I'm still new to all of this - mostly vb.net using vs 2005, so I might not
be using good terminology but let me give my question a try:
I'm looking for someone to point me in the correct direction by giving me
the phrase or terminology I need to look up the specifics myself.
I just don't know where to start.
Here is task -
On a web page, I need to switch between two images when the user clicks the
image. A few more details include the fact that I would like this to work
similar to a set of radio buttons where clicking on one of several images
changes the one clicked (let's say to green) and the others to a reset value
(let's say to red). I can do this fine using what I know now by using an
imagebutton and swaping its imageurl property and a bit of code.
My question is whether there is a relatively practical way of converting
this functionality into something that would run on the client side, rather
than cause a postback to the server on each click. ...and do to this
without javascript. In other words, I want to have the ability to have this
work even on browsers that won't run javascript.
The idea would be to have the user make a selection of one of several of
these buttons/images and only after the user was completely finished would
they hit a submit button that would return to the server an integer
representing which one was selected. ...essentially a fancy radiobuttonlist .
....but perhaps there is a way to use the existing radiobuttonlist code and
swap in images?
If I understand correctly, there is the ability to create what I think is
called a new class, but I'm not sure whether I'm correct about this, and
whether this type of thing requires javascript or something else that won't
run on all browsers. I don't mind reading about how to accomplish this type
of thing, but I have no idea how difficult it is, nor whether it would
accomplish what I'm after.
....any pointers appreciated.
Jeff
