Introduction to ASP.NET : Basics
What Is ASP.NET?• Web development platform, which provides a programming model, a comprehensive software
infrastructure and various services required to build up robust web application for PC, as well as mobile devices
• ASP.Net works on top of the HTTP protocol and uses the HTTP commands and policies to set a browser-to-server two-way communication and cooperation
• The ASP.net application code could be written in different languages like C#, visual basic .NET, Jscript, J#
• Used to produce interactive, data-driven web applications over the internet• ASP.NET pages have the extension .aspx, and are normally written in VB (Visual Basic) or C# (C
sharp)
•A markup language is a set of markup tags

Introduction to ASP.NET : Web Pages
It is a framework that you can use to create dynamic web pages A simple HTML web page is static, its content is determined by the fixed HTML markup
that's in the page Take information from a user, save it in a database, and then list it later. Interact with other services on the web (for example, a mapping service) and produce
pages that integrate information from those sources

Introduction to ASP.NET : Master Pages
Provide templates for other pages on your web site It allow to create a consistent look and behavior for all the pages (or group of pages) in
web application Provides a template for other pages, with shared layout and functionality It defines placeholders for the content, which can be overridden by content pages. The
output result is a combination of the master page and the content page The content pages contain the content to display

Master Page(filename Master1.master) :<%@ Master Language="C#" %><!DOCTYPE html ><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" ><body> <form id="form1" runat="server">
<div> <asp:contentplaceholder id="Main" runat="server" /> </div>
<div> <asp:contentplaceholder id="Footer" runat="server" /> </div> </form></body></html>
Introduction to ASP.NET : Master Pages
Content Page:<% @ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Master.master" Title="Content Page 1" %>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="Main" Runat="Server">
Main content.
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="Footer" Runat="Server" >
Footer content.
</asp:content>
Example: The directive used for master page is <%@ Master Language="C#" %> and for variable content to display in different pages
content place holder is declared as <asp:contentplaceholder id="Main" runat="server" />

Controls are small building blocks of the graphical user interface, which include text boxes, buttons, check boxes, list boxes, labels, and numerous other tools
Using these tools, the users can enter data, make selections and indicate their preferences Used for structural jobs, like validation, data access, security, creating master pages, and data
manipulation ASP.NET uses five types of web controls, which are:
ASP.NET HTML Server controls ASP.NET Server controls ASP.NET Validation controls ASP.NET Ajax Server controls User controls and custom controls
Introduction to ASP.NET : Controls

ASP.NET provides a way to work with HTML Server controls on the server side; programming with a set of controls collectively is called HTML Controls.
These controls are grouped together in the Visual Studio Toolbox in the HTML Control tab. The markup of the controls are similar to the HTML control
These controls are basically the original HTML controls but enhanced to enable server side processing
HTML elements in ASP. NET files are, by default, treated as text. To make these elements programmable, add a runat="server" attribute to the HTML element. This attribute indicates that the element should be treated as a server controlFor Eg: <input type=“text” size=“20” id=“txtName” runat=“Server” />

Server controls are special ASP. NET tags understood by the server Like HTML server controls, Web server controls are also created on the server and they
require a runat="server" attribute to work However, Web server controls do not necessarily map to any existing HTML elements and
they may represent more complex elements Mostly all Web Server controls inherit from a common base class, namely the WebControl
class defined in the System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace Example of a server control:
<asp:TextBox ID=“txtName” runat=“server” />

Validation is the method of scrutinizing (observing) that the user has entered the correct values in input fields
Used to validate the data of an input control. If the data doesn’t pass validation, it will display an error In ASP. NET you can use ASP. NET Validation Controls while creating the form and specify what ASP. NET
Validation Controls to use and to which server control to bind this Validation Controls are derived from a common base class and share a common set of properties and
methods. Drag and drop the ASP. NET Validation Control in the web form and write one line of code to describe its
functionality Validation Controls in ASP.NET: CompareValidator, CustomValidator, RangeValidator,
RegularExpressionValidator, RequiredFieldValidator, ValidationSummary Example of validation control :
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID=“rfvName” runat=“server” ControlToValidate=“txtName” ErrorMessage=“Name is required”/>

ASP.NET allows the users to create controls. These user defined controls are categorized into: User controls Custom controls
User Controls User controls behaves like miniature ASP.NET pages or web forms, which could be used by many other pages. These are
derived from the System.Web.UI.UserControl class. These controls have the following characteristics: They have an .ascx extension They may not contain any <html>, <body>, or <form> tags They have a Control directive instead of a Page directive
Example: Declaration of custom controls <%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="footer.ascx.cs" Inherits="customcontroldemo.footer" %>
Implementation:On top of the page, have to register the control as follows:<%@ Register Src="~/footer.ascx" TagName="footer" TagPrefix="Tfooter" %>Following is the tag declaration for showing the user control<Tfooter:footer ID="footer1" runat="server" />

