Is there a way where an end user can download multiple files with one click?
I have a database table that can return between 1 and 12 different filenames (JPGs). I'd like to have a single button on the page that will initiate the download of all of them simultaneously. Is this possible?
i am able to do file download using the response object, where a dialog box will appear,
asking user whether they want to open,save or cancel.
it is possible to download multiple files at once. since it is stated that 1 file download per http request. i am lookinn at
http://www.motobit.com/tips/detpg_m...es-one-request/
where it show multiple file per http request. i don't quite understand it though.
Is it possible to download multiple files from a site into a single document, which can also be downloaded as a single file? E.g. files
1. a.doc
2. b.pdf
3. c.pdf
output like document.zip etc?
I want to make a support-page where people can download the latest help-files (these will be in a database) but I don't know how to do this (I only know the basics of ASP).
I don't mean that, for example a pdf, should open in another window. When you click on the filename it should give the standard downoad-box 'Open', 'Save', 'Cancel'.
Does anyone know how to do this? Or maybe there is some code on the net that explains it.
I have to do something like this that a user see list of record if he would find record and want to download that list then a button should be available on page so that he could download that list in a pdf file of that record.

I'm trying to force a file download using ASP but not getting very far... I want the browser to send .pdf files to the user rather than trying to open them within IE (or wotever browser). Does anyone know what code I should use for this?
View Replies View RelatedI am creating a series of downloadable articles, career
tools, spreadsheets, etc. However, some of the content is
for "registered" guest. The registrants are stored in a
database and logon.
I want to ensure that someone registered cannot simply
pass someone the path to the files for download. However,
I am not creating an actual system user name for the
folders where the various documents exist.
I don't want someone to logon, retrieve the path to a
file, and be able to send that path or return to that path
without having to logon.
How do I accomplish this?
Consider the following:
serverroot/registeredcontentfolders would be protected by
a single logon name - not accessible via anonymous
access. User's logon to site and I auth them with their
user name but on the server side, auth with the single
account I am establishing for access to the protected
folders.
I have excel, word, zip, jpeg etc. files in my database.
I can view them by asp from web page but I have problems:
When I Request a file from database:
1. I click on the file it brings me the message if I want to open or download the file.
Content-type works but file name cannot be recognized.
It gives always the same name for the file.
Example: I click cv.doc file, in popup message "download or open" File Name part is always file.asp
It should show cv.doc at file name section. What is the code for it ? Below what I use but missing I guess.
This is how I request the file..
<%
rs.Open "Select * From Files Where Id=" Request.QueryString("Id" ) , connStr, 1, 3
Request.ContentType = rs("FileType" )
Request.BinaryWrite rs("FileBinary" )
%>

View Replies View RelatedI am unable to download zip files from IE browser. Everytime I click on the download button, instead of prompting me to save the file, Internet Explorer opens the zip folder instead.
I think this is because I have previously instructed IE to open zip files without prompting (there was a check box to do this). Is there any way I can revert to the original settings?
I have tried resetting my Web settings, as well as setting the Security level in the Internet Options, but to no avail. I am totally unable to download zip files using IE now.
How to set the default value so that IE prompts me to download the files than opening it in some location.
The below code forces a prompt to the user to open or save the .pdf file file to their local machine. It seems to work great except I have one user who can not open any .pdfs using this prompting method. He gets an error that says "File could not be found". However, if we choose the 'save' option instead, we can save the file to his local machine. He can open .pdf files from normal links to .pdf files. It's just this prompting method that is causing a problem. So, I'm perplexed.
I did some digging and found that there is also an FSO (File System Object) method (which may or may not solve my problem), but I'm not sure how to impliment the FSO or if that will even help me with this.
The following ASP routine allows me to force a PDF file to download rather
than show up in IE:
Response.ContentType = "application/asp-unknown" ' arbitrary
Response.AddHeader "content-disposition","attachment; filename=" & theFile
Set adoStream = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
adoStream.Open()
adoStream.Type = 1
adoStream.LoadFromFile(thePath)
Response.BinaryWrite adoStream.Read()
adoStream.Close
Set adoStream = Nothing
Response.End
This works fine for 250KB - 500KB PDF files, but I've just uploaded a 6MB file and it simply doesn't seem to do anything. The code does nothing which in turn means that the standard Save dialogue box can't find the file.
How can I make files which ie can open them, download without openning. I mean by means of which code Some files JPG MP3 etc can be downloaded.
View Replies View RelatedI want to know if there is a way to check that a file for download is downloaded completely or not. (for example i want to give permission to each user download a file just for once. but if there connection get disconnected they allow to download as much as they want until they download it completely). is there any way to understand that?

