Session End on Browser Close or Tab Close or Moving out of the site


I have seen lots of post in the forum asking about kill session on close of browser or tab or moving out of the site.

We can kill session on any of the following case mentioned above using Ajax Callback with Javascript.
Here are the steps to follow:

Step 1: Add ScriptManager in the aspx page
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="true">
Step 2: Add onuload in body tag which will call BrowserClose method in Javascript.
<body onunload="BrowserClose()">
Step 3: Now add javascript method of BrowserClose which will call KillSession method of code behind
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function BrowserClose()
{
   PageMethods.KillSession();
}

<script>
Step 4: In code behind file, KillSession method will contain the Session.Abandon which will abandon the session.
KillSession method has to be signatured with WebMethod.
Make the KillSession method static
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod()]
public static void KillSession()
{
   HttpContext.Current.Session.Abandon();
}

Step 5 : The code which needs to be executed on should be placed in Session_End method of Global.asax.cs
protected void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   //Code to execute on Session End
}

GRIDVIEW GROUPING

When displaying data, we sometimes would like to group data for better user experience or when displaying long list of hierarchal data, we would want to display them in a tree view kind of structure. There is more than way of doing this, but I am going to explain achieving this functionality using  AJAX Collapsible Panel Extender Control . Overview: I am going to use  Adventure Works  as datasource. Every product in  Production.Product  table belongs to a product sub category. We fetch handful of products and the sub categories they belong to from the database. Our objective is to list all the available sub categories and allow user to  expand/collapse  to look/hide the list of products belonging to each subcategory. Database Connection Added following entry under  connectionStrings  element in  web.config . < add   name = "Sql"   connectionString="Data Source=(local); Initial  Catalog = AdventureWorks ...

GRIDVIEW ZOOM IMAGE

When you have images in your  GridView , you would most likely show them as thumbnails so as to not distort the whole layout. However user would want to look at the full image by clicking on the image or just hovering his mouse over it. In today’s applications, this is a basic requirement and there are just so many third party controls or plugins which would support this functionality. I am going do this conventional way using  javascript  way in this article.  On top of it, I am also going to explain how to get images from database using  HttpHandlers . Example: I am using  Adventure Works  as datasource. We fetch handful of products and bind them to the grid. When page is initially loaded, we retrieve products from Production . Product  table and bind them to the grid. We display some product attributes such as Product ID, Product Number, Product Name, List Price and product’s thumbnail. When user hover his mouse on the page, we fetch the f...