Custom controlsCustom controls are deployed as individual assemblies. They are compiled into a Dynamic Link
Library (DLL) and used as any other ASP.NET server control. They could be created in either of the following way:
By deriving a custom control from an existing control By composing a new custom control combing two or more existing controls By deriving from the base control class
Example of using a Custom Control<%@ Register Assembly="CustomControls" Namespace="CustomControls" TagPrefix="ccs" %>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<ccs:ServerControl1 runat="server" Text = "I am a Custom Server Control" />
</div>
</form>

Introduction to ASP.NET : Page life cycle
The page life cycle phases are:• Page request - The page request occurs before the page life cycle begins. When the page is requested by a user, ASP.NET
determines whether the page needs to be parsed and compiled (therefore beginning the life of a page)• Start - In the start stage, page properties such as Request and Response are set. At this stage, the page also determines
whether the request is a postback or a new request and sets the IsPostBack property. The page also sets the UICulture property
• Initialization - During page initialization, controls on the page are available and each control's UniqueID property is set. A master page and themes are also applied to the page if applicable
• Load - During load, if the current request is a postback, control properties are loaded with information recovered from view state and control state
• Postback event handling - If the request is a postback, control event handlers are called. After that, the Validate method of all validator controls is called, which sets the IsValid property of individual validator controls and of the page
• Rendering - Before rendering, view state is saved for the page and all controls. During the rendering stage, the page calls the Render method for each control, providing a text writer that writes its output to the OutputStream object of the page's Response property
• Unload - The Unload event is raised after the page has been fully rendered, sent to the client, and is ready to be discarded. At this point, page properties such as Response and Request are unloaded and cleanup is performed

Following are the page life cycle events:• PreInit - Raised after the start stage is complete and before the initialization stage begins• Init - Raised after all controls have been initialized and any skin settings have been applied• InitComplete - Raised at the end of the page's initialization stage. Only one operation takes place between the Init and InitComplete
events• PreLoad - Raised after the page loads view state for itself and all controls, and after it processes postback data that is included with
the Request instance• Load - The Page object calls the OnLoad method on the Page object, and then recursively does the same for each child control until
the page and all controls are loaded• LoadComplete - Raised at the end of the event-handling stage• PreRender - Raised after the Page object has created all controls that are required in order to render the page, including child
controls of composite controls• PreRenderComplete - Raised after each data bound control whose DataSourceID property is set calls its DataBind method• SaveStateComplete - Raised after view state and control state have been saved for the page and for all controls. Any changes to the
page or controls at this point affect rendering, but the changes will not be retrieved on the next postback• Render - This is not an event; instead, at this stage of processing, the Page object calls this method on each control• UnLoad - Raised for each control and then for the page

A new instance of the Web page class is created each time the page is posted to the server. In traditional Web programming, this would typically mean that all information associated with the page and the controls on the page would be lost with each round trip
For example, if a user enters information into a text box, that information would be lost in the round trip from the browser or client device to the server
To overcome this inherent limitation of traditional Web programming, ASP.NET includes several options that help preserves data on both a per-page basis and an application-wide basis
These features are as follows: View state Control state Hidden fields Cookies Query strings Application state Session state Profile Properties

View State - Provides a dictionary object for retaining values between multiple requests for the same page. This is the default method that the page uses to preserve page and control property values between round trips
Control State - It allows to persist property information that is specific to a control and cannot be turned off like the ViewState property
Hidden Fields - ASP.NET allows to store information in a HiddenField control, which renders as a standard HTML hidden field. A hidden field does not render visibly in the browser
Cookies - Small amount of data that is stored either in a text file on the client file system or in-memory in the client browser session. Cookies can be temporary (with specific expiration times and dates) or persistent
Query Strings - It is information that is appended to the end of a page URL. A typical query string might look like the following example: http://www.Example.com/stateManagement.aspx?q1=basic&q2=100

Application State Global storage mechanism that is accessible from all pages in the Web application Used for storing information that needs to be maintained between server round trips and between requests for pages
Session State Similar to application state, except that it is scoped to the current browser session. If different users are using your
application, each user session will have a different session state In addition, if a user leaves your application and then returns later, the second user session will have a different
session state from the first Profile Properties
Store user-specific data. This feature is similar to session state, except that the profile data is not lost when a user's session expires
This feature uses an ASP.NET profile, which is stored in a persistent format and associated with an individual user. The ASP.NET profile allows you to easily manage user information without requiring you to create and maintain your own database.
