I have been thinking of creating a website with asp.net.
Is it possible to develop asp.net sites in blogger? Wat i have seen is write something in plaintext or html and it wil be posted...but i want to write asp.net code using sql server in bloggger.
thx
There are a number of blog engines for asp.net. http://www.dotnetblogengine.net/ is one that I've heard is easy to use.
You can't write an asp.net application in blogger because blogger is a free service offered by Google, hosted on their own servers.
I'd assume you're referring to the way of inputting text. If that's the case, check out Textile.NET. This will simplify textual input and allow you to store values in the database which don't include any html.

i want to parse a table row(with current name eg.test) from site that requires user/pass and store this in a database table.
Is this possible to be done in asp.net (or asp.net mvc4)?
*i have the username/password
*the site login form is : http://exat.ru/toursearch/
Thanks ,
I think you are talking about web scraping, and ASP.net might not be the best fit for what you are trying. There are a number of web scraping frameworks out there, e.g.
http://scrapy.org/ for python
or
http://spyderwebtech.wordpress.com/2008/08/07/scraping-websites-with-curl/ using CURL
You can have a look at the 'HttpWebRequest' which can get the site data for you. Although you may have to parse it using a custom solution
I'm asking on behalf of somebody, so I don't have too many details.
What options are available for indexing site content in an ASP.NET web site? I suspect SQL Server's Full Text index may be used if the page content is stored in the database. How would I index dynamic and static content if that content isn't stored in the DB, but in html and aspx pages themselves?
We purchased Karamasoft Ultimate Search several years ago. It is a search engine add-on for your web site. I like it because it is a simple tool that taught us searching on our site. It is pretty inexpensive and we knew we could buy later if we needed more or different features. We needed something that would give us searching without having to do a lot of programming.
Specifically, this tool is a web crawler. It will run on your web server and it will act like an end-user and navigate through your site keeping a record of your web pages, so when a real users searches, they are told the pages that have the content they want.
Keep that in mind it is acting like an end-user, so your dynamic data is indexed right along with the static stuff because it indexes the final web page. We needed this feature and it is what appealed to us the most.
You can use a web crawler to crawl that site and add the content to a database which then is full text indexed. There are a number of web crawlers out there.
Lucene is a well known open source tool that would help you here. The main branch is Java based but there is a .Net port too.
Main site: http://lucene.apache.org/
.Net port: http://incubator.apache.org/lucene.net/
Having used several alternatives I would be loath to do anything other than Google Site Search.
The only reason I use SQL Full Text Search is to search through multiple columns. It's really hard to implement it in any effective manner.
I might end up having to build this, but it would be nice if there is a solution already...
I need to add functionality to a client's web page to allow them to upload files, and then to view and download them. We also need some form of authentication mechanism to restrict who has access to which files. I have used Neat Upload in the past and have found that it works pretty well, but it only handles upload. If there is a control that does everything, that would be pretty nice. Has anyone seen or used anything like that? I am working in ASP.Net. Our server is IIS 6, but I cannot confirm which version of IIS the client is using.
I did some more searching, and found this. I think it will fit our needs perfectly
edit: The link didn't come through. The solution is FileVista, at http://www.gleamtech.com/products/filevista/web-file-manager
I would recommend using Neat Upload or some other upload component and integrating ASP.NET membership services to manage permissions.
I work for a college and our main website has an ASP.NET based course information search which I created. This has become popular and our company facing website (training for companies) has asked for the same system on their website. I'm not involved in the day to day of either website but know theirs was made using Wordpress. Is it going to be possible for me to embed some ASP.NET code within some of the pages? Any articles on doing this?
EDIT:
The ASP.NET code that would appear in the actual Markup is minimal it's mainly a few asp:Literals I did this on purpose to hide most of it from the website developer to save myself hassle when something gets deleted by accident.
EDIT2 There was a response to do it as a webservice would this be possible. i.e. as search box on the main page displaying the results underneath.
Since asking this question a long time ago and creating a less than ideal iframe solution I have now found a great wordpress plugin called iframe-less
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/iframe-less-plugin/
Basically you give it an URL and it builds the content of that page directly into your wordpress page. So far it seems to work really well.
I have similar needs that the originator of this thread has. I maintain a CRM and corporate site that runs on ASP.NET/SQL along with a separate Wordpress php company blog. After we've been using Wordpress for a year, people here would love to be able to edit static content on our corporate site like we do in Wordpress, so I am looking at possible ASP.NET/Wordpress hybrid set ups.
I am hearing good things about "Phalanger": http://www.php-compiler.net
It is a PHP Language Compiler for the .NET Framework, and you can run PHP code in .NET
It was also great to find out in this thread that you can have PHP and ASP.NET in the same IIS web, its another reasonable sounding solution. If I had any nay reputation (I am new here) I'd give RickNZ a vote.
What you could do is create a web service on your ASP.NET application and then write a Wordpress plugin, that would read that service and display it in wordpress page.
This wasn't ideal but the solution I produced involved using IFrames which are still in the HTML 5 spec (infact they have some new attributes) so I think I am ok. Basically I make a page in wordpress with an IFrame and some javascript on its onload to make the iframe resize automatically based on the content size using the code below (iframe called frame with width 100 percent).
function autoIframe(){
try
{
var page_height = document.getElementById('frame').contentWindow.document.body.scrollHeight;
document.getElementById('frame').height = page_height+60;
}
catch (err)
{
window.status = err.message;
}
}
This code will resize on loading of the first content, if the content changes it will need to be called in someway. My solution was to call the method from the innerpage using parent.autoIFrame() each time a search was done.
p.s. The javascript will only work if the iframe and outer page are from the same domain (No cross site scripting).
