I have a webpage that allows a user to download a specified file. When the file is ready to be fully downloaded (i.e I call the HttpResponse.End or HTTPRepone.Flush) the user is presented with a File Download dialogue.
Is there any way to determine what option the user has selected?
Have they Opened, Saved or Cancelled the File Download once the Flush or End has been sent?
i am new to this, would like to ask how can i check which button user click when downloading file, either open, save or cancel ? I need to update to the Database after the user click the save/open button, if cancel, then do not do anythinghere is example of code:
void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
can we save pdf document without save,view,cancel dialogue box in asp.net..
View 1 RepliesI have a mail list where i can select many mails and download (with/without opening the mail). During the download process i update the mail status(download/open) and show the content in pdf. In normal browser dialog opens where user can save open or cancel options exits. But if the user cancel then the update process done on the mail should not happen. so i think about doing the update process if the user clicks open or save but how can i identity that client control (i think it depend on the browser)
The issue is present if i download and unopened mail and click cancel button in the dialog box the pdf creation code i have done is in this link

which i used to open that dialog in browser to save pdf
I've got a user modification page, that displays a list of reports a user has access to using a GridView object.
What I want to do is, if someone makes a bunch of changes to a users page, but then clicks cancel, all changes that are made will be undone. My main issue here is the GridView, which has add/delete/modify buttons, tied to a separate table.
So if I open my own page, add a new report to the gridview, then hit cancel, I don't want that report to be saved to my account.. Likewise, if I delete a record, and then hit cancel, the record is not deleted.
In our application, we allow user to upload documents which can be PDF, Doc, XLS, TXT. Uploaded documents will be saved on web server. We need to display link for each document user uploaded and when user click on that link, it should open relevant document. it is expected to have required software to open relevant documents.
To upload document, we use saveAs method of FileUpload control and it works absolutely fine.Now, how to view it?I believe, i need to copy/download file to local user machine and need to open it using Process.Start.For that i need to find user local temp directory. if i put path.GetTempPath(), it gives me web server directory and copy file there.
File.Copy(
sPath + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
Path.GetTempPath() + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
true);
I am downloading file in the asp.net application , where i need to hide the cancel button .i have to show only save button.
View 1 RepliesI have a web page that shows all contacts and its running fine.
When user doen not activity for some time and after that user clicks the button to download records, its shows message:
Validation of viewstate MAC failed I not getting where this problem arise and what to do to solve.
One imp thing, after being inactive for some time when I logout and then log in then its works fine.
I assume it can be session timeout problem, but dont know how to deal with it.
How do you do this in ASP.NET? Prefer VB.NET :) I have a file in my App_Data folder called test.mov. It's 500 megabytes. I want to create an ASPX page where it fetches the file, and then displays for a label the approximate download time depending on the user's connection.
It should say
File: test.mov
approximate download time for your connection: 15 minutes

I got a webpage where members can download different kind of files on. I wan't to get information about which files and how many times each member have downloaded. when the user want to download a file he get browser pop-up where he gets 3 choises: "Open", "save" and "Cancel (file dialog box in browser). i want to update the download status only if open/save button is clicked
Is there a way to detect which button was clicked on "save/open/cancel" dialog?
I want to display a confirm/ save message to user when he clicks the this works great. But instead of "are you sure you want to move" type option, I want to give the user the option to save changes now. So I want to call a sub in code behind which saves changes. This sub is currently fired by a seperate "Update" button. So
either call the sub or fire a button click event.

View 1 RepliesAfter submitting a form, the user is presented with a link to a pdf document. The link is straight to the document, it is not streamed.
If the user right-clicks and chooses 'save link as,' the document saves and opens fine. However, if the user just clicks on the link, the browser takes a very long time to respond (I'm going to guess it's 3 minutes) and then adobe reader gives the following error:
"the file is damaged and could not be repaired"
This is in Chrome v5, ASP.NET 3.5 and the link is returned inside an UpdatePanel.
I'm generating a PowerPoint file using this as reference. A user can search other users based on many criterias. Information based on the user is saved in the PowerPoint file. But I can't save all PowerPoint files on the server.So, the user needs to right click a link, choose "Save As...", and save the file locally.
Nothing should be saved on the server. I have been Googling, but I'm not sure what to look for.I seems I am a bad googler. I removed "powerpoint" from my search string, and there are a lot of hits.
