I am using a dropdownlist in my application to choose from the international telephone country codes. Since I didn't find anything I wrote a script which fetched the data from a telecommunications site and formatted it as ListItems. In case anyone else is looking for the same information you can find it here:

I am looking for the best way to capture and validate US & international personal data. I have to use ASP.NET 2.0 (vb.net) and no 3rd party web services. This are all client restrictions.
The main point of this is I have to toss their data to FedEx for a shipping quote. I think FedEx has a address checker but that web service was not approved in the scope of the project and its too late to get it added.
My current solution is to just let the field be required and free form then before I save their profile check to see if FedEx will return a quote. If it fails then I will ask them to recheck their profile or contact the admin.
I am tasked with providing a membership form that requires users to given their postal addresses. The form needs to be very friendly to maximize data accuracy. So I am required to take the user's country and their zip code and from that pre-populate the town field. Moreover, this must be done in the official language of the country chosen e.g.Japan/Japanese. Since I don't really believe this is yet
possible, my starting point will be an English version of this.
Does anyone know of a database/web service that can provide*international* address information based on country and zip/postal code?
The task is this: Create custom AJAX method with option to call server side ASPX page and predefined Web Service: a.) Get all cities from ASPX page by given Country Code. For ex. send country code "US" to get a result of a unknown number of cities such as "Washington", "New York", "Houston" etc. with their corresponded ZIP codes (1000, 1100, 1200 etc); b.) Call a web service, posting ZIP code which returns does the code represent palindrome string (A number that reads the same whether written forwards or backwards).

Is there a place on web where we can get a list of countries and cities handy, and then populate into our dropdownlists in ASP.net page.
My code:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
String userHost = Request.UserHostName
}
This is fetching the IP address alright, but now I want to know the country of the visitor and USE that country name to redirect the visitor to some webpage accordingly.
I came across this library but have no clue how to use it in the project. Actually I do, but I am not sure so I am asking.

When I download from the above the ZIP folder has a DLL file and an XML file. Now, what do I do with these two? Like include in the project. Then what do I type in the code file?
Something like the following.
if (countryName=="France")
{
response.redirect("www.mysite.fr") [code]....
How do I go about it? Also do I really need to type SO many if blocks for ALL the countries. How do I shorten this code?

The question might sound weird, but I am planning to create a asp.net website, which when fully done, will ideally cater to all countries.I am currently in the architecture phase.. and is there anything that I should keep in might when doing this?
like,saving all datetime fields in utc
using user's timezone to display all time related data
all labels in the website to be localizable
is there anything else?
I want to validate zip codes that belongs to most of country like USA,UK,Australia,India etc.....
View 3 RepliesI am currently using regular expression for VISA card validation from nopCommerce to validate Visa cards just before sending them to the payment processor. The problem is that it returns a false-positive with international credit cards; it returns "invalid number" for a valid international VISA card number.
Is there any way I can validate international credit cards? I would like to do some pre-validation before sending it to the payment processor, and my guess is that nopCommerce only works with US-based credit cards.
I want to create a page that can read extended characters in the QueryString. While this normally is not a problem, there is one case where I don't manage: when the QueryString is manually entered (or even pasted).
Here is a simple test-case:
[Code]....
This works fine both when clicking the hyperlink or submitting the form. However, when you enter the special characters manually in the URL, or in some browsers even when you just highlight the URL bar and click Enter to open the page, the characters will be mangled. (You may need to empty your cache or perform a forced refresh to see these results.
In Internet Explorer 8:
Clicking the hyperlink shows the characters unencoded in the URL bar. Submitting the form shows the characters double-byte encoded (for example, the first character "å" (small letter a with ring above, unicode position 0xA5) is encoded as %C3%A5 instead of just as %A5. In both cases, the output shows the correct characters.After clicking the hyperlink (which creates an URL with readable characters), clicking the URL bar to highlight the URL and pressing Enter to open the page, shows square boxes instead of the characters as output. Note that you may have force a reload of the page to see this. The same happens when you enter characters manually in the URL bar.Highlighting the URL bar and submitting the double-byte encoded URL (as it is created by the form) shows the output as it should.Manually entering single-byte encoded characters ("%A5%B8%A6") will again show boxes instead of characters.
I have a webform (for posting ads) that has an AJAX HTML Editor (for ad description) and AJAX fileupload control to upload & display some images. If I don't upload any images (no postback is done) then the html editor will display the international characters correctly and the ad is then stored correctly.
As soon as I upload an image for display (and postback is automatically done), then the html editor will replace all the international characters with unrecognized characters. And the ad will be stored with those incorrect characters.
Is there any way I can avoid this? I'm still not exactly sure why the html editor automatically replaces all my characters when postback is done.Or is there another html editor that manages this better?
I currently trying to convert a ASP.NET MVC2 application to ASP.NET MVC3 razor. I have a lot custom Html helper methods, which render html output, like the one below, which renders a button with some markup :
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("<input type='submit' id='") .Append(buttonId) .Append("' name='" ) .Append(buttonId) .Append("' value='") .Append(buttonValue) .AppendLine("' class='myclass1 myclass2' />");return MvcHtmlString.Create(sb.ToString());
i am wishing to display asp or html codes on my web page. actually i am working on article project and article includes codes too. still i am using <iframe> but not looking soo good.i am also wishing to dispaly codes in a way that can be expand or collapsed using (+) sing, as you also know. or tell me any alternative to accomplish.

