-behind view of a .cs or .vb file, on top of the source code on the left hand

side.

What does the Method Name drop down menu contain?

All the events related to the web page.

What happens to the list of events in the Method Name drop down list of a

visual basic ASP.NET file if you change the AutoEventWireup attribute to False?

Nothing, visual basic is not reliant on autoeventwireup, therefore the method name

list always contains the events related to the page whether AEWU is true or false.

What happens in the Method Name drop down list if you remove the event

handler from an event procedure in a VB asp.net file?

The events disappear because the event handler is no longer present.

What does a C# file need in order to see events?

It needs AutoEventWireup to be set to true.

What does a visual basic file need in order to see events?

An event handler.

How do you set a breakpoint?

By clicking the gray area to the far left of the event procedure header.

At what point of an event procedure does the breakpoint pause at?

Right before the code of that procedure runs.

What does Shift+F5 do in visual studio?

It continues running the page and exits debugging mode if you were in the process

of using F5 to debug.

How do you add code to the code-behind in a visual basic file?

You can either double click a control or choose an item from the method name drop

down list and it will place most of the code on the page for you.

How many times can you use an event procedure from the Method name drop

down?

Each event procedure can only be run once per page. If you try to add a duplicate

event procedure to your page it will simply move your cursor to the one you already

have.

What happens during the PreInit stage?

You can test to see if this is a postback or not.

What stage do buttons, labels or other controls have their properties read?

The Init stage.

What stage would you make changes to the view state in?

The InitComplete stage, since the controls have been read or initialized at this point.

What can you do in the Page_Load stage?

You can set control properties here, also connections to a database typically happen

here.

What happens in the LoadComplete stage?

Some controls need to be placed on the form before changes to their properties will

take effect, you'd do that here.

What page life cycle would you make any final changes to your page?

The PreRender stage. This is the last stage before things get converted into HTML by

IIS.

In what stage are the view and control states saved by?

The SaveStateComplete stage.

What stage can you place code which will not be used for the next postback?

In the SaveStateComplete stage.

Which event fires the controls found on the page?

The Unload stage. For example if you click a button it will fire that event, then fire

the whole page, then unload the page normally as a Postback, where the whole

process starts again.

What is the name of the code at the top of an ASP.NET page which includes <%

%> ?

The page Directive

Encapsulations of sections of pages which are registered and used as controls

in ASP.NET are?

What is ViewState mostly used for?

To preserve form information across Postbacks.

What kind of encryption is used by viewstate?

base64 serialization, which is easy to decode

What are master pages?

Basically template pages, which can be nested, used to decrease the amount of repeat

code needing to be used.

asax file ext

The global application file, commonly called Global.asax, used for application-level

logic and for defining global variables that work across the entire application.

ascx file ext

User control files

axd file ext

These are used for trace files when they are enabled in the web.config file

config file ext

Most often web.config, these are the configuration files, which can be nested, that

define specific parameters. These are xml files.

cs or vb file ext

Used for the code behind files. For example Website.aspx would be the main design

page but Website.aspx.cs would be the C# code-behind page for it.

dbml file ext

LINQ to SQL data classes file

edmx file ext

ADO.NET Entity Framework model

master file ext

Used for master page files. Default name is Master1.master

sitemap file ext

What is in the App_Code directory?

The raw code files themselves.

What is in the App_Data directory?

The default directory for any databases used by the asp.net website.

What is in the App_LocalResources directory?

Can be used to hold localization files so the asp.net site can change languages

automagically.

What is in the App_GlobalResources directory?

Holds resx files with localized resources available to every page of the site. This is

where asp.net developers will typically store localized messages which are used on

more than one page.

What is in the App_Themes directory?

Holds files related to themes which is a new asp.net feature that helps ensure a

consistent appearance throughout a web site and makes it easier to change the web

site's appearance when necessary.

What is in the App_WebReferences directory?

Holds discovery files and WSDL files for reference to web services to be consumed in

the site.

What is in the Bin directory?

Contains compiled code (.dll files) for controls, components or other code that you

want to reference in your application. Any classes represented by code int he Bin

folder automatically get reference in your application.

Why is it important to understand the page life cycle?

So you can put your code in the appropriate section for the effect you intend.

What's the difference between page life cycle events and application life

cycle events?

Page events happen each time you go to a new page or reload/postback the one you're

on. Application events occur when the App starts and stops regardless of who is going

to what pages.

Why wouldn't it work to try to manipulate controls with code in the

Initialization page life cycle stage?

Because the data has not yet been loaded and control values have not yet been

restored from view state. That happens next in the Load cycle.

What happens during the Unload stage of the page life cycle?

This event occurs after the page has been rendered and sent to the client/browser.

Page properties are unloaded and cleanup is performed to free up memory.

Why is it important to use the IsPostback property on a page?

So you can sense whether or not the page has already been initialized and therefore

not waste resources doing it again. Prevents the page from processing the same code

on every postback.

Why is postback needed for web sites but not for desktop applications?

Because desktop applications only initialize once whereas web pages will initialize

each server round-trip.

How would you define a session variable called X that has Hello world in

it?

