farshad Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 Hi, It will be helpful to get your ideas on the following: I am supposed to start a project which will basically involve doing a search and then drill down into that search and then further drill down into that second search. My thoughts are using a TreeView control in vb.net using windows application. So, should I do this in windows or should I do this project in asp.net using vb.net? I believe using a TreeView in asp.net is not easy. what do u think? if u recommend doing this project in asp.net, then what shall I use as an alternative to the treeview control, i.e. several datagrids, etc...? Thanks guys Quote Farshad
davidrobin Posted August 13, 2003 Posted August 13, 2003 I did something similar using ASP without extra controls, The way I did it was to have seperate screens for each drill down like so. Student > subjects > enrolled students > student Then you can go round in circles. you can start from any point. subject > students > registers > students each item that can be drilled down from was a HTML link and the post method of the HTML form was used to call the next ASP page. I manipulated the browser history using javascript and put a link on the asp page so people could go backwards through the pages they had looked at and at any point fork off to another route. Worked for me anyway. Quote
