In my asp.net application I create pdf file and save it in App_Data folder on server. Next I want to open this file that user can print it.
How to open this file in browser ? Send it in http header etc ? Someone have some examples?
There are bunch of files stored in a DataBase as varbinary/image data. I am writing a program to extract these file data and send them to the browser so file can be opened or saved. My method is,
[code]....
BUT this method creates a file in the Server and then transmit to the browser. Means 100s of files will be created in the server when I open 100s of files with this process, naturally I want to avoid that.
Is it possible to do this without creating a copy of the file in the server ?
I have created a pdf file using aspose and need to open it without saving the pdf.Is it possible.
View 1 RepliesI have a project where we need to launch a browser window from a desktop application and provide the newly opened page with XML data for it to process before the page fully renders itself.
Sub WinAppButton_Click
'Generate xml data
'Open url in browser and post xml to the page without any visible http request arguments showing.
End sub
Handling the xml data from the page_load is easy enough. Getting the initialization data to the page is the problem.
I have many xml file in xmlfolder under the root director of my project. I need to protect all file to not let it open from the client browser.
My file have some credential information, and i need avoid to let it open in client browser.
I have the following code below to open up a PDF file within the browser :
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline;filename=abc.pdf");
Response.WriteFile();
Response.End();
My question is, when this opens up in the browser, it takes over the whole page. Is there a way to limit the height? The reason I'm asking is, I have three menu items above the page to open up a specific pdf. So if I click on one of the links to view that pdf, the pdf show up, but the links disappear because of the PDF.
I also don't want to use iframe to populate the PDF.
From Service method return me:
String FileName,
Byte[] FileData,
string FileType( includes: doc, pdf, tif, tiff, gif, jpg, jpeg, png, bmp, wpd)
How can I generate a file based on filetype and show it to user in browser?
I am using following code for opening file in file dialog model.
FileStream fs;
String strFileName = @"C:My ExternalFile Path";
fs = File.Open(strFileName, FileMode.Open);
Byte[] buffer = new byte[1048576];
long bytBytes = fs.Length;
fs.Read(buffer, 0, 1048576);
fs.Close();
Response.AddHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + strFileName);
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
Response.End();
When click on open button the file is opening in same window, but i want to open in new window.
I'm new to asp.net and C# really, mostly just done windows apps in VB.net.
Also, trying to move from Crystal Reports to SSRS.
I found some code to render a SSRS report as a pdf. But this is saving the pdf locally. I have code that opens the report after it's saved, in the browser.
Rather than save the "results" locally, how to I go about just opening file in the browser.
Code:
results = rsExec.Render(format, deviceInfo,
out extension, out encoding,
out mimeType, out warnings, out streamIDs);
[code]...
We have a tab delimited file that we are making available for download. The file extension is txt, but the users want it to open automatically in Excel. The previous developer had used the following code:
[code]....
The ContentType is being set to Excel, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. I am guessing the txt file extension is causing it to be picked up by notepad or the like instead. I have tried just renaming it to a xls extension, which works but Excel complains that I am trying to trick it or it might be a corrupted file.
i have an aspx page that loads and displays a text file in a broswer window and it used to work, I made no changes to it and now testing shows additional content appended below the file.
Here is the text file:

Here is what is displayed:

The additional output looks like the aspx page itself, which has only a close button incase the file load fails.

View 1 RepliesI'm looking for possible ways for sending files from browser to server.
One obvious way is using form with enctype='multipart/form-data'.
I wonder if there are other ways than this.
The reason I ask you this question is this file uploader: http://aspnetajax.componentart.com/control-specific/upload/features/core_features/WebForm1.aspx
It's not flash based, but it sends the file in a way that it gives you a progress bar, but when you send a file with form with enctype='multipart/form-data' the whole file will be send to the server so you can't actually show a progress bar of uploading process.

Is it possible to send a binary file file from client to server using ajax???
am using ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") to get a binary file from client. I need to send the binary data to server.
this is my problem:
I have a link to Open a file (I have found this way cause with a simple link it would have been marked "readonly")
<a href="../DownloadFile.aspx?file=test.xls"> Open file
</a>
The code in the .aspx page permit to download the file with the header
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=" & file.Name)
So when the user click the link he is prompted wiht a Message box saying:
Open Save
The user click Open...modify the excel cells... but when he wants Save the file (from Excel menu) is saved on a temporary folder on the client pc and not on the server.
Is it possible to save the file directly on the server or not?
Ps. The "real" problem might be that when the user click "Open" in the prompt tha file is first downloaded in the temp folder and then presented to the user
