The browser will cache pages, unless you ask it not to. Read up on the cache control headers.

Hi,
I want to upload a file to a folder in production server, using the SaveAs method of the upload server control. My target folder is 'E:\inetpub\vhosts\marinasecuritieslimited.com\httpdocs\stockinfo\test_data.txt

However i got this error "Access to the path 'E:\inetpub\vhosts\marinasecuritieslimited.com\httpdocs\stockinfo\test_data.txt' is denied" after clicking the upload button.

Have granted asp.net user access to write the folder, yet the error is still the same.

Can someone help me please?

Hi,

How can I decode the email body into the correct string value?

I have a problem in retrieving email content using indy.sockets. Some of the email body has this value (please check below characters) ...

Hi,

I use to code with the C# language and accessing web services methods are uber easy with the help of VS Studio. But now im trying to do the same, but using Javascript instead.

The link to the webservice:

http://webservices.iter.dk/calculator.asmx[^]

Now the thing is,

1.how do a connection to the web service so that i will be able to get access the methods so that i be able to use it on my form.

2. if there are other ways to access the methods of the web service mentioned above, what are the steps? any tutorials that i can look at in order to understand how Javascript will be able to achieve that.

Thank you.

Beginers Question: Developing Websites With Discussion Options

Hi people,
I want to develop a news site with articles, where each article has an option of posting comments to it in the bottom, in a discussion/threaded way.
I'd like to do every thing myself without using any ready-made libraries for that matter.
The problem is that I don't know where to start and what tools to select and learn.
I am a SW developer in C++/OpenGL/3D... I also know a fair amount of SQL and a little bit of Python.
What set of tools should I pick?
C#/ASP.NET ??
PHP??
Java??
Python?
Confused | :confused:

Please advise.
Many thanks in advance.

C#/ASP.NET. It's OO and C# looks like C++, it's the most friendly environment for C++ devs to write web apps.

IE7 vs FF3 issue...

so i'm writing some basic drag-drop code and it all works fine in FF3 but in IE it seems that the mouseup event isn't being handled properly ... does anyone know of any "known issues" related to this?

Diacritics (accent characters) getting stripped on form post

8-Jul-08 15:39

The only one i can think of off-hand is that if the element you're dragging has text content IE will start selecting it, which can get weird but isn't really a big deal to work around. Oh, and if you're detaching and re-attaching elements containing form controls, it'll sometimes lose attributes.

Keep in mind: IE's event bubbling model works a bit... differently. If you have event handlers at multiple levels, and depend on events reaching them in a certain order, then this might lead to problems.

I have a classic asp application which allows the use of diacritics (accented characters). The values containing the characters are being passed between a series of pages (wizard pattern) until the user submits the final page.

As I inspect each page in the flow, the diacritics are being passed correctly between all the previous pages. But on the final submit the entire characters are being stripped from the value submitted. So, "Producciòn" becomes "Produccin". I'm just using request.form("....") to retrieve the values.

The page headers are all the same (same includes same html head settings). Why would the characters be dropped?

Re: Diacritics (accent characters) getting stripped on form post

8-Jul-08 8:22

Are they being dropped prior to submission (check the values in the form fields), during submission (check the actual POST with Fiddler or equiv), or during receipt (examine the request server-side; if you're doing ASP.NET, then the raw request is available somewhere in the current HttpContext object i believe, but poke around a bit).

My first guess would be that you have the encoding set incorrectly on the last page, causing the browser to "correct" the characters... but a bit of detective work should take you a lot further than that. Wink | ;)

Ok, a co-worker was able to help me. The issue was most definately an encoding issue as was stated. I believed that was the case, but had been changing the encoding on the referring and target pages w/o any luck. As it turns out I had to change the encoding on every page in the process and that fixed the problem. Here's the page that saved my hide:

http://www.hanselman.com/blog/InternationalizationAndClassicASP.aspx [^]

Before the changes, this is the value that was passed between the pages:

departmentname=Bo%F1ar+-+Producci%F3n

now the value being passed is:

departmentname=Bo%C3%B1ar+-+Producci%C3%B3n

I appreciate the help given, thank you!

Hi Bob,

Thanks for you reply.

Actually I want to perform the following functionality.

When user enter any character in the text box,system should show all the suggestions related to the entered character. For eg if we press “a” the system should show all the words stored in database which starts with a. Just like google lab. When we press “a” in google lab shows all values which start with “a” in drop down.

Hope you understand what I want to perform.

Thanks again.

So its nothing to do with Google Labs, you just want a drop down combo box with autocomplete. You need to bind a combo box to your datasource and (probably) use AJAX to give you your autocomplete functionality.

For further details, google it Smile | :)

This is what I am looking for.

Sorry, I went to http://labs.google.com as you just said google labs.

Anyway, I had a look and in my opinion its really a fairly basic control that should be easy to reproduce. I suspect getting the performance from the database would be the real challenge.
