I need to save a file from iPhone/iPad to SharePoint site. When I tried to upload content with the same name of one document that actually there, it succeeds and even file size is shown as that of the new one. But content remains as the initial file as itself.
Do anyone have a solution for this?. Please let me know if something is there.

When creating a pdf document (the primary purpose of the app), it will currently list "Chromium" as the content creator in MacOS's finder. This string's also evident in the pdf binary itself.
Is there a way to change this to a custom value from within the Electron API? The documentation for printtopdf() says nothing about this.
The documentation doesn't seem to mention anything useful indeed. This may not have anything to do with Electron itself.
I've printed-to-pdf this very page:
Then as you can see "Chrome" is the content creator of this document. (In Electron this would be "Chromium" as you noticed.)
Your best bet might be to change the PDF metadata after the file has been saved on the file system. See this post.
I have used paperclip to allow me to upload files to a rails application. Everything works and the file is uploaded, but instead of seeing a link to the actual file itself I see the location of it within the systems folder of the rails project.
I'm guessing its either a routing issue or I need to create a link to the file in question. However, I would like to hide the location of the file itself, and only see the link displayed.
I would be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction here.
You want to hide the actual path of the file in the server, right?
You can achieve that using send_file (http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/DataStreaming.html#method-i-send_file) in a normal controller.
You will still need to do something to protect the download using the real path.
In my app I want users to be able to associate a file(s) they have on their desktop/DropBox with a specific item, but I don't want/need them to be able to actually attach the file...I just want to get the file name and location and save that in my database. Then when I display the item I'll hyperlink to the location captured. Can someone point me to an example(s) of how to accomplish this? I looked at the JQuery File Upload (http://blueimp.github.com/jQuery-File-Upload/) but as I mentioned don't actually need to upload the file...so this should be something super easy.
Thanks for your time and assistance.
You can try and get value of file input, but you'll fail.
See this jsfiddle.
All I'm getting is the fake path
C:\fakepath\134.png
And there's certainly no C:\ drive on Mac OSX. :)
I guess, this is because of security restrictions. You shouldn't know (or care) about user's filesystem in a web app.
I'm building a Reporting web application right now with MVC3 and I've come up to a couple problems.
My goal is to have it able to generate and view Crystal Reports, SSRS reports, and Excel documents.
Right now I'm working on the Excel segment and I'm running into more trouble than I thought I would. First off, when I link directly to the file, it either opens inside the browser or it downloads it from the server and if the user makes changes it doesn't actually save it to the true file on the server.
I've tried both linking to the file directly using Razor and a ViewModel with the path to the document as well as directing it to an action that returned a File.
I've also tried linking it to a shortcut to the actual file thinking that if I could open the shortcut it would open the file the way I wanted it to and unfortunately it didn't really open at all.
The users already have access to the files on the server through a network drive, so as of right now they can go into the server, open the excel document, edit and save it no problem. I want to duplicate this effect through a link. The program already has a file browser built, so I can browse between the files and make links to the reports.
Thanks in advance!
Since they are apparently on a network drive, you can just link to the files directly, relative to the user?
For example: a link to file://///SERVERNAME/folder/
I tested it between two computers on the network, and that seems to work. However, you still get a popup asking that you want to do with the file, open or save. (both in firefox and IE)
Note: Yes, that many slashes seem necessary, lol
I need to change the folder icon in a sharpoint document library view.
The catch is, the folder icon is dependent upon various folder properties. So, I need a specific icon for specific folders (I just don't want to change the folder icon across the board).
My initial thoughts were, that if I could find the page (xml or aspx) that sharepoint uses to generate the img tag, I would modify the source to be something like:
src="/GetFolderIcon.aspx?fn={FolderNameHere}"
Where {FolderNameHere} is the actual folder name. Then, in GetFolderIcon.aspx, I would look up the various folder properties, and determine which .gif or .jpeg I needed to send back to the browser.
The problem is, I don't know where that page is located, or what it's even called.
I don't know if that's the correct approach or not, but that's my current thoughts.
Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks!
here is a tutoral on something very similar.
