Display animated gif before Iframe content is loaded

Display animated gif before Iframe content is loaded

 If you are working with iframe in which the content takes time to load, you may want to display a simple loading indicator to the end users instead of letting the users see a blank screen in the page. To do this, here's one way on how to implemet it using javascript. 


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
       function hideLoading() {
            document.getElementById('divLoading').style.display = "none";
            document.getElementById('divFrameHolder').style.display = "block";
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div id="divLoading">
        <img src="ajax-loader.gif" alt="" />
    </div>
    <div id="divFrameHolder" style="display:none">
        <iframe src="http://asp.net" onload="hideLoading()" frameborder="1" scrolling="no">
      
        </iframe>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

What happened in the code above is we hide the container of Iframe (divFrameHolder) by setting the style to *display:none*. This is to ensure that the Iframe will not be seen if its content is not yet loaded on load of the page and instead show the animated gif (loading indicator). We then call the javascript method *hideLoading()* at onload event of Iframe to hide the animated gif when the content of the iframe is loaded.

Authentication ASP.NET_SessionId (Session) along with AuthToken (GUID) cookie

Authentication ASP.NET_SessionID (Session) along with AuthToken (GUID) cookie Introduction ASP.NET Session keeps track of the user by creating a cookie called  ASP.NET_SessionId  in the user browser. This cookie value is checked for every request to ensure that the data being served is specific to that user. In many applications, a Session variable is used to track the logged in user, i.e., if a session variable exists for that user, then the user is logged in, otherwise not. Background Whenever any data is saved into the Session, the  ASP.NET_SessionId  cookie is created in the user’s browser. Even if the user has logged out (means the Session data has been removed by calling the  Session.Abandon() or  Session.RemoveAll()  or  Session.Clear()  method), this  ASP.NET_SessionId  cookie and its value is not deleted from the user browser. This legitimate cookie value can be used by the hijacker to hijack the user session by g...

C# HttpClient tutorial C# HttpClient tutorial shows how to create HTTP requests with HttpClient in C#. In the examples, we create simple GET and POST requests. The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web. HttpClient  is a base class for sending HTTP requests and receiving HTTP responses from a resource identified by a URI. C# HttpClient status code HTTP response status codes indicate whether a specific HTTP request has been successfully completed. Responses are grouped in five classes: Informational responses (100–199) Successful responses (200–299) Redirects (300–399) Client errors (400–499) Server errors (500–599) Program.cs using System; using System.Net.Http; using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace HttpClientStatus { class Program { static async Task Main(string[] args) { using var client =...
