SessionBridge

 Home Page Home Page
Categories:
Author: Westglenn Software
Latest version: 2.0.0.4
Description: Allows ASP.NET and ASP pages to share session variables.
SessionBridge includes a COM object that intercepts your calls to ASP's Session variables and stores them as ASP.Net session variables. You do have to make changes to your ASP code (most of these can be handled by an automated search and replace), but since SessionBridge is using ASP.NET's Session object to store the variables, your ASP.NET code is exactly what you would normally write. When you have converted your entire application, you are not using SessionBridge at all anymore and are left with standard ASP.NET code.

SlickUpload

 Home Page Home Page
Categories:
Author: Krystalware
Latest version: 2.6
Description: ASP.NET HttpModule that provides scalable upload handling.

ASP.NET doesn't have any capacity to stream requests to disk, and thus will load an entire upload into memory before processing it. This can cause scalability problems, as well as opening up a possible vulnerability to a denial of service (DOS) attack. SlickUpload fixes these problems by intercepting the request before the ASP.NET page processing engine gets it, and streaming it in chunks directly to disk or to a database. This eliminates the problem of loading the request into memory.
SlickUpload also provides progress and status information during the upload process, allowing an application to display upload status to the user in real time.

- Uploading files by checking boxes and clicking a button or keyboard command.
- Let Dispatch handle the task of determining which files need to be uploaded.
- Track modified files in realtime or do a file comparison-when you're ready to deploy.
- Specify the FTP settings for your site and you're set. Optionally, you can configure file filters using wildcard patterns to filter out files that shouldn't be deployed.
- Local connection string different from your production connection string? Use String Replacement to replace strings in any project file on-upload.
- In addition to file-change tracking, Dispatch offers File Comparison at a per-directory level in two different modes, so you can identify dirty files.
- The Remote View Overlay feature fuses your remote file system directly on top of your local file system, giving an overview of project inconsistencies.
- Items that exist remotely can be downloaded, renamed and deleted. Remote-only items appear opaque and are noted with a red bullet. Items that exist locally-only are noted with a green bullet.
- As an option, Dispatch can quietly monitor changes to files within your projects. When a file is added, renamed or updated, the file will be queued for upload. When you are ready to deploy, click the Upload button at the top and Dispatch will asynchronously transfer your files to your server.
- Integration with Visual Studio 2005/2008.

Ajaxium for ASP.NET

 Home Page Home Page
Categories:
Author: Ajaxium
Latest version: 2.0.2
Description: AJAX engine for ASP.NET focusing on having sites remain accessible to all search engines and old browsers thanks to an automatic and silent degradation to classic ASP.NET.

Ajaxium handles the default ASP.NET postback client-side method and tries to perform a hidden AJAX request instead. The server-side code detects that the request has been performed in an AJAX-friendly way and after executing the page, analyzes the difference between the HTML displayed on the client and the newly generated content. If the AJAX request has failed for some reason, the client-side code executes the default ASP.NET postback method and the website works in an ASP.NET mode.

Features include:
- supports most ASP.NET controls
- ability to perform an update of single and multiple panels or the whole ASP.NET form automatically
- compression of each AJAX response
- preserves controls' focus during AJAX-based updates
- timers
- Loading notification panels
- can handle transfer from one ASP.NET page to another

Categories:
Author: metaSapiens
Latest version: 1.6.2.2
Description: Well-defined URLs for your ASP.NET sites and applications.
Linking to a web page is very easy, both in simple HTML and in ASP.NET. Linking to a page that really exists, passing the right parameters, and parsing these parameters, is a bit different.
PageMethods takes care of your URLs. It proposes a solution to define structured URLs for each of your pages, as well as a clean and simple way to call them.
The idea is based on strict page inputs and declarative parameter binding. With PageMethods, each page exposes a set of methods that represent the different ways to call the page. All you have to do to start benefiting from sharp URLs is to add methods to your pages, and mark these methods with attributes provided by PageMethods.

Features include:
- Object-oriented approach for hyperlinks
- No concatenations of strings required anymore
- Strongly typed parameters
- Automated parameter handling
- Parameter validation
- Compile-time checks
- Code completion
- Integrated with Visual Studio 2003 and 2005
- Support for HTTP GET and HTTP POST
- Support for arrays and custom objects