Wordpress uses PHP and MySql. I have successfully installed and run it under Windows 2008 with IIS 7. The new CGI stuff in IIS 7 results in pretty good performance, too.
You can of course run a separate but related ASP.NET-based site on the same server.
You can also run a mixed ASP.NET + PHP site. IIS directs incoming requests to a particular HttpHandler based on the extension of the URL, so there's no reason why you can't mix *.php & *.aspx.
In fact, you can also do things like write a .NET-based HttpModule that integrates with a PHP/IIS site, to do things like logging, centralized cookie management, HTTP header "adjusting", etc.
If you want to put ASP.NET controls in a *.php file, that's a different thing entirely. To do that, you would need to write an HttpHandler that understood how to parse such a file. Either that, or just use iframes....
Short answer: no, not easily. Wordpress is PHP - you can't just put some .net code on a PHP page.
Long answer: yes, if... if you are really keen to do this, and it's worth the time and effort, you can work around it by using some of the strategies suggested already, e.g.: host the ASP.NET bit on a windows server (or use mono) and show it inside an iframe on the wordpress page.
Just bare in mind that this is not a common setup, and may be more difficult than simply creating or using some kind of Wordpress plugin.
I am exploring http://sourceforge.net/projects/wordpressnet/ if it helps anyone ...

I know it is an old post and I too do not prefer necroposting but
these resources may improve the existing content.
WordPress is a LAMP(Linux Apache MySQL PHP) application, and normally running in Linux servers. I don't think you can integrate ASP.Net to wordpress. But off course you can provide link to ASP.Net application from WordPress.
No, this won't work. You cannot use ASP.NET on pages that are served by WordPress. You can use ASP.NET in the same web site as Wordpress, for example by having certain directories or certain pages serve ASP.NET content, while the rest of the site still serves WordPress content.
However, if the ASP.NET code you wish to use is very simple, why not do it in PHP instead? WordPress uses PHP, which is very similar to ASP.NET.
I can be able to use both Asp.Net and Wordpress on my Host (Dinamo.net.tr)
without using any plugin or iframe.
They can really work together,
you just upload your Asp.Net C# files,
and install Wordpress at the same time.
So, I know there's a lot of this subject here and over the Internet. But most articles/questions refers to "static" url rewriting, like:
www.site.com/products.aspx?category=Books
So they rewrite it to
www.site.com/Products/Books
That's ok but I need something else.
The site is like a CMS, it has different types of content.
Nowadays to read the article titled "How StackOverflow helps you in your development" you need to go to an URL like the following.
www.site.com/viewContent.aspx?Id=1234
What I want to achive is:
www.site.com/Content/Articles/how-to-stackoverflow-helps-you-in-your-development
So as I understand, I need to involve ASP .NET in that, because first I need to retrieve the article (an its title of course) and then rewrite the URL.
But I'm wondering how the hell ASP .NET will know how to get that article if I go to that URL, it doesn't include the id anywhere...
So maybe I could accept something like
www.site.com/Content/Articles/1234/how-to-stackoverflow-helps-you-in-your-development
I'm kind of lost here really.. I've never done any URL Rewriting at all and I've googled a lot and I cannot find a way to do what I want. Maybe what I want is not called url rewriting??? I don't know...
The site is running under Windows 2003 Server, IIS6, ASP .NET 3.5 SP1
And of course, I need a free solution, cannot spend 100usd on the ISAPI mod (besides I don't know if that is going to do what I need).
Thanks to all and sorry if this is a duplicated question, but I couldn't find it.
EDIT: I don't need to support non-ASP.NET files (jpgs, gifs, etc) don't need to be rewritten. I just need to rewrite the viewContent page to include the content title into the URL.
You can use the new Routing that comes with ASP.Net 3.5 sp1 to have clean URLs.
This can even be done in web forms and not just MVC. ( I have done it myself). See here and here for exanples of how to set it up.
You can throw the Id of the article and the title in the URL and make the Id the real parameter that gets used to search for the article. That is what SO does. Try removing the question for the URL and it will take you to the same place.
Even if you don't use the Id you can pass the title of the article "how-to-stackoverflow-helps-you-in-your-development" to your DB and retreive the article based on the title.
With regards to IIS 6 it is a little trickier since IIS 6 by default can't handle extension-less URL's.
There are a few work arounds:
Use the wildcard mapping in IIS to map all requests to Asp.Net
Put Default.aspx at the end of your urls
See this post for other possible solutions.
Although the first solution may have performance issues if all content in your site goes through Asp.Net (even images, css, .html ...) in a small site it shouldn't matter. I have used this approach and there wasn't any major performance issues. I think it is the simplest solution. Here is the website I built with it
I hope this helps.
This one is free, I have used it and it works pretty well: http://www.codeplex.com/IIRF
The nice thing is that it will handle url's without an extension (i.e. .aspx, .html, etc.)
You can achieve this with ASP.NET routing.You can do this with ASP.NET MVC as well as Webforms.No need to do anything with IIS.
Check the below link
https://web.archive.org/web/20201205221404/https://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/051309-1.aspx#postadlink
I did URL routing in my web application within 1 hour with the details from the above link.Its quite simple to learn .They provide sample codes too.It will help you to do it easily
You can retrieve the Id of the content using the title.But title should be unique.You can use ajax to check whether the title is a already existing one when user takes mouse out from the textbox.
Easiest way is to add a http module to your current webforms project.
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/02/26/tip-trick-url-rewriting-with-asp-net.aspx
This shows you the basics of it, But it can easily be expanded so that the pages you want to rewite is taken from a database or even built on the fly.
ASP.net MVC is your friend for that
stackoverflow use MVC
