Web Forms :: Restrict Download File More Than One At A Time From Any Hyperlink?
Feb 10, 2010
suppose i have four hyper link in my page if user click on any hyper link then a file will be downloading in client machine. if user click on 4 links one after one then 4 file will be downloading in client machine. so i want that if user click first time on any link then a file will be downloading and if user click on second link when first file is downloading then i want to show a message to user that already one file is downloading from your IP and stop second file download. when first file download will be completed if then user click on second or any other link then another file will download in client pc. when file is downloading in client pc then we have no control over it and ever we not being able to know when download complete. so it is getting hard for me to implement by code.
i think from my question anyone can understand what i want that at a time one user can download one file at a time and will be able to download next file when first file has been downloaded in client pc.in this way i can restric the user to download large files more than one at a time. how to implement this with code in asp.net.
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've always been required show download size next to the file hyperlink. Only the file in question is rebuilt everyday and the file size can change often. So needless to say the size has been wrong for months. I'm not going to update our site daily to display needless info.
instead of
<a href="file.xxx">click here to download (20mb)</a>
I'd prefer
<a href="file.xxx">click here to download [sizeof('file.xxx')]</a>
The best solution would be javascript based or similar.
i want to show info like how much time will be requited to download file in client machine. every client will have different internet speed so how can i detect and show time required to download file in client machine. is it possible in asp.net.
i was just wondering how one would approach creating a link that would be active for 24 hours for a user... ie i have in the db a time of confirmation and then wanted to make a download active for them for 24 hours and deactivate it post then.
I am downloading file from database using the following code. This code downloads an excel file from the database which has a macro attached to it when it is opened. This macro reads file name of the excel file and uses it for its computation. Everthing works file if user saves the file on his harddisk and then open if but if he directly opens the file from the dialog(by hitting 'Open' button) then file name of the opened excel file comes out be the name of the webform that has the above code and this leads to error in the macro. Is there any option through which i can control the name of the file if user directly opens the file from dialog or the option to disable or remove 'Open' button form the dialog?
I'm about to submit my pad file to multiple sharware sites but the pad file has to have a direct link to the download file and can't link to a download page which is what I would like to do, so I can track the traffic and get the downloader's email before allowing the download. I am running an ASP.NET site in VB. Is there a way to tell the web app to redirect to a specific aspx page when it receives a request for a specific file?
Got this question, probably simple to most people but I only just started using visual studio 2008 with c#
Create a 'contact us' web page (form) for your photocopier repair company that links dynamically depending on the current time. The linked pages should give details of support engineer contacts for different regions, during normal working hours and when the offices are closed.
You should use the HyperLink control to link to different pages (depending on the time of day.) At or after 5:00 p.m., the HyperLink control links to a page named AfterHoursHelp.aspx and before 5:00 p.m., it links to OfficeHoursHelp.aspx.
I would like to restrict what they see in the file upload dialog, which is set to "All Files" by default. I understand how to validate that they only uploaded a certain file type, that is not the question here. I would just like to know how to default the file type in the file selection dialog.

I have a webform that has a master page. In the web form I have a dropDownList it has PostBack=True, cause every time I changed the option I concat paratemer (item choosen) at hyperlink's navigate url property, for example I have 2 items:
id text 1 Option1 2 Option2
If the users select Option1 then concat at the url "?option=1" The problem is, that when I choose one option and then click at hyperlink everything goes right, but at the second time I choose an option the browser try to download de page itself aspx. update: even if I click at other hyperlink or link button after choose an option and click the hyperlink, the same thing happens (the browser ask me for download the page aspx)
I have no idea how to avoid this behavior at browser and it happens just at server with the IIS not while I'm testing at VS2008, update: ah I almost forget, if I click "cancel" at the prompt of firefox, then everything goes right again, until the next time I choose other option and click at the hyperlink, then everything goes wrong again...
