Towords() Function Not Displaying Output in Crystal Reports9.0

28-Nov-06 2:12

If you have created a window using the showModalDialog function, there is a result parameter that you can query from the calling form.

e.g.

var returnValue = window.showModalDialog(<<parameters here>>);

if (returnValue != undefined && returnValue != '')
{
  alert(returnValue);
}

In your modal dialog, you may have something like this:

window.returnValue = 'Hello from the modal dialog';

Using Desktop applications in Web Application

Hi All,

I have a scenario to use a desktop application inside a web page. i.e. I should be able to execute an EXE within the web page. For example If I want to open a word document I should be able to open within the page say a frame and can do all the operations as in word within that frame.

Please let me know if its possible

Thanks,
Jaya

Erhm, ppfff.... this is interesting... What exactly do you want to accomplish??

First, if you want a website visitor to open a word document, you can do so bu linking to the word document. MS Word starts on the visitor's computer and opens the word document.

Second, you can choose to start word as a process on your webserver, but you need to have enough permissions to do so. Although it's nice the possibility is there (for merging / parsing documents server side) in this case there's no sence doing that, because the process running on the server is not available for your website visitor. Word will start and then... do nothing Wink | ;-)

I hope that helps you out, is not, tell us what you exactly want because your question is too abstract to give you a satisfiying answer...

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Exactly what I want is ....

I have to give a web page that will allow the user to write code (in any language) and can be able to compile it and run the code.

Simply... I have to integrate an IDE within a web page. That IDE should open within the IE frame

Is this possible. Reply ASAp

Thanks Alot,
Jaya

I think you should change your message type to Joke/Game...
In fact you want to create a not-yet-existing development environment on your website. How will you ever determine which programming language was used (and thus which compiler to use if required)?

If you want to support 'any' programming language, you need to integrate all existing languages in one single environment which looks like a impossible to me. I think it's possible though to let a user for example choose a language (C# for example) and try to compile that, but supporting multiple languages will be a hell of a job.

Good luck!

hi,

I am agreeing with your answer... but it is possible to have a combo box or radio buttons to allow the user to choose the language first and then we can call the type of IDE accordingly. this is not a pblm for me.

Let us assume only .net languages are possible...will u agree that calling the dot net IDE will compile and run the code?

ok. let me know if this is possible... integrate an open source IDE within the web page frame....

hope i cleared u my situation..

thanks,
Jaya

I don't think there's need to call the .NET developement environment, you only need to run the compiler behind the .NET env.

Hi,

Yes I tried compiling C# code. I can be able to compile a console application within the asp.net web page. but if I run the EXE file using Process.Start() the exe is opening but it is not visible for me. while i check with the task manager it is opened by the ASPNET user not the owner of the machine. how can I solve this problem

Thanks,
Jaya

This is pretty complicated to explain. Permissions in IIS can be difficult to understand. First, you must run the website impersonate, which requires you to log on to the website using a windows user account. You can also skip this, but then you must run the website using a diffrent user account which has way too many rights to run a website Unsure | :~

For more detailed information about running a website using diffrent user accounts I recommend reading

Do you really think it's a good idea to let a user type in a program which then runs on the server? I don't think you've fully thought this through.

Hi,

This is not a problem for me. this will be limited to 10 users only. so its better to give me any suggestion to execute an EXE from the web page.

I have done this through Process.Start method. EXE is running but not visible to the user.

Please help me

Thanks,
J

Pete O'Hanlon28-Nov-06 23:05

Why would the EXE be visible to the user. If you are compiling it up, then you are compiling it on the web server, and it will run there as well. So, they will not see it.

Hi,

Try to understand my concept I have to provide a web page where the user can write a program, compile it and then run it.

so while he running his program he should see the answer.

I tried to provide an IDE itself into the web page - I found difficult in this.
I tried to give a rich text box to write a CSharp program there - In this I can able to build the program but while executing the created exe... it is not visible to the user.

Thanks,
J

Hi - it's not the concept that I have a problem with. I get it.

Your architecture is this:

Web Browser with input box.
On some form of submission, the code is compiled up on the server and runs.
It runs as an executable (i.e. out of process) under the ASP.NET network client account on the server.

Of course it's not visible. It's an exe running on the server. What would you expect the user to see?

If I am missing something clever that you have done, please feel free to correct me, and to vote me down, but I fail to see what you think the user will see.

Hi,

You are comming to the appropriate point.

thats the problem for me. I have to put the EXE file (which is compiled in the server) in the client machine and execute the file from there..

is this possible?

RAD DateInput control problem

29-Nov-06 1:52

Good news there. You can.

Here's the big hint. You can send lots of different things back to the web browser by setting the appropriate content type (application/octet-stream in this case I think).
