http://localhost/myapp/app_themes/
same with app_data, can those be blocked, i didn't try app_data as i don't have anything in there, but just curious, as app_themes I was able to get into. Is this an IIS setting I need to adjust?

View 2 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.

The Stylesheet in the App_Theme folder gets cached in the browser. What should be the approach? so that whenever there is a new deployment the browser should take the latest stylesheets and not the one cached in the browser.
This was happening for other css(which are not in theme folder) too, so used custom control as mentioned in the link

How this could be done for the CSS in the Theme folder?
Edit: The theme name is mentioned in the web.config as mentioned below. so its not just the html link tag which I had solved by using the method mentioned in the link.
<pages styleSheetTheme="Default">
<controls>
</controls>
</pages>

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 2 RepliesI have a simple web app project in Visual Studio 2010 (converted from 2008 project). For some reason when I publish the app, Visual Studio doesn't copy the App_Theme -folder to the publish destination folder. This will cause the app to fail when deployed to production environment.
App_Theme is considered as "system" folder by VS (shown as grey), which means that I can't manually set it's publish properties.
how to get VS to copy App_Theme -folder when deploying?
I have a root directory in which I have many sub directories. Each of those subdirectories has its own project, webconfig.ini file, etc. I added a Theme directory to each of the projects in the subfolders. This worked correctly until recently when my webhost changed something with my websites because of a malisious attack on them. I don't know what they changed (nor will they tell me) but it no longer picks up the themes in the sub-folders rather it use the theme directory in the main root. How can I tell my app to use the theme directory in the same directory that it lives in rather than using the one from the parent directory?

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#).
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 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.
