Been struggling over this issue for a long while. We store PDF's in our SQL Server database. And I do a BinaryWrite to display the PDF.
It works for me without issue, on FireFox, IE, and Opera! But we are receiving feedback that some users are receiving the file does not begin with %PDF message ....
I have a class, written in ASP, to upload files. The files are uploaded and there is no problem after downloading BUT
when browser reads PDF file, a message box appears saying " File does not begin with '%PDF-'. AND
When I open it directly from the disk after downloading, Acrobat Reader shows "Unable to decode".
I am using IE 5.0.
I am doing a binaryWrite to allow users to download files. The problem
occurs if the file is too big. Some of the files i have are close to
100 megs. I read on msdn that if the data is greater than 4MB it is
advisable to break it up into multiple chunks Code:
I am developing a budget app using asp, access and Dreamweaver. What I need is a way to loop so that I can display months starting with a designated begininng fiscal month. In this case it is July. I need to display 6 months in a row starting with July and in a separate table below I need to display the rest of the months in the fiscal year Jan - Jun. Like so....
7 8 9 10 11 12
1 2 3 4 5 6
I think it will take two separate while loops.
it is possible to print binary content via response.BinaryWrite!
But is it possible to determine as a value?
(I get content from another site, they send to me wrong character because of the chracter coding.I want to get it as binary.I can already get, but I can't edit
help me regarding the 'Response.BinaryWrite' I am making one web application where I need to store some of client logo's and others images. In this context I am able to store images into .DB file and even able to display into browser to. But it seems to be 'Response.BinaryWrite' does not support 'html/text' hearder if you user 'BinaryWrite'? I had tried many way to do so but its does not write binary if pages content <html><body> tag's.
I could had done it by uploading images into disk, which is quite simple method and faster too<img src"images/<%=filename%>.jpg/gif"> by having unique file name. But I am not the person who is going to monitor it as user itself has a persmission through the web to have there image as they want to give file name etc. Also I can't have individual directory for each users as if tomorrow users grow then what I suppose to do?
I am using Response.BinaryWrite to write a PDF to the browser. Everything works great on IE and Safari but when I try to use Firefox the browser hangs. The title bar says application/pdf but nothing ever shows up. Going directly to the pdf works fine but unfortunately am unable to do that in the long run and must use BinaryWrite.
View Replies View RelatedI have a problem when trying to do response.binarywrite for files > 64kb. I am reading a blob data from the database, this blob data contains files. To read from database ADODB.Recordset is used. I am using the following code to write on to the browser:
Response.ContentType="application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.BinaryWrite rs.fields(blob field)
This works fine when the blob data is < 64 kb but when this limit exceeds then an error is thrown. how I can go about and read files > 64 kb ? Is there a maximum limit on the size of the file that can be used with response.binarywrite?
I have a commercial database written in access and I'm trying to display some images, jpegs, stored in the DB on web page. My code is as follows:
Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg"
sql = "SELECT PartImage FROM Parts WHERE ShortID='AAPTM01'"
Set rs = AMConn.execute(sql)
If not rs.eof Then
PicSize = rs("PartImage").ActualSize
if PicSize > 0 then
Response.BinaryWrite
rs("PartImage").GetChunk(rs("PartImage").ActualSize)
end if
End If
set rs = nothing
All i get on the page is the image not found icon with the red cross in IE.
What could possibly be going on?
In Windows 2000 IIS 5 SP3 this:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;276488
is not working. No error but wants to save binary.asp to disk and can't. I have it in a High Isolation Application.
I'm having some problems with the Reponse.BinaryWrite, IE 6.0 and Adobe Reader 6.0. When I try to write a pdf-file to an IE browser with a Adobe Reader 6.0 installed then it just displays a blank page and the earth on the top rigth corner keeps turning like it haven't read the pdf-file (for 10+ minutes on a lan).
If I change the settings on the Adobe Reader 6.0 to not open in a browser, then it works fine. If I use Mozilla 1.4 then it opens fine as well.It works fine as well with Adobe Reader 5.1. The code looks like this:
[Some code that places the pdf-file in a byte array called vntStream]
Response.Clear
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf"
Response.BinaryWrite = vntStream
Response.end
I have tried to place a Response.Flush after the BinaryWrite, but it just makes the Adobe plug-in say something like "document corupted".

