URL Encoding - Illegal Character Replacement?

Dec 24, 2010

I am doing some url redirections in a project that I am currently working on. I am new to web development and was wondering what the best practise was to remove any illegal path characters, such as ' ? etc.I'm hoping I don't have to resort to manually replacing each character with their encoded urls.I have tried UrlEncode and HTMLEncode, but UrlEncode doesn't cater for the ? and HTMLEncode doesn't cater for 'E.G. If I was to use the following:

Dim name As String = "Dave's gone, why?"
Dim url As String = String.Format("~/books/{0}/{1}/default.aspx", bookID, name)
Response.Redirect(url)

I've tried wrapping url like this:Dim encodedUrl As String = Server.UrlEncode(url)AndDim encodedUrl As String = Server.HTMLEncode(url)

C# - Character Replacement In String?

Feb 23, 2011

I do need a working ASP.NET C# code to replace characters in a string.

My following code works fine but in case of input "a" it gives me an output as "678d", but in case of input "c" the output is correct as it is i.e. "8d"... Here it automatically replaces the rest values too. I can see the code is executing in a step by step process... This results me to get an overloaded output.

{
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
builder.Replace("a", "6b");
builder.Replace("b", "7c");
builder.Replace("c", "8d");
return builder.ToString();
}

Now, I do need to replace "a" as just "6b" and it should not load the rest values.

C# - Character Encoding Problem Utf8?

Jan 14, 2011

I'm storing some html-encoded data in a sql server database and I've written a script to output the data in a csv format minus the html tags and I'm getting a weird issue when html-decoding the remaining data. For example the data contains a quote character (which is html-encoded as ’), but when I try to html-decode it the data comes out as a series of weird characters (’). Does anyone know how to solve this issue? The output encoding of the page is UTF-8 if that helps.

Web Forms :: Turkish Character Encoding - Set Page

Jan 4, 2010

For some reason the encoding on my website has gone wrong. Turkish characters that were working before are now coming out in '?'. I have not touched anything. Our regular developer is away so I'm not sure if he touched anything. The text has been working on this page till recently and on the previous years page. That has now been affected to. I have set the following statement in the <head> section:

< meta
http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Unicode UTF-8 has worked in the past.

When I view the encoding in Internet Explorer 8 tools menu it is saying 'Western European(ISO)'. In my test environment, encoding is showing up as Unicode UTF-8 and hence the code is correct. So my question is, why is the encoding change to Western European (ISO) and how can I change?

InvalidUserName In CreateUser When Creating User With Character Before The @ Character

I looked up the msdn documentation and it says that InvalidUserName is thrown when it does not find the username in the database, which is fine because the user I am creating should not exist in the database. If I use test@example.com, it works, but if I try it with test.@example.com, the status from Membership.CreateUser is InvalidUserName.

Convert A 40 Character SHA1 Hash To A 20 Character?

Mar 17, 2010

I have a legacy MySQL database which stores the user passwords & salts for a membership system. Both of these values have been hashed using the Ruby framework - roughly like this:

hashedsalt =
Digest::SHA1.hexdigest("--#{Time.now.to_s}--#{login}--")
hashedpassword =
Digest::SHA1.hexdigest("#{hashedsalt}:#{password}")

So both values are stored as 40-character strings (varchar(40)) in MySQL. Now I need to import all of these users into the ASP.NET membership framework for a new web site, which uses a SQL Server database. It is my understanding that the the way I have ASP.NET membership configured, the user passwords and salts are also stored in the membership database (in table aspnet_Membership) as SHA1 hashes, which are then Base64 encoded (see here for details) and stored as nvarchar(128) data.

But from the length of the Base64 encoded strings that are stored (28 characters) it seems that the SHA1 hashes that ASP.NET membership generates are only 20 characters long, rather than 40. From some other reading I have been doing I am thinking this has to do with the number of bits per character/character set/encoding or something related.

So is there some way to convert the 40-character SHA1 hashes to 20-character hashes which I can then transfer to the new ASP.NET membership data table? I'm pretty familiar with ASP.NET membership by now but I feel like I'm just missing this one piece. However, it may also be known that SHA1 in Ruby and SHA1 in .NET are incompatible, so I'm fighting a losing battle.

C# - Finding Possible GetObjectsOfType Replacement

Feb 17, 2011

I have this small piece of code

var idObjects = Spring.Context.Support.ContextRegistry.GetContext()
.GetObjectsOfType(typeof (ICustomInterfaceThatDoesSomething));
foreach (ICustomInterfaceThatDoesSomething icitds in idObjects.Values)
icitds.DoSomething();

Is there a way i can avoid this by having spring.net automatically inject the singletons to a property i declare, like an array of ICustomInterfaceThatDoesSomething?

The only reason i want something like this is because i want to kill the .dll dependency on the project and this is the single point of usage.
