Re: Where to set video files

4-Aug-08 1:28

Must be on Server in some folder in your portal

because video files are very heavy and the will kill your application by slowing down it if u bring it from database.

store them in some folder on server itself and save path like "\videos\comedy\" and "\videos\sports\" in database simple varchar field. that will be more faster

Hi,
I am using a datagrid to show my data. In my datagrid I have one column it shows the image. My problem is that I can see the images in IE but not in firefox. How can I make my images visible in datagrid for firefox.

I suspect the issue is nothing to do with the datagrid. What happens if you try displaying the same image just on it's own with a "normal" img tag? If your image path/filename has spaces in it, try replacing them with %20 in the url. Examine the page source code to see exactly what is being sent to the browser.

There is no pace in the path I have given for the image. Problem is I can see the image in dadatgrid column in IE but not in the firefox. I just see the blank column in datagrid in firefox.

Now do a right-click and choose "View page source" and see what is written to the column...

and if you copy/paste that exact path into the src property of a standard HTML img tag outside the datagrid, does it or does it not show in Firefox?

Is this by any chance a jpg image that was produced on a Mac and you are displaying it on a PC, or vice versa? This can cause issues too. Open the file in an image manipulation program on your computer and save it again.

Change screen in kiosk mode

4-Aug-08 2:51

Yes when I am copy/paste the entire path outside the datagris I can see the image. but not in datagrid.

I dont think image produced on Mac is the issue. Because if it so I should't see any image in datagrid in IE. But I can see the images there but not in fire fox

I need to be able to minimize the broswer window when it is in kiosk mode using a button.
Is there any way to do this? for example using javascript or similar language

Alignment Problem in Table Row

I have an item template in a drop-down list, which comprises a single table row with two columns. My problem is that I cannot get the right-hand column to left-align properly. I'm getting the dropdown items rendered as follows¹:

Nu Way Care Centre   Nu Way Care Centre
O'Mage    O'Mage
Oakhill Cellars                Oakhill Cellars

¹ The values in the right column are intentionally duplicated; many clients use the same value for customer name and customer account number.

My attempted layout of the template is:

<tr style="white-space:nowrap; table-layout:fixed;">
  <td style="width:220px; overflow:hidden; text-align:left; table-layout:fixed;"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "SupplierName")%></td>
  <td style="width:100px; overflow:hidden; text-align:left; table-layout:fixed;"><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "SupplierNo")%></td>
</tr>

Might be it is coming from Cache
Are you checking Session in every page ? (User credentials)
You should check session in every Page if session is not set redirect user to login page.

Even though if you clear the browser cache user will again click on refresh page and will able to go back
One option is close the window when user click in Logout button
If not then take a look at google user to clear browser cache

Check for SessionID in PageLoad some what like this:

if(Session.ID == null || Session.ID == "")
{
Response.Redirect("erroroage.aspx");
}

Session.Abandon() clears all values for session including SessionID. so SessionID will get null and hitting Back Button and checking for sessionID in PageLoad will get null value and page will be redirected to your desired page.
