Open a MS document in html place holder

[Uma]

Hi,

Do we open a document (doc, pdf) within this html place holder?

Hi Uma ,

Yes - the htmlplaceholder act like you have an embedded browser within your application, so just point to the correct url and it will render it. Use the SourceUrl property.

Hi,
I have a string that contains tab-delimted info.
I want to assign this string to the HTMLSource property of the html place holder. This works fine.

My question is : How do I add the excel headers to the html document ? Because now the contents of the string is shown, but it isn't loaded in Excel in the browser.

Thanks,
Nicolas

Solved it by using the method (using webclient) that is described in the export-function of RadGridView.

There are actually lots of persons on the MS Silverlight forum with this problem. And the solution is for grabs at the Telerik examples :-) Great job guys !

     We plan to use the RadHtmlPlaceholder to open MS files(.doc .xls .txt), the files be stored in the IsolateStorage which be added by the OpenFileDialog.  But now we got a problem, we can not get the absolution path (like C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\LocalLow\Microsoft\Silverlight\is\vsugfyy4.1kn\ubptuc5h.hwp\1\s\t0hwbg3uj1cfdr2h3nxlssrk5zsit1abhjcllnjyahjef2nlobaaafca\f) of MS File in the IsolateStorage to set the property  SourceUri of RadHtmlPlaceholder . How can i to do?  thanks.

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for contacting us. Why do you need the full path to the file? Isn't it working properly if you just give the name of file as SourceUri to RadHtmlPlaceholder? Also if you have a project reproducing the issue, could you please send it to us. This way we will be better able to assist you.

Hi Kiril,
   I am so sorry , I reply so late.
   I have some questions:
   1.Can Html place holder open the local MS document? if it can, where the files be stored?  and how to set the SOURCEURI property?
   2. if  MS document be stored on the server ， we can user the SOURCEURI property to open the a MS doucment. Yes, it works fine. But I want to open the local MS document, the application should upload the file to the server, then return the URL to the Html place holder to open it . it is not a good idea. do you think so?
    3. I try to open the local MS doument,(use the absolute address of Isolate storage which gain by debugging the program) the appliation should in the  windowless mode, there is another problem that we can not input other language like chinese or Japanese on the textbox . I don't know why.
    It is an important problem in our project. hope your reply.
thanks
Jeremy,

HI
   Isn't it working properly if you just give the name of file as SourceUri to RadHtmlPlaceholder?   How the RadHtmlPlaceholder to find the file according to the name of the file.  the file be stored in local storage system. may be disk D or isolate storage.

Hi  
   can RadHtmlplaceHolder accept   stream ， then display it.? it is my Envisaged. 　～～

[Kiril Stanoev]

Hi NS,

Currently, RadHtmlPlaceholder does not take stream. My suggestion is to use RadHtmlPlaceholder and RadUpload to achieve the functionality you're looking for.

Hi,
   It is so bad to upload more than 100 MB file to the server. Do you have different way to open MS document.?
Best Regards

Hello jeremy,

You can use our RadRichTextBox control which supports MS Word files.
