Possible To Map A New File Extension To An Existing Handler
May 18, 2010
I have a scenario where my application is going to be publishing services that are consumed by both PC's and mobile devices, and I have a HTTPModule that I want to only perform work on only the mobile requests. So I thought the best way of doing this was to point the mobile requests to a different file extension and have the HTTPModule decide to process only if the request targets this new extension.
I don't need a custom HTTPHandler for the new extension; I want to program the services like a normal .ASMX service, just with a different extension.
First, can I do this? If so, how do I do it so that requests to my new extension are handled just like .ASMX requests?
Second, is this the right approach? Am I going about separating and managing the mobile vs. PC requests the wrong way?

What are some unintended consequences associated with mapping an ASP.NET HTTP Handler to a static extension like *.css?
<add verb="*" path="handler.css" type="Web.HttpHandler.ThemeCssHandler" />
By default, *.css is registered as static content in applicationHost (under IIS7):
<staticContent lockAttributes="isDocFooterFileName">
<mimeMap fileExtension=".css" mimeType="text/css" />
Aren't static requests normally handled more efficiently by IIS alone?
The key motivation is really to have dynamic CSS served under its known extension as opposed to something like *.axd (for simplicity and compatibility with OOTB cache policies); but we'd like to make sure this doesn't degrade the service of non-dynamic CSS requests.

Scenario: I have a bunch of web applications for which I want to add a simple ping functionality via http handler. Example: [URL]
Problem: For some of the applications this approach does not work becasue of custom HttpModule. These modules have some depedency on either authentication or some other processing logic due to which it makes the request invalid.
I am trying to find a solution to get this ping functionality work without making any changes to existing HttpModules.

I create custom HTTP handler for auto generating file and I want to tell IIS7 to serve current request like normal static file because I need to use IIS and web.config file to control compression setting and any other HTTP header of current requested file.I know. there is an internal class called StaticFileHandler in ASP.net. But I cannot access it. Or you have any other way to work like this.

Is there a way to add a file upload progress bar to the existing .net file uploader? I have an uploader on my site that has all kinds of things tied to it that I can't change to use an AJAX uploader. Or as far as I know I can't. So I was wondering if anyone knew how to add the progress bar to the asp.net uploader.

I was referring muddasar's one of the article for the validation. Below is my code and i am trying to validate the file upload selected file format on the submit button. I have 4 upload control and fu1 is mandatory field and others are not mandatory fields. Though i need to validate all the four uploads if the files have been selected. My full sample code is below for easy testing,
<asp:FileUpload runat="server" ID="fu1" />
<asp:Label ID="lblMessage1" runat="server"></asp:Label>
<asp:FileUpload runat="server" ID="fu2" />
<asp:Label ID="lblMessage2" runat="server"></asp:Label>
[code]...
I am doing slight mistake on the return to the main function. if i test indvidual function it works fine. whereas if i include the 4 functions in one function with the return statement, it's not validating. goes to to the server.

Okay, maybe it's a bit pedantic, but do ASP.NET user controls HAVE to have an ascx extension?
My reason for wanting to know this is purely academic. I made the statement to someone that they usually have an ascx extension, but then I had the curious thought of if that was always true or not.

I'm trying to let the user download different documents where the data is stored in an SQL DB. In firefox, the filetype is correctly read, but not in IE. I'm trying to do this without having to set the ".pdf" or whatever extension the document has, because I haven't got that information. I only have the filetype.
