I'm working on a document management app that saves scanned docs as PDF files in a local directory, then saves document metadata in an Internet-based SQL server.
The SQL server is then queried to retrieve document info and links are created that point to the files.
The code points to the proper local directory and file, but I can't get the browser to open the document in a target frame. If I open a test doc locally it works fine.

View Replies View RelatedI have a page in in ASP which lists static links to PDF files. When
users click on the links, they receive the following message:
right-clicking on the link and selecting "save target as" generates
the following error message from IE7:
"The file could not be written to the cache"
Clicking the link, and selecting "save" from the resultant dialog
generates:
"Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The
requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found please try
again later"
This page works fine in Mozilla.
I've researched this a bit and have read about the caching issues,
although none of the pages on the site address cache control. Any
thoughts or ideas as to why this isn't working?
(incidentally, the more i look at it, the more i feel i should point out that to be totally sure your SQL statement is correct you should write it like:
INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2,...)
VALUES (value1, value2,....)
so that you know your info is going to the right column on the table
I have a document saved to a public network server. The public directory grants change access to all users on the network. To keep my Word doc protected I am using the Security feature "File Sharing Options" in Word to attach a password to the document. This works as expected when users open the file with Windows Explorer.
I also have an ASP web page that has a link to my file on the public drive. When I click this link, the Word document loads without asking me for a password and is not read-only. (Note the link in formatted with an href attribute like this: file://servername/share/filename.doc)
Am I mssing something? Shouldn't the Word security work even if the file is accessed through a hyperlink?
I made a image upload a while ago, but too many people submits too large images (this is no problem, since ASP Upload won't upload too large images) but people gets frustrated when their images are not uploaded!I want to do so that you can't submit the form if the pictures are too large. I was thinking of doing a asp functions to check the file size and then pass the result to a javascript function, which will then alert the user and denie him to submit the images.I know how to do the javascript part, but I don't know how to check a local file's size with asp? I'd appreciate if someone could help me! Thanks.

I have uploaded files to a SQL Server DB using Pure ASP Upload, and that was a snap, but what I would like to do is create a link in my recordset from the file name in the database to the actual file that resides in a folder in the database so that when a user clicks on the link, the file will open.
I've done this successfully using another program but it used an ACCESS DB and I want to use it with SQL Server. Plus the ACCESS DB used a field with a data type of Binary.
Currently I am developping a internet "directory browser"
My page 'default.asp' has following entries:
CurrentPATH = Request("MyLink")
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(CurrentPATH)
Set oFolderContents = oFolder.Files
this works fine with 'default.asp?MyPath', where "MyPath" stands for i.e.
c: emp
but NOT with 'default.asp?MyFile', where MyFile stands for i.e.
c: empfile.txt
Is there a way to determine if the link contains a file or a path? Of course
you can check for a dot (after dot, normaly it is an extension, thus a
