Web service API: I noticed that some companies like to pass integer as the "currency" amount, rather than pass a decimal data type with a decimal place ($ 100.29) is there a good reason why they choose integer for currency over decimal data type? Example, they do this
100 = $1.00
10043 = $100.43
Why not do this
1.00 or 1 = $1
100.43 = $100.43

I am using ASP.NET 2.0 and trying to use a simple Form to upload a file to a web service. I have the action attrib set to the url of my web service. However, in firefox, I can't see that it is making any call to that service at all. NOTE: I can throw int the below "Action" value to a browser minus the name of the web method and get a page showing the available web method so I believe the URL for the "Action" attribute is correct.
<form id="fileUpload" action="http://localhost/AcmeABC/services/FileUploadService.asmx/ImportRates" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" id="fileName" name="fileName" />
<asp:FileUpload runat="server" id="fileArray"/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
[WebService(Namespace = [URL]/")]
[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
[ToolboxItem(false)]
[ScriptService]
public class FileUploadService : System.Web.Services.WebService {
[WebMethod]
public void ImportRates(string fileName, byte[] fileArray) {
try {
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(fileArray);
}
catch (Exception ex) {
string error = string.Format("Error thrown for file {0} with {1} error.", fileName, ex);
}
}
How can I see what is going on since I don't see any call be made. I am also of the opinion that this might not be the best approach. I am new to the entire web development space so I am trying to find better ways of handling problems.
I need to write an asmx service that takes the xml file as input and also gives an xml as output which are validated using an xsd..
I was trying to read about the services that accept xml inputs and return xml outputs.. but all in vain, I couldn't find a proper tutorial and sample codes to work on..
Can anyone give some links to some nice tutorials and samples with asmx services accepting xml data and returning xml data..
This might be a silly question, how do you usually response to errors? Response with one error at a time or Response with multiple errors at a time, in a list record
Example
Invalid Email Address format
Invalid Phone number format
Invalid Password .etc...
Invalid API credentials

View 3 RepliesSince I'm new to coding and I'm trying to understand why here is a little more detail on the question.If you have a text box and you are limiting the input to say 2 charactrs do you really need to validate the input further? What I have is a text box that has a max length of 2. Is there a security reason to add a validator to the textbox. I should add this is in Asp.net.

I've tried to override error message when input incorrect data type in input field on HTML form.For example I have the model like this.

public int Age {get;set;}
}
For view, I put text input for Age to get it value.When type some string in Age text box like 'test' and press submit button.
I got this error message ,The value 'xxx' is not valid for AgeHowever, I want to change this message and try many way. There 's nothing effect this message value.
I would like to program an Input Box that comes up when a user clicks 'Find' button. It asks 'Please enter an employee number'. Then it takes the employee number typed into a text box and searches a dataset for that specific employee record.
I know that it should be server side because the client may not have the proper javascript installed or diabled. Therefore, can someone give me some code to put in code behind that can pop up an input box and use the input after, if this can be done?
I'm trying to update a db record via a business object, based on a users input.

I have a field that I display via:
String.Format({0:c},amount)
This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception:
amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency)
I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?
I have one one web page which one one textbox for receiving the dollar value. My requirement is the user should insert the digit following by a $ sysmbol. And the second requirement is the user has the permission to insert only like this $123.45. Before the decimal point it should not exceed three digits and after the decimal point it should not exceed two digits.

I've been given this requirement to set the selected currency to native for the app I'm working on. Short of a switch statement I am not sure how to do this. ois there more of an elegant way of getting the native currency?Also this might be another issue I have currences stored as strings "USD", "GBP" etc.
View 3 RepliesIt seems that sometimes the currency format does not work:
string Amount = "11123.45";
Literal2.Text = string.Format("{0:c}", Amount);
reads 11123.45
it should be:
$11,123.45

View 1 RepliesI am using CultureInfo methods to successfully format all different currencies into their correct format.
But on some exceptions, such as EUR and SEK currencies I need to be able to add them after the value. At the moment my CultureInfo is formatting them in the following way: "SEK 1.00,00" when it needs to be "1.00,00 SEK".
