I have some IIS logs with header information I'd like to be parsed by pre-existing frameworks. Can I leverage the part of ASP.NET that uses Browser Definition Files perhaps in tandem with the 51 Degrees mobi tools.
What is the right .NET API (or similar) that I should use to analyze log files?
I'm doing some open source work for 51Degrees at the moment. I wrote an article recently about parsing W3C log files using the C implementation of the API. You can find the article here. Is this the kind of thing you were looking for? Hope this helps.

I am learning Spring 3.x MVC. I now have a regular web page setup with built in css in the html.
My first question - where should I store external css files and link them with the html files and still keep the L18n option available in the future? Should I keep the css in the WEB-INF/resources/css and make the resource directly available? But would it eliminate the L18n option?
My second question - to query a database, I have a query template XML file. I need to load the template into my model and modify a few keywords and send it through the database api. First thing that came to my mind is to put the keywords into something like ${keywords} in the template (like how the views are resolved), but I am not sure where to store the XML file (in the classpath? or in the web-inf?)? and how to set the variable in the template XML from my model?
Thanks,
Jason
It seem like you have two separate questions here.
In regards to CSS location, I'd recommend to try out Spring Roo tool. You can quickly generate a working web application with l18n support and number of other advanced features. This application could serve as a foundation for your own app or you can study its structure to learn many good practices for building Spring web applications.
In regards to your second question it is unclear what you want to substitute and at what time (i.e. deployment time or runtime) and also unclear what SQL templates you are using. I'd recommend to use iBatis/MyBatis framework, which has great integration with Spring and advanced templating support. There you can load your Spring contexts and template xmls from the Java application classpath.
Hi
I’m trying to develop an E-Paper website using .Net. But At first the content of the website need to grab from the Quark file. What is the procedure to get the content from the Quark file according to the Layout?
So it would be highly appreciated to provide some information regarding this subject.
Thanks…
This is going to be a tough project since the QuarkXpress files are 1) proprietary and therefore are not well documented, and 2) binary so the data is harder to get at. This will require a lot more work than a post on StackOverflow.com can help with.
First, ASP.NET really isn't the right framework for it. At least, you should develop this as a C# or VB code library project which is then consumed by a ASP.NET web application.
In order to parse the file, you might want to start off by reading Reverse engineering the Quark Xpress file format. This forum, Code for QuarkXPress file format support, also seems to have some good information. You will want to use what you learn from those articles to parse the binary and convert it to the proper types or structures. Here on some links on how to parse binary files in C#:
http://www.dotnetperls.com/binaryreader
Read binary file into a struct
http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/csharp/readbinary.html
You may also want to check out this forum posting on How to create dynamic QuarkXPress files in .Net FrameWork C#. It seems that Quark has a C# API for dealing with Quark files if you have QuarkXpress Server.
I'm trying to (HTTP) upload a binary file programmatically from within VBA. I intend to put an ASPX page on the server to accept the file and certain additional parameters.
I know there are lots of nice ways to do that (e.g. use web service instead of aspx), but my constraint is that it must run in VBA (in an excel file), and that I cannot install any additional components on the client.
So I guess I'll use WinHTTP, and I've found several examples to post form data, but not to post a binary file. I probably need to base64 the file contents?
So my questions are:
Do I need to do the encoding manually or can I make WinHTTP do that?
Is there a better utility to use than WinHTTP? (Remember I don't want to install any additional software, it must be shipped with WinXP Pro, Office 2007 or a .NET framework, e.g.)
Is there a better way to go, e.g. using ASP.NET web services?
Thx, chiccodoro
You may use base64 but typically writing binary is easier.
The hurdle you have to leap is constructing a valid multi-par/form POST. This is completely possible using WinHTTP, although I have not done it in years and am not tooled to provide sample code, it is not trivial.
You can reference the following articles for examples of how to do this with C# HttpWebRequest. The WinHTTP api is a bit different of course but the salient points to take away from the articles is the structure of the POST body.
C# File Upload with form fields, cookies and headers (by yours truly)
UploadFileEx: C#'s WebClient.UploadFile with more functionality (a bit more procedural and may be easier to suss out the format)
Typically I provide sample code, but as I said, I do not have any stone-age tools set up right now ;-).

I'm currently looking at ways to allow people to select multiple files at once to batch upload images. I'm evaluating these options for my ASP.NET web app:
YUI Uploader
Flajaxian
SWFUpload
Dojo Toolkit Multi file uploader
I'm leaning toward YUI because the documentation is clear and I basically already wrote the file uploaders and thumbnailers which Flajaxian provides, the javascript seems more compact too. I can't even begin evaluating Dojo because it's unclear to me how to get the parts that would integrate with .NET out of the PHP examples.
Has anyone had really good or really bad experiences with any of these?
SWFUploader seems to be the best option here. Compact, stylable with CSS, open source on code.google.com .
Thanks for everyone's opinion but I ended up using YUI Uploader because that's what flickr uses and the project spec was basically an analysis of flickr's features.
The experience of using it was essentially excellent, and being able to compare it to what flickr did was also helpful.
Look at this one too. It's free.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/FlashUpload.aspx
I'm using it in an application I'm developing for uploading multiple music files. The author provides the source code as a VS 2008 project and the source Flash/Flex file. Works like a charm.
Either I had a bad dream recently or I am just too stupid to google, but I remember that someone somewhere wrote that ASP.net has a Function which allows "merging" multiple JavaScript files automatically and only delivering one file to the client, thus reducing the number of HTTP Requests.
Server Side, you still kept all the individual .js files, but the Runtime itself then creates one big JavaScript file which is then included in the script-tag instead and can be properly cached etc.
In case that this function really exists and is not just a product of my imagination, can someone point me in the right direction please?
It's called Script Combining. There is a video example from asp.net explaining it here.
you can find here an usefull article for it
