Web Forms :: Display Page And Then Download File?

Oct 25, 2010

I am trying to accomplish something that websites like CNET do for downloading.

When a button on a page is clicked I want the user to be taken to a page..called download.aspx, the whole page is displayed with information

like "your download is starting..." and then the file is presented to be download.

What I did.

In my main page on the button click event...I do a Response.Redirect("download.aspx"); and in the download.aspx page

load event I present a Response.TransmitFile("myfile.exe");

This doesnt work because the download.aspx is NOT rendered untill the whole download is finished.

HttpHandlers / Modules :: Redirect Shareware Download URL From A File To A Download Page?

Oct 13, 2010

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?

Javascript - Display Actual File Size Next To A Hyperlink Of A Document Or Download?

Jan 7, 2011

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.

How To Postback A Page After A File Download

Nov 18, 2010

The user click on a LinkButton, and the page does a PostBack. But I also need to prompt a file download to the user at the same time.

In order to do that, I did this on the LinkButton

lnkPrint.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open('Download.ashx?type=x')");

The Download.ashx Http Handler generates the file (Content-Type : application/pdf), and if I click on my LinkButton, it does PostBack and download the file after showing a popup... But I can't manage to close this popup automatically.

I tried some methods

settimeout('self.close()',1000) after the download Setting a RegisterStartupScript on the LinkButton.Command, to trigger the download after the postback, but IE6 prompts a warning that disturbs my users

So, none of these methods seems to work fine.

So, my question is : Is there a way to make the popup instantly disappear, or is there a means to make the page download the file AND postback at the same time ?

PS : I thought of the Your download will begin shortly method, but I'm afraid I'll have the same issues as before with the RegisterStartupScript...

C# - Update Page After File Download?

Oct 26, 2010

I put together a download script after some wonderful help from stack overflow the other day. However I've now found that after the file has been downloaded I need to reload the page to get rid of the progress template on the aspx page. The code to remove the template worked before I added in the download code.

Code to remove progress template: upFinanceMasterScreen.Update();
I've tried calling putting this before and after the redirect to the IHttpHandler
Response.Redirect("Download.ashx?ReportName=" + "RequestingTPNLeagueTable.pdf");

Web Forms :: Controlling File Name Of The File Opened Directly From File Download Dialog?

Jul 26, 2010

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?

Page To Download A File Requires Processing In Webclient?

Jan 11, 2011

I'm trying to use a java servlet in a 3rd party tool's web interface (CA service desk) to invoke it's download file functionality using a webclient in vb.net. The trouble is the text stream from response is markup and not the acutual text file stream.

It's like the page is redirecting to another page which actually presents the file for downloading. I have no idea what the redirected page URL is.

Is there a way I can process this redirected page in order to get at the download using a system.net.webclient?

How To Launch The Download Of A File Without Leaving The Current Page

Mar 2, 2011

How can I force the download of a file on a ASP.NET page using datas from that page's ViewState?

Response.ClearContent();
Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + "example.aaa");
Response.Write( this.ViewState["stuffs"] );
Response.End();

But if I do that the current page will be erased and return blank to the user.

Other examples says to create "download.aspx" and request it by javascript, but on a this new page I won't have access to the ViewState data of the first page.

The point is, how can I create a file, launch the download and don't lose the current page status?

Ajax - How To Return An Error From A File Download Action Without Leaving The Current Page

Jul 12, 2010

I am calling a file download action from javascript:

$elem.click(function() {
window.location.href = 'MyController/MyFileDownloadAction';
});

The controller returns a file:

[code]...

This action has a pretty high likelyhood of throwing an exception (or at least not being able to return the file).

Due to the nature of the application (which contains a lot of dynamic content), I can't really redirect to an error page in this situation. The current page needs to stay open somehow.

So I'm ideally looking for something like a javascript pop-up, but afaik this isn't going to be possible since I don't know any way to return a javacript instruction in a non-ajaxed controller call. If I display an error page I need to force it to open in a new window some how. Is there any possible solution to this problem?
