Web.config

[swallace]

Could you post a quick example Web.config that shows where the changes for ScriptManager would go? Thanks.

Hi swallace,

Sure thing. The Ajaxian/ExtJS blog posts caught us a bit off guard. We were hoping to have one more day to complete a few of the critical tutorials. I'll have a full Web.config Example/tutorial available within the next few hours.

Hi swallace,

The following code demonstrates where to add the global "coolite" configSection to the Web.config. Each of the properties/attributes are listed with a bit of description, optional values and default values.</p>

<?xml version="1.0"?></p>

<configuration>
*** <configSections>
***** <section name="coolite" type="Coolite.Ext.Web.GlobalConfig"/>
*** </configSections></p>

* <!-- COOLITE GLOBAL CONFIGURATION ATTRIBUTES -->
* <!-- cleanResourceUrl = true|false 
****** The Coolite controls can clean up the autogenerate WebResource Url so they look presentable. 
****** Default is true -->
* 
* <!-- gzip = true|false 
****** Whether to automatically render scripts with gzip compression. 
****** Default is true. -->
* 
* <!-- scriptAdapter = Ext, jQuery, Prototype, YUI 
****** Which script adapter to use. 
****** Default is "Ext" -->
* 
* <!-- renderScripts = true|false 
****** Whether to have the coolite controls output the required JavaScript includes or not.
****** Gives developer option of manually including required <script> files. 
****** Default is true -->
* 
* <!-- renderStyles = true|false 
****** Whether to have the coolite controls output the required StyleSheet includes or not.
****** Gives developer option of manually including required <link>/<style> files.
****** Default is true -->
* 
* <!-- scriptMode = Release, Debug 
****** Whether to include the Release (condensed) or Debug (with documentation) JavaScript files
****** Default is "release" -->
* 
* <!-- theme = Default, Gray 
****** Which embedded theme to use.
****** Default is "Default" --></p>

* <coolite
*** cleanResourceUrl="true"
*** gzip="true"
*** scriptAdapter="Ext" 
*** renderScripts="true"
*** renderStyles="true"
*** scriptMode="Release"
*** theme="Gray"
*** /></p>

</configuration>

</p>

The Theme can also be set at a Session level by using the ScriptManager.RegisterSessionTheme() method or directly by setting the "Coolite.Theme" Session value. Setting the Theme in the Session will override a Theme set in the Web.config. </p>

Example</p>

<script runat="server">
*** protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
*** {
******* Coolite.Web.UI.ScriptManager.RegisterSessionTheme(Coolite.Web.UI.Theme.Gray);
*** }
</script>

<script runat="server">
*** protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
*** {
******* HttpContext.Current.Session["Coolite.Theme"] = Coolite.Web.UI.Theme.Gray;
*** }
</script>

</p>


I have a detailed tutorial and screencast in the works, but they're not quite done. I'll update this thread once they're ready.</p>

Hope this helps.</p>

Perfect, thanks!

Looks like the sample is from an earlier/later version than the 0.3.1.12579 that I'm using.

Here's a change that makes it work:

renderScripts="Embedded"
renderStyles="Embedded"

As given, the example produces the error:

The value of the property 'renderScripts' cannot be parsed. The error is: The enumeration value must be one of the following: None, File, Embedded.

[geoffrey.mcgill]

Right you are regarding the renderScripts and renderStyles properties. That was my mistake. Both take a ResourceLocationType Enum value with possible options being Embedded, File or None.

