Choosing the Right Color

There are plenty of tools on the Internet to pick colors. One of my favorites to find a nice pallet of colors is the Adobe Kuler Color Wheel .

Sometimes you would like to find the small variation of shades between two colors. I like the Color Mixer tool at w3Schools for this.

Avoid Resubmitting Events On Web Page Refresh

Resubmitting events during a web page refresh can be detrimental. For example, you don't want your code to make another add to the database or resubmit a credit card charge. You could redirect your user to a confirmation page when a submit button is pressed. A page refresh will only affect the confirmation page. That may not fit your scenario.

Using ASP.NET ViewState

I ran across a nice piece of code at http://stackoverflow.com/a/8010057/3817299 and repeated below that detects a page refresh using the ViewState.

Add this in your class:
#region Browser Refresh

private bool refreshState;
private bool isRefresh;

protected override void LoadViewState(object savedState)
{
  object[] AllStates = (object[])savedState;
  base.LoadViewState(AllStates[0]);
   refreshState = bool.Parse(AllStates[1].ToString());
   if (Session["ISREFRESH"] != null && Session["ISREFRESH"] != "")
   isRefresh = (refreshState == (bool)Session["ISREFRESH"]);
}

protected override object SaveViewState()
{
   Session["ISREFRESH"] = refreshState;
   object[] AllStates = new object[3];
   AllStates[0] = base.SaveViewState();
   AllStates[1] = !(refreshState);
   return AllStates;
}

#endregion

And in your button click do this:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   if (isRefresh == false)
   {
     Insert Code here
   }
}

Using AJAX

You can also avoid the event re-submission by using AJAX to handle your button events.
