i took a piece of code that i had from a web app that basically showed a video. on this site, i was running .net 1.1. Now that i have finally upgraded to .net 2.0, i thought, well maybe the code can be the same. i was wrong. i placed this code:

var fe = new FlashObject("/Video/reinventing.swf", "reinventing", "320","240","7","#ffffff");
fe.write("flashStage1");

For some reason, all of my stylesheet is gone and images that i have on the page is gone. the video does not show up. Is this a .NET 2.0 reason. i have been researching this issue and have not found anything.

PLEASE HELP!!!

This code is going to go straight to the browser, the version of .NET won't matter at all. This is not ASP.NET code, it's just HTML and script.

Restrict Content by Roles

Hello-
A bit new to this ASP.NET thing, so go easy on me if this is a stupid question. Tried searching on the topic, but didn't have any luck....

I've got a site where I've enabled the membership and role providers - everything works fine. My question is this - is there an ideal way to restrict content based on role membership? I've tried using the LoginView control, except some of my users may belong to multiple roles and this control only picks up on the first matching role. Should I be approaching this differently?

If I understand your question correctly, you can add this to your web.config:

<location path="File_Name.aspx">
  <system.web>
    <authorization>
      <allow roles="Role1,Role2,Rolen"/>
      <deny users="*" />
    </authorization>
  </system.web>
</location>

Sorry, should have been more descriptive. I'm trying to show/hide content on an actual page itself.

My example:
I have 3 roles - Admin, Stakeholder, ProjectManager. I have a nav pane that shows available options for each role. I'd like to hide options not available to users that aren't a part of that specific role. I don't want ProjectManager role members to see the options available to Stakeholder role members, and vice versa.

Is there an accepted method for doing this? Ideally I could redirect upon login , to seperate pages (Admin to an admin.aspx page, Stakeholder to stakeholder.aspx page, etc.), but I don't think one can do that....

you can use the RoleProvider.IsUserInRole Method [^].This function returns a boolean indicating if the user is in a specifed role or not and the you show your options based on the boolean for example

If IsUserInRole("User","Admin") Then
    'Show Admin Options
ElseIf IsUserInRole("User","Stakeholder") Then
    'Show Stakeholder Options
Else
    '....
End If

Connection Strings for Class Library Project

I have a solution that has 3 projects. One of them is serving as Class Library project (technically its a ASP.NET Web Application Project but it only contain classes).

Where would be the best place to store all the connection strings?

1- GCL.config file?
I could use ConfigurationManager class to access the connection strings

or

2- Global.resource file?
I could reference it directly GlobalResources.MyConnectionString.ToString();

Just trying to find out the best practice Smile | :)

Thanks.

Regards,

Robert

I think the best and common practice is to store the connection string in the config file.

You can also use Aspnet_setreg to store and encrypt credintails in the registery [^]

Same answer as before, go read www.asp.net.

No, they "r" not both different. It's only one of them that is different. Wink | ;)

Actually, you didn't. Smile | :)

People have already written millions of words about the differences. There is not any reason to repeat any of it again, just because you (tried to) ask for it. You can find a lot about it if you search, here, in your favourite search engine, or why not get it from the horses mouth; go and see what Microsoft has to say about it.

Well, if you're scared to use them, you should probably find another job/hobby.

Did you even try to google for it?

If so, then what specific questions do you have?

I am building a website that contains some nodes in the sitemap that I don't wish to display in the treeview for the navigation, however I do want to let them show up in the breadcrumb or at least the parent of the node. Is this possible to achieve in asp.net 2.0 ?
