Just to let you know, I installed SP1 trial and documentation shortcuts are not in the program group.

Looks like the installer is failing to register help files properly though help is installed into "C:\Program Files\Intersoft Solutions\Intersoft WebUI Studio 2010 R1\Help2"

Hi Handy,

Thanks for the sample. I can't run it as I don't have the DB at the moment but I get the idea. However, I guess that your grid is not paged. My scenario is as follows.

I have a grid that might contain several pages of data. When the user selects or checks a row I save his selection into a local database. At the next login I want to restore and show the selected row. I want to do it based on the row key field value. I can't just save the page index and row index because user's screen size and grid page size might be different next time or the underlying dataset could change. I wonder if there's an easy way to select the row based on its key value, go to the grid page containing this row, and if the grid is scrollable then scroll the selected row into view.

Another question is about FlyPostBack technology. I'd like to know if it can be used instead of UpdatePanel in the following scenario. My application has a grid used for navigation which is placed inside an UpdatePanel. When the user selects a row the grid performs full postback (which is converted to callback by UpdatePanel). Based on the user's selection I'm dynamically loading different ASCX controls into another UpdatePanel. I have to use ASCX because I need to raise events between all parts of the application. Note that only one ASCX control at a time is added to the page controls tree. Is it possible to change the grid to FlyPostBack mode but still enjoy partial rendering of dynamically loaded ASCX controls (with some additional markup around them)?

Best regards,

Artem Pushkin

Thanks Yudi, hope you'll have something for me soon. I am indeed targeting xhtml 1.0 transitional doctype and not excited about possibly having to design for quirks mode.

I've also found that the tutorials on WebDesktop recommend to remove doctype declaration and xmlns attribute from <html> tag.

Do you have a public database of current issues for your products?

Hi Yudi,


Thanks for your answers. Now I have another question. I tried to build a prototype of my application using WebPaneManager & WebNavPane, mostly with default settings, but I couldn't get it to display with fixed size in pixels. After some digging I've found in these forums a recommendation to use the doctype

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >

It almost fixed the rendering issue except for border around WebNavPane showing in IE but not in FF.
However my concern is that this doctype is not a standard and well-formed one and it should be triggering quirks mode in browsers.
Are you depending on quirks mode for correct rendering of WebDesktop controls?
