All I want to do is set a session variable in my default page which points to a directory on my server where all media for my site is contained. Now, I used a session variable to do this, and fell into a trap. Say I set it up like this:
Session("mediadir")="D:dev<sitename>media". Now, when anyone looks at my site, the mediadir variable is trying to point to their d:dev.... What should I do. I know it is crazy, but I have mental blank.
I need to set a default option
for a combo box that is not the first item in that combo box. Below
is an example. I can put the code below into a simple HTML file and
it works fine. It does NOT work in a ASP 3.0 app. I have tried two
seperate ASP apps as an example and NEITHER work. Code:
I'm building a system where a presenter uploads a PPT to my server and
then I show it to all the participants. The problem is that most of the
media in the PPT is usually linked, so I'll need to upload all that
too.
Assuming I can parse the PPT and figure the exact name and
location of each of the media files I need from his hard-disk, is there
any way I can upload all these files automatically, without having to
make the user choose each of these files manually? If that's not
possible, can I atleast show the user a page with a list of input boxes
of type file, pre-populated with the file-path and name of the media
files I need, so that the user can just click 'Submit' without having
to browse and select each of them?
Please say yes. It would be a major usability crisis if my users had to
keep hitting the browse button so many times for each PPT! Especially
when I know exactly what files I need and where they are! I know that
this has a lot to do with browser security, but there's got to be SOME
way out?
I have an example running at the moment that shares some 15,000 MP3 files however to offer these as downloadable i would be breaking the law i think !
I would like to set it up so that i have a method where the user can build a play list by going through the files and selecting them and then they would would be played either through the clients own system applications or through media components i can build into the site.
Maybe i could have some controls on there.
also why does the script not like to display files with the .ISO file extention ?
I am using some flash movies & images in a many pages of my site. (like page1.asp, page2.asp, page3.asp)
The problem is when I browse one page to another (redirecting from page1.asp to page2.asp) the other page is again start downloading these images & flash movies. But they are already downloaded by previous page (page1.asp)
Is there any way that to save time, I use the same media (images & flash) that are already downloaded by first page.
While for variables, we can do that by putting them in session. But for media...any know any way....

View Replies View RelatedI have a media player object in ASP on a default page. I'd like to have the
audio play continuously no matter what page the user goes to.
In all of the ASP files I have:
<!--#include file="header.html"--right after the <bodytag. The header
file has the page header graphic and menu. I tried to put the <OBJECTin
header.html but the playlist restarts on every page.
Any way to get the object to load and stay without restarting?

View Replies View RelatedI've seen sites selling jukeboxes that allow you to run a multimedia server, but is it possible to stream to WMP from ASP? It doesn't have to be a true stream. What I basically want to happen is somehow allow the user to create a playlist, or allow them to "queue it up" when clicking on different media types.
In other words, if I have 10 mp3s on my site, and the user wants to listen to 5 of them, without clicking on the next song to play after the first song is finished, and can queue additional songs while any song is playing. Can this be done?
anyone could assist me in finding an ASP script to find the current playing media in a local Windows Media Services server. Since the particular stream is a broadcast, it will have constantly changing media.

View Replies View RelatedI'm using a binary stream to send down a file from the web server. I've been having trouble with IE and getting it to recognize my file. I've added the filename as a paramater(?filename=file.jpgw) to handle IE's mime type mangling, but I'm still having trouble with IE's default Save As Type being HTML. When we send down a jpgw (geo-jpeg) file IE wants to save it as an HTML file. I've got the correct filename showing in the Filename box, and if I choose the All Files option from the Save As Type drop down then the file is saved with the correct extension. I'd like to have the All Files option choosen by default. I know it's just a couple of clicks but we have some noivce users that can't seem to get that
View Replies View RelatedI wrote an application that generates reports.It then presents a page where
I click a button [javascript:print()] to open the print page. However, I
have a fixed printer and would like to know how to print to the default
printer without me clicking anything. So the page will just load up and
print. Or when I click a button. I just don't want the select printer screen
to pop up. Much similar to clicking the print button on top of the address
bar in Internet Explorer.
my new site uses default.asp, instead of using index.asp. this is how my old site was done. now i get error 500. is this because it is trying to find index.asp or because my database isn;t workjing properly? i'm tired and being stupid i think. it's reall probably the database, but i just want to make sure in my sleep deprived state.

View Replies View RelatedI have two drop down lists on one of my pages.One of the them lists all the MONTHS in a year, second one list a number of years starting for 2004. Users couldn't be bothered selecting that every time they are filling it in for submission, so they want me to popolute the two fields with the current month and the year automatically.
Plus the month has to be selected as a current month up to the 7th of every month,on the 7th it changes to the correct month. of basically if date is < 07/08/2004 = July.
