C# - Automatically Open File After Downloading In Silverlight 4?
Dec 9, 2010
I am creating an excel spreadsheet server side and downloading to the client via a Silverlight front-end. It is started by the user clicking a button and being presented with a SaveFileDialog. Once the user enters a file name then silverlight starts an asynchronous call to a web service and when finished returns a byte array which is written to wherever the user requested to save it. This all works fine.How do I then automatically open this file on the client's PC?

http://www.google.com/googlebooks/uspto-patents-applications-yellowbook.html ( you can see a lot of zip files there )
so my question is What script i have to write(i got no experience in writing any script, so what can you suggest?) so i can download the zip file programmatically? then how should i make it to download the new zip file uploaded weekly?Is it i have to use DOM...unix? if yes, i will do some research on tat to make it work.

i have two tasks to accomplish. There are several pdf files (invoices) sitting in web server. My tasks are 1) enabling Olga to download multiple invoices into her local computer WITHOUT prompting any dialog box. 2) printing these files then automatically by default local printer from her desktop computer. How is possible this? She has birthday soon. No gift could be better than this solution as she has to open each pdf separately and hit print button about 40 times a day.

This is more of a question about best pattern and practice than asking about any one particular method. We have app that is heavily reliant on dates and times and is hosted in the US. Sometimes it needs to perform actions based on those values, like emailing out reminders and expiring "single-use" session tokens.However there are clients around the globe that need to access this app and have the dates and times display relative to their local time.Clearly the solution should be to store the dates on the server side in a single time zone (UTC?) and then convert them back and forth from the local time settings of the user.We are using silverlight 4 on the client and the ria services 1.0 stack over linq2sql on the server side. I am hoping someone knows if there is a way to automate this localization of date and time as much as possible and if so, what is the pattern to use for this. Ideally we don't want to have to do a DateTime.ToLocalTime() every time we need to use a date. This has to be a common situation.Is there a way to automatically shift dates and times into the client's local time zone on SL4?

The Silverlight app has a link to a different group of reports. This *was* working fine but no more. In the following code you can see the 'Reports' part that it calls another page [URL] namely right here: WHat is happening is when the reports page is called, it goes into 'Session timeout ' right away.
<
StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"
VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Right"
Margin="5, 1">
<HyperlinkButton x:Name
="ReportsLink"

I have made an application where I am displaying the .pdf , .doc , .docx files. These files are uploading from an Admin Panel.When user place a mouse pointer on download icon provided in front of every file, it shows the complete path where it’s get saved.I want to avoid this path visibility even when user place mouse on download icon and even if it Inspect an element (as most modern browser will have this functionality).

we are working on a file download page. We want to download a file with a name with spaces and accents. Although the filename is shown correctly on the filedownload dialog, when we click open, the file name is shown with %e1%ba%a3n%20... on notepad. ('Save as' shows the correct name) This problem only happens in Internet Explorer.
Is there anyway we can Display the file name correctly (on the target application) after opening it (without saving) from file download dialog ?
We use this code to set the filename :
fileName = Server.UrlPathEncode(fileName);
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="" + fileName + """);

I am working on a http based (NOT Secure) Web Application. In this, I have provided a provision to add some appointment to the Client's outlook calendar. I am creating the .vcs file dynamically when clicked on a hyperlink. The code of generating .VCS file is:
string calendarFormat = GetVCSFormat();
Response.ContentType = "text/calendar";
Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=MyCalendar.vcs");
Response.Write(calendarFormat);
Response.End();
It is working fine in all browsers except IE. It is giving me following error:Internet Explorer cannot download GenerateAppointment.aspx from server. Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.

I'm trying to write come code for users to download files, but the files are located above the webroot (e.g. c:downloads)
I've found some code online that allows me to download a file via a url parameter/argument which is perfect, but the files need to be located within the website structure.
<%@ Page language="vb" runat="server" explicit="true" strict="true" %><script language="vb" runat="server">Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)Dim strRequest As String = Request.QueryString("file") '-- if something was passed to the file querystringIf strRequest <> "" Then 'get absolute path of the fileDim path As String = Server.MapPath(strRequest) 'get file object as FileInfoDim file As System.IO.FileInfo = New System.IO.FileInfo(path) '-- if the file exists on the serverIf file.Exists Then 'set appropriate headersResponse.Clear()Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" & file.Name)Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString())Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"Response.WriteFile(file.FullName)Response.End 'if file does not existElseResponse.Write("This file does not exist.")End If 'nothing in the URL as HTTP GETElseResponse.Write("Please provide a file to download.")End IfEnd Sub</script>
Source: http://www.xefteri.com/articles/show.cfm?id=8
how this can be modified so that it can access files outside the webroot?
I'd like it so that I can create an href like: <a href="download.aspx?file=test.pdf">Download File</a> and then the code will download the file from c:downloads est.pdf

I have VB code that parses XML data from a webpage. Up until 2 days ago the XML data could be viewed right on the page and I could just grab the HTML source code to get the information. Now they have changed the page to a link button to download the XML file.
The problem is that when I click on the XML link I get the 'File Download Prompt' which asks me to run or save the file. I figured I could just save the file to temp directory and then open it up to parse it in my VB app but I can't figure out how to grab the file from the browser in my application.

1. xml parsing error not well-formed --> this error is getting only in mozilla.

I have an export to excel functionality on my web application. WHen the user clicks the "Export to Excel" button, the file is created and it will ask the user to open it or save it to their local machine.
Since the file creation process takes a long time, I added the ajax update progress control. SO now, as soon as the user clicks the "Export to Excel" button, the progress bar image shows up, but after the file is created, I get the following error.
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the server could not be parsed.
I know that, if we use Response.write in the code behind, we get this error. But I have to use Response.Write because I am presenting the user with a prompt to save or open the newly created file. Is there any other way to do this?
The following is the aspx code.
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>
<asp:UpdateProgress ID="UpdateProgress1" runat="server">
<ProgressTemplate>

I'm downloading a file from my intranet site and on Chrome, it works as expected. But when I try it on IE, it crashes.
ASP.NET Code:
<a href="../nbd.exe">TEST</a></h2>
Is there something I need to do just for IE?
Also, it works fine in Opera and Firefox. So just IE...
