Update Browser Detection Files For ASP?
May 26, 2010
I have an ASP.Net site on which we're using control adapters. We have the adapters mapped to a "refID" of "Default." These adapters are working fine on all browsers except Chrome and Safari. For those browsers, they do not execute. I've given up trying to figure out why -- I have a question here on SO that no one has been able to answer, and I've been researching it for days now. It's just inexplicable.
I have tested the same code in my local environment, and it works just fine. Additionally, no one else can replicate my problem on other servers. It seems to be somehow confined to the machines at my client's site. Could they be somehow out-of-date? If this is the case, is there some way to "update" the .browser files? I'm half-tempted to just copy the .browser files out of the Framework directory from my machine over to theirs, but I'm curious is there's something more formal than this? Is there some other source of data that ASP.Net uses for browser detection other than these files?

I am using Request.Browser.IsMobileDevice in conjunction with the MDBF file that goes in the App_Browsers/Devices folder [URL] Now using Sea Monkey browser (latest version 2.0.7) IsMobileDevice returns true. Why might this be the case as clearly Sea Monkey is not a mobile browser. In fact, I had the understanding it used a lot of the same core as FireFox (which does not return true)

I googled this topic and I came across with three different ways to configure browser capabilities: browscap.ini, browserCaps element in web.config and .browser files in App_Browsers. I thought .browser files is the latest way, but I don't seem to find up-to-date files. But I found quite fresh browscap.ini from [URL]
My first priority is to exclude common crawlers from the visitor stats. The second priority is to detect browser and os with correct versions (e.g. Opera 11 / Win7). Are there any libraries I could use? Is browscap.ini still a valid way and is it possible to use it without access to system files? Where can I find up-to-date .browser files?

I need to separate IE and FF browsers from others it's a pseudo-code :
If (CurrentBrowser == IE(6+) or FF(2+) )
{
...
}
else
{
...
}
in protected void Page_Load() event (think so)
if ((Request.Browser.Type == "IE") || (Request.Browser.Type == "FF"))
{
WebMsgBox.Show("1111");
}
no effects :-/ what is IE and FF types?

In my JavaScript I'm trying to redirect to third party page. It can open a page either in a new window or inside a frame depends on a user settings. Something like this:
if (newWindow)
{
window.open(url, targer);
}
else
{
theFrame = url;
}
What I want to do is to display my custom page in case a third party site is down or page is unavailable. Basically in case of 404 error.

How would one go about detecting a page refresh / F5 key push on the controller handling the postback? I need to distinguish between the user pressing one of two buttons (e.g., Next, Previous) and when the F5 / page refresh occurs.My scenario is a single wizard page that has different content shown between each invocation of the user pressing the "Next" or "Previous" buttons. The error that I am running into is when the user refreshes the page / presses the F5 key, the browser re-sends the request back to the controller, which is handled as a post-back and the FormCollection type is used to look for the "submitButton" key and obtain its value (e.g., "Next," "Send"). This part was modeled after the post by Dylan Beattie at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/442704/how-do-you-handle-multiple-submit-buttons-in-asp-net-mvc-framework.Maybe I'm trying to bend MVC 2 to where it isn't meant to go but I'd like to stay with the current design in that the underlying database drives the content and order of what is shown. This allows us to add new content into the database without modifying the code the displays the content.

I've seen many articles about dragging files INTO a browser, but none about dragging files FROM the browser to a windows application or the desktop/windows-explorer.
I'm looking for a cross-browser solution but IE8 is our main browser. If I create a link in a web page and then drag that link from the page into Microsoft Word, it inserts a link. However, if that link is pointing at a PDF document, I would like it to embed the PDF doc inside the Word doc, as if I'd dragged it from Windows Explorer, into MS Word. Is that possible?
I've even tried pointing the link at an ASP page which returns "application/pdf" data but I still just get a link in my word doc so I suspect that links are the wrong way to go.

I'm creating an Excel file in C# on my asp.net web site. Then, I want to save this file somewhere within the web server's files, and send that file to the browser for the user to download. I've got it working on my local system in the dev environment, but I'm not getting the file addressing right. How can I store a file in "~ParentFolderSubFolderfile.ext". Then send that file to the browser for user download.
String outputFile = Utilities.writeToExcelFile("", MapPath(@"~ReportFilesTempFilesDropShipData.xls"), table);
DownloadFile(outputFile);
public void DownloadFile(string fname)
{
string path = fname;
string name = Path.GetFileName(path);
string ext = Path.GetExtension(path);
string type = "";
// set known types based on file extension
if (ext != null)
{
switch (ext.ToLower())
{
case ".htm":
case ".html":
case ".aspx":
case ".asp":
type = "text/HTML";
break;
case ".xls":
case ".xlsx":
case ".csv":
type = "Application/x-msexcel";
break;
case ".pdf":
type = "Application/pdf";
break;
case ".txt":
type = "text/plain";
break;
case ".doc":
case ".docx":
case ".rtf":
type = "Application/msword";
break;
}
}
Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition",
"attachment; filename=" + name);
if (type != "")
Response.ContentType = type;
Response.WriteFile(path);
Response.End();
}
Again, this works fine on my local pc, but when I move it to the server I get an error for accessing the path. And the path listed in the error code is NOT where I want the file to go.

I have a custom config file in my application say my.config. Suddenly I ecnountered with some error regarding one of the settings inside the config file and the strange thing happens- my content of the config file get's rendered in the browser in the form of error. This is a big security issue for me. My question is how to prevent the content of my config files from rendering in the browser. Note I have already this setting in my web config:
<customErrors mode="Off" defaultRedirect="errors/default.aspx"/>
I am wondering why did not it redirect to error page? we had the settings turned onstill it displayed the straight error.

I'm looking for possible ways for sending files from browser to server.
One obvious way is using form with enctype='multipart/form-data'.
I wonder if there are other ways than this.
The reason I ask you this question is this file uploader: http://aspnetajax.componentart.com/control-specific/upload/features/core_features/WebForm1.aspx
It's not flash based, but it sends the file in a way that it gives you a progress bar, but when you send a file with form with enctype='multipart/form-data' the whole file will be send to the server so you can't actually show a progress bar of uploading process.

In my web application I am working with files. Some files are very large. I use Response.Write() to write the file to the browser. This goes well for the smaller files, but for large files this can take a while and the bandwidth is fully used.
Is it possible to split large documents and send it piece by piece to the browser? Are there other ways to send the document quicker to the browser?I hold the document as a property of an object.

I have some questions regarding the entities framework. Once you create your DataModel, if later you modify it such as removing fields adding tables it is possible for the EF to auto detect changes or you have to refresh it manually? If you have to refresh it.. how do you refresh it to reflect new changes? Also do it affect in any way the data in the database?
