SQL Server :: How To Best SQL Datatype For Storing HTML
Oct 1, 2010
I'm using Cute Editor for ASP.NET for the first time, and it's occasionally refusing to insert or update a record. Basically the records are just composed of a bunch of HTML and text. So far I can't detect a pattern to the problem and I'm wondering about my data type.
I tried VARCHAR(MAX), NVARCHAR(MAX), and NTEXT, doesn't seem to fix it.
So what is the best SQL data type for HTML?
And could that be causing CuteEditor to refuse to insert/update records? Or something else?

I have a column with nvarchar datatype storing the date. I am using a Gridview to display and edit data of that table. Now when I update the table the nvarchar column containing date in the format mm/dd/yyyy gets converted to Jun 9 2010 12:00AM format. I don't want this to be happening. I don't understand why this is happening as I don't have datetime column.

I am storing small webpages in html format in a varchar(max) column in MS SQL server 2008. Now I want the gridview to show the column as a button/hyperlink such that when I click it, I will be redirected to a new webpage which will render the html in the table corresponding to that row.
I tried using the buttonfield control but there doesn't seem to be any way I can access the datafield and underlying html in that case.

I'm building a page in asp.net that will use tiny mce to provide a rich text editor on the page. Tiny mce outputs the rich text as html which I would like to save to a database. Then at a later date, I want to pull the HTML from the database and display it in a page.
I'm concerned about allowing malicious html, js tags into my database that would later be output.
I should html encode/decode etc. to prevent a persistent xss attack and or sql injection attack?

<SelectParameters>
<asp:Parameter Name="testdate" DbType="Date" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
and the result should filter on the basis of testdate

testday = System.DateTime.Now.Day.ToString();
testmonth = System.DateTime.Now.Month.ToString();
testyear = System.DateTime.Now.Year.ToString();
testdate.Text = testyear.ToString() + "-" + testmonth.ToString() + "-" + testday.ToString();

i need to save multiple documents stored in SQL server as Image type to disk.
What i want to do is "backup" all files in a table (column) to disk, zip them and Response.TransmitFile(FilePath) to client.
I could use C# ot VB but that would require a lot of connections to database or a lot of server memory and i don't want that, becauze there are a lot of files to be saved Since SQL can write files to disk i was thinking about saving those files to disk directly from sql. Something like when u're doing a backup
[Code]....

title isn't as detailed as I hoped but I have a few questions. Traditionally I've always been a mixed mode person, storing PDFs and other things into the file system with pointers from my SQL DB to them.
Recently I've heard more people storing files into the DB directly and wonder if I'm storing files around 100-200MB in size, will I run into a lot of issues? Are there ways to compress the files other than perhaps zipping them up and storing the zip?
Finally, something I've always wondered about but never really found a good work around for... if I decided to continue with the mixed-mode storage solution, and these I need to retrieve these files for use on a website, how do I secure these files so that someone can't just randomly come and retrieve these files off the server by guessing files names, etc?
I did one work around once where I stored a set of PDFs to a non-web directory like c:pdf and setting permissions for the web account to access them. This allowed me to retrieve them using the references in the DB and provide some garbled filename so people couldn't retrieve it themselves but this all seems rather complicated.

I have a File Uploader in my ASP.NET application Using C#, we can upload any type like images, documents, pdf etc.
I m storing it in the Filesystem and having only the Name of the File in DB.My doubt is can we store the entire file, images in DB. State me Which is good practice and why we need to use it.
Either file System Storage or SQL DB Storage.

Have a question about the best approach for file storage in a SQL database. I have a table called Widgets, and each row in the Widgets table can have multiple files. I also have another table called Extensions, and again each record in this table can have many files.
Here is what I am considering:
Approach #1:
[Code]....
That approach is very simple and easy to use, but I feel that I could merge the two file tables into one, then use lookup tables:
Approach #2:
[Code]....
The thing is, there are no duplicate or shared files between the two types of objects. So even though I feel better about approach #2, I am concerned that I may be adding additional complexity (and using more server resources to perform the joins), than needed.
