Permission/security with ASP Barry Lapthorn8-Sep-02 5:07 Barry Lapthorn 8-Sep-02 5:07  Apologies if this is an old question. My website is hosted on a fairly standard NT setup with ASP (not ASP.net - though I think that is supported as well). The question is, I'd like to permission off a particular area of the web site, how do I do it? I don't have any kind of rights on the box. The only thing I do have control over is an access db file, and listing the contents of directories. I've looked at the help from my hosts and there doesn't seem to be anything in there Thanks. B. Re: Permission/security with ASP Enrico Elizar Samuel10-Sep-02 19:03 Enrico Elizar Samuel 10-Sep-02 19:03  Barry, I had met similar problem before. In a hosted environment, we have limited control over securing a portion of the website. ASP.NET has the solution to secure a folder using setting in web.config, but again some hosting servers only allow web.config file to resides in root folder. What I did in classic ASP and ASP.NET is to provide login/logout facility to authenticate user. The user credentials are stored in the database. Once the user is authenticated, I stored the authentication info in cookies. Then in the beginning of each web page I want to secure, I call a function to check the cookie and find out whether the current user is authenticated. This is a hard way but worth to try. If you need some sample codes, just drop me an email. Enrico Re: Permission/security with ASP Barry Lapthorn10-Sep-02 22:05 Barry Lapthorn 10-Sep-02 22:05  Enrico, Thanks for that I've already started doing something similar (when I get the time!) It's only to really protect parts of the site from the casual user so it doesn't have to be perfect! Thanks, Barry. B.

Yes. Ok couple of things (sorry if you know some of this, just going over it to make sure.) HTML element positioning is not like a Windows app where you can just set the left and top and have it sit wherever you want. By default it is in "flow" mode where each element flows on from the last. You can however absolutely position elements by using CSS, so overriding the flow behavouir. When you do this to an element it is taken out of the flow of the document and other elements which are not absolutely positioned will act as if that absolute element does not exist when determining their position. To get an element to position on a left and top basis you need the following CSS styling applied to it: style="position: absolute; top: 100px; left: 100px;" Also remember that there is a distinct Server side and Client side to a web app. So you cannot have a for loop in the onload event of your ASPX page which moves an element across the page, it won't work as at that point the HTML has not been sent back to the client. You have to use JavaScript on the client-side to do that (or SVG, SMIL etc., but still all on the client-side.) Of course in your ASPX onload event you can position a control and that position will be displayed to the client. e.g. Label1.top = 20; Label1.left = 20; In most cases using the CSS method is best and the easiest (and remember rather use a CSS external file rather than the inline style I showed.) However if you need some calculations to determine the position then you can use JavaScript on the client-side or whatever ASP.NET language you choose on the server-side. If none of the above is what you are looking for, post your code and what you want to do and I can help more Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa Re: Position od controls Mazdak7-Sep-02 5:25 Mazdak 7-Sep-02 5:25  Thank you Paul.

Is this the same function you wanted to write in javascript? There's no way you can run something on the client before you run Page_Load on the server. The server builds the page, sends it along with any Javascript and the browser picks that up and translates it. What exactly are you trying to do? Paul Re: Page_Load Paul Riley7-Sep-02 2:20 Paul Riley 7-Sep-02 2:20  Mazdak wrote: I want to get clients window size and pass it to sever before page load. The best thing I can think of (and there may be a better way) is to have a "hidden" input field on the form of the previous page then use JavaScript to populate it when the button/link is clicked. Then you should be able to pick that up at the server side. Paul HTML Help WorkShop problem Black ghost6-Sep-02 3:58 Black ghost 6-Sep-02 3:58  Hi, I need to create an CHM Help System file for my application. I created some HTML files using MS WORD 2000. In these files there are a lot of jpeg images. Some of them are not displayed on the final chm I cannot figure out why . Can anyone advise please? Black ghost Re: HTML Help WorkShop problem Philip Patrick10-Sep-02 22:59 Philip Patrick 10-Sep-02 22:59  Just do not create HTML files with Word. Word adds a lot of his stuff into HTML. Use the FrontPage instead. Also check the links in CHM file, try to navigate by yourself to the images, see if they are included in CHM Philip Patrick Web-site: www.stpworks.com "Two beer or not two beer?" Shakesbeer DataGrid subclass with auto-filter functionality D.D. de Kerf6-Sep-02 3:27 D.D. de Kerf 6-Sep-02 3:27  I'm trying to construct a subclass of the ASP.NET DataGrid with automatical filter functionality. The idea is as follows: The page that uses the DataGrid uses the SetQuery function to tell the grid what It's main query is. This happens in the Page_Load and it splits the query in 2 to seperatie the SELECT ... WHERE clause and the ORDER BY clause... The Grid subclass adds an empty row at the top of the row and puts dynamically created comboboxes in them with all unique values from that column that come from the query. When the user selects an item form one of those comboboxes, the grid refreshes itsself by binding the old query with some self-constructed restrictions... The PROBLEM is that I can't find the right place to do this 'requery'. If I put my code in the OnLoad function it's to early, because the selected value of the combobox isn't known yet. And if I put my code in the selectedIndexChanged event handler of the dynamically created combobox, it's to late to bind the grid, because when I do a DataBind with the new dataset (the dataset is OK!), the old data is still shown on the screen... I've been trying to fix this for about 2 days now, but can't get it to work. It is really important to me that this works, because if it doesn't, I'm going to have to place filters on every page manually instead of using this generic solution. Structured programming vs. chaotic mind boggling Stop and Start Web Server running COM Component Kevin McFarlane6-Sep-02 1:52 Kevin McFarlane 6-Sep-02 1:52  I have a COM component DLL created in Visual C++/ATL and used on an ASP page. When I make changes and recompile I get a link error saying that it can't open the DLL for writing. The web server still has access to it. How do I stop and restart the web server? This is on Windows NT4 Workstation + Option Pack. I vaguely remember that I must do net stop xxx net start xxx Kevin Re: Stop and Start Web Server running COM Component jungle10-Sep-02 3:22 jungle 10-Sep-02 3:22  net stop IISAdmin Server will then moan about stopping W3SVC etc. Once it has stopped everything (if everything goes off without a hitch), then do whatever you want with the DLL, and restart W3SVC etc. You can also do this using the 'Services' dialog (I think - been a while since I looked at an NT workstation machine).
