We have a legacy app with multiple asp.net themes. Each theme have a .skin file. Each skin file is almost identical except for some things. The files share a lot of similarities. Is it possible to share a common .skin file across themes?

View 1 RepliesI'm in the process of building a webforms site. In the grand tradition of programmers, I have been looking for collections of skins/themes/css for asp.net controls to avoid the work of building them myself.Especially since I'm graphically challenged. I've found numerous sites with templates for drupal, DNN, etc but the only places I've found asp.net control themes/skin/css collections is within commercial component libs that cost more than i'm able to afford.
The absence of these collections is also making me question how I'm building the site since I assume the "theme" sites would be providing these collections if there was a demand.
Can anyone point me to where I can find inexpensive or free asp.net theme/skin collections or give me some pointers about how to build a site without requiring a bunch of work to create them from scratch.
I am using Theme and skin to my current project.
I would like to know, can

I am an ASP.Net developer, and I use the data controls quite frequently. One of the things that Microsoft, unfortunately, hasn't spent much time on, are the themes. (i.e. "Professional, Colorful, etc...) No offense to the designers that came up with them, but I don't use them because they're not all that pleasant to look at. I've been designing my own "App_Themes".
Is there a gallery of themes that you can download or buy to plug into ASP.Net controls. It would be really cool if someone has figured out how to add themes to the "tasks", where all the stock themes are. I also use Developer Express, so I'm aware that there are control libraries out there, and have used them, I just haven't seen themes that were designed specifically for use with ASP.Net controls in a manner that made them seamless with the "out of the box" themes.
Does anyone know how to either add your own theme to the collection of themes ASP comes with, or is there a good set of themes for purchase or free? Links would be much appreciated. Just to clarify, I'm not talking about control libraries, just ASP.Net themes.
I would like to change a Theme in an ASP.NET web application, depending on the login credentials. So, if user1 logs in, then the Theme will automatically be set to say User1Theme. And if user2 logs in, then the theme will automatically be set to User2Theme. Otherwise, I would like the theme to be set to DefaultTheme.
View 4 RepliesI've found very little on developing skins for controls online. I can do everything except to know what the attributes / properties in a skin file are. I need a good resource for all attributes / properties for controls. Apart from that is it possible to do a lot more than can be achieved with css. In particular to change the appearance of the FileUpload button so that it matches all the other ImageButtons' appearances on my web page.

View 1 RepliesI have an ASP.NET MVC application that attempts to read a file in using a filestream and File.OpenRead().
When the path to the file is a share on the same workgroup, and I give access to NETWORK SERVICE for the share, this works perfectly as desired.
However, when the path to the share is a UNC path to a remote share within the LAN, with read permissions open for "Everyone", the "File.OpenRead()" method throws an exception saying "Could not find a part of the path".
In my test cases I'm debugging locally with the ASP.NET MVC app being given a UNC path to the computer that it's actually running on. It's a share on my C drive, being "Shared" with permissions to "Everyone" for read access.
Is there something in IIS that needs to be configured? If I try to impersonate, in this context, the impersonation doesn't matter because NETWORK SERVICE was the user trying to access the files when it worked for a share in the same workgroup.
Question: Is it possible to embed .skin files as a resource?
I am creating a library of user controls(grids, buttons, etc.) that are common among all of our web projects. I have included several common javascript files used by the controls by adding them as an embedded resource and registering them as a resource using RegisterClientScriptResource. Everything works great.
However, the last thing I would like to do is embed skin files in this project so that all the controls have the same look. I know I can control look solely with css, but I would like to control some of the other asp attributes as well(ie AllowSorting and AllowPaging attributes of a grid). Is it possible to embed skin files as a resource? Or will each individial project need a copy of the skin file? If anyone could provide insight on how I can go about embedding a skin file..
How can I set skin file to master page. Is is possible?
Actually I want to set common skin for all content pages of the master page.
I have a theme containing a skin file. I assigned this skin to the page and its working fine.
Due to some of requirements, i need to get the settings of skin file.
Suppose i have TextBox/Button settings in Skin file, Now i want to get those settings, like BackColor, ForeColor etc on the CodeBehind (C#).
I have written a bit of code that helps with versioning of js files. Essentially it spins around the current script manager and appends the javascript file path with an md5 hash of the file. So
<script src="../Javascript/Navigation.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
becomes
<script src="../Javascript/Navigation.js?md5=70D2B4D1F236C7E340D9152B9E4102C3" type="text/javascript"></script>
I think this is a fairly common thing to do (or variants of it). What I am struggling to do is pick up the css files in the app_themes folder and do the same.
How do I get in and change the css links?
why FLVPlayback isn't working properly in MVC views? I think i narrowed it down to the "hard coded" skin url file not being correct. Where should I put the skin file( e.g. skinOverAllNoCaption.swf) so that flash can find it? Or are there any alternative approaches to somehow setting the skin file dynamically.

When I format an accordion control using a skin file (as opposed to entering the formatting as attributes on each <asp:Accordion> tag), the control renders as expected when the website is run. However, in the VS2010 designer, the control won't display but instead shows the generic "Error Rendering Control" box which hasthe exception, "Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute."
View 1 RepliesWhen I right click on any folder below the App_Themes folder in VS 2010, the only web file that appears to be able to be added is the Skin file. If I pick a regular folder within the site (other than App_Themes), Style Sheet does appear.
I checked both an existing web application project (VS2008 upgraded to VS2010) and a new web application project created in VS2010 and both yield the same results.
I can create a CSS file in another folder (like the main folder) and then drag it into the theme folder, as a work around. Just trying to determine if I was missing something regarding theme folder and CSS files.
I'm setting my site theme with the following code in my global.asax file, but if I go to a product page with a URL that has been rewritten through a rewriter, the global file doesn't affect the master page anymore and the page doesn't use the theme that is being set in the global file?

We have a web farm and are writing temp files for reports. We set up a file share and are using impersonation to write the temporary report files to that share. We gave the account doing the impersonation full control to the share and the folder itself.The files are writing correctly but are not being deleted.Is there something we're missing with this setup?
View 4 RepliesI want to upload files to the web servers from the client machines.
Can i upload a file on a network share folder using file upload control?
I would like to create a share folder on a file server sitting next to the web server. If i upload the file from the network share folder instead of uploading it from the client machine does it make any difference?
Will the file be stored in a temporary location before copying to the final destination? Where will be the file stored in this case of uploading it from share folder?
