Load Up A Asp.net Page Object And Render Its Contents To String From A Console Application?
Feb 9, 2011
I am trying to use aspx pages as an email templates. There will likely be a bunch of objects on the page which will be used as replacements in the html. Because it's an aspx page I'll be able to use databinding, repeaters, etc. At run time, I want to be able to instantiate the aspx page from its path, pass in a bunch of properties, and then get the rendered result of the page and email it. This seems pretty straightforward from a asp.net website (maybe using BuildManager or Server.Execute.) However, I want to be able to use the same templates via a console application by just loading up a page object from its filepath. Is this possible?

I'm developing my first Facebook application in ASP.NET 2.0 and doing a simplest thing, that is, to show a navigation on top with four hyperlinks where each link targets to another .aspx page. How can I do this using FBML in ASP.NET 2.0?
Otherwise coming to my question, where I'm struck after trying above thing at myself and failed then had to go around the Ajax way of doing this. Now I'm using Ajax call over the onclick event of each hyperlink from top navigation and it's succesfully loading external .aspx pages (for example,[URL]. The problem is when user comes on the application on first time, it only shows the .aspx page which has a navigation and a Ajax content place holder which is programmed to be filled with contents on click event.
How to load Ajax contents into the Ajax content place holder on page load without a click event?

I need to load an XML document into my Dictionary<string,string> object.XML looks like:
<nodes>
<node id="123">
<text>text goes here</text>
</node>
</nodes>
How can I do this using XmlDocument?I want readability over performance, and I find XmlReader to be hard to read b/c you have to keep checking the node type.

I am build an asp.net website that has an Access database. We are using a DataList with a couple fields inside the ItemTemplate. The one that is giving me trouble is the Hyperlink. The code is below. When the page loads the hyperlink renders like this:
<a
id="ContentPlaceHolder1_DataList1_lnk_6"
href="#http://www.washingtonfaire.com/#"
target="_blank">Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire</a>
But when I click on the link, it tries to navigate [URL] What are we doing wrong?

Is there a way that I can create a page and master page and have some of the values dynamicly loaded thru selecting items in the querystring parameters.....
then is there a way that I can render that page only to a text string? by calling it with some querystring parameters and have it render to a string?
I guess my question is only the second part as I already know how to create a page with masterpage etc...
I also know how to create an email and snd it. I just dont know how to render the page to a string
I guess what I mean is that I want to render the page on the server in code behind and then have a text string which would be the rendered HTML in a string variable of some sort... I dont want to render the page to a users browser... in fact there would be no user at all connected (there is no need to be)What I want to do is (in a code module) load up a page created and stored in my wed app directory. I want to be able to load it from a code module and to bhe able to load it with some parametsrs and just get the rendered HTML.
I am trying to write a module which will send a HTML email to registered users and I want that HTML to be dynamicly created depending on some values in the recipient user,s profile.

I've got a page that I'm using as an e-mail template. I'd like to spin off a new thread, take the rendered page, and put it into an e-mail. Is this possible? If so, how? I haven't had luck so far.

I have a custom web part that I am trying to call the RenderContents method on, but the results only contains the surrounding div for the web part, and not any child controls.
Take for example this simple web part:
namespace MyWebParts
{
public class MyTestWebPart : WebPart
{
public MyTestWebPart()
{
this.CssClass = "myTestWebPart";
}
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
base.CreateChildControls();
this.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("Nothing here yet."));
}
}
}
Then, in an http handler, I'm trying to instantiate this web part and call its RenderControl method. The result is <div class="myTestWebPart"></div>.
Does anyone know why I am not getting my controls from CreateChildControls also added to the output?

