Web Forms :: Auto Generating Hyperlink With Contents Of Folder?
Jan 18, 2010
Is it possible to generate hyperlinks from the contents of a folder... i.e. parses the folder takes the name of the file makes it a hyperlink (removing the .pdf, .doc. etc). I could have sworn I read something about this once, but I'm not finding it.
I am working on a small website for project management.There are around 15 database tables. Since i will be using asp.net 2.0, I wont be able to use LINQ.I need to finish the development of the website in a very quick manner.How do i generate the data access layer automatically. I found NHibernate as one solution, but it seems too difficult for such a small project.
Im trying out the Hudson Continuous Integration. After the build is executed i want to copy the content of the ReleaseBuild to another website on the server.This should be possible i guess but i cant seem figure it out.I know this can be done in nAnt and msbuild but i need to make Hudson do it, eg plugin or something.
We store backup archives in subfolders of a folder on one of the server's external USB drive. I would like to have an ASP.NET app read the contents of this folder so the manager can view the backup files to confirm backups are working and optionally delete these backup files when an old drive is reconnected so it can be used for the next weeks backups.
This backup folder is oubviously outside the server's webroot. Is there some way I can grant authority so the ASP.Net app can access this folder for this purpose? I would be using VS Web Express, so can't create any signed packages and such.
I want to read the contents of a remote folder(s) but i only know the date part of the folder name, the other part of the folder name is a timestamp that is different everytime. I'm thinking that i need to do something with the last modified/created date attribute to get the correct folder but i am unsure on how to do this.
Before I get too far down the road I just want some advice. I'm building a web app using VWD2008 and MySQL 5. I've got the membership provider stuff working fine and have an odbc connection setup which works "fine". what I've noticed is that when I configure a new sqldatasource (that will be used to provide data to a listview or something) the Advanced -> generate Insert,Update..... option is disabled. I'm assuming its because of the sql syntax difference of the square brackets issue between MS SQL Server and MySQL.
Before I start writing all my own insert and update statements does anyone know if there is a way to get MySQL and VWD to talk the same language, maybe a different connector or something. I'm using mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.15
Is it possible for a webpage to popup a open folder dialog, ask the user to select a folder, then show the contents of that folder in a list(or something) in the webpage. It won't write to the files, only read them. The webpage is hosted remotely.
i want to create a tree view for displaying folder hierarchy
my database about folders is in sql server so there is no option in tree view for sqlserver its just showing the xml database how can i create such structure its similar to windows explorer.
ive been running around in circles trying to figure this one out... lets say i have an images folder, and i want to output the contents of that folder into XML, so i can then bind that to a datasource.
At first I got an error that the user did not have permission to read the config file (web.config). So I gave NETWORK SERVICE and IIS_IUSRS read on the website folders.
But now vistors can not access images and other static content from the Content folder without logging in. Aspx and .ashx content works however static content is redirected to the login page.
I know you can add an existing item(s), but is there a way to add an Existing folder (and contents) to a project? It sucks without this option. I need to add a folder that has many folders and a lot of content.
I am using the membership provider and am reasonably comfortable that all of my web pages are safe.Some of the pages contain hyperlinks to documents (pdf, xls, etc.) stored in a folder under the root of the web site. I have disabled the ability of users to anonymously list folder contents, but I don't see a way to keep anonymous users from accessing the documents if they know the specific URL for that document. Example; if the document contains a spreadsheet of current sales, I don't want an ex-employee (who captured the URL while working here) to be able to bring up the current document.asswording the documents isn't a good choice because there are hundreds and we'd like to avoid changing them all every time someone leaves, or weekly, or whenever...Is there a way to restrict access to all contents of a web folder to people who have been authenticated?
The oddity is, that the same website files, copied and pasted, connection string altered to point to the production/live db, published to the httpdocs folder works fine BUT the same web files, copied and pasted, connection string altered to poin to the dev db, published to the subdomains/dev fodler causes the error below:
------ Build started: Project: AHN, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------ AHN -> P:Web_DevelopmentxxxDEVinxxx.dll ------ Publish started: Project: xxx, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------ Connecting to ftp://xxx.co.uk/subdomains/dev/httpdocs... Transformed Web.config using Web.Debug.config into objDebugTransformWebConfig ransformedWeb.config. Copying all files to temporary location below for package/publish: objDebugPackagePackageTmp. Deleting existing files... An error occured trying to enumerate the contents of folder ''. Can't open data connection (425). ========== Build: 1 succeeded or up-to-date, 0 failed, 0 skipped ========== ========== Publish: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========
When I asked the hoster whats going on, he obsiously that its not his fold because the publishing is working for the non-subdomain (dev) site. Moreoever I deleted and recreated the /dev subdomain but the error is the same.
Here I trying to open a folder location through my save path in database. I binded a gridview with a hyper link as a template column. In hyperlink's Navigationurl proprty I write this
NavigateUrl = '<%Eval("ProjectPath") %>'
It's working fine with path which doesn't have spaces like D:/Myprojects/Project1. But if this path wud like be D:/Myprojects/Project 1, it doesn't work. how to come over this.
I have a designer working on several pages in Dreamweaver. The designer is creating .aspx files with the Page directive at the top. These are getting shipped to me and I'm adding them to the Visual Studio ASP.NET WebForms Web Application Project. The problem is that there's no code-behind file by default, and I'm trying to find a shortcut to have them autogenerated as if I've added a fresh page from Visual Studio.
I don't know much about the .Net environment, so my first idea was to just write a console app that scans the folder for new content, and then emails alerts out. Then put the .exe as a scheduled task on the server, executing every few minutes. This seems pretty archaic to me though. Is there a more elegant way to do this for my website?
When I make an asp.net web application and add class libraries to the solution, the website project itself has a folder with the same name/contents as the class library.
Eg I make a web application called Test, add a project which is a class library, to the solution, called testAbc, and then there is a folder at the root of the website project called testAbc with the contents of the class lib.

I read why this happens in a book a while ago but can't quite remember now.