html tags inside?
I need to write the binary data to the client browser inside the html tags.
I am using Response.BinaryWrite to display JPEG's to the browser. The
problem is that in IE, one particular JPEG is loading very slow. Normal
JPEG's take a few seconds, but this one sometimes takes up to 30 seconds.
THe weird thing is that if I refresh really quick, the JPEG appears for quick
second, and then the new Response.BinaryWrite kicks in. So, it looks like
the browser has the image, but for some reason it is not finishing loading it
into the browser. Code:
when I upload images to a db, everything seems to work smoothly. But when I'm trying to view the page, it seems that there is sth wrong with images - all of them are cut at the bottom. The image size is correct, the filesize is ok, but the bottom part of the image is blank...
View Replies View RelatedI`m writing a little routine that captures the data from a form submit (ie a picture) and then at the back end the asp will saved it back out into a file on the server.
I can capture the file fine and display the binary data to the screen.. but now I`m trying to write the data back into a file on the server. After a bit of searching around on the net I found that most people where suggesting using the ADODB.Stream functions.
So this is what I've got but for some reason when I go to write the binary variable it complains. Code:
I made a posting a while ago regarding doing a binarywrite of a large
file in chunks and got a lot of helpful responses. I was able to make
it work then. Unfortunately when the project is being tested its not
working and I am getting some weird results when testing. A month ago I
was able to stream a file of size 80Mb and it worked like a dream
Yesterday it would not work on the same file, but would stream smaller
files. The largest file i was able to stream yesterday was 55.5MB.
Today it wouldnot work with the 55.5MB file but only with a file of max
size of around 54.5MB. I can't seem to figure out what is causing this.
Because the code is the same. I actually get no error, with the file
size i mentioned i get a popup window within seconds for the file
download. But anything greater than that file size (max size as of
today 54.5) even if it is an MB more i get a blank screen but it never
pop ups the file download box Code:
It involves using ASP/VbScript and ADODB.Stream to read binary data from a *.DOC or *.RTF
file and then send it to the user with Response.ContentType and BinaryWrite.
Everything works fine until I try to Replace() certain strings in the *.RTF
file with my own data. I'm assuming Replace() is choking on the binary characters, or
incorrectly thinking 0x00 values are marking end of string. Code:
i'm converting an image file to hexa..then the hexa is saved to a text file..
can any one help me how to read the content text of a text file?...
im doing it this way because i don't want to save hexa in my database, because it makes the database slower to open up.
is there a way, using asp, to find out the width and height of an image file?

View Replies View RelatedThis question has to do with MS file search but it is happening only with
..asp pages, so I though someone programming with .asp pages has experienced
the same situation.
I'm trying to find .asp pages with a certain table name (i.e.
"renewalInfo" )
When I ran the search I get no results. I know that I have that string in a
couple of pages. My file system search engine is working fine with other
file types, like Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
I tried typing the string outside the <% %> tags and when I do the search I
get the file results, so it seems like if the search engine in my file
system was not searching inside the <%%> tags. Code:
I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.
I'm trying to run the server.execute command inside a executed file. It doesn't work. Can anybody tell me why? I've searched all around and haven't found a reason. Could it be because it's not supose to work, or is the syntax diferent then in the first file?
It's something like this:
File 1
...
<%Server.Execute("File2.asp")%>
...
File 2
...
<%Server.Execute("file3.asp")%>
...
File 3
<HTML>
<body>
Hello!
</body>
</HTML>
Is this possible?

I would like to add a facility to my web page which allows users to upload basic files (word, excel, text, gif, jpg etc) to the server.
I know there's a facility to do this using HMTL forms, but I don't know how to handle the file on the server side.
What I think I need is an ASP file running some code to manipulate the filesystemobject, allowing me to receive the file and store it in the filesystem on the server. It would be nice to access some of the file properties too (name, type etc).
I've seen a few custom components online which allow you to do this, but I can't depend on installing them. I need to be able to script it myself.
