On my website I have a dynamic link(aspx) to this file 0AX120S.jpg(pri vacy
protection). When a visitor clicks on the link I want them to see
my_vacation_pic .jpg (fetch realname from database) is this possible with
ASP.NET(C#)?
Thanks

All the uploaded files will be stored in a folder. Do you have an example on
how to set response headers in asp.net? I did a search the results only show
me how to get the request headers.
Also is this method compatible with older browsers? IE4 NS4?
Thanks,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
Clicking a link sends a request to the web server. The response that
comes back has a small set of HTTP headers associated with it.
In these headers, you can specify the filename that you want the browser
to use when opening the file.
Content-Type = application/download
Content-Disposition = attachment; filename=my_vac ation_pic.jpg
This will allow the user to save the file by the name you provide.
You simply have to code the headers.
I'm not clear from your messages if you are storing the files in the
database or just their names. If you are storing just their names, then
you will want your ASPX page to set the HTTP headers first, then read the
file into memory, encode to Base64, and stream it into the Response
object.
The browser will do the rest.

Thanks for the article. I'm experimenting with it right now. Don't know if
it work for my case. Since the files requested are not aspx files,
(zip,jpg,gif,pd f...)
Is global.asax responsible for all reqeusts made to the webapp or just the
asp.net ones?

This works with IE4.01. This will not work with IE5.0, but it will work
with IE5.1 and higher. Stats prove that no one is using IE4 or NS4 anymore.
(If that's your market, then you are already out of business). I haven't
tested with Opera and Firefox, but that shouldn't be difficult to test with.
Word on the street is that those browsers are pretty darn good, so I
wouldn't expect any issues.
You need HTTPResponse.Ap pendHeader http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...eadertopic.asp

Aaron,
The way that I think that I would probably do your problem.
I would create in my database from every picture a thumbnail that I would
present on a imagebutton on my page
I would set reference number in a tag and that with the used paths in a
dataset that I would store in a session.
When the button is clicked I would get the image and translate that to a
bitmap.
That bitmap I would send using the response.redire ct(bitmap)
Than the user would never know the original path.
Just an idea
Cor
You can, but it requires you to add new Application Mappings in IIS, then
you must program a DLL to do the actual job for you, in your case the DLL
would probably look up the file name from the database, and then HTTP
redirect the user to a download page where the user will start to download
the file.

Hi, I’ve written a c# program to compact certain msaccess databases. The way
this works is to compact say C:\test1.mdb to C:\temp.mdb, then delete
C:\test1.mdb and rename C:\temp.mdb as C:\test1.mdb.
My problem occurs if there is already a C:\temp.mdb file. I don’t want to
just delete this, as it could have been created separately by a user.
In my code, I set a constant as follows:
private const string tempMdb = @"C:\temp.mdb";

On Windows, if I do os.rename(old, new) where old is a file that is
in-use (e.g. python itself, or a dll that is loaded), I would expect
that an error would be raised (e.g. as when os.remove is called with
an in-use file). However, what happens is that a copy of the file is
made, and the old file still exists.
For example:

I have a standard template file that is available for download
(currently just an anchor tag). I would like to rename the file that
is sent to the client (to include an ID used by the template) so if the
user saves the file rather than opens it, it will have the necessary
info to work properly when it is opened. Is there a means via
javascript to rename the file being downloaded?
Thanks very much!

Hello,
I want to make a file available to a user for download on an ASP.NET
page.
So I need to have a button that when clicked, the file is download.
However, before the file is downloaded, I want it to be renamed so the
file name that the users gets is different that the one in the server.
The extension will be the same.
Any idea of how to do this?
