Web Forms :: Mailing The Contents Of A Webpage?
Jan 13, 2011
For a project I am working on, I need to implement a button that would send the contents of a webpage to an e-mail address that could be specified.
Normally I would do this by querying the actual contents from a database, and then generating a custom layout for the mail.
In this case, though, I am pressed for time and I can't spend a lot of time on creating x amount of different layouts (different page types) for the mails to be sent, so I started looking into a html scraper instead, such as WebClientand/or HttpWebRequest.
There are however a couple of things I would need to take into account:
1) I am not entirely sure if it's a good idea to let the website actually "stream" data over the net by going to the request's url.Doing it over localhost isn't a possibility either, as the actual "site" depends on the hostname used.
2) I would like to use custom css, more specific the print.css which was already made and would look good enough in a mail.
If anyone knows how I would best go about getting the generated html in the layout that I require, while taking into account the few notes that I've made, feel free to say so.If you are completely sure that just generating the new html for the mail at runtime even though it may take more time to design is the way to go, by all means do say so as well.

For a certain project I need to be able to send the contents of a webpage to people who enter their e-mail address somewhere. For this I've scoured the internet and came upon a couple of possible sollutions. The first would be to use a scraper which would just look up the webpage and then mail the html contents to someone. The problem with this is that internet html (and more importantly css) and mail html might be completely different things when you look at outlook. This also takes the entire masterpage with it, while I pretty much just want the inner content.
Second sollution was completely rebuilding the pages in my mail function, based on a few given parameters. Seeing as there's many different types of pages that need to be sent, this would take ages to do...
Last sollution I came upon was manually calling rendercontrol. This actually seemed like a viable way of doing this, but of course, things go wrong. The structure of the website is as follows: Masterpage includes default.aspx, default.aspx has a placeholder which gets filled with a control I manually load (loadcontrol(path)) based on what page I need. This control is the one I need. My way of trying to render this control to send through mail is the following: first, I create a page, then I'll load the user control and finally I use UC.RenderControl(writer)
This does give me the basic html lay-out, but it seems that the Page_Load isn't being called, causing none of my variables to actually be filled in. Is there any way I can cause the control to be rendered just as if it were rendered inside a page's lifecycle?

It'll be hard to explain, but here goes...I have a 3-col table that measures 1200px wide... the middle column measures 800px and includes all the contents, and both remaining rows measure 200px each and have "nice-to-display-but-optional" images (each has a 200px image).On a 1400px display, my table will display with no problems. On the other hand, if the screen is 1000px, then it'll display the scrollbars so it can fit the 1200px of contents.
How can I set the table (or any other html container) so that a 1000px screen only displays what fits on the screen without displaying the scrollbar?In this case, a 1000px would display the middle 800px column, and whatever fits on the sides (half of the 200px images). But the scrollbars would not be displayed, and the images would not be altered so that they fit in the remaining space.

I would like to allow users to call my ruby on rails app as a service which returns a 'div' with html content in it, and embed that div into their app (which will not be a rails application).
For example, assume someone has their own php website that has a header/footer template that gets rendered, and a content area of the page that they need to fill based on some html I generate in my rails app. I would like to allow them, from php, to call to my website, get the 'div' I generate, and embed that as html in their php page.
What I'm trying to do is host a service on my site that returns some html content, but actually show that content as part of another site, so that the end user only sees the other site and never really knows about mine.
Also, I can use javascript on the client to do this if that is the only way, but I would prefer the php app to handle this at the server if possible so the client gets the html embedded from the original server and it looks like it all was generated by the php script that generated the entire page. I also want to avoid using an iframe.

I have three panels.Right,Middle and Left. controls in the panel right and left are dynamically loaded. the middle panel is just a separator ,that contains only text saying "else" which should come exactly in the middle of two panels.
how to set the middle panel ?
since right and left panels are dynamically loaded with controls , it is very difficult to set the text of the middle column.

I am implementing a web form, and when a checkbox is clicked, contents of the form are changed (i.e. additional checkboxes are being selected), and webform is refreshed to show the new contents. however, instead of displaying new contents within the original IE window, a new IE window is openned with new contents, and the old window remains there without any content update. i did not request for window.open or provide a _blank to specifically indicate a redirect should go to a new IE window. I just want the original IE window being refreshed to reflect the content changes. i have worked with asp.net for years and i think that be default refresh of the webform to reflect new changes always stay in the same IE window and thus never pay attention on how to open or surppress a new IE window? i think it is some config, but don't know what config and where i should look for it.
