problem in embedding images in .net - ASP.NET Discussion Boards

I cant believe how inneficient this controls are
I guess that if one wants an optimal solution, one would have to rewrite the whole framework Frown | :-(

Hi Friends,
I am developing an web application which will download the files from a specified FTP folder (source) and copy it to a network shared folder (Destination). The network shared folder is given full rights to a particular user.
The application should log on to the shared folder using this credentials (credentials can be hardcoded) and copy the files from FTP to this location.

Can any of my friends help me out to achieve this...

Thanks & Regards,

S. Ranganathan

I don't think ASP.NET is the way to do this, you're assuming your browser has permission to wander the network file system, it does not.

The application is working fine for a destinaation folder with full rights for "EVERYONE" and run from local computer and but the same is not working when deployed in server...

this is what christian has told you dear

No other way to to accomplish it?

Black magic, perhaps. Your local machine has those rights, that's why it works. It cannot work on another machine, you need to write a client app for that.

hi,i want to send an email,containing embedded images.i have written a code for it and that's what i have written--
using System;

string fileName = FileUploadReciepent.PostedFile.FileName;
fileName = fileName.Substring(fileName.LastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
string filePath = Server.MapPath(".") + fileName;
FileUploadReciepent.PostedFile.SaveAs(filePath);
ExcelReader reader = new ExcelReader(filePath); //Create an Excel file Reader
reader.setCurrentWorksheet(1); //Set current worksheet as 1
Array al = reader.getRange("A1", "A3"); //Get A1 to A3 from worksheet 1

foreach (object cell in al) //Loop through all the cells
{
TxtTo.Text += cell + ",";
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
message.From = new MailAddress(txtName.Text);
message.To.Add(TxtReceipent.Text);
message.Subject = txtsubject.Text;
message.IsBodyHtml = true;
message.Body = Literal1.Text;
LinkedResource image = new LinkedResource("C:\\My Documents\\My Pictures\\anything.jpg");

You need to do some serious study, you are missing some very basic things. Outlook can access your file system. Can the person on the other end who gets this email, even if they have outlook, access your local file system ? Didn't I tell you earlier today - the image needs to be hosted on the web.

Does anyone know how to prevent the page from going to the beggining after a selection is made on the rating control?

Its kind of weird, really weird
It also happens on the official site of the ajaxtoolkit samples

Thanks in advance

How to authenticate the user name and password in real time not using Login controls given in VS 2005?
and how to assign roles dynamically(i am using forms authentication)?In real time do we use Login controls given by VS 2005 or do we need to create DB for login and retrieve values from DB and compare the login values with DB?

Thanks

By writing code that checks them against your own membership system, probably a database. That seems obvious to me, is this really what you meant to ask ?

dotnetprogrammer1984 wrote:

Depends, how do you want to assign them ? I mean, you have control over your role system, on what basis do you want to assign them dynamically ?

Hi there

I saw in directories that they display a category and its subs in links like

* Agriculture (258)
Agriculture & By-product Agents , Animal Fodders , Beans , Dried Fruits , .....

* Apparel (85)
Accessories , Athletic Wear , Children Garment , Footwear , Leisure Wear , .....

and all is links

how could i do this in asp.net 2.0 using VS 2005 Confused | :confused:

Could any one help me please ?

A repeater is the obvious way to get this data from the database and bind to it so it shows in the format you're hoping for.

Thank you very much for answering .

but iam not that familiar with the repeater and all the tutorials i have found dosent give me what i want .

could you please give me example on this case ?

Just create a repeater where each item is a link and where there's no break or anything else to create a new line. The data source would be a collection of objects that provides the text for the item, and hte link that the item goes to.

Hello,

using a dropdownlist I want to change the user interface language (resource files). The approach was supposed to work as follows:

1) Autopostback dropdownlist with language entries.
2) As soon as the selected index of the dropdownlist changes, the new language entry shall be stored in a session variable session["uiculture"].
3) Within InitCulture() the new language shall be set as follows
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo(session["uiculture"]);
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(session["uiculture"]);

However, the approach does not work. The language being set lags behind. It is only with the following postback that the language is being set - too late. So it seems like InitCulture() is being invoked prior to the selectedindex_changed(object sender, eventargs e) event handler.

How can I solve the problem?

Many thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Goebel

What would happen if you redirect the user to the same page after you set the uiculture in the session?
The user wouldnt notice it
I know this would cause 2 requests, but if it works, you can use it meanwhile

Or you could use server.transfer

Alexei Rodriguez

Thanks dude, that worked fine!

Cheers,
Goebel

If you are not using querystring parameters on this page, id recomend you to use server.transfer instead of response.redirect

Alexei Rodriguez

Hi, thanks for looking

Im inheriting a page from another page (commonpage)
In my commonpage im just making sure that session hasnt expired before forms authentication ticket (Only in forms that need the user to be logged in)

In the load of commonpage i have:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
    If Val(Session("UserID")) = 0 Then
        FormsAuthentication.SignOut()
        FormsAuthentication.RedirectToLoginPage()
    End If
End Sub

In the pages that inherit from this common page, i also handle the load event, wich gives me an error, and i have to declare it overloads
Then i need to include a call to the base load

Protected Overloads Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
   MyBase.Page_Load(Me, New System.EventArgs)

   'do something else
End Sub

Do i have to alwasy include a call to the load event of the base class or is there any other way to inplicitly call the load event of the base class?

Thanks in advance
Any other approaches are welcome

Alexei Rodriguez

You do need to call the base method explicitly, that's for sure. Not sure why you need to do 'overloads', but I don't do VB.NET.
