Why would an ASP.NET site be checking if other sites are valid ?

Wait - you don't really know C# or C++, or any other language, but you're writing this to help a friend, who knows so little about programming that they are asking for help from a beginner, yet they are writing code for their job ?
ninjatruck wrote: The program will read a .csv, and check URLs based on what it reads. I have everything else working great, but checking the URL isn't working correctly. I've only been working with c# for about a month at this point.
For someone who has been working with C# for a month to try to write code like this, is insane. You're not learning C# really, you're learning enough syntax to try to use some objects in the .NET framework, without really understand what is going on.
Have you checked what exception is thrown when you go to a URL you expect is valid ? Perhaps the exception type is different.

I hadn't checked what exception was thrown. Thanks for the idea.
Honestly I didn't realize this was such a complicated task when I said I would help.

Fair enough - you're doing a cool thing to try to help a friend, I am just shocked that based on your limited experience, that he both needs your help, and has a job as a developer.

It is very hard to make. If you PING to server, you can easly get if the server is accsasible. But as i understand from your original post, you wan't to make sure a link is valid not if server is accsasible. Here the problem rises. Server is easly visible, but it will return a custom 404 page.
If you wan't to make for specific sites, you can grab all those sites their custom 404 pages, parse it and check its content.

I think it should be always better to ping the server rather than practically loading the page.
The site sometimes throws error if proper login to the url is not there.
So Please take out the part after the url and ping that. For instance
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000GELXHY
should be placed as
http://www.amazon.com
Hope this is working.

that depends on your definition of valid, e.g.:
- responding to pings;
- responding to HTML GET;
- responding to HTML POST;
- responding to other protocols;

My mistake, essentially I need to see if the url gives a 404 error.

Read his answer above. He's been doing C# for a month and that month gives him more experience than a friend who works as a programmer, so he's trying to help him out.

Is this the title of an article or has it some remote connection to C#, i.e. this forum?

I'm sorry, but it's clear you're not really ready for the big time.
1 - sujeet3082@yahoo.com - using your email as a user id will get you tons of spam
2 - this is the C# forum
3 - your subject line is ridiculously pointless
4 - your 'question' is plain rude. We are real people, you don't just type what you want and we write it for you.

With an image processing filter. I'd write it in C++ to make it more efficient and faster, tho.

I noticed that at times I was getting the wrong tag information after loading an image into
memory using Bitmap object.
What I found is that when tags 256, 257 are stored as type short,(3) microsoft reads them as type long. This throughs everything off. I stepped through the tags myself via hex editor, then verified tags were read properly via LeadTools Tiff Tag editor.
I really hoping to use Bitmap.ProperyItems.
Can some one tell me if I am out of my mind ?

Hi,
Is anyone can tell me how to write a xml file that can return me a result look like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Items>
<Appointment Start="07/12/2008 11:05:00" End="07/12/2008 14:30:00" .../>
<Appointment Start="07/14/2008 08:15:00" End="07/16/2008 16:40:00" .../>
</Items>
Above is my expected look of my xml file.
These data <Appointment start=".... /> are set EXACTLY THE SAME into a dataset and the table name is "xmldata" And before it is generated I try to loop this dataset and hope to generate a xml look like above. but i alway fail to get a correct format.
its comes like this:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<Items>
<xmldata>
<Data>Appointment Start='07/12/2008 11:05:00' End='07/12/2008 14:30:00' Description='Rent this car ' Label='2' Location='city' ResourceId='1' Status='3' Subject='Mr.Brown' </Data>
</xmldata>
<xmldata>
<Data>Appointment Start='07/14/2008 08:15:00' End='07/16/2008 16:40:00' Description='Scheduled repair of this car' Label='4' Location='Service Center' ResourceId='1' Status='2' Subject='Repair' </Data>
</xmldata>
</Items>
XML above by using: ldt_ds.Tables["xmldata"].WriteXml(sourcePath2, false);
Hope someone can help on this.
Thank you.

You have several options.
If you are using SQL Server, you can use the FOR XML clause in the stored proc you are using to query the data.
You can use XSLT or Linq to XML to transform the given XML into the desired format.
You can use a combination of Linq To XML and Linq to SQL to created the required output.

Never expect an automated tool to produce what you want.
I'd use an XmlDocument to do that.

Hello everyone,
I've searched around but I've not found anything. I want my user to buy or register the software in my app itself. So I don't want to go to a URL or something like that. I'm searching for a safe and free licensing method, that can check if the user has paid his serial.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Madmatt.

For the most part, in this context, these terms are mutually exclusive.
Given your previous postings, what could you have possible written that anyone would want to purchase?

Don't worry about that. Example: web-based AD Management.
You say it's exclusive but it's possible...
I can write it myself too but then I need a little tutorial with complete examples.

As you still have difficulties to understand my situation... The last time I'll explain is now:
- I'm still at secundary school (is that so difficult?)
- Because I'm still there, I'm learning English (wauw, so complicated!)
- I'm not yet studying C# at school or high school, but I've read a book and more then that...
==> Conclusion: I'm a beginner so maybe it isn't that difficult that I didn't know how to log OUT and yes it was log OUT with an ASP.NET app (I know you have difficulties with reading...).
EDIT: I don't want to create my own mechanism, otherwise I should not have posted this question...
I only want to create one if there is no other solution, and even then I'll need help.
And you're doing as you are such a pro like no one else is, but I can't find any useful post in the first 5 pages of the board here. Exept this usual slap down on me, without an answer...

Which is why it is ludicrous of you to post such questions.

Guess you should just stop posting then.
