when I download this page:
https://botoxparty.github.io/XP.css/
it looks bad in google chrome.
it seems that it deactivates the css if the page is opened offline.
is there any way to view the css files or resources offline?
Yes. There is a GitHub repository where you can see the project in its entirity. Just download the source code from the repository using the Download Zip button on the top right
and the code can be found under the gui folder
https://github.com/botoxparty/XP.css
Yes you can use HTTrack to download and save it
Hello I have an editable pdf that needs to be directly downloadable. Embedding is a bit tricky so I've decided to just have it downloaded directly to user's computers. It's on a Wordpress site and I have it downloading directly but I am still able to open it in a browser.
Can someone assist?
Thank you
This is a duplicate question. As noted at (HTML) Download a PDF file instead of opening them in browser when clicked HTML5 provides an attribute that forces the browser to download files when clicked; but it's considered to be a less than desirable practice. How a user interacts with a PDF should be left up to the user.
I would like to implement a functionality in an MVC3 web application which would allow users to edit Microsoft Office documents directly with WebDAV but unfortunately I have no clue where to start. I have to make links for the documents which, once clicked, would open the documents and after the user saved a document, it should be uploaded back to the server.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
You would need probably some web browser plugin (ActiveX or Netscape API), which would handle this for you. You can pass the url of the document (with some authentication cookie) to that plugin on clicking of the link. The plugin than can download the file, open it using ShellExecute or similar (e.g.Launch services on mac) and on close of the file you can upload the file.
This is of course very basic usage and does not employ the strength of webDAV protocol. You should handle webdav locks for example or detect etags of the file before upload etc. to prevent some data loss. You would have to read more about webdav: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3744.txt.
I have to create code to view any type of file in the browser as we are able to view in gmail.
Even though the user does not have the required software installed he should be able to view it.
The file should not be open in separate window.
The file should be opened in the browser itself
Thanks in advance
You'll need to process it on the server-side into some data structure that can be rendered in html/css/js on the client
We have created a web application, using ASP.NET, that allows users to upload documents and attach them to business entities, like customers, contacts and so on.
The application runs on the intranet and all files are uploaded through the web application into a shared folder on the server.
I would like, right from the web page, for the user to open the actual file, edit it and then save the changes back to the original location. This is a piece of cake in a Windows environment, I'm just wondering what, if any, is the best way to handle this in a web environment?
The files are usually Word documents, Excel documents and images.
Clarification
We would display all the attachments in a list format. We would like it so that the user would click on an edit link and the file would be opened in the appropriate application, for example, Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel. I think the file associations in Windows would already handle this. We are just trying to save our user the time to download the original file, make their changes, delete the old file, and the upload the new file.
SharePoint does this by exposing FrontPage extensions which Word and Excel know how to deal with.
If you want to look at a commercial product for ASP.NET that allows you to edit images with AJAX (no need for installed software), I work for a company that has one (Atalasoft)
WebDAV is probably what you want. (Free)
If all your client computers are Windows, map a shared folder on the server to the same drive letter on every client and use the file:// format.
Let's say you share \ServerName\ShareName to H: on every client's computer, the you can make the link as file://h:\pat_to_the_file_under_your_share\fileName.doc
If not every one of the client's computers are in Windows, then you might try to make your links as follows (not sure if ot works):
file://\ServerName\ShareName\pat_to_the_file_under_your_share\fileName.doc
I'm trying to do something with using file:// instead of http:// but it's real sporadic based on the browser. Seems to work fine in IE, okay in Firefox, and goes nowhere in Chrome.
Looks like I may just be stuck with downloading, editing, and re-uploading the document.
It sounds like you want something similar t eRoom, where the browser works in conjunction with a component that intercepts a stream from http, stores it in a temp folder, then fires up Word or Excel and allows you to edit the stream.
You may have to create a component that will intervene and create a temporary local copy of the file.
This tool should do what you need.
