Question: Is it possible to embed .skin files as a resource?
I am creating a library of user controls(grids, buttons, etc.) that are common among all of our web projects. I have included several common javascript files used by the controls by adding them as an embedded resource and registering them as a resource using RegisterClientScriptResource. Everything works great.
However, the last thing I would like to do is embed skin files in this project so that all the controls have the same look. I know I can control look solely with css, but I would like to control some of the other asp attributes as well(ie AllowSorting and AllowPaging attributes of a grid). Is it possible to embed skin files as a resource? Or will each individial project need a copy of the skin file? If anyone could provide insight on how I can go about embedding a skin file..
I have a question about javascript. In my project, there are embedded and non-embedded javascript codes. And i did localization of the embedded codes like below and it works.
CN.DEFAULT_CONFIG = {
strings : {
year: '<%=GetGlobalResourceObject("Resource", "YEAR") %>'
But, this method does not work for non-embedded javascript codes. How can i do localization for them?
My objective is to include a JavaScript file in my Custom Server Control, because it's a bit tedious writing all the JS in C#. I've done a lot of searching and most resources seem to say that I need to add the file as an embedded resource, and access that. I found a few pages describing how to do this:
[URL]
They all seem to say I need to, after adding the JS file, change the build action to 'embedded resource' through its properties. However, the only properties I can actually see on the file are 'File Name' and 'File Path'. Right clicking the file in the solution explorer doesn't allow me access to properties, and right clicking (as one of those links suggests) anywhere else doesn't expose it either. I tried looking through VS Options but couldn't find anything, although I get the impression that I have something configured wrong that's not allowing me to see as many properties as I should be able to.
is it posible to use a url.action in a resource file?
when i try i get junk instead of a real link?
I'm working on resource files in windows application. After i'm adding the resource file in the project if i built the project it creates a separate folder for each language with language code(Spanish->es-ES, French->fr-FR..) and also it has one dll file for corresponding langage inside the folder. Why it is creating like this? Can't we avoid this?

View 1 RepliesHow can I load an embedded resource as an ITemplate? The LoadTemplate() method only takes a string virtual path, and obviously this will not work for embedded resources.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to localize an asp.net web application. Consider the following asp.net code. I'm running with CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture set to German ("DE-DE").
<%= ReportTitles.EndOfDay %>
<asp:Literal ID="litLabel" runat="server" Text="<%$ Resources:ReportTitles, EndOfDay %>"/>
I expect these two lines to yield the same result, but instead I get this:
Auswertungen für den Tagesabschluss
End of Day
In other words, the first syntax <%= ReportTitles.EndOfDay %>successfully retrieves the value from the ReportTitles.de.resx file we're using, but the second syntax <asp:Literal ID="litLabel" runat="server" Text="<%$ Resources:ReportTitles, EndOfDay %>"/>
gets the value out of the default US English ReportTitles.resx file.
Does precompilation have any effect on XML files? i.e. can I obscure/protect xml files using precompilation? I assume that it has no effect as they aren't code.
If I use XML files as Embedded Resources, they appear in the DLL in a text editor as normal text. If the dll is edited and saved using a text editor, will it still work if it is unsigned?
Firstly, "Modifying" may be the wrong term, I see a few people have posted online just asking whether they can actually modify an embedded resource. What I am wanting to to, is use a resource in my assembly as a kind of template which I would do a find and replace on before registering it on the page - is this possible?
For example; say I have a few lines of jQuery as an embedded resource in my assembly and in this script I am referencing a CSS class name that can be set by the front-end programmer. Since I do not know what the CSS class will be until implementation, is there a way of going through the embedded resource and replacing, say, $myclass$ with ThisClassName.
My Composite control implements IScriptControl interface.
ScriptReferences java script file does the client-side work, there I want to load a html file inside iFrame.
The Html file is an embedded resource:
([assembly: System.Web.UI.WebResource("Control.Resources.list.htm", "text/html")])
I pass the path of the html to the javascript file via descriptor property:
IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> IScriptControl.GetScriptDescriptors()
{
descriptor.AddProperty("iframe", iframe);
return new ScriptDescriptor[] { descriptor };
}
Where iframe is a string that contains the path from the webresource.
Now, in this html file I want to display few images that must be also loaded from resource.
The Question is how to access the resources from this html file?
Do I have to pass every image path as descriptor property?
I have a class library and was to add a resource file to it to support both English and Spanish. Any tips as how I can do this? The language will be dictated by the user visiting the site. Would like to have to only load each resource file once and cache or set in static variable and avoid any overheads.

