suggest multi-file upload components?

I'm looking for some options for implementing a file uploading tool. The
'catch' is that it's been requested that we accomodate files from 2 to 100mb
in size, and, ideally, the ability to upload up to 20 files at a time.

I've been looking around a bit and it seems as if element-it.com's products
will work:

http://www.element-it.com/
They appear to have a file upload script that gets around some of the large
file issues that the default asp.net file upload classes have in addition to
a nice Flash-based component that allows one to browser to multiple files at
once.

Has anyone used this product? comments? Suggestions for other components to
look at?

If you're uploading such large files, have you considered using FTP rather
than HTTP uploads?

That's what they have now. It's a printer that accepts files via FTP.

However, they want to have a 'web based interface' for ease of use with
their customers

Hi,
If you want a ready component then Jupload is very good for your
requirement.

Thanks,

Suggestion on shopping cart and sessions

Hi,
I am working on implementing a shopping cart. I am planning to storethe shopping cart items in a database table. A shoppingcartid will beused to distinguish between different shopping carts. Theshoppingcartid for members will be their userid, for others it will bea guid. I am planning to store the shoppingcartid in a sessionvariable. We don't have a webfarm, just one server machine. I amthinking of using session with InProc mode.
But I have read many posts complaining of expired sessions, sessiontimeouts, session_end not fired etc. Is it ok to use sessions to storethe cartid or is there any better solution?
Thanks.

If your serious and in a hurry, SQL Server is the easy way. the other options are to write your own or use another server.

There is no session end when running SQL Server session

You said 'to write your own'. Can you please ecplain more on that. Thanks.

Sadly, time does not permit, but have a look at this - it should help

Thanks.
Can any one tell me is there any major downside of using cookies tostore the cartid instead of sessions? I think there will be moreabondoned carts than when using sessions. But I am not concerned aboutthat.
I think may be you could use a temp table to store your data,you can delete the expired data automaticlly

hello.

or maybe you should consider taking a look at profiles.

I am not using ASP.Net 2.0 I cannot use profiles.

Suggestions for implementing personalization

I'm creating an e-commerce site and would like users to be able to freely
navigate the pages without signing in. However, authorization and
authentication is required to purchase products.
Currently I am using session variables to monitor if the user is logged in
or not. I have inherited a base page from the page class to handle the chec
k
for this in every page.
Forms authentication seems to forceful for this situation where I would like
to remain 'hands-off' until the user decides to login.
Suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you."examnotes" <NathanV@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in

What you probably want is to implement roles based authentication.
