IE9 and Safari Compatibility

PROJECT DESCRIPTION 

The RadClientExportManager relies on the File API for exporting. Since IE9 and Safari browsers do not support File API, in order to export content, the browser needs to make a request to the server and receive back the data. This functionality is achieved by assigning an exporting service to the RadClientExportManager ProxyURL.

The attached sample uses this approach to export the content of an HTML div element to a PDF file.

Dmitar,

Can you provide Sample Code Using Webservice instead of WCF service,

I tried creating the Service.asmx and created the Export method but no luck.

Below is the WebMethod with Modified Code,

         [WebMethod]
        public Stream Export(Stream input)
        {
            StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(input);
            string s = sr.ReadToEnd();
            sr.Dispose();
            NameValueCollection qs = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(s);
            string fileName = qs["fileName"];
            string base64 = qs["base64"];
            string contentType = qs["contentType"];

            byte[] data = Convert.FromBase64String(base64);

            MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(data);
            HttpContext.Current.Response.ContentType = contentType;
            stream.Position = 0;
            return stream;
        }

Below is the change in the ASPX Page,

        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            var relativePath = "~/service.asmx/export?file";

            RadClientExportManager1.PdfSettings.ProxyURL = ResolveUrl(relativePath);
            RadClientExportManager1.PdfSettings.Author = "Telerik ASP.NET AJAX";
        }

 Let me know if I need to make any other changes,

Thanks in Advance

Hi Khadeer,

You may find a solution which does not use WCF or WebAPI in the following forum post, dealing with the same IE9 and Safari Compatibility topic. Please check if it is OK for your scenario.

Hey Dimitar,

Thanks Lot it worked  :)

Also I need to export the data which is binded to the chart in Excel.

Currently I'm exporting the Dataset into an Excel.

 Is there any other way to export in Excel.

 Regard

Hi Khadeer,

I'm glad that the forum solution worked for you.

Since your latest question is not related to the main topic of this code library, I would suggest you to open a new support ticket/forum thread for it. Thus, threads would be kept short and concise, providing better support for the community.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Regards,
Dimitar