View 1 RepliesIn our web application we need to keep various company's settings. For eg "DiamondProdRefIDCaption","Shippingpickup","ZipCodeCaption","DefaultCountry","AllowToEditInvoice", etcThese settings are different for various companies and are placed in web.config as key-value pair.Initially, we have tried do simplify this process by adding a company_settings table in the DB so as to allow us to add companies on the fly. However, this method makes it very difficult to add a new setting

I have a class library. In one of the classes, I am adding a script reference on the page like this:
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnPreRender(e);
if (this.Page != null)
{
ScriptManager sm = ScriptManager.GetCurrent(this.Page);
ServiceReference reference = new ServiceReference("~/Admin/Services/ContactsService.asmx");
reference.InlineScript = true;
sm.Services.Add(reference);
}
}
For the ServiceReference file path, is there a way to add an embedded file instead? I want to keep everything self-contained in my class library instead of dropping a file into the website folder.
I have an ASP.NET project and want to include an XML file inside the project to store some relatively static data. To do this I selected "Add File" from the solution context menu and picked my XML file. Having added this to my project, I then wanted to load the XML from within code. I tried the following:
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load("MyData.xml");
I also tried:
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load("~/MyData.xml");
But it seems to be looking in the current directory (i.e. my VS2008 directory) and not the project. Am I going about this wrongly? Is there a way to simply reference a resource that's embedded in the project like this?
I have a .swf file embedded in my asp.net webpage. It is slow to load although the size of the file is 1.60 mb. What might be the reason for the slowness? Is there a way I can speed it up in asp.net?
View 1 RepliesUnder Visual Studio 2010, I'm developing an asp.net application. I added a folder to my project called Flash. Under Flash folder I added a swf file with its external resources to run.
The folder content:
1- ScrollingImages.swf file to lunch the flash
2- ScrollingImages.xml file that the swf file uses to read images from thumbnails folder
3-thumbnails folder which content images used by swf file. I can embed the swf file to html easily using this code:
[Code]....
But when I use the same code to embed it to asp.net page I will have a problem that the flash will run but I cannot see the images so the swf file unable to locate the xml file and the folder of the images location and they all in the same folder.Here is the code I used in the aspx.net content page.
[Code]....
I also tested it in aspx.net page and I'm getting same result no images appear. I know that the problem is related to who to embed the swf external resources (the xml file and the images folder) to the aspx.net page but I searched a lot and I could solve it.
I have a question about security. If I put the ip address and full path for my swf file which is embedded within my asp.net application I can access it. I do want anyone to access that file. The file should only be viewed upon logging in to the asp.net webportal which displays it as an embedded flash animation.
View 1 RepliesI currently have a file "abc.htm" in my Custom Server Control Project and it's Build Action is set to Embedded Resource.Now in the RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter output) method, I need to read that file and render it on the website.I am trying the following but it's to no avail:

View 1 RepliesI'm using labels with resource keys. Right now i made a control, with also a lot of resource key's in it, i thought the page where i put the control in would read the resources, but it wont. So 2 solutions needed.
The nicest thing would be if i could 'bind' the resourcefile to the ascx file. But how?
Otherwise i need to get the values to the ascx file, but how can i do that?
How can i get the value of the resource file, of course het sould auto select the correct language resx file. With this it works:
<asp:Label ID="lblHeaderClickCategory" runat="server" Text="lblHeaderClickCategory"
meta:resourcekey="lblHeaderClickCategory" Visible="false" />
But its quite stupit to need a label to get the value, it shoudl be possible by code.
