C# - Is Normal To Push Data Into The Stream Before Click "Save"
Apr 2, 2010
I'm making tests with ASP.NET HttpHandler for download a file writting directly on the response stream, and I'm not pretty sure about the way I'm doing it. This is a example method, in the future the file could be stored in a BLOB in the database:
public void GetFile(HttpResponse response)
{
String fileName = "example.iso";
response.ClearHeaders();
response.ClearContent();
response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(Path.Combine(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/App_Data"), fileName), FileMode.Open))
{
Byte[] buffer = new Byte[4096];
Int32 readed = 0;
while ((readed = fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
response.OutputStream.Write(buffer, 0, readed);
response.Flush();
}
}
}
When I open the url with the browser, appears the "Save File" dialog... but it seems like the server has started already to push data into the stream before I click "Save", is that normal? If I remove the line"response.Flush()", when I open the url with the browser, ... I see how the web server is pushing data but the "Save File" dialog doesn't come up, (or at least not in a reasonable time fashion) why?
When I open the url with a WebRequest object, I see that the HttpResponse.ContentLength is "-1", although I can read the stream and get the file. What is the meaning of -1? When is HttpResponse.ContentLength going to show the length of the response? For example, I have a method that retrieves a big xml compresed with deflate as a binary stream, but in that case... when I access it with a WebRequest, in the HttpResponse I can actually see the ContentLength with the length of the stream, why? What is the optimal length for the Byte[] array that I use as buffer for optimal performance in a web server? I've read that is between 4K and 8K... but which factors should I consider to make the correct decision. Does this method bloat the IIS or client memory usage? or is it actually buffering the transference correctly?

Im trying to resize an image. I have the original file and then try to resize it and save it to a new image.However, I get an exception because the value of stream cannot be null. This makes sense, but I dont know how to prevent it:

My page (which basically contains a pair of Repeaters) renders and is displayed to the user.I'd like to have a "Download" button on the page which, when clicked, will propmt the user to save the page locally as an html file without losing any of the CSS formatting.
My CSS files are linked to via a Master Page.Currently, I have the button linked to some javascript that open will the Save As dialog, but all of the CSS formatting is lost, and it saves the page .I'm assuming that the button will need to open a new page which will re-create the data for the Repeaters and then save using StreamWriter, but I'm not exactly sure if that's right or how best to do it.

I have one parent gridview where each record will link to its details page (another child gridview in modal popup). May I know how do I store the values of the child gridview temporary (maybe in session) and repopulate the data into the parent gridview? Current problem is: once I click save in the child modalpop gridview, it binds the parent gridview before the child gridview data is stored in session. I want to store the data temporary until user click save in the parent gridview.

i have a listview which contains a text box and a drop down control (which makes it kind of a layout ...a text box along side a drop down control in each row). there can be any number of rows in the listview depending upon a user entry (an integer).
after i have filled all the text boxes and changed the drop down controls to their associated values (for each text box), i want to save everything that i have filled. i have a SAVE button OUTSIDE the listview, and i want to (probably) iterate through all the rows of the listview and save all the contents in the textboxes to a collection object, where each collection item will be a row with textbox's text and dropdown's selected index value.

I'm transforming lotus note application to ASP.NET.In lotus note, we can pass the application(data) from staff to his/her manager for approval.The staff can also check status of his/her data whether the manager is opening it, approved it or not.This process can be done in real time. I mean on the staff screen he/she will see status is changing from data sent --> manager is opening --> manager accepted or manager rejected it.In the same time, if other staffs try to track this application(data) they will see the same screen with the first staff.ow, in asp.net, i'm thinking of sending data from staff to manager directly. I don't want manager's web browser need to do polling for every xx millisecond. I'm not quite too sure it can be done or not in asp.net because i'm not the WEB guy.After doing a research for a while, i found that comet may help me on that but it seems pretty hard. And I don't know it is suitable for my problem or not or someone may guide me a better idea on this.

I have written a script to create txt documents on my server and i have a listbox on my aspx page that lists these txt documents 1 by 1. What i want to do is click a button to let the user save the selected file to there own computer... sounds simple but im having a mare.
Heres my code:
Code:
Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
'Server.Transfer(MapPath("/") & ListBox1.SelectedValue)
DownloadFile(ListBox1.SelectedValue, True)
End Sub
Private Sub DownloadFile(ByVal fname As String, ByVal forceDownload As Boolean)
Dim path__1 As String = MapPath(fname)
Dim name As String = Path.GetFileName(path__1)
Dim ext As String = Path.GetExtension(path__1)
Dim type As String = ""
' set known types based on file extension
If ext IsNot Nothing Then
Select Case ext.ToLower()
Case ".htm", ".html"
type = "text/HTML"
Exit Select
Case ".txt"
type = "text/plain"
Exit Select
Case ".doc", ".rtf"
type = "Application/msword"
Exit Select
End Select
End If
If forceDownload Then
Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & name)
End If
If type <> "" Then
Response.ContentType = type
End If
Response.WriteFile(path__1)
Response.[End]()
End Sub
Here's the error message i get:
Code:
Access to the path 'C:xml' is denied. Permissions is the obvious but i cannot go around changing the permissions on all my end users PC... there must be an easier way?

I have anested ListView control. I also implemented a jQuery to automatically expand the TextBox control inside of the nested ListView Insert Template. The problem is, when the Textbox expand, the outer ListView control is not; therefore, the Textbox control expands underneath the buttons of the outer listView control. How do I expand the outer ListView control as the nested ListView textbox is automatically expand? One great example is in Facebook where if I add a response comment, it'll automatically push any comments below mine down. If nested Listview control is not the best way to do this, what are my options?
