Help with VS/C# timer class. I need to force a page submit during a quiz...
I'm having a slight problem with timing out a user. The basics of it is
that its a quiz application. The user has a set amount of time to
answer the questions, once the time limit has expired, the page has to
be submitted for evaluation whether the user is finished or not.
The
problem is that on the timeout it doesnt recognize the radio buttons as
actually being selected, and then it throws an unhandled exception
error. And server.transfer() and response.redirect() fail as well. The
page works fine if the actual submit button is clicked though. Can
anyone tell me whats wrong with this page? This event fires every 2
minutes and the page breaks on it. Also MessageLine (a label to display
feedback) doesnt show anything either.
private void Countdown_Tick(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int TimeRemainning = int.Parse(Session["TimeRemainning"].ToString());
TimeRemainning--;
Session["TimeRemainning"] = TimeRemainning;
if (TimeRemainning <= 0)
{
Countdown.Stop();
//Server.Transfer("ModuleSelection.aspx", true);
//Response.Redirect("ModuleSelection.aspx");
//HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("FinalAssessment.aspx");
HttpContext.Current.Server.Transfer("FinalAssessment.aspx", true);
}
MessageLine.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();
}
Oh and these are the errors that pop up for Server.Transfer, Response.Redirect and HttpContext respectively.
{"Error executing child request for ModuleSelection.aspx."}
{"Response is not available in this context."}
{"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."}
