Why do you need the path ? Just use SaveAs() method to upload the file on server.

I have to store filename & extensions only into sql DB. Not the full videos.
|
|

You're making zero sense. You are GIVEN the filename, including the extension, from the upload control. So, what is the issue ?

I guess you are looking for this
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo("pathOfFileName");<br />
string filename = fi.Name ;

Well, System.IO.Path.GetFilename will do that.

i working in asp.net and C#.net. i am comparing the values of two labels if they are not equal then start countdown. but it should be for five minutes only. mean when time start then 4:59(mm:ss) then decrease and when time become 0:00 then it will once again become 4:59 and again repeat the whole process if the the label values are not equal.

You can't do this with ASP.NET or with C#. You need to do it in javascript. You should perhaps read a basic ASP.NET book, to understand how the whole process works. ASP.NET generates pages which are then served and run in the browser.

you dont have to upload the video to sql just insert the name of the video in the column and store the video in some folder(like Video)and fetching it...
code for fetching:
'<# "Video\\" + DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"videoname")>'
|
|
|
|

If you must do it this way, you need to write a HTTP handler to serve the videos, and a page to request them, which would take a query string parameter to define what video to send.

If you are using SQL, Then use the BLOB (binary object) in a table, but keep in mind that your db will grow very large.
Also, you cannot play the file directly from DB, you need to save the DB object to disk.

How to view videos in asp.net webpage.

ASP.NET has no video support directly. You need to embed flash or media player movies the same way you would for any HTML page

If you want to store them in a SQL database, you will need to write a HTTP handler to serve them to the pages that request them.

I'm looking for an asp.net forum application. It doesnt have to be free source(I'm willing to pay up to 150$ for it). I have only 2 demands:
- It has to be asp.net based
- It has to include a tree view(Like the codeproject's discussion boards)
|

$150 is close enough to free to make no difference. This is the wrong place to post this. This place is for programmers to ask programming questions.

I have a web page created with ASP.net in visual studio. My progam requires authentication. I used the built in server controls in ASP.net that utilize a SQL Express database. When I publish my web site to a web host, it does not work because web hosts do not support SQL Express.
How do I utilize the built in authentication server controls using SQL? OR
Is there a web host that I can use that will support SQL Express for authentication and SQL 2005 or 2008 for database connections?
Why does Microsoft use SQL express if it is not functional in a web host?

No, YOUR web host does not support SQL Express. Either way, if your DB is plain SQL, you should be able to move it. What do they support ? If they don't support SQL Server OR SQL Express, they are not much of a web host.

This would be stupid. Why do you think you need to do this ? Why not authenticate in SQL Server ?
lofland wrote: Why does Microsoft use SQL express if it is not functional in a web host?
SQL Express is just a database. In fact, it's basically a lite version of SQL Server, it's DESIGNED to be used by developers who go on to migrate their DB to a full SQL Server.

Your comment "that would be stupid" is my point.
why does Microsoft create server controls that use SQL express by default when web hosts don't support sql express.
All of the server authentication controls use the default of SQL express. I would prefer to use SQL Server 2008 but I don't know how to make the change.
I am using SQL Server for the rest of my web site. The authentication is the only part that uses SQL express.

Probably because it can't be hard at all to change what you use, and they expect a lot of developers to use SQL Express on their local machines.

It's got to be a matter of changing a connection string. Of course, there needs to be a DB behind it that has the tables to support it. How did you set it up in the first place ?
