I have a child page LoginContent.aspx which contains a login form. If the user logs in he should be redirected to my Welcome.aspx page. But if I press the login button the page just reloads itself, nothing happens.
The codebehind on this page is empty. Both LoginContent.aspx and Welcome.aspx are child forms of the same master page.
<form method="post" action="~/Welcome.aspx">
Username: <input type="text" name="username" size="15" /><br />
Password: <input type="password" name="passwort" size="15" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Login"/></p>
</form>
I know I could use the asp.net login control but I want more control over things.
You can't have nested form inside aspx page.
UPDATED:
Since ASP.NET webform doesn't allow us to have multiple form in one aspx page, thus in order to make it works, do the following:
Remove the form tag
add runat server to
the input perform redirect in the server side
.
Username: <input type="text" name="username" size="15" runat=server /><br/>
Password: <input type="password" name="passwort" size="15" runat=server /><br/>
<input type="submit" value="Login" runat=server onclick="submit_onclick" /></p>
And in the code behind:
protected void submit_onclick(object sender, Event e)
{
// do some auth stuff here
Response.Redirect("~/welcome.aspx");
}
Hope this will answer your question.. :)
If your <form> tag from your LoginContent.aspx nested inside your <form runat="server"> I would try moving it so it sits outside the server-side form and see if it works from there.
It might be worth tracking the HTTP requests in the Net panel of Firebug as well, just so you can see if it is actually making the HTTP POST request to /Welcome.aspx - it might help you pinpoint exactly where the problem is.

I've an aspx form with a form tag as below and this form tag contains some sensitive info with hidden fields
<form id="payment_confirmation" target="myFrame" action='https://testsecureacceptance.cybersource.com/embedded/pay' method="post"/>
<input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="sensitivevalue1">
<input type="hidden" name="profile_id" value="sensitivevalue2">
<input type="hidden" name="transaction_uuid" value="<% Response.Write(getUUID()); %>">
<input type="hidden" name="signed_field_names" value="sensitivevalue3">
<input type="hidden" name="unsigned_field_names" value="card_type,card_number,card_expiry_date">
<input type="hidden" name="signed_date_time" value="<% Response.Write(getUTCDateTime()); %>">
<input type="hidden" name="locale" value="en">
<input type="submit" id="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
When i click "Submit" it successfully post the values and user is "redirected" into the "https://testsecureacceptance.cybersource.com/embedded/pay" form but those hidden fields values are exposed to users (when they inspect the page). I can encrypt them but is there any other way i can post values and redirect from backend where values will not be exposed to users?
Thanks
In short, no. Hidden fields are only hidden from view on the screen and will always be available be available when viewing the source of the page when you are using web forms like this. You can use the viewstate, which will encode the fields and make them harder to read, but if it is truly sensitive information, you will need to properly encrypt that information.
Hope that helps.
I have a search textbox that I tried wrapping in a form element:
<form id="searchForm" method="GET" action="Search.aspx">
<input name="term" type="text" id="searchTerm" class="nav-search" size="30" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" style="display:none;"/>
</form>
I can't get it to redirect to the content page (Search.aspx) with the query string (term) from the Master Page.
I tried wrapping it in an ASP:Panel and using the DefaultButton Property but that wouldn't call the Click event in code behind.
I'm perplexed as I've searched for a solution for hours and this seems like a such common task. Thanks.
Change your code to this
<input name="term" type="text" id="searchTerm" runat="server" class="nav-search" size="30" />
<asp:Button ID="searchsubmit" OnClick="searchsubmit_Click" runat="server" Text="Search" />
in Site.Master.cs add something like this
protected void searchsubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Redirect("~/search.apsx?content=" + searchTerm.text);
}
This will allow to search with button click, if you want to hide it, add also panel around first code, saying that this is a button to automatically press when enter is pressed Something like this:
<asp:Panel ID="UserPanel" runat="server" DefaultButton="searchsubmit">
I am new to asp.net.
My question is, can a ASP.net form with runat="server", have a method attribute in it?
For example:
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="get">
.......
</form>
Is this possible?
Thanks for your answers.
I would like to share some points which I found.
By default the form with runat="server", will have method="post".
But when we request a page for the first time, (i.e) request is not a postback, the method="get".
And it becomes method="post",while postback.
I checked this by placing a piece of code in code behind:
In Page_Load():
if(Request.RequestType=="GET")
{
Response.Write("Request is a GET type");
}
else if(Request.RequestType=="POST")
{
Response.Write("Request is a POST type");
}
By default, the output
For the first request of that page: Request is a GET type
In postback: Request is a POST type
If i give the following code in the WebForm1.aspx
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="get">
For this, the output will be:
For the first request of that page: Request is a GET type
In postback: Request is a GET type
This is what I found.