I have some code that is used to replace certain page output with other text. The way I accomplish this is by setting the Response.Filter to a Stream, Flushing the Response, and then reading that Stream back into a string. From there I can manipulate the string and output the resulting code. You can see the basic code for this over at [URL] However, I noticed that Page Caching no longer works after the first Response.Flush call.
I put together a simple ASP.NET WebApp as an example. I have a Default.aspx with an @OutputCache set for 30 seconds. All this does is output DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(). I override Render. If I do a Response.Flush (even after the base.Render) the page does not get cached. This is regardless of any programmatic cacheability that I set. So it seems that Response.Flush completely undermines any page caching in use. Why is this?
extra credit: is there a way to accomplish what I want (render output to a string) that will not result in Page Cache getting bypassed?
ASPX Page:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="TestCacheVsFlush._Default" %>
<%@ OutputCache Duration="30" VaryByParam="none" %>
<%= DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString() %>
Code-behind (Page is Cached):
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
base.Render(writer);
}
Code-behind (Page is not cached):
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
base.Render(writer);
Response.Flush();
}
Code-behind (Page still is not cached):
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
base.Render(writer);
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.Server);
Response.Cache.SetExpires(DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(30));
Response.Flush();
}

I have an application which has a website and a project. The project contains an executable file which I'm trying to run as a process from the website's Global.asax file's application_start(). When I run this application from localhost, everything runs smoothly but when I deploy the application on IIS, application_start's code is executed and I can see the process name in the taskmanager but I cannot see the window which the console application normally starts in (when i run the application on localhost) and neither is the code executed.
Here's what I'm doing:
-- copied website and project in wwwroot
-- made a virtual directory of the website
-- when i run the website, I see the process in taskmanager but the code is not executed.
I am new to deployment and IIS, and would really appreciate I someone could tell me what i'm missing

my ASP.NET application reads an xml file to determine which environment it's currently in (e.g. local, development, production).
It checks this file every single time it opens a connection to the database, in order to know which connection string to grab from the Application Settings.
I'm entering a phase of development where efficiency is becoming a concern. I don't think it's a good idea to have to read a file on a physical disk ever single time I wish to access the database (very often).
I was considering storing the connection string in Application["ConnectionString"].
[code].....
I didn't design the application so I figure there must have been a reason for reading the xml file every time (to change settings while the application runs?) I have very little concept of the inner workings here. What are the pros and cons?

Here's the situation, I've got a console application that needs to run once a day and make a few requests to pages that require authentication to view. The pages are hosted in a really basic ASP.Net Web Application.
So, I know that in order for the requests to go through successfully I have to authenticate with the server. So I've hooked up the console application to the ASP.Net Membership Provider I'm using for the web app and it successfully determines if a set of a credentials are valid. However, after calling Membership.ValidateUser() any requests I make just get the login screen. After doing some reading it seems that this is because I'm missing the important cookie information that persists my login or what-have-you.
I'm using a basic WebClient to make the requests and then reading/discarding the result.
So the meat of the question is this: Is there a simple way to validate the login information and hold on to it so that I can make the requests successfully, or is this the exact same case as the other two questions I found that require the WebClient to make a "manual" login request to the login.aspx page and try to hold on to the cookie from there?
The questions I'm referencing are:

I have come across some ASP.NET sites that rather than displaying a page, it launches a console-based application similar to how LiveMeeting kicks-off. I am interested in building an app that uses that feature so that I could take advantage of richer features of a console-based app, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find any info on the internet as to what type of project this would be in VS. I have tried WPF Browse Application, but thats not what I am looking for since the app type I am talking about does not run in the browser at all. The image below shows what happens when reaching the web site, which would therefore then launch the console-application (which is not even installed on the client's machine)

I need to get data from a database and I need to spit out this data in html formatk using my command line app. For this I am planning to use some sort of template-engine. I was wondering if there is anything in .NET that can do this for me?
The best option would be if I could reuse the asp.net mvc template engine (razor) in my app, this way I should not need to reinvent the wheel.

I've got two projects: a .Net 4.0 Console Application and an Asp.Net 4.0 Website (they are in the same solution). Now I'd like to include the console application (its .exe) in the web application, because I need to run it on the server when the user clicks on a certain button.
Now I would like to include it in a way that the console application will be updated whenever I recompile the solution, so it stays up to date.
So... how can I include my .exe in my web app?

I have some pre-defined reports to be created in my project for which i am using sql reporting services. Reports are created and can be accessed using the URL http://localhost/reports. am asked to autogenerate the reports(some 5-6 reports) and store the reports on the d-drive folder so that the users can directly access the same instead of using the above URL. For that i created the Console application and added web reference http://localhost/reportserver/reportservice.asmx?wsdl
to it.
