viewstate

I'm tired of including EnableViewStateMac="false" in every page. How to do that globally? You can disable it on the <pages> element in the web.config , like this: <configuration> <system.web> <pages enableViewStateMac="False" /> </system.web> </configuration> The answer above explain to you how to set it in the Web.Config, but look at MSDN and you will see what it says here : This attribute should never be set to false in a production Web site, even if the application or page does not use view state. The view state MAC helps ensure the security of other ASP.NET functions in addition to view

What are the latest and greatest ways to move ViewState to bottom of the page Can this be done in a IHttpHandler that can be specified in the web.config to intercept requests to "*.aspx"? <httpHandlers> <add verb="*" path="*.aspx" type="MyApp.OptimizedPageHandler" /> <httpHandlers> Other options is that this could be done in a IHttpModule , but that is not as performant , as it will intercept all requests. Also it could be done in an a class deriving from the Page or MasterPage -class, but this is not as modular . Are there any performance penalties to this? You can control how and where

I want to keep viewstate of a specific page in session but following code block does not help me, what might I be missing? So here is the code-behind file content of my page; public partial class ConfigurationEditorWebForm : PageBase { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { } protected override bool VerifyAccess() { return true; } protected override PageStatePersister PageStatePersister { get { return new SessionPageStatePersister(this); } } } Note that even after you move the page state to view state, you will still see a __Viewstate element on your pages. Also, I believe that

I keep on hearing this words "Viewstate Chunking". What is Viewstate Chunking? And how it is working for ASP.NET pages? kril When the ViewState in your page becomes very large it can be a problem since some firewalls and proxies will prevent access to pages containing huge ViewState sizes. For this purpose ASP.NET introduces the ViewState Chunking mechanism. So ASP.NET enables splitting of the ViewState's single hidden field into several using the MaxPageStateFieldLength property in the web.config section. When the MaxPageStateFieldLength property is set to a positive number, the view state

I'm using the ASP.NET 3.5 SP1 System.Web.Routing with classic WebForms, as described in http://chriscavanagh.wordpress.com/2008/04/25/systemwebrouting-with-webforms-sample/ All works fine , I have custom SEO urls and even the postback works. But there is a case where the postback always fails and I get a: Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster. Here is the scenario to reproduce the error: Create a standard webform

I am trying to access view-state in client side but following exception coming : JAVASCRIPT: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> var vCode = '<%=ViewState("code")%>'; alert(dateView); </script> CODE BEHIND: Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load ViewState("code") = "EE" End Sub Anybody suggest me how to do it? I would suggests to use RegisterHiddenField than mixing server/js codes: You may try this sample: Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load ViewState("code") = "EE"
