Hi!
I am trying to figure out how to create a bit of code that will save/copy an image from a webpage URL to a folder on a local directory or network directory. The URL will be predictable and the local directory will be constant. I just need help with the code that actually saves the image.
What I have tried so far:
Dim FSO
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FSO.CopyFile "http://www.whatever.com/test.gif", "C:\temp\test.gif"
I am not sure if I have coded this wrong, or if this code will even do what I need. Also, I am not exactly sure how to implement this code. Would this be run in an HTML file?
I am a complete programming noob so, thanks for your help!

The file system doesn't undestand the http protocol. Use a WebRequest object or a WebClient object to request the file.

Hello,
Does anyone have a code snippet for adding a blank row at the end or top of the gridview on a button click?The button is outside the GV and not in the footer.
I did it in datagrid and I guess it was easier.But for gridview it isn't working. I will post my little snippet but it is giving me error:
Protected Sub btnadddriver_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnadddriver.Click
DriverGV.DataBind()
Dim ds As DataSet = DriverGV.DataSource
Dim blank As System.Data.DataRow = ds.Tables(0).NewRow()
ds.Tables(0).Rows.InsertAt(blank, ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count)
DriverGV.EditIndex = ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count - 1
DriverGV.DataBind()
End Sub
The error I am getting is :
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Line 16: Dim blank As System.Data.DataRow = ds.Tables(0).NewRow()
If someone has a working snippet for adding a blank row to the gridview can you kindly help me?
I'm on Visual Studio2005,Asp.Net2.0,VB
Thanks.All help is much appreciated.
Aartee.

Basically a have a link set in the appsettings section of the web.config file. I want to read the value from the aspx page if possible without even creating code behind function.
<<asp:hyperlink id="lnkSecureHome" style="FONT: bold 8pt Arial; COLOR: #067606; vertical-align: top; padding-right: 15px;" Runat="Server" NavigateUrl='<%=System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("AppsHomePage").ToString %>' >Home<</asp:hyperlink>This fails as it literally points to 'http://localhost/...%3c%25=System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings...'.
However,
<<td>
<<%=System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("AppsHomePage").ToString%>
<</td>works as expected displaying the value.
How do I set the property with in the html of an aspx page?
I know I can set the value in the form_load event but just curious how you do it from the html.

I haven't done any ASP.NET. However, what happens if you take the Runat="Server" attribute out? It seems to me that is the main difference between the two examples.

hi,
just try this:
after entering the user id & Pwd, just use this code to know the user login time.
DateTime LoginTime= new DateTime();
LoginTime=DateTime.Now;
private string lstrUserID; // To hold login user id
private string lstrPassword; // To hold login Password
this.lblErrorMessage.Text = "";
lstrUserID = txtUserID.Text.Trim();// Get the Correct User Login Id
lstrPassword = txtPassword.Text.Trim(); // Get the Correct User Password
< write the code for validating the User>
if the credentials are valid (valid user) then, to redirect the user
Response.Redirect("MainMenu.aspx");
}
else
{
lblErrorMessage.Text = "Invalid UserID / Password";(//to display the error message i am using label here, just use according to ur page)
}
Thanks,
Rahi

Hi,
Got a really annoying problem with downloading a file froma web site.
My code is pretty straight forward:
Response.Clear();
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + resource.Filename.Replace(" ","_"));
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", resource.FileSizeBytes.ToString());
Response.ContentType = resource.MIMEType; // "application/octet-stream";
Response.WriteFile(fileToDownload);
//Response.Flush();
//Response.Close();
Response.End();
(You'll notice indications of desperation - randomly commenting code out) I have tried with the actual MIMEType and the application/octet-stream type - same result.
The download fails, and actually downloads the first x bytes of the web page itself, as the following Fiddler trace reveals:
Many thanks for any help you can give.

This code works for me (in my button click event handler):
<br />
Response.Clear ();<br />
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";<br />
Response.AddHeader ("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"foo.jpg\"");<br />
Response.WriteFile (Server.MapPath ("foo.jpg"));<br />
Response.End ();

I am trying to instantiate a class and am not able to do so (C# Visual Studio 2005).
In frm2, I wrote: private frm2 tmpfrm2; (This works in Visual Studion 2003 but not in 2005)
Help!

In Visual Studio 2005 if you go to Build menu you'll see an option for "Clean Solution". What exactly does this command do for us and also when should we use it?
Thanks.

It moves all the built libraries, executables, object files etc from the solution. Sometimes VS will get it's knickers in a twist with not updating the correct libraries etc and you can use Clean to force it to delete the old version and then next time it compiles you can (more or less) guarantee that the latest code / libraries will be used.

Hi Everyody,
I want to know what determines the maximum attachment size in an ASP2 web application.
I send an email from a web application & the attachment is about 2 MB.
Whenever I try to send it from the Visual Studio 2005 project,it takes much time then gives me an exception saying that it couldn't be sent & timed out.
It works normally in the VS 2003 application.
Any Clue??
Thnx a lot

Not sure if you are trying to attach the file from a web interface or if the file is located on the server.
If you are having the user upload the file as attachment then you might have to override the httpRuntime's maxRequestLength value in the web.config file.
By default ASP.NET only allows files with size 4MB [4096 KB] or less to be uploaded but you can change it like this:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="8192" />

Thanks a lot for your response..Actually the file is located on the server. Is there anything else I should change??
|
|
|
|
|
If file is located on the server then I would first check for common things like for instance if the file is locked or not, read access, other error handling code that might cause an infinite loop etc.
Post your code so we can see exactly how you are trying to attach the file. Thanks.

Thanks again Robert.
Actually I create a PDF file in the code,the file is placed on the server but after it is created,it's added automatically to source control..This doesn't happen in VS 2003 though I didn't change anything when converting the project to VS 2005 so I just want to remove a specific folder in the project from the source conttrol (Visual Source Safe) How can I do that??
|

|

You can do the following:
Goto File > Source Control > Exclude "MyFileOrFolderName" from Source Control
You can also exclude that folder from your VS2005 project if it is not directly used in the project that will also take care of the VSS problem.
Hope that helps
Robert
