Problem with SharePoint 2013 and Internet Explorer 11


Nice tip !

bbuhac's avatarSharepoint Thing

So if you are one of few that are using IE11 and SharePoint 2013 you have probably noticed many corruptions and misbehaves in UI. So far I have discovered the following problems:

  • Calendar web part is extremely corrupted
  • You will click Settings > Edit Page, Pages will not enter edit mode.
  • Web Part Properties cannot be modified.

So until we get official CU or SP from SharePoint team, run your sites in compatibility mode.

  1. Click Compatibility View Settings in Settings
  2. Click Add to add the current SharePoint site to your list.

string siteURL,
string documentListName,
string documentListURL,
string documentName,

string folderName,
string invoiceId)
{
using (var clientContext = new ClientContext(siteURL))
{
// Get Document List
var documentsList = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle(documentListName);

// check if folder already exists else create folder

if (!FolderExists(clientContext.Web, documentListName, folderName))
{
var info = new ListItemCreationInformation();
info.UnderlyingObjectType = FileSystemObjectType.Folder;
info.LeafName = folderName.Trim();
var newItem = documentsList.AddItem(info);
newItem["Title"] = folderName;
newItem.Update();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
}

var fileCreationInformation = new FileCreationInformation();

// Assign to content byte[] i.e. documentStream
fileCreationInformation.Content = documentStream;

// Allow owerwrite of document
fileCreationInformation.Overwrite = true;

// Upload URL
fileCreationInformation.Url = siteURL + documentListURL + folderName + "/" + documentName;
var uploadFile = documentsList.RootFolder.Files.Add(fileCreationInformation);

// Update the metadata for a field having name "DocType"
uploadFile.ListItemAllFields["Invoice_x0020_Id"] = invoiceId;

uploadFile.ListItemAllFields.Update();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
}
}


public static bool FolderExists(Web web, string listTitle, string folderUrl)
{
var list = web.Lists.GetByTitle(listTitle);

Extracting Attachment from InfoPath form using C#


The sample code for extracting attachment from submitted InfoPath form

var lstTimeSheet = new List<RelatedTimesheet>();
 foreach (var timeSheet in invoiceFormData.Summary.Timesheet)
 {
 if (timeSheet.Attachment != null)
 {
 var tSheet = new RelatedTimesheet();
 var b = timeSheet.Attachment;
 var nameBufferLen = b[20] * 2;
 var fileNameBufffer = new byte[nameBufferLen];
 for (var i = 0; i < nameBufferLen; i++)
 {
 fileNameBufffer[i] = b[24 + i];
 }

 var charFileName = Encoding.Unicode.GetChars(fileNameBufffer);
 var fileName = new string(charFileName);
 tSheet.FileName = fileName.Substring(0, fileName.Length - 1); 

 var fileContent = new byte[b.Length - (24 + nameBufferLen)];
 for (var i = 0; i < fileContent.Length; i++)
 {
 fileContent[i] = b[24 + nameBufferLen + i];
 }

 tSheet.Attachment = fileContent;
 lstTimeSheet.Add(tSheet);
 }
 }

public class RelatedTimesheet
{
 public string FileName { get; set; }
 public byte[] Attachment { get; set; }
}