I'm having trouble with my first IIS6.0 on Windows Server 2003.
The web site works fine: all ASP pages are processed and displayed normally. The problem is we are not able to download any files from the site (pdf, zip, doc, ...) When you click on a link pointing to one of these files (or if you write the file's absolute URL in the address bar of IE) you get the normal Open or Save as dialog. Whichever option you choose, the next window is an error message stating that the file cannot be downloaded. The strange part is that everything else is working fine, it is file download what fails, exclusively.
Is this something that needs to be enabled in IIS6.0? Do you know anything about this issue?
is it possible to download binary files from database(sql).. ?
View Replies View RelatedWe have a WEB-based application (developed in Visual Studio 2005) running on
handheld devices in Internet Explorer on Windows Mobile 2003. The application
needs to print tickets on a Bluetooth printer, which is accomplished by
preparing a RTF-file on the server and then downloading this file to the
handheld device. We use a third-party application (PrintPocketCE from
FieldSoftware) for the actual printing of the downloaded file. However, when
the file is about to be downloaded we first get a question saying "Download
<filename> to the My Documents folder in Main Memory?" with Yes, Change and
Cancel buttons.
Is there a way to avoid this question and download the file
directly? We need the checkbox "Open file after download" to be checked (as
it is by default when the question is displayed) to get the file processed by
PrintPocketCE after download.
To avoid adding file by file to the handheld device we always use the same
filename for the downloaded file. This leads to another question on each
download, asking whether to overwrite the previously downloaded file. Since
the file has no interest after being printed this question is always answered
with Yes. Is there a way to avoid this question too, for example by setting
some Registry value?
I have a page with only one <input type=file ..> tag.
The page submits to itself with a "Save File to List" button. User browses thru the files and click the above button to add the file to a list. In the end user clicks "Submit" to upload all the files from the list to the server.
Problem # 1
I'm not sure how to save FILE type object collection/array, with every click of first button.
Problem # 2
How do I post that collection/array varaible when submit (2nd button) is clicked.
I have had a post previously that was regarding an image editing component for ASP, I had settled on csImageFile, which performed all the tasks I needed, and so I started looking for an upload component... Well ChestySoft also had a component called csASPUpload, which worked great, so I opted to get that too... Then I also noticed that ChestySoft also had a product that was an OCX control that allowed you to do a multiple post upload... which would be perfect for my uses.
My question is, does anyone know of a free alternative to csXPostUpload, or should I fork out the $80 for a license? www.chestysoft.com
I want my asp page to upload all files from a certain directory on the client pc onto the server.
Code:
set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set F1 = FSO.OpenTextFile(???) -> I only have the directory here
I try to do a multiple delete of files through FileSystemObject, but after deleting the first file, ASP gives me a "Permission denied" error. Below you see my code:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
For Each Item in Request.Form("filename")
delFile = path2 & "files" & Item
fso.DeleteFile delFile
Next
I have provided 5 file controls on the form, the user should be able to upload 1 - 5 files at a time.
View Replies View RelatedWe know that we can use <input type=file ...> to upload one file per time to the server. My question is if there are some way to upload multiple files per time to the server. (Of course, we can use <input type=file ...> multiple times and then submit once.
But this is not what I want, because we have to click "browse" button several
times to select multiple files before submit in this way.) "Upload multiple files PER TIME", I mean it. We can select multiple files in ONE time, submit in ONE time, and thus upload in ONE time. Are there any way to do that?
what i am doing in swf ------i have one Base swf file this Base swf

We have a master page set up and it is tied to its css file through the standard method in the <head> tag. What I would like to do though is from another page inheriting the master page to add another link to a css file.
That way i can have the sites global file used to make the general apperance consistent, then make the internal content more flexible without destroying the current css file.
Is this a possible task? When i went into the main master page and tried to add a <asp:contentplaceholder id="additionCSS" runat="server" /> tag to the head. When this is done visual studio alerts me saying it doesn't recognize the tag 'asp'. Is there a way around this? We are only just rewriting the site to use master pages now so I'm still figuring it out.
Just as the title says I am trying to do something impossible with a single SQL statement. I am doing an ASP webpage for internal use at the company I work for.
I want to know if there is a way to insert/update data into multiple tables in 1 SQL statement.
If it requires functions | views or anything else that is fine but I don't want to have 3-4 different SQL statements to update 2-3 different columns in different tables.
I have a search option on my website, which should perform a search on 4 fields, as follows:
tblNews
headline
content
tblDatabank
filename
description
It only needs to return matches which are an exact match of their search criteria. For instance, searching for "I am here" would return a record which contained "I am here", but not just "I" or "I am" etc.
I need to return all these records as part of one recordset preferably, as I want to be able to order them etc., though I imagine you may suggest I use an array somehow to merge two recordets etc., then reorder them?
I have a website that we display images we have saved into a SQL Server 2000 database as binary BLOB. This is on a Windows 2003 Server. Just recently (a week ago) this website began to save the images it is displaying on the website as ASP pages in the Temporary Internet Files > IE.Content > Folder.
We have other websites where we use the exact same code and these do not save files on the server when they are displayed.
Here is the code to display the image:
Set rs = objConn.Execute( SQL )
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.BinaryWrite rs("Product_Image")
SQL is the SQL String to get the image from database
When I add this code:
Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg"
The images still display on the website, but now are saved in the Temporary Internet Files folder as JPG's.
