View 1 RepliesI have a table in my SQL Server DB that holds auditing information for certain actions a user takes within my system. Things like who performed the action, when it was performed, and what action are all pieces of information that can easily span multiple actions. But depending on the action performed, there may be other information that I want to capture, that is specific to the action. To handle this, I elected to add an "XML Metadata" column to the table that holds serialized XML of different metadata objects that I've created. I created a metadata object for each of the actions that I'm interested in tracking extra for. So each object is responsible for tracking specific extra information (metadata) for it's action. The objects are serialized and written to my new column.
I have SystemAction objects that I use to store information from this table, and I've added a string field that holds the XML string from the DB. The problem is, when I'm reading this XML back from the SystemAction objects, I'm struggling with a way to generically translate it back into it's correct metadata object. Each metadata object is going to have different fields, and each object has it's own static method that takes an XML string and attempts to return the metadata object type. So I could say:
SomeActionMetadata mdObj = SomeActionMetadata.BuildFromXML(xmlStringFromDB);
But I really don't know of a way to say "Here's some XML that could translate to any number of different objects. Figure it out and give me the right object back."
Given my current implementation, I could always just assign a unique ID to each metadata object that is stored as a field in each object, then use a case statement to switch on that ID and use the appropriate class's static build method to build the right object. But I was hoping for something a little more automatic than that. What if I have a List of SystemAction objects and just want to loop through them and generate the correct metadata object type?

View 1 RepliesI'm looking to alter the way my asp .net webpage is output to the browser depending on the css media type being used. Although the css is generally taking care of the differences in appearance between screen and print mode I would also like to make some minor adjustments to the markup when print mode is required. I would simply be dropping a floated section down below its sibling rather than as a 2 col approach which is to used during screen layout in the browser.
View 3 RepliesI have an application that I would like to be able to allow the user to modify multiple characteristics of each record within a datagrid.
Most characteristics require data to be entered in a text box but some a check box would be more appropriate.
My question is does a gridview column need to have all the same item template controls? or could I read from the database the control type and dynamically alter the template control for each row as it loads?
I am trying to write a function that can be called to run a stored procedure. I pass the stored procedure name, followed by as many parameters as I need to run the procedure. I am able to do this by using the params keyword, so my function looks something like this;

How can I determine what the data type of the parameter is? Maybe I need to alter the string[] part, above?

I am looping through a directory and grabbing a jpg filename if it matches certain conditions (shown in my code snippet below).
However there might be more than one jpg in the file with the same name string "BarneyIsCool" and in this case I need to get the newest file that contains "BarneyIsCool" .

So we're having this problem. A user goes to upload a file, and if it's above 10MB, it just kind of times out the page, and clears, and no good error is thrown to describe what happened. Ideally, we would like to examine the file size when the user chooses the file they want to upload but I don't know if this is even possible. Our framework is built with ASP.NET, VB.NET, and Javascript (and ExtJS 3.0), and it runs in IE.
View 6 RepliesI created a survey in vb.net where results are stored in an Excel file.Locally I can access and update the data of the file, but if I put online can not correctly access the excel file.How can I determine the absolute url of the file so, when a user submits the answers they can be inserted correctly in the excel file? Currently I use this to determine the location of the file:
Dim LocalizacaoFicheiro As String = String.Concat(Server.MapPath("."), "RespostasQuestionario.xlsx")
I have some processes that run without an HttpContext in an ASP.NET MVC web application. This process needs to be able to determine the physical path to the Contents directory of the application for reading/writing data. But, since it is without an HttpContext, I don't get to use fancy things like Server.MapPath and such.

View 1 RepliesHow do you do this in ASP.NET? Prefer VB.NET :) I have a file in my App_Data folder called test.mov. It's 500 megabytes. I want to create an ASPX page where it fetches the file, and then displays for a label the approximate download time depending on the user's connection.
It should say

approximate download time for your connection: 15 minutes
I'm building several user controls (ASCX) for my website and several of them are very similar in what they do. (As a side note, I must create unique UC's even if they're similar because I'm creating widgets for the new Telligent Community themeing system). For example, two of them are different but use the same front-end code to create a 2 or 3 tab panel where you can click a tab and it changes the data below. I have a single JS file to handle these tabs and the animations. I'm currently dynamically adding my JS file reference to the <head> from the user controls' code via:
Literal jsFile = new Literal();
jsFile.Text = string.Format("<script src="{0}"></script>", "/community/themes/test/js/tabbedCallout.js");
Page.Header.Controls.Add(jsFile);
If I have both of these controls on a page though, both will add this JS file reference. How can I do a check to see if it is already added from another control?

In my application I've allowed users to upload Excel 2003 .xls files, and import them into a Gridview. This has been working fine using the following connection string:
[Code]....
Now my users are using Excel 2003, 2007 or 2010, I need to allow the newer file extensions (.XLSX) to be accessible too.
Therefore, within the connection string above I presume I could change the Excel version from 8.0 to 9.0 or 10.0 respectively, but is there much difference between Excel 2007 and Excel 2010 files?
If so, is it possible to 'detect' the Excel file version so that I can use the appropriate connection string to read the data from the files?
I have a webpage that allows a user to download a specified file. When the file is ready to be fully downloaded (i.e I call the HttpResponse.End or HTTPRepone.Flush) the user is presented with a File Download dialogue.
Is there any way to determine what option the user has selected?
Have they Opened, Saved or Cancelled the File Download once the Flush or End has been sent?

I would like to restrict what they see in the file upload dialog, which is set to "All Files" by default. I understand how to validate that they only uploaded a certain file type, that is not the question here. I would just like to know how to default the file type in the file selection dialog.
Is there any way to change this to "PNG only" or "*.png"?This is using AsyncFileUpload in the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit.

When I open my ASP.NET site in IIS and try to open the .NET Trust Levels, I get an error message:
.NET Trust Levels There was an error while performing this operation.
Details:
Filename: ?C:inetpubwwwrootmyappweb.config
Line number: 445
Error: This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"),or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false".
I've checked a few places, but I haven't found anything that seems like it would be locking that setting. Is there a systematic way of determining where that setting is locked?
