Introduction

I am trying to re-solve the Hit-Counts with the help of an Ad-Rotator used as an Advertisement file using ASP.NET.

Background

The AdRotator control is used to display a sequence of ad images, which when clicked on gives the Hit-Count of the Navigation URL.

The code

Code: ASP.NET

In AdRedirector.aspx.cs

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
	String adName = string.Empty;
	String redirect = string.Empty;
	if (adName == null | redirect == null)
	{
		redirect = "Default.aspx"; 
	}
	adName = Request.QueryString["ad"];
	redirect = Request.QueryString["target"];
	System.Xml.XmlDocument doc = new System.Xml.XmlDocument();
	String docPath = @"~/App_Data/AdResponses.xml";
	doc.Load(Server.MapPath(docPath));
	System.Xml.XmlElement root = doc.DocumentElement;
	System.Xml.XmlNode adNode =root.SelectSingleNode(@"descendant::ad[@adname='" + adName + "']");
	if (adNode != null)
	{
		int ctr =
		int.Parse(adNode.Attributes["hitCount"].Value);
		ctr += 1;
		System.Xml.XmlNode newAdNode = adNode.CloneNode(false);
		newAdNode.Attributes["hitCount"].Value = ctr.ToString();
		root.ReplaceChild(newAdNode, adNode);
		doc.Save(Server.MapPath(docPath));
	}
	Response.Redirect(redirect);
}

In AdRedirector.aspx,

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:XmlDataSource ID="XmlDataSource1" runat="server" DataFile="~/App_Data/Sample.ads">
</asp:XmlDataSource> 
</div>
</form>

Finally moved into forum.

I guess you need to work on your code a bit harder.

Can you please explain the following lines

	String adName = string.Empty;
	String redirect = string.Empty;
	if (adName == null | redirect == null)
	{
		redirect = "Default.aspx"; 
	}
