I'm going to be deploying an app in the near future on an IIS7 server, and would like to use the per-application URL rewriting settings in web.config, but this is not an ASP.NET application, so I have no need for anything superfluous.
What is the absolute minimum I need in my web.config in order to run my application and use URL Rewriting?
In ASP.NET MVC 2, how can I get the absolute path to the Content folder from within a model?I'm trying to check for the existence of a file by calling IO.File.Exists. So, I need to convert the "~ContentisFile.png" relative path to an absolute path.I tried getting the application's directory path by calling My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath but that returned some temporary folder that doesn't contain the Content folder.

I wanted to ask about URL rewriting. I want to map this: [URL]
To: [URL] Being DVD players product id 123.
Also I will like to map sub domains like this:
From: [URL]
To: [URL]
Being John Doe user id 123. I will like to do this by getting the respective ID (for products and users) from a database based on product id name (dvdplayers) and sub domain name (johndoe). Where can I intercept these 2 (sub domain string and product name string) and based on this getting the info from DB and "rewrite" the URL's?
I'm investigating a simple url rewriting setup for iis6 / net 2.0 sites.
I've added a . wildcard mapping in IIS that points to the .net executable. I'm also using the urlMappings element in the web.config to add some rewritten urls. I've moved the config outside of the web.config so I can make changes to the list without forcing application restarts, like so:
<urlMappings configSource="configurlMappings.config">
</urlMappings>
I'd like to allow our content management to add urls to this file so that we can have extensionless friendly urls. <add url="~/someurl" mappedUrl="index.aspx?page=123" />
This works just fine, but I'm concerned about limitations in the number of entries that I can map in the urlMappings config. I can't seem to find any documentation on this. Has anyone found any limitations?
I am working on url rewriting all is working fine on my local machine when i upload this site on production server the link of url rewrite which is extension less not work. i search the multiple solution in the google one solution is that insert the aspnet_isapi.dll in the properties->virtual directory tab->configuration->insert aspnet_isapi.dll site in working, but problem is that hosting provider refuse to add this dll. tell me alternate solution to add this dll from web.config file.
View 3 RepliesIn Application_BeginRequest method of global.asax I rewrite urls like this:

else if (fullOrigionalpath.ToLower().Contains("www.site2.com/home.aspx "))

Now I need to move all these rewritngs to web.config. I am going to use Intelligencia.UrlRewriter.
I am able to rewrite path only for one url:
<rewriter>
<rewrite url="~/home.aspx" to="~/Site1/Home.aspx" />
</rewriter>
How can I do this for multiple urls like to="~/variable name here/Home.aspx"?
I have set up url rewriting in my web.config with regex rules and it works correct for all html files.

