ASP.Net: Printing raw xml .

I was trying to print a raw xml string. Browser was omitting the xml tags at the time of display. Then I searched through the internet and found that ASP.Net has a pretty cool widget named Literal. Using this widget, it is very simple to print xml string without the xml tags omitted by the browser. Here is an example code snippet:

1) Add the literal object.

2) Then just use this literal object like a label:

Literal1.Text = XMLString;

Is not it cool!!!

ASP.net : Post data to another page programmatically without a form submit button.

I was working on a project where I had to pass some value securely to a php script from an ASP.NET page. I found that .NET web request and web response class is there to do this task. Here is the MSDN provided tutorial on how to use these two classes to sent the data through post method and get the response.

In the receiving page, I need to write the data through Response.write (for ASP.net) or echo(for php). The response is automatically sent to the requesting page.

Is not it cool!!

We really do not want to validate in the server side because it makes the server busy.
So a good approach is to validate in the client side using javascript. Here is a good tutorial that does it:

Javascript: split method can be used to split based on string or regular expression.

If you want to split a string based on another string, this how you do it:

If you want to split a string based on a reges, this how you do it:
str.split(/\s/);

\s is a reges which is used for any space character like space,\n,\t or \r.
