download files from http server...

Hi All,

To download the files from the http or https server, we have used WebClient
object.

But, the problem is we cannot specify timeout in the WebClient object.

So, using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse the only way to do it ? or is
there some other way with which we can specify timeout for WebClient object.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, I am posting this rather lengthy description here in hope of getting at least some insight into a problem that is really hurting my business, since I have come to the conclusion that my problem is at least partly PHP-related. Some time now I have been having transfer problems, i.e. my customers downloads of large binary (ZIP) files are often corrupt.

Hey Guys I have a web application that allows users to download files. But the files are not hosted on the webserver. The files are stored on external servers and are referenced by a URL/URI. Since my application restricts the number of downloads for the file per user, i cannot show the user the URL/URI of the server hosting the file. Therefore i need to some how route the file via my webserver, and then use the Response to stream the...

Hello, I am trying to download a few files one after another from a remote server. Problem is that I don't know how to, or if I am able at all, set a time out for download. I don't want to time out whole script, just a part if file won't download in 2mins then skip to the next one. Previously, I had a Javascript implementation with AJAX, this time I thought of doing it in PHP since PHP has far better array functions, I don't have to do...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
