[dotnetgirl]

Hello EveryOne!

 

I am using 'Webclient.DownloadData' method in my page to allow user to download a file. But it's getting executed without doing anything!

Can anyone tell me what can be the problem?

My Code

 

Hello Robby!

 

i m making a delay in posting my code but i am still struck at the problem. It goes like this :

 

...

string fileName = "setup.msi";

string remUri = Server.Mappath("download\\");

string mypath;

WebClient wb = new WebClient();

mypath = remUri + fileName;

 

wb.DownloadFile(myPath, fileName);

 

...

 

i m getting no exception at DownloadFile call!

 

What's the problem?

 

Thanks.

I am using this code to download a file from the internet, and it works fine:

 

Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient
wc.DownloadFile("http://www.interneturl.com", "C:\Local Path")

 

As simple as that!

Thanks for reply!

 

i am done with the problem, but without using the Webclient class. i m just specifying the full url of my .Msi file that i want for download. On clicking the url , it's opening dialog to open or save the file that is what i wanted to do.