Thank you very much for your responses.
yes you can try like below.
design part
you can design a form like :
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="post">
<input type="radio" name="Gender" value="male" id="test" checked="checked" />
male
<input type="radio" name="Gender" value="female" />female
<input type="submit" value="test" />
<asp:Button ID="btn" runat="server" Text="value" />
</form>
and how to get value from the form :
if (Request.Form["Gender"] != null)
{
string selectedGender = Request.Form["Gender"].ToString();
}
with this way you can get the value from form in asp.net.
i hope it will help you.
Yes,You can use use Method attribute..
The default will be Method="Post"
The form is always submitted to the page itself. If you specify an action attribute, it is ignored. If you omit the method attribute, it will be set to method="post" by default. Also, if you do not specify the name and id attributes, they are automatically assigned by ASP.NET.
If you select view source in an .aspx page containing a form containg these properties...

I am not a skilled programmer and I am building a site using a third party's CMS. I have created a <form> in order to gather information and send it to an external site. My code doesn't work. The reason I am told is that the site is built on ASP.NET and as the 'master'page already has a <form> element in it and <form> elements cannot be embedded inside one another; so what I've written will never work. I have been advised to look for a java based solution, but I'm at a loss.
My present code is pretty basic...
<form action="http://ExternalWebSite.com" method="post" id="subForm">
<label for="name">Name:</label><br /><input type="text" name="name" id="name" /><br />
<label for="Email">Email Address:</label><br /><input type="text" name="email" id="email" /><br />
<label for="Dog name">Your dog's name:</label><br /><input type="text" name="dogname" id="dogname" /><br />
<label for="Town where you live">Town where you live:</label><br /><input type="text" name="town" id="town" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Subscribe" />
</form>
How can I make this execute without using the tag inside my html code?
ASP.NET web forms adds one <form runat="server"> in your application. Therefore, you can't nest forms, but you can get multiple forms through a hack, mentioned here.
You can make an ajax call (post in this case) too to that url
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://ExternalWebSite.com",
data: { name: $("#name").val(), $("#email").val(), $("#dogname").val(), $("#town").val() },
success: function(result){
//here you handle what to do after the post
}
});
For further reference on how to use jquery go to: This link The most imortant here is the ajax called which is foinf to make a post the specified utl sending the named parameters,the success function which will receive anything you write on the response on the url you are calling, and the selectors $("#name").val() which means "give me the value of the element with the id name"
I am having a signup page at the upper of the page there is a form tag that is runat server. I want to add a code that is given by paypal take payment. That code contains a simple html controls not asp.net controls but when i paste to the code to the page then it don't submit it to the action it postback the form and don't do with paypal code at all. when i checked the source of the code it doesn't shows the from tag given by the paypal. it doesn't rander the form given by the paypal. I also have to take the form at top because my page has asp.net controls that's why that is necessary.
Please tell the solution
You must not use asp.net form tag in asp.net while payment processing.
Use this
<body onload="document.paypal.submit();">
<form name="paypal" action='<%= ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["PayPalSubmitUrl"] %>'
method="post">
// rest html goes here
</form>
</body>
I always do it like this for paypal processing
I assume you are using PayPal Standard.
If so, collect submitted values from (regular ASP.Net) form. Then forward them to PayPal like this -
protected void SubmitRadButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string paypalUrl = IsTestMode ?
"https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr" :
"https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr";
var builder = new StringBuilder();
builder.Append(paypalUrl);
builder.AppendFormat("?cmd=_xclick&business={0}", EmailTextBox.Text);
builder.Append("&lc=US&no_note=0¤cy_code=USD");
builder.AppendFormat("&item_name={0}", ItemNameHiddenField.Value);
builder.AppendFormat("&amount={0}", AmountTextBox.Text);
builder.AppendFormat("&return={0}", ReturnUrl);
builder.AppendFormat("&cancel_return={0}", CancelUrl);
builder.AppendFormat("&undefined_quantity={0}", 1);
builder.AppendFormat("&item_number={0}", ItemNumberHiddenField.Value);
builder.AppendFormat("&cpp_header_image={0}", HeaderImage);
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(builder.ToString());
}
I tried the same but didn't work. Please see my paypal code that they provided and let me know how to do this. I have tried the above method previously but this time isn't working with code. May be it is for subscription code different. Read the code following and let me know about how to use this.
<form action="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" />
<input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="LL5LZEB8L6T8S" />
<input type="image" src="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_subscribeCC_LG.gif"
name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" />
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif"
width="1" height="1" />
</form>
Thanks
