Results in descending order

I've got a block of code which sums up time togged for various tasks in a project and returns the total hours logged per project (intMinutesLogged). How do I get my results n descending order?
static async void NotifyEntriesByWorkSpace(Dictionary<string, List<TimeEntry>> dicEntriesByWorkspace, string strChatURL)
{
string strMessage = "";
foreach (var kvpEntry in dicEntriesByWorkspace)
{
var lstTimeEntries = kvpEntry.Value;
string strTitle = "";
var intMinutesLogged = 0;
var intMinutesBillable = 0;
var intMinutesNonBillable = 0;
foreach (var objTimeEntry in lstTimeEntries)
{
if (objTimeEntry.Billable)
{
intMinutesBillable += objTimeEntry.TimeInMinutes;
}
else
{
intMinutesNonBillable += objTimeEntry.TimeInMinutes;
}
}
strTitle = Workspaces.getWorkspaceFromCache(kvpEntry.Key).Title;
//Console.WriteLine(intMinutesLogged + ": " + strTitle + "m");
intMinutesLogged = intMinutesBillable + intMinutesNonBillable;
Console.WriteLine(TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesLogged) + ": " + strTitle + " " + "(Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesBillable) + ";" + " " + "Non-Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesNonBillable) + ")");
strMessage += TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesLogged) + ": " + strTitle + " " + "(Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesBillable) + ";" + " " + "Non-Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesNonBillable) + ")" + "\n";
}
await SendMessage(strChatURL, strMessage);
}
static string TimeLoggedMessage(int intMinutesLogged)
{
return intMinutesLogged / 60 + "h" + " " + intMinutesLogged % 60 + "m";
}

You could use LINQ for this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.linq.enumerable.orderbydescending?view=net-6.0
You could create a simple class or anonymous type to hold the integer values you're summing up (total minutes, billable minutes, non-billable minutes). Then you could populate a collection of this type within the code you shared and afterwards call OrderByDescending on it. You could order based on any of the three integer values.

Ho to set timeout for dataset in C#

when i run this code after 30 second give me error 'time out expire' . error comming exactly after fill dataset . by the way i add connection time out = 0 to my app config but still the problem is the same . so how i can set connection time out for this dataset

how to know whether compatibility is on or off using asp.net(c#)

I have to do if user's browser compatibility is on then need to show message to user that your browser's compatibility is on.
I have searched this a lot on google but yet not found a proper answer.
I have tried below code but HttpContext.Current.Request.UserAgent always contains MSIE 7.0
string isOn = string.Empty;
if (HttpContext.Current.Request.UserAgent.IndexOf("MSIE 7.0") > -1)
{
isOn = "IE8 Compatibility View";`
}
else
{
isOn = "IE8";
}
}

You may try like this
if (Request.Browser.Type.ToUpper().Contains("IE"))
{
if (Request.Browser.MajorVersion < 7)
{
//Show the message here
}
...
}
else if (Request.Browser.Type.Contains("Firefox"))
{
//code to show message
}
else if (Request.Browser.Type.Contains("Chrome"))
{
//code to show message
}
Also check this MSDN which has its own way of detecting the browser
Query the Browser property, which contains an HttpBrowserCapabilities
object. This object gets information from the browser or client device
during an HTTP request, telling your application the type and level of
support the browser or client device offers. The object in turn
exposes information about browser capabilities using strongly typed
properties and a generic name-value dictionary.
private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
System.Web.HttpBrowserCapabilities browser = Request.Browser;
string s = "Browser Capabilities\n"
+ "Type = " + browser.Type + "\n"
+ "Name = " + browser.Browser + "\n"
+ "Version = " + browser.Version + "\n"
+ "Major Version = " + browser.MajorVersion + "\n"
+ "Minor Version = " + browser.MinorVersion + "\n"
+ "Platform = " + browser.Platform + "\n"
+ "Is Beta = " + browser.Beta + "\n"
+ "Is Crawler = " + browser.Crawler + "\n"
+ "Is AOL = " + browser.AOL + "\n"
+ "Is Win16 = " + browser.Win16 + "\n"
+ "Is Win32 = " + browser.Win32 + "\n"
+ "Supports Frames = " + browser.Frames + "\n"
+ "Supports Tables = " + browser.Tables + "\n"
+ "Supports Cookies = " + browser.Cookies + "\n"
+ "Supports VBScript = " + browser.VBScript + "\n"
+ "Supports JavaScript = " +
browser.EcmaScriptVersion.ToString() + "\n"
+ "Supports Java Applets = " + browser.JavaApplets + "\n"
+ "Supports ActiveX Controls = " + browser.ActiveXControls
+ "\n"
+ "Supports JavaScript Version = " +
browser["JavaScriptVersion"] + "\n";
TextBox1.Text = s;
}

