Streaming Databased Images Using HttpHandler

by

For a long time now I have noticed something annoying when working on Web Application projects involving databased images on my local machine. By local I mean that it’s a typical environment with VS 2008 and SQL Server 2005 on my workstation. Whenever I use an HttpHandler to display the images on my local, only some of the images render on each page load.

Upload large files in .NET

by

I’ve done a good bit of research to find an upload component for .NET that I can use to upload large files, has a progress bar, and can resume the upload of large files. I’ve come across some components like AjaxUploader, SlickUpload, and PowUpload, to name a few. Each of these options cost money and only PowUpload does the resumable upload, but it does it with a java applet. I’m willing to pay for a component that does those things well, but if I could write it myself that would be best.

Filehandler in asp.net

by

I need to track when a pdf is opened in my web app. Right now I am writing to a database when a user clicks on the link and then using window.open from the code behind which isn’t ideal since Safari blocks popups and other web browsers give a warning when it runs so I was thinking would a Filehandler be what I need to use. I haven’t used a Filehandler in the past so is this something that would work? The pdf is not in binary form, it’s just a static file sitting in a directory.
