how to save file in ASP.NET MVC with ajaxSubmit in chrome ?

I have an InfoPath web-enabled form in MOSS 2007, that is integrated with a K2 blackpoint process for an approval workflow.

Once the form (a Purchase Order request form) has been approved in the K2 workflow process, I switch the form view to a "print-friendly" view for the requestor to view from the browser.  However, now I need to go one step further with this scenario:

1) I need to somehow insert/embed an image with the scanned-in signature of the approver (likely stored in a SP doc library) at the signature line section of my form.  Also, what are the security requirements for storing such images, but not granting all users access to these (e.g. only services accounts that need to access this for embedding into the form, etc.)?

2) Then I need to convert this final "print-friendly" view of the form (with the signature image) to a PDF document so that I can store it in SharePoint (and email it to the requestor using K2's email event capabilities).

Can anyone help me with a solution to both of these requirement, or point me to some resources for this (even 3rd party components are open-game).

thanks!

Hi,

I am relatively new to MVC , i am getting the following error when i try to browse to a page in which i have used usercontrol and within the usercontrol i have a simple grid.

Error: Do you want to save this file, or find a program online to open it?

I am returning the data from the controller like this

 var jsonData = new
                {
                    total = 1,
                    page = 1,
                    records = myRequests.Count,
                    rows = new[]{myRequests.ToArray()                 
                    }

I've created a form using MS Word Document (2007) and lock it (protect it) so that users will be able to fill in the required fields.
then i've created a Content Type and uploaded the MS word form to be used as a template.

Then I've created a document library and enabled the content type and associate the above form for the library, so that when users click on New button the form will open.

everythings goes fine till here.

The problem is when users clicks on New and save the file back to the library, It doesn't save it with a unique name, instead it is over writting the existing one.
in other words, if employee 1 fill up the form and save it and later on employee 2 accessed the library and fill up a new form, he will overwrite what employee 1 has already saved!!

Is there a way to give every new created file a unique name? maybe (username+time)??

Hi, I have a Document Library mapped to a drive letter. I am able to browse the drive through Windows Explorer. However when I try to save a document to the drive Word returns, 'Unable to connect to the Web server.' .  I have been unable to find any information regarding this error message. If I try to create a document in the Document Library through Windows Explorer and the mapped drive, I get a different error message: 'Unable to create the file 'New Microsoft Office Word Document.docx' There is no user session key for the specified logon session.' After I click OKand refresh the directory, a 0 KB New Microsoft Word Document.docx file has been created. When that file is opened, it is in Read-Only mode.

Environment:

Windows Server 2003 R2
Webclient service started
Signed into the Microsoft Online Services Sign in Application
IE configured through the sign in application
site added to the trusted sites in IE

Thank you again for your input.

This is using SQL Server 2005. I've had several problems and this is where I've ended up. 1. Despite the claim that this will create a new DB it doesn't.  I was getting errors about the new DB not having the specified logical file name (despite the new DB not existing).  At the time I was specifying the logical file name as it appeared in the backup. 2. if I manually create the DB I still get the error as above unless I manually change the logical file name via sql management studio.  This is meant to be an automated solution so that is not accceptable. 3. I am now giving it the logical file name of the DB that I want to restore onto (if it doesn't exist I create it), but now it's trying to save the file with the old physical file name, which is absolutely *not* what I want. My instincts tell me I need to change the logical file name in the database I'm wanting to restore onto, but I don't know how to do this via SMO.  All of the explanations I've seen are through the SQL Management Studio and that is not acceptable as this needs to be an automated solution. I have copy/pasted the code from the msdn examples verbatim changing only the dbName and the .bak file location and it has consistently failed. Here is the code in it's current incarnation. var serverName = @"myServer"; var dbName = "MIQDesignTest3"; var backupFileN

Hi All, I have a requirement to create an event handler that will take an e-mail sent to a doc library and save it as an .MSG file within the library? Any help/inputs on getting this done is much appreciated.  Hanif

I have an excel sheet that i would like to use on the net. I can convert it using spreadsheetconverter but it will not save the changes as it converts it to an htm file.  But works (limited functions though, it wont convert sliders) Can I use VWD somehow so it reads the excel file and then if I make changes, to save them to the file. So when I view it again no the net it sees the changes?? Goal is the use the excel file on the net without having to have it on someones computer I just started VWD  

From a document library I click on "Edit in Microsoft Excel (or Word) and the application is not open I get the error "The converter failed to to save the file".  It never opens the application and I'm returned to the document library.  If I already have the application it doesn't generate the error.  I'm running Office 2007

I have a Dataview bound to Document Library with the New Document button enabled. It apears to upload but can't find the files anywhere. I don't have a Shared Document folder. How and where do you set where to upload the file? A specific folder would be nice and If I could make it dynamic tied to QueryString Ideal. Going a bit further, the library I'm bound to has many 3 digit numeric folders that are dynamically created when entries are added to another list. The page that is calling my dataview has a querystring that will tie into the folder I want to drop files into. Just wondering how I can dynamically set the upload destination. Currently this is the generated code: <input type="button" value="Save" name="btnSave" onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__commit')}" /> <a href="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__cancel;dvt_1_form_insertmode={1}')}">Upload File</a> I have some other code that calls the classic file upload page that is working perfectly, but I'd really prefer the clean and simple UI of the DataView control if I could make it work. Thanks!

I need to know the best way to have a user click a link that will download a file that is out on the server and save it to a specific location on their computer.  The file is a custom template for Microsoft Outlook signature.  Thus, it has to be in a certain folder and this folder will have a different location if the user has Windows 7 vs Windows XP. I wrote a ASP.NET page that captures the user that is logged in and use WebClient.DownloadFile to download the file.  However, I am getting an access is denied error.  Apparently my server doesn't have access to write to the user's folder.  My questions are. 1. How do I solve this and make it so that my server can write to the user's PC? 2. Is there a better way to roll out a custom Outlook template that the entire company should use?  Thank you,

I have several pages in my site that are using an UpdatePanel to allow partial postbacks to step through the process of selecting options for a dynamic report.  An internal user just came to me and said "I ran this report and then clicked 'File -> Save As .mht' to save it to my desktop, and when I opened the resulting file, it was the first selection option rather than the result.

I have verified myself that this is the case.  If this particular page has for example, 4 states: 1st option, 2nd option, 3rd option, Resulting Report..  All coming from the same page, just different panels being shown for each step.  When the user is viewing the resulting report and clicks File -> Save As, the file that is saved is of the 1st option, not the results.

I know one way around this would be to add a link to the page to "Save as PDF" or whatever, and then I'd have to write the code to generate that file...  and I can do that if I need to.  I just thought that the user should also be able to Save their current page at any point by clicking Save As.

Is this possible with MS Ajax?  Maybe this is an Ajax thing, and not a MS thing? 

Anybody know how to save the web page's current view (ie: what is currently visible)?

Thanks!

Hi,

I have an ASP intranet site which opens word documents from a shared network drive (link is stored in a DB).  When the user then goes to save the document, it points the user to their default location - say C:\myprofile\my documents.  How can i get it so that the user can just click on save and it saves it in the location it got the file from?  I am using the following code to grab the document:

Response.AddHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" & docfilename)
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word"
Response.BinaryWrite(fileData)
Response.[End]()

If i navigate through the network share manually through windows, open the document and click save - it will save it to the right location.

Thanks
