Use regexp to filter for question mark (?) parameter in url and add either ? or &

1.
var searchString = action + ((action.indexOf('?') == -1) ? '?search=' : '&search=');

2.
var startChar = action.indexOf('?') == -1 ? '?' : '&',
    searchString = action +  startChar  + 'search=' + search + '&filter=';

3.
var hasQM = (/\?/).test(action);
var searchString = action + (!hasQM ? '?' : '&') + 'search=' + search + '&filter='

A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (*)

If you're using .NET 4.0 you should be able to allow these urls via the web.config

<system.web>
    <httpRuntime
            requestPathInvalidCharacters="&lt;,&gt;,%,&amp;,:,\,?" />
</system.web>
Note, I've just removed the asterisk (*), the original default string is:

<httpRuntime
          requestPathInvalidCharacters="&lt;,&gt;,*,%,&amp;,:,\,?" />

Can we pass parameters to a view in SQL?

A possible solution would be to implement a stored function, like:

CREATE FUNCTION v_student (@pintSno INT)
RETURNS TABLE
AS
RETURN
   SELECT * FROM Student WHERE stu_id=@pintSno ;


This allows you to use it as a normal view, with:

SELECT * FROM v_student (3)

Split string and take last element In sql

DECLARE @full_path VARCHAR(1000)
SET @full_path = '\\SERVER\D$\EXPORTFILES\EXPORT001.csv'


SELECT SUBSTRING( @full_path , LEN(@full_path) -  CHARINDEX('\',REVERSE(@full_path)) + 2  , LEN(@full_path)  )


Result :
EXPORT001.csv


Syntax

 select url,
(CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('/', url, 1)=0 THEN url ELSE RIGHT(url, CHARINDEX('/', REVERSE(url)) - 1) END) AS ResultValue
from(
    select 'Articles/Search/ArtMID/2681/ArticleID/2218/Diet.aspx' as url union
    select 'OurStory/MD.aspx' as url union
    select 'AMD.aspx' as url
)dummytablename

How to Set Master Page dynamically?

void Page_PreInit(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.MasterPageFile = "~/MyMaster.master";
}

Explanation: 
You can attach a master page dynamically to a content page. Because the master page and content page are merged during the initialization stage of page processing, a master page must be assigned before then. Typically, you assign a master page dynamically during the PreInit stage.

Drop everything in a MS SQL server database

 The SQL script must be execute on the database level. Optionally you can add an
  USE ‘your Database Name’     statement on the top.

Easiest way to generate MachineKey

Use IIS 7.5 user interface to generate the MachineKey section and save it in the web.config of your application / root web.config file. Steps are quite easy:
1) Open IIS manager.
2) If you need to generate and save the MachineKey for all your applications select the server name in the left pane, in that case you will be modifying the root web.config file (which is placed in the .NET framework folder). If your intention is to create MachineKey for a specific web site/application then select the web site / application from the left pane. In that case you will be modifying the web.config file of your application.
3) Double click the Machine Key icon in ASP.NET settings in the middle pane:

4) MachineKey section will be read from your configuration file and be shown in the UI. If you did not configure a specific MachineKey and it is generated automatically you will see the following options:

5) Now you can click Generate Keys on the right pane to generate random MachineKeys. When you click Apply, all settings will be saved in the web.config file.

1. Create a new table with identity & drop the existing table

2. Create a new column with identity & drop the existing column
