Whats the best method to prompt a user to download something? In the past I've used window.open('file.pdf'); but I can see popup blockers having a problem with this. Of course I'll include a manual link aswel.I basically want something like the Microsoft Download page. So whats the script that prompts this?
View 3 Repliesimplemented a generic handler in my application which works great for images, but when I manually type the handler URL in the browser with the image's querystring it prompts download instead of displaying. Here is my code:
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
if (this.FileName != null)
{

I've a boolean variable bDifferentUnchk, if it's value is true..i've a display a confirm box .
If that confirmbox's return value is true(say, the user says 'yes'),then i've to show a modal dialog box and if the user clicks "No" in the confirmbox,i've to do a set of tasks.
If bDifferentUnchk Then
confirmMsg = "The Attendance differ from appointments. Do you want to change the appointments as well?"
javaScript.Append("var userConfirm = window.confirm('" + confirmMsg + "');")
javaScript.Append("if ( userConfirm == true )")
javaScript.Append("{")
javaScript.Append("var opt = 'dialogWidth:1028px; dialogHeight:1000px; center:yes; scroll:no; status:no';")
javaScript.Append("var dialogReturnForConfirm = window.showModalDialog('../Patient/PatientAppointment.aspx?AttendancePATID=" + hdnPatID.Value + ",'window',opt);")
javaScript.Append("if ( dialogReturnForConfirm == true )")
javaScript.Append("{")
javaScript.Append("__doPostBack('UserConfirmation', userConfirm);")
javaScript.Append("}")
javaScript.Append("}")
Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), scriptKey, javaScript.ToString(), True)
End If
I have a website up on a server & while I'm still debugging, I have the website's images stored on a separate server. Unfortunately though, it appears I don't have the propper permissions set on my image server because everytime I try to view my website, I'm being prompted with a windows login popup (you can see an image of the popup here [URL] permissions I need to set to remove this password?
View 3 Repliesi am working in a web form (VB.NET ) in which for certain transaction i need the user OK to continue or not.
all what i found is about adding onClick event handler for buttons, but in my case there is no button to click , it's a process in which i retrieved data from database and if that data met specific conditions then a message of OK Cancel should appear to the user prompting him if he would like to continue in that transaction .
I am trying to secure an application in IIS7 using .NET Authorization Rules.
By default, the web server allows all users access (which is inherited).
I have added, just for this one application directory, a deny all users command, as well as an allow command for specific users.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="myusername" />
<deny users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
I have Windows Authentication enabled, and I can verify that without the line that my REMOTE_USER is MYDOMAINmyusername.
However, when I try to deny all users, I am prompted with the typical Windows domain username/password box. If I enter the username password, the prompt comes back up again 3 times until finally presenting me with a failure message. (I have also tried to no avail)
Looking in the event viewer, it appears as if my login using the username and pw is successful in the audit ... and to further that point, my account is not being locked out (which it would if I were failing to login over and over). So it's as if I am logging in, but the configuration is not seeing what I entered as matching my login.
Below is the message I see (even when connecting from the server using localhost):
**Access is denied.
Description: An error occurred while accessing the resources required to serve this request. The server may not be configured for access to the requested URL.
Error message 401.2.: Unauthorized: Logon failed due to server configuration. Verify that you have permission to view this directory or page based on the credentials you supplied and the authentication methods enabled on the Web server. Contact the Web server's administrator for additional assistance.**

I have a VS 2008 asp.net c# application and a Login web page with a
Login Control from:-
System.Web.UI.WebControls.Login
Ive notice that some browsers (may be all) prompt to save the user login information when they first try the Login.
How can I stop this?
Ive read many solutions, one being setting the Username & Password TextBox controls to blanks.
I have the following code
Response.TransmitFile(filePath);
Opens the new window using the following line of code
this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "Download", string.Format("window.open('{0}', target = 'new');", downloadURL), true);
This works on IE8 however doesn't work on IE6 and IE7
We are using asp.net and c#3.5 implementing a website using quite a lot of jQuery. We would like to download an img from the browser window, but (and here's the trick) in a button click (in addition to right click save as)...
Before we get into it, I should state that we know that this is an img tag and from the front end, we can easily download the image using right click save as. The only reason we wish to download the image from a (say) button click is because across the site we have download buttons for downloadable content (like datatable to excel files and pdfs, etc) and we would preferably like to keep the standard across thewebsite.
We are producing graphs using Microsoft Chart Control which renders the graphs to the screen pretty well. This renders an image to the screen as shown below in an example (using Firebug)
<div align="center" style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 30px;" id="graph">
<img style="border-width: 0px; height: 500px; width: 465px;" alt="Chart Loading" src="/Telma.UI/ChartImg.axd?i=chart_194e3c04c11240a7b7fba3e3e1d76d39_2.jpeg&g=338b984aaab84b1da9a63db3150211e2" borderdashstyle="Solid" id="ctl00_Chart1">
</div>
The img tag is generated from the Chart Control which in the asp is in an <asp:Chart> tag.
Now as an important side note we have in the web.config
<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=session;privateImages=true;timeout=10;deleteAfterServicing=false;WebDevServerUseConfigSettings=true;" />
There is a known bug with MS Chart Control that if you store the image in session variables or memory, that the image is only accessible once and not persisted. Described here
We don't have a physical location for the image when it is created (and most often the Chart Control destorys the image).
What we need is some client side method of downloading this image content from the screen as it is rendered, but without having access to the physical image at the back end. We do not want to use the chart control property:
ImageStorageMode="UseImageLocation"
We have a requirement in our project where we have to show the progress of pdf download..(Ex: 1kb/8kb)..this has to be in javascript only(only on client side).

We have a link in our site that pin points to sharepoint documents and we are retreiving some documents files (*.doc). Our sharepoint uses IWA (integrated windows authentication) which is prompted if we're trying to access that documents, unfortunately we don't want to prompt that window to authenticate the user. We need is to create a username and password and authenticate it. how can we do that.
Note* we have 2 server one for our application and the other one is for sharepoint.
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.