Session["X"] = "Hello world";

How would you use a session variable called X in another page?

Set the label or control by using:

Label1.Text = Convert.ToString(Session["X"]);

What is the difference between Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer?

Response.Redirect forwards you to the new page and reflects the new URL whereas

Server.Transfer sends the browser a different page but leaves the URL the same. As

far as the browser is concerned it is displaying the same page as before.

What is required to use cross-page posting?

The PostBackURL property must be set on the control. For example on a Button

control you would set the PostBackURL to another page, then when you click the

button it sends you to that page.

What is cross-page posting?

Moving data from one page to another.

Give a summary of Response.Redirect:

1. It's the standard method of switching to another page.

2. It can be directed to any URL

3. ViewState is not applicable

Give a summary of Server.Transfer:

1. The browser is unaware that the web page changed.

2. URL doesn't change (incomplete page cycle)

3. It's limited to pages on the current site

4. ViewState is supported but does not include ViewState variables.

Give a summary of Cross-page posting:

1. A simpler form of Server.Transfer

2. Uses the PostBackURL method of a web control to change pages.

3. URL changes (complete page cycle)

4. It's limited to pages on the current site

5. ViewState supported but does not include ViewState variables.

What kind of objects are user controls?

System.Web.UI.UserControl objects. They are saved separately as .ascx files.

What kind of objects are server controls?

System.Web.UI.WebControls objects

How do you add a user control to a page?

Add a Panel control, then drag the .ascx file from the solution explorer to the Panel.

How would you reuse a user control for a different site?

You must copy the control to the new website because they only work on a site by

site basis and cannot be added to the toolbar.

What is the name of the file which contains all default settings for the

entire .net system on a computer?

Machine.config

How do you get to where you can add users to a site?

In visual studio, click the Website menu, then ASP.NET configuration.

What are the two methods of authentication seen in the web.config file?

Windows mode or Forms mode.

How would you compare the input of a textbox to the value of

"myPassword" which is saved in the appSettings of the asp.net

configuration?

An if statement such as: if (TextBox1.Text ==

System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["myPassword"])

Label1.text = "You're in"; else Label1.text = "Incorrect Password";

How do you make a global.asax file?

You must click Add New Item, then select Global Application Class.

Name the 6 ASP.NET intrinsic objects:

Request

Server

Behavior: specifies local implementation details of endpoint

What are 3 modes of persistence for session variables?

In Process mode

ASPState mode

SqlServer mode

What's the difference between AppSettings and ApplicationSettings?

AppSettings is from .net 2.0 vs ApplicationSettings which is .net 3.5 and 4

What would you store as an application setting?

Anything someone may need to edit down the road such as database connection

strings and other variables.

If you create an application setting where will it be stored?

In the web.config file under the applicationSettings tab. The setting will have a name

and serializeAs attribute as well as a nested <value>value tag</value>

If you create an applicationSetting called greeting how would you then

call it in your code?

By calling the Properties.Settings.Default.greeting value. It is strongly typed when

using applicationSettings. It is not if using the older appSettings.

If you create an appSetting called greeting how would you use it in your

code?

You would have to call WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["greeting"]. It is NOT

strongly typed, you must type it correctly.

How do you add an appSetting?

Through the ASP.NET configuration webpage.

What namespace do you have to add to your page in order to call an

appSetting?

using System.Web.Configurations

Why would you use the configSource option?

To allow admins to set a specific value without giving them access to the rest.

What is camelcase?

The method used by most traditional programming languages when typing multi

word variable names, parameters etc where the first word is lower case and

subsequent words have the first letter capitalized. For example

thisWouldBeCamelCase.

Where would you set the configsource property?

In the web.config as an option for a parameter. For example in the system.web section

you could add <trace configSource="trace.config" /> to both add the trace element

and point it to the trace.config file. This would enable system administrators to turn

tracing on or off by editing that trace.config file, and you could still block access to

the root web.config so they couldn't change anything else.

What is the first part of any style sheet?

The selector

What is the difference between a class selector and an ID selector?

A class selector, such as t.center, is used to specify a style for a group of elements,

in this case anywhere you'd use a T tab. The ID selector allows you to style a unique

element. You specify the name of it and then call it in your code using the same ID.

For example #id1 {color:green;} in the CSS and then <p id=id1> in the HTML.

What does the <sub> tag do?

Its used to change the appearance of the enclosed text or numeric as subscript,

making it look like footnotes.

regardless of how many users or what page they're on.

Which intrinsic object would you use to read a cookie?

The response object.

What's the main purpose of ViewState?

To preserve form data across postbacks. That way if someone submits something

that had a wrong value, the rest of the fields aren't lost. They are simply repopulated

after the postback with their previous information.

Describe SqlDataSource

SqlDataSource is a db connection that uses an ADO.net provider such as SqlClient

or ODBC. It enables a web server control to access data located in a relational db. It

can be used with data bound controls such as gridview/formview etc to display and

modify data on a web page.

Describe XmlDataSource

XmlDataSource represents an XML data source to the data-bound controls such as

gridview and treeview. Controls can use XmlDataSource to display heirarchical and
