Javascript ASP.Net

Always use ID instead of name to refer to controls in the ASP/ASP.Net page. If we use name, then the control cannot be idetified in javascript. 

If the control has only name and ID is not associated with the control, then add the ID to the control and then use this ID to identify the control in javascript

paying road tax in RTO Bangalore

I am sharing one more experience of my friend who paid his road tax directly with out any agents

He had all the documents required. He had been to the RTO office for 3-4 continous SATURDAY's to find out that 2nd SAT is holiday for RTO people. 

He paid the road tax directly along with change of address.  He brought his NOC from Hyderbad for his bike.

He was made to wait for 2 hours near his bike for the inspection, and atlast he paid his road tax as well as was able to get a change of address. 

paying road tax in RTO Bangalore

I went to pay road tax at RTO Indira Nagar.

There are 2 ways in which we can pay the road tax

1. Through Agent

2. Directly

The second option is more difficult one, as the people in RTO office talk only in Kannada. So it is always nice to take a friend of yours who knows Kannada. Also you need to all the documents required else you need to keep on visiting the RTO office. 

Here I am sharing my experience with all of you. I have read in many reviews that NOC for bike is not required while paying road tax for my bike. I moved from Hyderabad to Bangalore. But when I went to the RTO office, the scenario was entirely different. The officer was insisting on NOC even though I did not want to change my address or registration number. I was asked to fill Form 14. This form is completely in Kannada.

The Officer told me that without NOC I will not be able to pay road tax for my bike. I did not know what to do next. Immediately next to me was an agent standing who said, that he would pay the road tax on my behalf and asked for Rs.750 as commission. As I did not have NOC with me, I had no other option but to say "yes" to the agent and atlast we negociated the amount to Rs. 500. The agent took initial Rs 200 to give it to the officers sitting inside to get the signature on my application. 

Then he asked me to get a DD for the amount that the RTO Officer has written on Form 14. I got the DD for a nearby bank, and was able to pay the Road tax. Thanks to the corrupt system, I finally paid the road tax and now I am able to drive my vehicle without any fear of being caught by the police.

Registering a DLL returns error "return code was 0x80020009"

We may get this error while trying to register the dll.

0x80070005 is the Return code for not having administrative credentials.

Looks like 0x80020009 is a generic error.

If it is a permission problem...HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT is the key that you want.

Try this...
Reset the registry permissions
As soon as you have found the registry subkey that has the incorrect permissions, update the permissions for that subkey.

a. Click Start, click Run, type regedit and then click OK to startRegistry Editor.
