Javascript - Display Actual File Size Next To A Hyperlink Of A Document Or Download?
Jan 7, 2011
I've always been required show download size next to the file hyperlink. Only the file in question is rebuilt everyday and the file size can change often. So needless to say the size has been wrong for months. I'm not going to update our site daily to display needless info.
instead of
<a href="file.xxx">click here to download (20mb)</a>
I'd prefer
<a href="file.xxx">click here to download [sizeof('file.xxx')]</a>
The best solution would be javascript based or similar.
I have a website that hosts video files. Some are small around 5mb and some are up to 200mb. This site is not live yet, but when I try to do a test download, it doesnt show the total file size, it just shows how much it has downloaded and the speed.
I tried downloading a 5mb file and once it completed it had actually downloaded 15.2mb. The file worked fine but why was it so large when the actual file is not that size at all. The type of files that are donwloaded are FLV's and MOV's.
I have tested this on IE 6, IE 8, Chrome, Safari, and Firefox, all with the same results.
I have an asp.net application running on a web farm that allows users to upload files and download them later via link to that file. Currently, I use Windows DFS to replicate the local IIS directory where the files are stored across the web farm servers. However, as this solution does not scale out, I want to implement a more scalable solution by partitioning the documents. Specifically, say I set up multiple file storage servers (Fs1, Fs2, Fs3, etc.) on the network. Further, let's say I change my upload page to save the uploaded file to one of the file storage servers on the local LAN (based on some logic). I assume so far I am safe with ASP.NET doing this much assuming I have the correct permission for the ASP.NET process ID. The question I have is withregards to download links. When a user gets served a download link to their document (e.g. http://www.testco.com/data/doc1.txt) is there a way for me to "intercept" that HTTP request and underneath the coversserve the doc1.txt from the file storage server (e.g. Fs2) it resides
I calculate the total size of my PDF file which is mentioned below. What does this return? When I download a 2KB file, it returns a size of 2KB, which is correct. But when I download 2 files each of size 2KB, then the total size it returns is 2.16KB. Is that correct? Should it return 4KB?
suppose i have four hyper link in my page if user click on any hyper link then a file will be downloading in client machine. if user click on 4 links one after one then 4 file will be downloading in client machine. so i want that if user click first time on any link then a file will be downloading and if user click on second link when first file is downloading then i want to show a message to user that already one file is downloading from your IP and stop second file download. when first file download will be completed if then user click on second or any other link then another file will download in client pc. when file is downloading in client pc then we have no control over it and ever we not being able to know when download complete. so it is getting hard for me to implement by code.
i think from my question anyone can understand what i want that at a time one user can download one file at a time and will be able to download next file when first file has been downloaded in client pc.in this way i can restric the user to download large files more than one at a time. how to implement this with code in asp.net.
I am using webclient object to download a file to a windows folder from a sharepoint document library. The credentials I am passing to the webclient object are that of site collection administrator. everything works fine while i test it by uploading a file to the document library. But since the document library is email enabled; when an email is received the file is not transferred to the windows folder. i have put some workflow history events to see which user account is used when the email is received. the user account shown is the network service account. I have given write permissions on the folder to all the users; Everyone, Network service, the site collection administrator user etc. but still i cant figure out what is the problem.
I want to embed a silverlight app into a web page and have the height/width of the div that contains the silverlight control match the dimensions of the actual size of the silverlight control.
I essentially want the div to stretch to accommodate the size of the silverlight control. I do not know what size the silverlight control will be before it loads as it is pulling in data and adding controls dynamically. I want to avoid dueling scroll bars and use only the browser scroll bars.
I need this to work in both IE and Firefox.Is there a way to accomplish this?
The ASP.net 3.5 SiteMapPath Control shows the site map but not necessarily the path thru a site. If a user links from one page to another using a hyperlink, the Site Map does not seem to show the actual path, only the site Map. If this is incorrect, please let me know.If it is correct, do you know of another control that will show the actual path thru the site in a session?
I have very similar problem as this: Allowing users to download files - ASP.NET , but in my case I am generating xlsx file with ajax, and on ajax-called aspx page I am using:
[code]....
When this file is generated, control is returned to ajax calling page and from there I wan't to show save file dialog based on this ajax response and allow user to download this generated file. I don't want to save file on disk with ajax called page and then redirect ajax calling page to that file, because of popup blocker in IE. I am using jquery for ajax calls:
Is it possible to take 10 (or more or less) pdf files in a directory and merge them into a single PDF file to display to the user? Obviously I would prefer to not pay for something if I don't have to
I'm working in ASP.NET 4.0 with C# in the code behind.