View 1 RepliesI've had a bit of feedback from some threat and vulnerability folks relating to websites returning HTTP 500 response codes. Essentially the advice is that all possible measures must be taken to avoid the server throwing a 500 (i.e. extensive form input validation) which is fine. However, the advice also suggested that attempts to compromise security by means such as inserting a tag into a random query string causing ASP.NET request validation to fire or manipulating viewstate also should not return an HTTP 500. Obviously the native framework behaviour is to interpret the request and possibly throw to a custom error page but even this will return a 500 response code.
So I'm after some thoughts on how to approach this. Is there any way to configure the app at either the .NET level or IIS level to return an HTTP 200 when a 500 is raised? Or does this become a coding exercise at global.asax level in one of the application events? Are there other consequences to consider? BTW, the rationale from the security side is that apps which return HTTP 500 may be viewed as "low hanging fruit" by bots randomly scanning for vulnerabilities and prompt further malicious activity. attempts I'm personally not convinced that changing response codes offers any real security gains but am happy to hapy to take the advice of the pros.
Anybody know of any web services or any other ways of finding all the zip codes within an x mile radius?I have referred to the following link for all the state and zip codes ttp://www.census.gov/tiger/tms/gazetteer/zcta5.txtJust looking for the best method to make this happen.

View 2 Repliesi have a gridview populated by a Web Service search function. some of the columns in the grid are templatefields, because the values coming back from the search (in a datatable) are ids - i then use these ids to lookup the values when the rowdatabound event is triggered and populate a label or some such.
this means that my sorting function for these id/lookup columns sorts by the ids rather than the textual value that i have looked up and actually populated the grid with (although i do put the ids in the grids datakeys).
what i want to do is top be able to sort by the looked up textual value rather than the codes for these particular columns.what i was going to do to get around this was to when the datatable comes back from the search, adding more columns the textual values and doing all the looking up then, thus being able to sort directly from the manually added columns.
is there another way to do this? as that approach seems like a bit of a bodge. although i guess it does remove having to do the looking up in the rowdatabound event....
my sorting function works by sticking the datatable in the session and on each bind grabbing the sort column and binding the gridview to a DataView with the sort attribute set to the column - and the direction.
Im doing thing profile, zip code thing on my site. One table has a list of zipcodes and in the other is a profile and there they keep what zip code they entered. I already have the radius code but idk how to get a list of all the profiles in a radius.I'm going to store the zip codes that come back from the zip code table in a arraylist and put it in a session state so i don't have to keep getting the same thing over and over again. The problem is i don't know how to write the linq to sql query to take the arraylist of zip codes and look up all the users that have that as there set zip code in there profile.
View 1 RepliesIm looking for the functionality seen in most commercial websites like google maps to get approximate distance between cities and zip codes. Im guessing these sites are using huge databases with all this information already in them. It would be interesting to learn how to create this functionality myself but Im sure that would require a great deal of time. So Im looking for a package where someone has already done the work(an API) that would allow me to enter two different zip codes or maybe two different city,state combinations and take actions from there.
View 5 RepliesI have to filter user input to on my web ASP.NET page:
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="recipientBankIDTextBox" MaxLength="11" />
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator runat="server" ValidationExpression="?" ControlToValidate="recipientBankIDTextBox" ErrorMessage="*" />
As far is I know SWIFT code must contain 5 or 6 letters and other symbols up to total length 11 are alphanumeric.
How to implement such rule properly? TIO
why this code would not find the label? It is in an update panel, if that matters. I put in a breakpoint and it was not found.
