The site I am working on was using a fancybox to display checkboxes and such so that an admin can easily add more items to a specific product. After messing with it for way too long, I have to scrap that fancybox, but now that the page is broken, I'm not sure what to do. The checkboxes that were displayed are in such a large quantity that using collapsible divs would just make the page a huge mess.
Is there a different modal pop-up that might work better than fancybox? I read that modals just don't work with ASP and that is what I am using for this site. ASP.net 4.0 using VB. If anyone has ideas or suggestions I would love to hear them. I'm struggling with where to take this project now.
There are hundreds of jQuery plugins with modal windows and close functionality. For example check this . I personally use colorbox

I've just started using Django CMS so my understanding of the tool is very limited, but I've been trying to do something that I assumed would be very simple, yet, I couldn't find a way of doing it.
I'm currently looking to add some textboxes and comboboxes on a webpage. I couldn't find these controls in the content section of the CMS. There are many choices like buttons, maps, videos, pictures, etc. but I didn't find textbox or combobox. How can I create these?
Thanks!
I downloaded the Aldryn package which seems to do the trick.
I have some experience with ASP.NET, and this is my second time using the log in control. In this project, I'm using a bootstrap toolbar that has the log in control on the side of the toolbar. The thing is, unless I can add bootstrap styling and take out some parts of the log in control, I need a way to assign log in functions to my preexisting boxes.
I know that I could try to re-code the log in function, but like I said, I'm a beginner and I'm not sure that I could keep all the functionality or get it to work period. Are there any simpler solutions? If not, are there any good tutorials on re-coding from scratch?
Screenshot of my toolbar (Ignore the other login function, it's for playing around with):
You can provide the ASP.NET login control with a template which gives some ability to customise the layout and styling:

I haven't tried it myself, but there's a project to provide Twitter Bootstrap controls for ASP.NET: https://github.com/pmcfernandes/BootstrapControls
just wondering is there any free tool which can aid in making the GUI/interface layout of asp.net/html forms ? My forms mostly end up in being less user friendly and not good looking at all.
I have been using Bootstrap framework to get my design up to speed in no time. You can use this tool to get forms created in minutes. http://bootsnipp.com/forms?version=3
Why don't you try downloading the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar and use it to reverse-engineer some simple, good looking sites that you come across?

You can use it to grab the entire CSS of any site, or hover over areas of a page and see the various divs and their associated CSS rules highlighted.
Ok so this is super basic. I just got done implementing the collapsible panel using the MS AJAX Toolkit and was wondering if anyone knew where to get the collapse and expand images that they use in their demo?
One would think these images would be distributed with the toolkit...if so - where are they found? Any recommendations for collapse/expand images in open-source-creative-commons domain?
you can set them using the properties
ExpandedImage="~/images/collapse.jpg"
CollapsedImage="~/images/expand.jpg"
the images can be found inside the toolkit
if you want to add your custom image you can get them from http://www.iconfinder.net
you can find them if you view the source code on the sample page... no they're not included, though. this is so you can provide your own images.
on a side note, have you tried implementing this functionality using jquery? :)
I chose AjaxToolKit to build a WebForm login. Has anyone else had problems trying to do this? I'm planning to use DropShadow Extender and RoundedCorners with Panels, but this is my first time working with panels.
Please check this link.
I want to put a login panel into something like the screenshot shows, whenever the user clicks a button. This would be similar functionality to what happens on StackOverflow when you try to insert an image or hyperlink in 'ask a question'. Is this possible? How much effort is it?
If you are talking about 100% using ajax control toolkit, check out the ModalPanel example.
You could also go for a javascript library option like iBox, which would be a bit harder to integrate, but not much.
I much prefer doing this manually with javascript and css, if you know what you are doing it is not that hard, if you aren't familiar with those technologies it may take more work. Here is a good post that walks you through the basics
I use AjaxControlToolkit extensively in my application and its really simple.Being server side ajax I does emit a lot of javascript on your page. I suggest you use AJAX only where its required i.e. in cases where a page does lots of things and you want to make it more responsive something like a Dashboard kind of app.
