ASP :: Force Refresh

Frame Doesn't Refresh Properly When Manually Refresh Page
I have a page with 2 frames. The first one has a link that loads a page in the second frame. This page has a button on it. When the button is hit, the page does some processing and loads another page in the same frame (the second).

I use ASP and response.redirect or javascript in the onclick event of the button to do the redirection. When I refresh the page by clicking the button on the browser (IE), the second frame becomes empty. Please note that the src attribute of the frame is not set.

If I set the src attribute of the second frame to some asp page and then navigate to another page inside the same frame, when I refresh the page, the initial asp page is loaded in the frame regardless of the asp page currently loaded into the frame.

It seems that when you refresh the page, the frames are reinitialized no matter what pages are currently loaded in the frames.

I solved the problem by redirecting to the main page in the top frame, passing some parameters and resetting the src of the frame to the desired asp page. Thus, when the page is refreshed, all the frames are properly refreshed too.

Using Refresh Button On The Menu Bar To Refresh Two Frames.
I have an ASP site that uses frames two frames. (yes I
should be using include files, but we started ou using
frames so we have been stuck with frames.)

When I get a page expired warning (I am not caching pages)
and a user clicks refresh from the menu bar the user is
taken back to the home page! The home page is a frame with
a top frame that is repeated on each subsequent asp pages

The lower half of the home page is a login screen.

After login the next page is shown in the lower half of
the frame. Refreshing within the individual frames is ok.

But when the Refresh from the menu bar is used the home
page is returned any ideas why?

this I am just searching for the wrong thing?

Force Download Of .pdf Files
The below code forces a prompt to the user to open or save the .pdf file file to their local machine. It seems to work great except I have one user who can not open any .pdfs using this prompting method. He gets an error that says "File could not be found". However, if we choose the 'save' option instead, we can save the file to his local machine. He can open .pdf files from normal links to .pdf files. It's just this prompting method that is causing a problem. So, I'm perplexed.

I did some digging and found that there is also an FSO (File System Object) method (which may or may not solve my problem), but I'm not sure how to impliment the FSO or if that will even help me with this.

Force Activex After Declined
We have a web application that prompts the user to accept an ActiveX control (in this case, a report creation control) and then continues. If the first time the user gets this prompt, they accidentally decline to accept, they have no way to force it to load later. Any suggestions on how we can force this prompts again?

WWW-Authenticate To Force Anonymous
I have a server that hosts a few intranet sites. The one that all my coworkers have their Home Page set for causes their browser to authenticate, which is all good.

The one i'm working on now requires Anonymous Access in order to work, but the authentication from the first one is carrying over to the other. Can I use WWW-Authenticate to force anonymous access isntead of using it to force NTLM, Basic, etc?

Force Scroll To Bottom Of Page?
I have a page that does a postback using ASP.NET and VB.NET. Basically, there is a form item that changes the settings on the page and it is near the bottom of the page. If you change it, the page has to refresh to display the changes to the page, but when it does, the refresh causes the page to be displayed at the TOP of the page.

Is there a way to force the page to either A: scroll to the bottom or B: (even better) scroll to a certain focus point on the page by giving the name of a control or something?

Force Page To Open In Table

Force A "page Expired"
I have a registration page where people sign up for different tennis leagues. However after they're done, they change their minds and use the back key to backup a page and either add or change their selections which ofcourse messes up registrations completely since it was written to the database already. BIG FAT COLORED letters do not prevent them from doing this, neither do they read any instructions. (Which I probably should know by now....)
I need to prevent them from doing this by expiring the pages. Both these sites are using asp pages, but the one site is linking to an MS SQL database and the other to an Access.

Refresh
My page uses code like this to redirect to other pages for the purpose of allowing errors and confirmatory statements to be seen by Administrators and Users alike.

Response.Write("<meta http-equiv=""Refresh"" content=""4; URL=AdminSelectAction.asp"">")

The problem is that this does not allow the refresh button to be pressed because it does not change the address in the address bar in Internet Explorer. Response.Redirect does change the address. Is there a way to make a pause before changing the page that WILL change the address in the bar?

How To Refresh A Page?
When a link on page A is clicked, a window is popped open through javascript and this window contains page B. After doing some modifications in page B(in the popup-window), the user hits 'submit' (in page B) and then the page B window is closed.

Right before page B's window is closed I'd like page A to be refreshed because the modifications the user performed directly modifies the information visible to the user on page A.

My question is divided into two parts:

1 - is it possible to do this? Can the error be detected?
2 - if the answer to 1 is yes, then question 2 is: how?

Refresh And Session
If I logout of my websie I run the session.abandon command that is supposedly gonna destroys all session variables. Then if try to access a private asp page it actually shows up despite me having :

if not Session("login") = "true" then response.Redirect("login.asp") at the start of every private page.

If I hit refresh on the private page I do get redirect but I dont see why it doesnt happen straight away.

Another thing, kind of the same problem, when I add record to my access database then I goto the page that actually shows does record I sometime need to hit refresh for the new record to show up. Code:

Form Refresh
I'm having a small problem with refreshing my form after saving data in my database! here's what i'm trying to do:

* In my UpdateDB.asp form i display my database records and the user can make changes on whatever record he wants;

* after he'll have to save changes by hitting the save button on the form;

* when i receive the "save" action, i update the database; set a session variable that i'll use later to true ( Session("UpdateDB")= TRUE) and DISABLE the Save Button.

*once i'm done with it i reset my session variable to false ( Session("UpdateDB")= FALSE); and WOULD LIKE to "ENABLE" the save button; but i can't.

Everything works just fine but i can't "ENABLE" my save button? how can i refresh the page and get back the save button? i thought that after resetting my session variable to false would help me but i don't know how to use it?

Refresh Problem
Just built a site for my football team and have a page that displays news articles that are pulled from a database, it shows the last 5 that have been added. I have a seperate admin page where you can go and add a new article to the database by filling in a form and submitting it.

It all works fine apart from if you add an article and then go to the article page to see it it wont show the one just added unless you refresh the page. Not a major problem I know but very annoying.

I would have thought that after adding the article going back and reloading the article page should reflect the changes just made automatically?

This code refreshes correctly:

<% Response.AddHeader "Refresh", "5;URL=page.asp" %>

IFRAME - Refresh
It's me again asking about IFRAME.

With UncleWobby, Steven Burn and Roland Hall's help, I was able to create a
proper IFRAME section on my page.

Now I come to the next problem.

I'd like to be able to:

- manually refresh the IFRAME, and
- set a time interval to auto refresh the IFRAME

I've got <META http-equiv="REFRESH" content="10"> in the child page (src of IFRAME) which refreshes the page in IFRAME every 10 seconds. Is there anyway I can

- change the refresh interval value, and;
- set the page in IFRAME to auto refresh or not;

from the parent page but without submitting a form from the parent page (to avoid refreshing the parent page)?
