Question 1

is part of the .NET infrastructure that provides a programming model and various services that are necessary to build up web applications.

Answer 1

ASP .NET Web Forms

Question 2

What is the main benefit of ASP .NET Web Forms?

Answer 2

the level of abstraction that it provides compared to the request/response approach and the creation of the HTML that is sent to the client

Question 3

The response to change in the page content is enhanced through the use of

Answer 3

ViewState

Question 4

is how ASP.NET Web Forms take this customized approach and transfer state information between the browser and the server

Answer 4

ViewState

Question 5

allows the developer to interact with information at various points in the HTML creation phase

Answer 5

ASP.NET lifecycle

Question 6

What are the seven (7) lifecycle stages?

Answer 6

1. Page Request
2. Start
3. Initialization
4. Load
5. Postback Event Handling
6. Rendering
7. Unload

Question 7

This state happens before the page-calling process starts. It is when the system determines whether run-time compilation is necessary, whether cached output can be returned, or whether a compiled page needs to be run.

Answer 7

Page Request

Question 8

The page starts to do some processing on the HTTP Request. Some base variables are initialized, such as Request, Response, and the UICulture

Answer 8

Start

Question 9

During this phase, the controls on the page are initialized and assigned their unique IDs. Master pages and themes are applied as applicable

Answer 9

Initialization

Question 10

If the request is a postback, control information is loaded with the information recovered from the view state

Answer 10

Load

Question 11

If the request is a postback, all the various controls fire their event handlers as needed. Validation also happens at this time.

Answer 11

Postback Event Handling

Question 12

Before the rendering state starts, ViewState is saved for the page and all of the controls as configured.

Answer 12

Rendering

Question 13

This happens after the content is created and sent to the client. Objects are unloaded from memory and cleanup happens.

Answer 13

Unload

Question 14

Raised after the start state is complete and before the initialization state begins

Answer 14

PreInit

Question 15

This event is raised after all the controls have been initialized. It is used to initialize control properties

Answer 15

Init

Question 16

Only one thing happens between Init and InitComplete, and that is the enabling of view state for the controls.

Changes in this event and after will impact viewstate to make sure it will be available next postback.

Answer 16

InitComplete

Question 17

Raised after the page manages the view state information for itself and all controls

Answer 17

PreLoad

Question 18

The OnLoad method is called in a page, which then recursively calls the same method on every control

Answer 18

Load

Question 19

These are specific control-based events, such as the Click of a button, or TextChanged on a text box.

Answer 19

Control Events

Question 20

This event is raised after all the event handling has occured

Answer 20

LoadComplete

Question 21

After all the controls have been loaded, the Page object starts its prerender phase

Answer 21

PreRender

Question 22

Raised after every data-bound control has been bound

Answer 22

PreRenderComplete

Question 23

Raised after the view state and control state have been saved for the page and for all controls

Answer 23

SaveStateComplete

Question 24

This is not an event. Rather at this point in the process, the Page object calls this method on each control

Answer 24

Render

Question 25

This is used to perform special cleanup activities, such as closing files or database connections, logging, etc.

Answer 25

Unload

Question 26

are the items that a developer places on an ASP .NET web page

Answer 26

ASP .NET server controls

Question 27

What are the four main types of controls?

Answer 27

1. HTML server controls
2. Web server controls
3. Validation controls
4. User controls

Question 28

wrappers for traditional HTML elements

Answer 28

HTML server controls

Question 29

tends to encompass more functionality and be more abstract than an HTML server control

Answer 29

Web server controls

Question 30

ensures that the values entered into other controls meet certain criteria, or are valid.

Answer 30

Validation controls

Question 31

controls that you build yourself. If a set of functionality needs to be available on multiple pages, then it is most likely that you should create this functionality as a user control

Answer 31

User controls
