Hi Everyone,
On my website I am successfully able to upload images to a folder location in my project folder and copy the file path to the database so that the images can be displayed and viewed in a data grid view. What I want to be able to do now is upload videos in the same way and then when they are displayed in the data grid view, play them in a pop up player or new window? How would I go about this as I have no idea?
Here is my code for uploading the files and displaying them so far
protected void UploadFile(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (btnBrowse.PostedFile != null && btnBrowse.PostedFile.ContentLength > 0)
{
try
{
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(btnBrowse.PostedFile.FileName);
string folder = Server.MapPath("~/BusinessProfilesContent/" + Session["BusinessName"]);
Directory.CreateDirectory(folder);
btnBrowse.PostedFile.SaveAs(Path.Combine(folder, fileName));
SqlConnection conn;
SqlCommand comm;
String connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ApplicationServices"].ConnectionString;
conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
comm = new SqlCommand("exec UploadContent @Description,@DateTime,@FilePath,@FileName,@BusinessName,@Username,@Incident_Name", conn);
comm.Parameters.Add("@Username", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Session["User"];
comm.Parameters.Add("@Description", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = txtAddComments.Text.Trim();
comm.Parameters.Add("@DateTime", System.Data.SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = System.DateTime.Now;
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@FilePath", "~/BusinessProfilesContent/" + Session["BusinessName"] + "/" + fileName);
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@FileName", fileName);
comm.Parameters.Add("@BusinessName", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Session["BusinessName"];
comm.Parameters.Add("@Incident_Name", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = DDLIncidentType.Text;
conn.Open();
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
Response.Write("Uploaded: " + fileName);
}
catch
{
Response.Write("Operation Failed!!!");
}
}
}
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label1.Text = "Welcome " + Session["User"];
Label2.Text = "Business: " + Session["BusinessName"];
SqlConnection conn;
SqlCommand comm;
String connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ApplicationServices"].ConnectionString;
conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
comm = new SqlCommand("SELECT * from Business a, User_Acc c Where c.Username = @Username AND a.Business_ID = c.Business_ID", conn);
comm.Parameters.Add("@Username", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Session["User"];
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = comm.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
lblOwner.Text += reader["Owner_Name"];
lblBusiness.Text += reader["Business_Name"];
lblAddress.Text += reader["Address_Line_1"] + " - " + reader["Address_Line_2"] + " - " + reader["Address_Line_3"];
lblProvince.Text += reader["Provence"];
lblCounty.Text += reader["County"];
lblVATNo.Text += reader["Vat_No"];
lblEmail.Text += reader["Email"];
lblTelephone.Text += reader["Telephone"];

comm1.Parameters.Add("@BusinessName", System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = Session["BusinessName"];
try
{

sda.SelectCommand = comm1;
sda.Fill(dt);
GridView1.DataSource = dt;
GridView1.DataBind();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Response.Write(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
connWrite.Close();
sda.Dispose();
connWrite.Dispose();
}
reader.Close();
conn.Close();
}
protected void GridView1_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
