Today, I would like to share a quick and easy solution to link 2 list boxes with jQuery and AJAX.
Situation: we have two list boxes. One (number) is already populated. The second (letter) is populated according to what is selected on the first list box, via AJAX (not reloading the page).
We need to build two ASP pages.
Let's start and have fun!

jQuery & ASP: creating a "more" button with AJAX (part 2)
Tweet
As explained in my previous post, today we are going to create the page needed to update our names list, when the "more" button is pressed.
I believe you followed me in the previous article. If not, please read it before continuing, because otherwise you won't understand what I'm writing here.

Creating the more.asp page
As said, we now need to create the more.asp document. In this page we will get the updates for our list and pass them to the AJAX request. The more_updates div will be changed and a new "more" button created, if the end of the recordset is not already reached.Wednesday, 28 September 2011
jQuery & ASP: creating a "more" button with AJAX (part 1)
Tweet
On many web sites, we can see lists of news, updates, notifications and similiar elements with a "more" button. That button will add elements to the list when pressed. I believe you saw something similar, used especially on Social Networks like Facebook or Twitter.
In the following article we will create a "more" button using jQuery and getting the list of elements from a database, using ASP. The project has two ASP pages, one containing the list and the jQuery code (AJAX), and the second with the code needed to update the list.
Let's start building the first page.

jQuery: AJAX and lightbox effect combined
Tweet
What I'm going to show you how to use AJAX technology to get content for a container and use a lightbox effect to show it.
What we want is to populate a target container upon user request with an external page as source. Then we are going to show the fetched content with a lightbox effect (putting the requested content on top of everything).
We can use jQuery to manage all the operation in a quite simple way.
Let's get directly to the code and I will explain everything.

jQuery: BlockUI Plugin
Tweet
I recently needed to use AJAX requests and make the user aware of the fact that something was happening. If we use the classic XMLHttpRequest object in synchronous mode the entire web interface will freeze until the request is completed. You may understand that the user might be confused on what is going on in background, so we need to display simple and effective messages, explaining that the request is actually being sent and processed.

If you need to effectively present your reports to the boss, using information fetched from your database, jQuery might provide a good and easy way to do it. You can actually use jQuery directly and follow the online tutorials you can find googling, or use some ready-made plugins. Here you can find some of those plugins.

Following my "ASP: Scripting.FileSystemObject... how to move, copy and delete a file or a folder" post I think that implementing a file management system for example on an Intranet, could be interesting indeed. In the mentioned post, I explained how to manipulate files already uploaded on the server. Now you could ask how to develop an upload system... so here we are.

jQuery: the magic wand
Tweet
I don't like CMSs. Well, I must admit: I really hate CMSs. I'm stating that just because I do like programming my own web site with complete freedom. And CMSs - even if they claim to be complete or complicated - are usually too tight for my needs.
Even though that is always true and I won't change my mind in the future, I do believe that sometimes programming everything in a web site is very hard and time consuming. So a little help - with complete freedom and customization - is welcome.
jQuery has nothing to do with CMSs
