Simple - just use the ID to construct the file name you pass to the SaveAs method[^].
The FileUpload control does not automatically save a file to the server after the user selects the file to upload.
...
The code that you write to save the specified file should call the SaveAs method, which saves the contents of a file to a specified path on the server.

if (FileUpload1.HasFile)
{
string s = hidVal.Value.ToString();
string link = hidsymp.Value.ToString();
lblimg_error.Text = "";
string filename = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
string imagepath = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ImagePath"].ToString();
var logoimage = Path.Combine(imagepath, filename);
string extension = Path.GetExtension(filename).ToLower();
System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(FileUpload1.PostedFile.InputStream);
int height = img.Height;
int width = img.Width;
FileUpload1.SaveAs(logoimage);
}
so upload file in folder
if you want to rename file when upload then store file name in one string and change string value and save changable string name

Why have you replied to me instead of the person asking the question?

Can we access a scanner(which is at client environment) from the client browser using ASP.Net?
I see some articles that we can do it using ActiveX.
Can some have any example.
|
|
|
|

I don't believe JavaScript can do it. I know my credit union's app for scanning checks uses Java so that may be the other route you need to go. JavaScript can't access local system resources so you need something like ActiveX or Java that can.

Hi there! what a pleasure to join up to this forum 
I've been working on making a product more secure and I've noticed when sniffing the network I can see passwords being posted via the form on Login.aspx, I would of thought there is a way to hash the password prior to form post, I've done some searching with no luck so far.
Thanks.

You probably mean encryption - hash is one way...
Anyway there is no use of hashing/encrypting data before post. If hacker has access to the client he can see the data before hash/encryption too!
The reason you can see the plain data is:
1. You run sniffing software (what do you use) on the client or server. That's (hopefully not the way hacker does it)
2. You do not use secure protocols, like HTTPS...

Thanks, I was planning on using a hashing method rather than encryption as encryption could be undone if you knew the algorithm/keys etc, hashing could be matched but not undone, this gets me some where for securing the password without SSL, from the research done today I may just go SSL.

The problem is that hashing the password on the client doesn't solve anything, and can actually make your application less secure.
You want to hash the password on the client in case someone can sniff the traffic, so that they won't be able to see the password. But if they can sniff the traffic, they don't need to see the password; they can just submit the password hash instead, since that's what your server is expecting.
Worse, if they managed to get hold of your database of password hashes, they wouldn't need to try to crack them; they could just submit the hashes as if they were plain-text passwords.
SSL is definitely the way to go. Let the infrastructure protect your passwords in-flight, and leave the hashing on the server where it belongs.

There are javascript based md5 hash routines which you can use on the client and send sever side for storage. If someone sniffs it they still don't know what the password value is. This works because the password entered into the log-in page will be the real password which gets hashed server side for comparison. Of course, you will have to use the same routine server side before comparing the values.
|
|
|
|
|
But now the server isn't expecting the password; it's expecting the password hash.
If someone can sniff the network traffic, they won't be able to see the password, but they'll be able to see the password hash. And that's all they need to see.
An attacker who captures the password hash in-flight can simple submit a request with that hash, and the server will happily authenticate them.
Worse, if the attacker compromises the database and gets hold of your hashed passwords, they can authenticate as any user.
Client-side hashing doesn't make your application more secure. If anything, it makes it less secure.

Clearly a secure connection is what is required but it doesn't matter if the password is passed or the hash value is passed, if someone gains access to the data that you are directly authenticating to then the result is the same regardless, not more or less, just the same. If you are using .Net you can encrypt the values using settings in the config file, that would probably be the best technique.

Not quite.
If an attacker is sniffing the network traffic between the client and the server, then there's no hope either way.
However, if the attacker gets hold of a list of username and hashed passwords:
- If you're hashing the password on the server, then the attacker has to guess the password before they can authenticate.
- If you're hashing the password on the client, then the attacker can immediately authenticate as any user.
Your server isn't checking that the user knows the password, only that they know the hash of the password.
If you install an SSL certificate, and ensure that your login pages are only ever served over HTTPS, then you protect the data in-flight. But if you're going to do that, then why would you bother hashing the passwords on the client? Nobody can see the network traffic, so the argument for client-side hashing is gone.

Hello
I am trying to follow this tutorial
[^]
with an MS Access database in VB.NET.
In the code example (for Passwordreset.aspx), there is a reference to UserID. Is this the first column in the database, please?
This is what I have in my db:
http://www.bayingwolf.com/tutorial.jpg[^]
Would I just need to add a UserID column in order to follow the tutorial. There is also a reference in the Passwordreset.aspx code to:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
Would I just replace that with my own MS Access source?
Thank you.

It doesn't really matter. You just need to go through the code and understand it so that you can tweak it to work for you. Code is generally not something you can just copy and paste and have work right away. You'll need to understand the various pieces so you can implement it.

Hi Guys,
Am currently working as Junior .Net Developer,
However, Am requested by my manager to develop a web page called staff deployment plan that will involve two GridViews, that is the Parent GridView and Child GridView. The Parent GridView will display two columns which are EmployeeNames and WorkingDays - the working days column is a heading of Child GridView and the child gridview displays columns as current working days for example: the month of November 2014 has 20 working days excluding weekends and public holidays in South Africa, so the columns for child gridview are like this: 3 Nov, 4 Nov, 6 Nov...etc The problem that am experiencing now: Is to add LinkButton for each column on the Child GridView and to create command event for each linkbutton inside a child gridview (remember this child gridview is inside a parent gridview) and the link button when is click it should display a popup window. Any help in terms of how to accomplish this will be highly appreciated Kindest Regards Lucky Khoza

I need some help with the fundamentals.
I have a VB.Net Desktop app that I am converting to a Web App. I do not understand how the variable are stored/saved, etc.
Can something walk me through this?
The structure is the following:
1. Visual Studio 2013
2. Startup main page is a C# module. This does screen / view handling and OAuth authentication.
3. It references a class that is written in VB.2013 (this has the main business logic). Call this vbMain.
4. The VB.2013 class invokes another VB.2013 class (call it vbServHandler. This 2nd VB class handles all the real interface to the web services (REST) that was authenticated in the C# module.
It seem that the variable in the 1st VB Class (vbMain) are not preserved across requests but those in the 2nd VB class are.
I just do not understand this.
Can somesome please give me some?

The best I can do here is this, perhaps someone else can explain it better, but looks like there are no takers on this post.
A windows app, is really different. Within a windows app, you have access to so many resources, and can make global buffers, that can be used from form or dialog to form or dialog.
A web page, is a 1 time deal. you create the web page, and when done, or the page is unloaded, everything dies with it. When you create another page, you start all over again, and the process repeats. There are ways to store information from page to page, or transfer information from page to page, but that's provided by the web server or through the use of hyperlink query strings.
[Sort of an Anwser]
Some of the code is reusable, the rest just supports the windows controls and objects.
You really need to start from scratch, and design a web based system with the UI first. Now write the navigation part, 1 page to the other, make it look pretty, then start plugging in your logic from the other program, 1 piece at a time until it works correctly.
Sounds to me like you have very little experience at building a web application, and mid level experience at building a windows application. It's important to understand the different between the 2 before you try to port the windows app to a web app.
There's no magic or easy way to do it.
