Avoiding query timeouts in ASP.NET ?

[Sten Westerback]

Hi

We are using ASP.NET on IIS5 to process requests
in a database.

How can one make choices in the .aspx based on
if a user has or hasn't changed a field? Is it possible
to control the ASP.NET environment by use of
some client side scripting ( ?changes=yes to URL)
or is there a way to tell in .aspx which Label elements
has changed?
Only solution i can think of currently is to query the
DB and then do an field by field comparision. Is that
the best way?

There was no way for you to know it, but this is a classic asp newsgroup.
While you may be lucky enough to find a dotnet-savvy person here who can
answer your question, you can eliminate the luck factor by posting your
question to a group where those dotnet-savvy people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet.

Hello,

Be very carefully when trusting client side code. A client can very easily
fake a change, when nothing has changed, and can cause problems depending on
what your application is about.

One way to solve your problem is to use hidden fields.

I suggest that you try in a newsgroup about ASP.NET, for example:

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet

well this is pretty easy to acomplish on the client ( HTML ) side, if you
add handling code to the onchange event of a html textbox control
you can then post these changed values to a hidden frame