Here's the updated Web.config sample.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<configuration>
    <configSections>
      <section name="coolite" type="Coolite.Web.UI.GlobalConfig"/>
    </configSections>

  <!-- COOLITE GLOBAL CONFIGURATION ATTRIBUTES -->
  <!-- cleanResourceUrl = true|false 
       The Coolite controls can clean up the autogenerate WebResource Url so they look presentable. 
       Default is true -->
  
  <!-- gzip = true|false 
       Whether to automatically render scripts with gzip compression. 
       Only works when renderScripts="Embedded" and/or renderStyles="Embedded".
       Default is true. -->
  
  <!-- scriptAdapter = Ext, jQuery, Prototype, YUI 
       Which script adapter to use. 
       Default is "Ext" -->
  
  <!-- renderScripts = Embedded, File, None
       Whether to have the coolite controls output the required JavaScript includes or not.
       Gives developer option of manually including required <script> files. 
       Default is Embedded -->
  
  <!-- renderStyles = Embedded, File, None
       Whether to have the coolite controls output the required StyleSheet includes or not.
       Gives developer option of manually including required <link> or <style> files.
       Default is Embedded -->
  
  <!-- scriptMode = Release, Debug 
       Whether to include the Release (condensed) or Debug (with imline documentation) Ext JavaScript files.
       Default is "Release" -->
  
  <!-- theme = Default, Gray 
       Which embedded theme to use.
       Default is "Default" -->

  <coolite
    cleanResourceUrl="true"
    gzip="true"
    scriptAdapter="Ext" 
    renderScripts="true"
    renderStyles="true"
    scriptMode="Release"
    theme="Gray"
    />

</configuration>

Hope this helps.

We found a couple problems when running the Assembly in Medium Trust mode. One was fixed in code and will be available with the next release. The other requires a simple edit to the web.config.

The <code>requirePermission="false"</code> attribute must be applied to the coolite configuration section.

Here's the full revised web.config sample.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
* <configSections>
*** <section name="coolite" type="Coolite.Ext.Web.GlobalConfig" requirePermission="false" />
* </configSections>
* <!-- COOLITE GLOBAL CONFIGURATION ATTRIBUTES -->
* <!-- cleanResourceUrl = true|false******* 
****** The Coolite controls can clean up the autogenerate WebResource Url so they look presentable.******* 
****** Default is true -->
* 
* <!-- gzip = true|false******* 
****** Whether to automatically render scripts with gzip compression.******* 
****** Only works when renderScripts="Embedded" and/or renderStyles="Embedded".****** 
****** Default is true. -->
* 
* <!-- scriptAdapter = Ext|jQuery|Prototype|YUI******* 
****** Which script adapter to use.******* 
****** Default is "Ext" -->
* 
* <!-- renderScripts = Embedded|File|None****** 
****** Whether to have the coolite controls output the required JavaScript includes or not.****** 
****** Gives developer option of manually including required <script> files.******* 
****** Default is Embedded -->
* 
* <!-- renderStyles = Embedded|File|None****** 
****** Whether to have the coolite controls output the required StyleSheet includes or not.****** 
****** Gives developer option of manually including required <link> or <style> files.****** 
****** Default is Embedded -->
* 
* <!-- scriptMode = Release|Debug******* 
****** Whether to include the Release (condensed) or Debug (with inline documentation) Ext JavaScript files.****** 
****** Default is "Release" -->
* 
* <!-- theme = Default|Gray******* 
****** Which embedded theme to use.****** 
****** Default is "Default" -->
* 
* <coolite*** 
***** cleanResourceUrl="true"*** 
***** gzip="true"*** 
***** scriptAdapter="Ext"**** 
***** renderScripts="true"*** 
***** renderStyles="true"*** 
***** scriptMode="Release"*** 
***** theme="Gray"*** 
***** />
</configuration>

You can switch into Medium Trust mode to test by adding adding the following <trust> node to your web.config, within the <system.web> node.

<system.web>
*** <trust level="Medium" />
</system.web>

As of version 0.4.1, we've added several other options for setting each of these global config properties. The following forum post details each of the four methods.

As well, a new global config property called ResourcePath was added. More information available within the following forum post.

hi,geoffrey

How to change the custom theme by Ajax methods or Ajax events?

[geoffrey.mcgill]

Hi jachnicky,

It's probably best to start a new thread since your question is a new topic. thx.
