This small web application has following features:

  1. Auto suggest list box [AutoList.js]
  2. Auto select text.
  3. Scrolling list item either one by one or on the basis of defined page size.
  4. Multicolor list item.
  5. Getting result in the xml form directly from SQL Server using 'FOR XML' and to process it to populate list box or to send back to client.
  6. Client side population of list box from xml.
  7. Getting result in xml form by using callback function (AJAX).
  8. Client side XML transformation using XSLT.
  9. Client side wait/process message while processing data [ProcessMonitor.js].

Function to read xml result using ExecuteXmlReader :

public void ExecuteReaderGetXmlDoc(string p_strSPName, SqlParameter[] p_arrSqlParams, ref XmlDocument p_xmlDoc)

{

SqlCommand l_objCommand;

StringBuilder l_objStrBuilder;

XmlReader l_objXmlReader;

try

{

if (this.OpenConnection())

{

l_objCommand = new SqlCommand();

l_objCommand.Connection = _objConnection;

l_objCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

l_objCommand.CommandText = p_strSPName;

if (p_arrSqlParams != null)

{

this.AddCommandParameter(p_arrSqlParams, ref l_objCommand);

}

l_objXmlReader = (XmlReader)l_objCommand.ExecuteXmlReader();

l_objXmlReader.Read();

l_objStrBuilder = new StringBuilder();

// add root node

l_objStrBuilder.Append("<Root>");

while (l_objXmlReader.ReadState != ReadState.EndOfFile)

{

// append xmlNode

l_objStrBuilder.Append(l_objXmlReader.ReadOuterXml());

}

// close root node

l_objStrBuilder.Append("</Root>");

p_xmlDoc.LoadXml(l_objStrBuilder.ToString());

}

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

throw ex;

}

finally

{

l_objCommand = null;

this.CloseConnection();

this._objConnection = null;

}

}

Function to populate list from xml [ Code behind ] :

private void PopulateCategoriesList(XmlNodeList p_xmlCategoryNodeList, XmlDocument p_xmlDoc)

{

ListItem l_objListItem;

int i = 0;

try

{

foreach (XmlNode categoryNode in p_xmlCategoryNodeList)

{

l_objListItem = new ListItem();

l_objListItem.Value = categoryNode.Attributes.Item(0).Value;

l_objListItem.Text = categoryNode.Attributes.Item(1).Value;

// set item color

if (i % 2 == 0)

{

l_objListItem.Attributes.Add("class", "ListItem");

}

else

{

l_objListItem.Attributes.Add("class", "ListAltItem");

}

lstCategory.Items.Add(l_objListItem);

i += 1;

// remove categoryNode

p_xmlDoc.DocumentElement.RemoveChild(categoryNode);

}

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

throw ex;

}

}

Function to populate list from xml [ Client Side ] :

if(this.XmlNodeList == null)

{

alert("NodeList not assigned");

return false;

}

var nodeListLength = this.XmlNodeList.length;

this.ListCtrl.options.length = 0;

for(var i=0; i<nodeListLength; i++)

{

var objListItem = document.createElement("option") ;

objListItem.value = this.XmlNodeList.item(i).attributes(1).text;

objListItem.text = this.XmlNodeList.item(i).attributes(2).text;

// set item color

if (i%2 == 0)

{

objListItem.style.background = this.ITEM_COLOR;

}

else

{

objListItem.style.background = this.ALT_ITEM_COLOR;

}

this.ListCtrl.add(objListItem);

}

this.ListCtrl.selectedIndex = -1;

Getting result from code behind function using AJAX :

function getProductOrders(p_intProductId)

{

try

{

if(p_intProductId != "")

{

// call displayProcess() before calling send() of XmlHTTP

Message.displayProcess("Searching orders ");

var strURL = "Demo.aspx?IsCallback=1&ProductId=" + p_intProductId;

this.xmlhttp.Open("POST",strURL, false);

this.xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=process_OrdersResult;

this.xmlhttp.send(null);

}

else

{

Message.display("Please select product !");

return false;

}

}

catch(e)

{

alert("Error in getProductOrders() : " + e.message);

}

}

Transform xml data using XSLT :

function transformXmlDoc()

{

try

{

document.getElementById("tdOrderList").innerHTML = this.xmlProductOrderDoc.transformNode(this.xslOrderDoc);

}


catch(e)

{

alert("Error in transformXmlDoc() : " + e.message);

}

}

Checking callback on Pageload :

if (!Page.IsPostBack && !IsCallback )

{

GetAllCategories();

}

else if (IsCallback)

{

int productId = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["ProductId"]);

GetProductOrdersDetail(productId);

}

Return result back to the client in xml form :

Response.Clear();

Response.ContentType = "text/xml";

if (l_objXmlDoc.SelectNodes("//Orders").Count > 0 )

{

Response.Write(l_objXmlDoc.OuterXml);

}

else

{

Response.Write("<Root></Root>");

}

Response.End();
