Hello Imar,

in the AddEditReview.aspx, if the insert / update operation is successful, the user is redirect straight away to Reviews.aspx.

I would like to inform the user that the insert /update operation was successful.

How could I do that ?
A client side alert as soon as the Review.aspx page is loaded is a viable solution ?
Are there other options ?

Thank you

Hi Antonius,

Take a look at RegisterStartupScript: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...vs.110%29.aspx

You could call that method when there's some value (like the ID of the new review) in the query string (which you'll need to pass to Reviews.aspx from AddEditReview.aspx).

Hope this helps,

Imar

The problem is that I don't know how to pass the Title of the inserted / updated review to Reviews.aspx in the EndEditing() method (page 489).
I tried many solutions. For instance:

Code:

private void EndEditing()
{
      Response.Redirect("Reviews.aspx?Title=" + "<%# Bind('Title') %>"); 
}

and

Code:

private void EndEditing()
{
      Response.Redirect( String.Format("Reviews.aspx?Title={0};", Eval("Title") ));
}

How can I retrieve the title of the inserted / updated review from the code behind file ?

Thank you

You'll need to dig into e.Values / e.NewValues of the various event handlers that call the EndEditing method as they contain the data.

This gets a lot easier when hand coding the data access; Chapter 15, exercise 2 shows how to do this.

Cheers,
