To Embed PDF files in HTML Page You can use below snippet of code, It works in most browser versions (Chrome, Firefox, IE,... ).

if it is not supported, it shows the message "The PDF cannot be displayed."

<div id="pdf"> <object width="900" height="1000" type="application/pdf" data="/filepath/filename.pdf?#zoom=85&scrollbar=0&toolbar=0&navpanes=0" id="pdf_content"> <p>The PDF cannot be displayed. <a href="/filepath/filename.pdf" target="_top">download</a>.</p> </object> </div>

How to bind LINQ data to DataGrid

Let's assume we have a Web Service which will return the results as an object for IN and OUT data records.

The following will explain how to use LINQ to query and then bind the results to the asp:DataGrid

C# code:

//query to get currunt month data ordered by LOCAL_TIME then TYPE

 var thisMonthData = eData.Contents

.OrderByDescending(o => o.LOCAL_TIME)

.OrderByDescending(o2 => o2.TYPE)

.Where(m => m.DATE.Substring(0, 6)

== DateTime.Today.ToString("yyyyMM", arCulture));

 

//Bind Data

eDataGrid.DataSource = thisMonthData;

eDataGrid.DataBind();

 

//query to get currunt month data ordered by LOCAL_TIME for TYPE=IN

var thisMonthDataIn = eData.Contents

.OrderByDescending(o => o.LOCAL_TIME)

.Where(r => r.TYPE == "IN")

.Where(m => m.DATE.Substring(0, 6) == DateTime.Today.ToString("yyyyMM", arCulture));

 

//Bind Data

eINDataGrid.DataSource = thisMonthDataIn;

eINDataGrid.DataBind();

 

//query to get currunt month data ordered by LOCAL_TIME for TYPE=OUT

var thisMonthDataOut = eData.Contents

.OrderByDescending(o => o.LOCAL_TIME)

.Where(r => r.TYPE == "OUT")

.Where(m => m.DATE.Substring(0, 6) == DateTime.Today.ToString("yyyyMM", arCulture));

 

//Bind Data

eOUTDataGrid.DataSource = thisMonthDataOut;

eOUTDataGrid.DataBind();

 

Markup:

                     

<asp:DataGrid CssClass="gvTbl" ID="eINDataGrid" runat="server"  AutoGenerateColumns="true">

<HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />

<ItemStyle BackColor="#DAF1F2" HorizontalAlign="Right" />

<AlternatingItemStyle BackColor="#ECE9EA" />

<Columns>

</Columns>

</asp:DataGrid>

Passing url parameters to webpart in SharePoint

To pass the URL parameters to a webpart page in SharePoint, we can't use the "Page Viewer" webpart because it does not allow us to use the parameters in the URL.

So we use teh "Content Editor" webpart since it allows us to embed javascript code in it. We can then use an "iframe" with a generated URL from a JavaScript with URL parameters from the webpart page's URL.

First, create a webpart page, then insert a content editor webpart in it with the following code:

<script type="text/javascript">

    function getQueryStringRegExp(name) {

        var reg = new RegExp("(^|\\?|&)"

+ name + "=([^&]*)(\\s|&|$)", "i");

        if (reg.test(location.href))

return unescape(RegExp.$2.replace(/\+/g, " "));

        return "";

    }

    document.write("<iframe src='http://www.sitename.com/default.aspx?param1="+ getQueryStringRegExp('param1') + "' width=100% height=100%></iframe>");

</script>

The function getQueryStringRegExp is used to retrieve the parameter value from the page url.