View 8 RepliesMy site is going to display content based on a city. So, if a user comes directly to my site, I am going to default them to say for instance:
www.mysite.com/cincinnati
I need to be able to handle two scenarios here. One, when they come directly to my site ('/'), I need to somehow redirect to my default city and 2, show an error page if they type in an invalid city. Any thoughts? I saw the route constraint, but how do you deal with invalid scenarios like showing an error page when the constraint fails?
I'd like to set the default content-type for web pages in my ASP.NET MVC application to text/html.
I know this can be done by adding a ContentType="text/html" to all of my <%Page%> elements, but I'd prefer to use the web.config instead. How can I do that?
Edit: I know that "text/HTML" is the ASP.NET default, but for unknown reasons Opera still tries to parse my web site as XHML unless I explicitly set the content-type in my <%Page%> element.
Been browsing these pages for a while now and finally decided to say hi!I read about having an "Application controller" as mustinherit class for the actual controller to set content for the master page. But what I would like to do is to set some content to Master based on which actions are called on the controller.
For example..
/Backend/A1
... "Help content nr1 to master page"
/Backend/A3
/Backend/B1
... "Help content nr2 to master page"
/Backend/B10
And so forth. Ofcourse I could do this the "easy" way by just adding some clip on each of the actions. But I was wondering if there is a smarter way to do it. To check on the application controller which action is being called and select the "helpcontent" based on that to the Master.
I have developed an ASP.NET MVC 2 application on Framework 4. I have an 'Administration' link on the home page. My query is, what is the best approach of displaying the 'Administration' link only to the users in the role administrator and hiding it from others keeping in mind the Seperation of Concern bit.
View 2 RepliesI'm building an ASP.NET MVC 2 site where I'm using the OutputCache parameter heavily. However, I have a concern: using such caching may interfere with authentication.On all of my pages, I display whether the user is logged in or not. Furthermore, in some of my Views, I do filtering based on user role to determine whether or not to display some page content (for example, the Edit link on one of my pages is only shown to users in the roles of Moderator or Administrator)
View 2 RepliesI'm making a new design for my website, but I want to keep the old one and possibly switch between the two.
Unfortunately, I've changed the content on the Master Page (luckily I have a backup).
What I was thinking was to keep separate master files for each theme, and then just determine which one to server based on which stylesheet is loaded.
The only way I can think to do this is to keep a "settings" file on the website that has a "stylesheet=1/2/3/4/etc" line. Depending on the number there, the server will serve the correct master page.
Alternatively it might be easier to do something similar, but instead of serving a whole different master page, set a specific stylesheet to use.
I can read a text file (even encrypt/decrypt a file before and after it gets read for security), but actually giving the server the instructions based on what is read is where I'm lost.
would like to present users with unique content based on certain conditions being met as they land on the home page (default.aspx). The condition logic will be in the VB code behind Page Load event. The content will go in a content placeholder as specificed from the master page. However, the content change wouldn't be something small (ie making a panel or label visible or not) but rather it will be different HTML, Divs and databound gridview content. The HTML content will be stored in the database.
View 3 RepliesI would like to know how the HTML source of ajax based sites can be read using HttpWebRequest / HttpWebResponse (That is reading the contents of a website at server side). The problem that I'm facing is that I'm unable to read parts of the webpage which uses Ajax or stuffs like UpdatePanel.
My application is in ASP.NET / C#, so can't think of using stuffs like Browser control or mshtml.dll since I would not be able to serve multiple requests.

i am using MSSQL Server 2005 with VB in my codebehind. I have an application that I have written as a time tracking system that uses SQL Membership provider to secure the site with forms authentication. I want to add additional functionality to the site. My company has a intranet SharePoint site. I want to add something on the front page of the SharePoint site that will allow the users to clock-in/out without having to login to the application. I have a users table that is not part of the SQL Membership Provider that holds detailed information about the employees. There is a column in that table that identifies users as being able to use the clock-in system. I want to be able to display a clock-in/out button on the paged based on that column. Not all users have the ability to clock-in as their time does not need to be tracked.

I have a repeater control with a delete button on each row. I also have a link on the same page (not within the repeater) that I only want to be visible when the repeater contains at least one row.
My problem is that, when the delete button on the final row is clicked, this triggers a postback during which the ItemCommand event is called to process the delete click. However this event is processedafter the Page Load event in which I would normally render or not render the conditional link. So I don't know at the time I'm rendering the link whether the user has just deleted the last row.
Am I misunderstanding the chain of events or is there a better way of handling this? Could I, for example, determine from the Sender & e arguments available within the Page_Load event, that the postback has been triggered by clicking the delete button in the repeater? The only other way I can see of dealing with this is to force a second postback once the final row of the repeater has been deleted which seems like overkill.
I have a page with a Listbox and GridView.
The Listbox has a list of students. The Gridview has a list of classes offered during a period, such as:
Math Science English etc. When I click a student in the Listbox, I call a sproc via Linq, and get the ClassID and ClassTitle that student is registered for.
What I need to do is Highlight the record in the GridView that matches the ClassID or ClassTitle returned by the sproc.
Previously, I used a ListBox for the Class Offerings. This is easy with a Listbox using the FindByText method:

What is the right way to do this with a GridView?
