PowerWEB  LiveControls  for .NET

Here you will find examples of a few of the many things you can do with PowerWEB LiveControls. Notice that the color changes in the LiveControls label above are driven by the LiveTimer and the colors are set on the server.

Sample Name / Description

LiveProgress This sample demonstrates how to use LivePanels to make a progress bar. Progress is simulated using a LiveTimer. To test it simply set 'Timer Interval' and 'Increment', then press 'Start' button. To cancel, press the 'Stop' button. 'Timer Interval' sets the interval in milliseconds for the LiveTimer. 'Increment' sets the number of pixels the panel should move on each tick of the LiveTimer. The timer is raising a the LiveTimer1_Tick event on the server at every interval and executing the code. This sample also demonstrates the use of the LiveSound control so you may want to turn up your speakers if they are not on!

LiveSlideShow This sample demonstrates the ability to change images from the server without a refresh. When a button is clicked, the Click event for the particular LiveButton is raised on the server and an image is specified for the LiveImage control. When the slideshow is playing, the LiveTimer raises a Tick event which sets a new image for the LiveImage control.

LiveAuction Uses LiveTimer, LiveImageButton, LiveMessageBox to simulate the last 2 minutes of an online auction. Watch the current price change in real time!

LiveShoppingCart This sample uses the most LiveControls of all the samples. A LiveList contains the current items in a "shopping cart". Items are added and deleted from the cart without ever doing a refresh.

LiveComparison This sample demonstrates the benefits of using LiveControls by comparing two identical sites, one that contains all standard web controls, the other containing the "Live" equivalents.
