Caching 2

[litton1]

Hi all,

I have a telephone number that comes from the DB into a label. What is the best way I can I cash this for all visitors of the page, but only this?

Thanks L

It's cache, not cash. LOL
Anyway, this is not something that should be cached. This should go into the web.config. This way
if the number ever needs to be changed, there is no code to release, you simply edit the web.config.

Hi thanks for the lesson English lesson 

It need's to be in the database though.

Then you can simply put it into a session variable. You can load it in the application_start event in the Global.asax.

Thanks. That’s exactly what I wanted. Please excuse the typos.

Glad I could help you!
And I was only kidding with the typos..

As an afterthought, if the phone number is system wide and not user specific you could use the application cache with an absolute expiration so it gets refreshed periodically in case the dB value changes. This would mean on dB hit rather than one per user session with the cached value being available to all application users...

..just a thought.
