MVC UrlHelper.RouteUrl To Provide The Full Path On The Server?
Mar 28, 2011
I'm currently doing something in OrchardCMS we're using URLRewrite so that if a user comes to the site from site.com or from site.com/orchard, they get the site.com/orchard page. One of the problems is that it's throwing the urls in the menu because it's using urlHelper.RouteUrl which uses the wrong context and then produces a url like site.com/page1 rather than site.com/orchard/page1. Is there either a way to tell urlHelper.RouteUrl to start from a different page than the current one, or to get the function to return the full path?
in my case. iam replacing some data in document and saving in client side. so itz automaticaly saving in thw client side(normally in the Temp folder). i want to get that full path from the client side.
I have a VS 2008 web application that I need to capture the full file path (directories and file name) from the selected file. So user selects a file and then clicks on one of the buttons which transfers control to my code for processing. So how do I get the file path? I can get the file name, but not the path.
in my code when i look at txtLocalResource.PostedFile.FileName it returns only the filename, the rest of the path is missing? i am using ie8 and vs2010.
I have already create special folder to copy default picture for new user and put it inside that folder.
I have used copy method (system.io.file) to do that and works fine but I have to give full path for two required parameters of copy method for example:
I am trying to select one image file from desktop with file upload control. but i am not able to get the full path of the image if it is selected from desktop. i am getting full path if the file is selected from any other place but its showing error for the desktop.
am a newbie to programming so please bare with me!I introduced a file upload control on one of my pages. There is a button click event for the upload which triggers not only the upload but also an insert into a table in my database.Every aspect of the button click event for this upload is working as expected; however I do have a couple of queries because the results are not quite as I would like them. I am using asp.net 3.5 and C# in code behind page.
I have a simple table with 3 columns in my database: Username, PhotoTitle and PhotoUrl. In the button click event I grab the PhotoUrl like such -string photoUrl = FileUpload1.PostedFile.Filename; (I am using the photo url from my images folder in the application to show photos in Gridviews etc. I prefer this to storing the actual image in the database for the moment until i am a bit more experienced since i don't know much about varbinary dbtype.). When the button is clicked for the upload, the details of the photo are saved in the database table, but it's the full path of the file on my laptop which is store (C:/Documents/.../filename.jpg) opposed to "Filename.jpg" for example, which i obviously would prefer because in the application photos are displayed using the"~/images/Filename.jpg" path. How can I save the file name with the extension alone in my table (without the full path)?
The second problem is basically regarding the actual photos being uploaded. They are"saved as" inside folder for the solution as anticipated, but only on the laptop harddrive, which means that I have to manually drag each photo uploaded into the images folder within Solution Explorer, from a Windows Explorer window, in order to be able to display them in Gridviews etc (with the "~/images/Filename.jpg" call in the .aspx code). This is not acceptable of course since the site users would expect to see their photo after the upload, and they would not be able to drag the file into the ~/images/ folder. How can I get round this second slight problem; i.e. is there a way to upload photos directly in the folder so that they show directly on the solution explorer?I hope my explanations of those two little problems I have didn't confuse you all?
I am trying to write a page to read the Excel file provided by the user. I know I can't use the FileUpload to get the full path of the file from the client PC. This give me the problem when I write the connection string for the Excel file:
[Code]....
Without the full path, I can't replace the Data Source by a variable and I definitely can't assume all users will have their Excel files named Book1.xls located in C:Doc all the time.
In the previous version of our application we worked one we used MVC 1, so no area's. Following the ASP.NET MVC Best Practices by Kazi Manhur, I Created Extension methods of UrlHelper to generate your url from Route
Now with the new version, we are using MVC 2 and Areas. I was just wondering if one should implement it as before or have a new "best practice" regarding this emerged?
What I'm doing right now is:
1) Create a route in my area's route registration:
[Code]....
2) Creat an UrlHelper Extension method:
[Code]....
3) then just call it like this:
[Code]....
While typing this I started wondering what is the use of the ID you specify for the Area route..cant one just call the route using that?
I have an Async File Uploader control inside a Repeater which is inside an update panel. Now,I am uploading the file into ftp,so I am not uploading the video file,using SaveAs() method. For uploading the file in ftp,I have this UploadFile method which takes these four parameter:FileName, UploadPath, FTPUser, FTPPassword.Now this FileName,I have to send the full file path. My UploadComplete event looks like this:
<pre lang="cs">protected void AsyncVideoUpload_UploadedComplete(object sender, AjaxControlToolkit.AsyncFileUploadEventArgs e) {//VideoPath is a session variable VideoPath = string.Empty; if (AsyncVideoUpload.HasFile) { // string filepath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName; string filepath = e.filename;//above two captures only the file name,but I want the total path,like c:/MyDocuments/... UploadFile(filepath, "ftp://172.20.117.102","test","Value*12"); VideoPath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName; } }</pre>
