A big problem with most server statistics is that when they count file downloads, they are counting the number of requests to the server, not complete downloads. Is it possible to count downloads more accurately?
I can use the Response.IsClientConnected command immediately after streaming the file to the browser but it's working only for files with size less then 80MB . How can I resolve this problem?
I've designed a form and would like to send the form, when completed by the user, via e-mail. I've been successful in sending the blank form using this approach:
Set testMail=CreateObject("CDO.Message")
testMail.Subject=" Subject "
testMail.From="mail@abcd.com"
testMail.To="anotheremail@abcd.com"
testMail.CreateMHTMLBody "http://www.example.com/Filename.asp"
testMail.Send
set testMail=nothing
However, I haven't been able to pass any values to complete the form when emailed in this way even though the form when run from the server through a browser accepts and displays the values. Code:
Im using a form to collect user details, but its not going to a databse just to the clients email. Such as below:
I was wondering how to show feedback similar to 'Thank you your form has been sent', when the form has been successfully sent. Code:
if there is a way of verifying information that is in the registry of the user's computer? Or is there a way of checking if a file is on the c: of the user's computer??
I want to make a certain verification of who is entering my website.
but the IP address is never the same (since it is randomly given to the user) and I can't use the LOGON_USER variable because the users are not all in the same domain. And cookies are too easily destroyed with the IE options.
I have seen in many sites that when I enter my username/password, it displays a new page wherein it says "Verifying Username/Password. Please wait..."
I wonder what does it do behind the scene? Does it really take 5-6 seconds to verify a username/password? if yes, what code runs behind it? If no, then why they have to display that page?
I think the authentication process normally does not take more than 1 second.
I have a particular application that I want to verify if my database connection is available and, if so, display an appropriate message. Pretty simple I think but I can't seam to figure it out how to do it. I though maybe a simple "IF... THEN... ELSE..." maybe, such as
IF my_database_connection is up_and_available
THEN write "The Database is available"
ELSE write "The Database is NOT available"
END IF
Does anyone know exactly what I need to write in order to do this? In case you need to know I'm connecting to a MS Access database.
What is a good resource for integrating ASP applications with Active

Could you give me the direct links to the IIS Download as well as the Personal Web Server download.
I have an FTP server that I use to store documents. When a user needs to download any document the "download link" directly points to the FTP server (eg: <a href="ftp://some URL since URL are blocked">Download</a>). I want to avoid this and now have added a user name and password to the FTP sever. But instead of giving the link as "ftp://usernameassword@myftpserver.com/document.xls, I want a much secure way of letting the user download the file without letting the user know about the FTP server username and password.
View Replies View RelatedI need to log how many times one spesific file is downloaded from my

I have an Access db with usernames and passwords set up on a web site. Upon signing in to a password protected asp page which contains a link to an exe file, the user clicks the link and the browser asks to either Open or Save the file.All this works fine, but if the user simply types the full path to in the address bar, the browser again asks the user to either Open or Save the file - thus bypassing the security Is there a way to prevent this "back door" of accessing the file or would I have to set up an FTP mechanism.

View Replies View RelatedI want to provide the ability to download files from a web page based on whether a user has paid for the file. I therefore need to hide the URL from the user.

View Replies View RelatedI have an VB ASP page that creates, using a linked database, ad-hoc queries. Like, the user selects what table to look into, what fields, any criterias (ex: PROVINCE="QC"), etc. That part is easy.The problem is, I would like the results to be outputted in MS EXCEL. Well, it's not my idea, but I have to do it. Any ideas how this can be done?
My only idea would be that:
1) The ASP page writes to a file on the server and offer a link to the user to download that file.
2) User Downloads
3) We can't have these Excel files cluttering up the server, so the file would also have to be deleted automatically.
Is this even remotely possible?
I'm not too good with ASP, so is it even possible to write to file? Could I create a Workbook/worksheet object using VB ASP?Can I delete the file programatically
Does anyone know of a way to be able to take 10 urls which point to zip files and then for it to download them one by one, i.e. when one has finished to then begin the next one.
This is for an asp site which is why i posted it here, but i am not sure where to post this as i dont even know how to go about doing it.
I have a website setup which also provide ability to download latest version
of our Software by logging into the webpage. All latest softwares (ONLY ONE
FILE .EXE for each Software) are located in the "/Download" folder of my
website. Customer will login to website and the ASP page decide the software
that this user has purchased and privide ONLY that Hyperlink to download the
latest Version file.
My problem is if somoe body know the path and file name then they directly
put the URL in address bar and will get latest file. How do I restrict that?
Please suggest all possible solutions.
I have a file that SHOULD only be made accessable to registered users. They must login to get to the download page. The problem I have is that once a user logs in an gets to that page they can potentially share the web link to that file with anyone and that unregistered user can bypass logging in.
I was thinking something along the lines of download.com where when you click download, the actual files location only appears for a split second, pops up the download box, then it switches to another webaddress?
I have a website that (like many) allows users to download large files. Some are up to several hundred MB in size. The problem is that since switching to IIS 6.0, the size of the file is limited by the ASPBufferingLimit, and it's size seems to be limited to only 4294967295 bytes.
That's pretty big but it's not quite big enough and I need to disable it. Some people have recommended setting it to -1 via:
c:
cd C:inetpubadminscripts
cscript adsutil.vbs set /w3svc/1/aspbufferinglimit -1
but the -1 doesn't really "take"...IIS keeps it at 4294967295.
Setting it to 0 does "take", but then IIS returns nothing (0 bytes).
How do I disable or workaround this security feature in IIS which is not allowing people to download large files?
I currently need to allow users to download a series of Excel files from the intranet which were generated individually using ASP. Rather than have them click one link at a time to download only one file, I want to find out if it is possible to let them download the whole series of files with one link click.
The users are all on the LAN so bandwidth is not an issue. Furthermore, the total size of all the files is only 100kb.