ASP.NET C# Form Submission Problems

I have built a form with jqueryui-date picker - basically if the end date is less than or equal to start time it needs to display a message saying it must be greater than the start time before allowing the user to submit the form. Cannot see where i am going wrong.
Code Below on Submit
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DateTime startDate = Convert.ToDateTime(txtStartDate.Text + " " + ddlTime.SelectedValue);
DateTime endDate = Convert.ToDateTime(txtEndDate.Text + " " + ddlTime2.SelectedValue);
if (startDate >= DateTime.Now)
{
if (endDate <= startDate)
{
usrComment.Visible = true;
//usrComment.Text = "Return time needs to be greater than pickup time IF same day";
usrComment.Text = "Date =" + startDate + "Date 2 =" + endDate;
}
else
{
if (Page.IsValid)
{
string EmailServer = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.Server"];
int ServerPort = Int32.Parse(WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.ServerPort"]);
string EmailServerUser = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.UserName"]);
string EmailServerPass = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.Password"]);
string EmailFrom = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.From"]);
string EmailTo = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.To"]);
string EmailToUser = txtEmail.Text;
string EmailSubject = "Quote Form submitted";
****.****.*****.Email m = new ****.****.Helpers.Email(EmailServer, ServerPort, EmailServerUser, EmailServerPass);
StringBuilder html = new StringBuilder();
html.AppendLine("<ul>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblName.Text + ": " + txtName.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblEmail.Text + ": " + txtEmail.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblPhone.Text + ": " + txtPhone.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblVehicleType.Text + ": " + ddlVehicleType.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblPickupDate.Text + ": " + txtStartDate.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + ddlTime.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblReturnDate.Text + ": " + txtEndDate.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + ddlTime2.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("</ul>");
m.SendHTMLEmail(EmailFrom, EmailTo, EmailSubject, html.ToString());
//Response.Redirect("/contact-us/quote-form-submitted.aspx");
}
usrComment.Text = "SUBMIT IT NOW!!!!!";
}
}
}
jQuery for the date picker
$(function () {
function getDiff() {
var from = $(".start").val();
var till = $(".fin").val();
var c = from.split("/");
beg = new Date(c[2], c[1] - 1, c[0]);
var d = till.split("/");
en = new Date(d[2], d[1] - 1, d[0]);
var rest = (en - beg) / 86400000;
var txt = rest == 0 ? "" : rest + " days"
$("#res").text(txt);
}
$(".start").datepicker({
changeMonth: false,
changeYear: false,
showAnim: "fadeIn",
gotoCurrent: true,
minDate: 0, //change this to +3 to start 3 days from now
dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy",
onSelect: function (dateText, inst) {
$(".fin").val(dateText);
$(".fin").datepicker("option", "minDate", dateText);
getDiff();
}
});
$(".fin").datepicker({
dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy",
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
showAnim: "fadeIn",
onSelect: getDiff
});
//Disabling Copy, Paste, Cut
$('.start').bind('paste', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
//alert("You cannot paste text into this textbox!");
window.alert = function () { };
});
$('.fin').bind('paste', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
//alert("You cannot paste text into this textbox!");
window.alert = function () { };
});
});
So if you have a pickup date of 17/09/2013 and pickup time as 08:00 and the same for return date and time it should alert you with the message and if the return date is greater than or equal to start time the return pickup time needs to be greater than 08:00 if that makes sense?

It would be nice to have a useful, constructive comment. It doesn't matter if this is the "right way" to do it. I believe this is what you're trying to do. I've just added an else to the initial if statement to inform the user to choose a Start date later than now and altered the text of the other else statement to inform the user to pick a return date later than the start date.
protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DateTime startDate = Convert.ToDateTime(txtStartDate.Text + " " + ddlTime.SelectedValue);
DateTime endDate = Convert.ToDateTime(txtEndDate.Text + " " + ddlTime2.SelectedValue);
if (startDate >= DateTime.Now)
{
if (endDate <= startDate)
{
usrComment.Visible = true;
usrComment.Text = "Please enter a Return date later than " + startDate;
}
else
{
if (Page.IsValid)
{
string EmailServer = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.Server"];
int ServerPort = Int32.Parse(WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.ServerPort"]);
string EmailServerUser = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.UserName"]);
string EmailServerPass = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.Password"]);
string EmailFrom = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.From"]);
string EmailTo = (WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Email.To"]);
string EmailToUser = txtEmail.Text;
string EmailSubject = "Quote Form submitted";
****.****.*****.Email m = new ****.****.Helpers.Email(EmailServer, ServerPort, EmailServerUser, EmailServerPass);
StringBuilder html = new StringBuilder();
html.AppendLine("<ul>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblName.Text + ": " + txtName.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblEmail.Text + ": " + txtEmail.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblPhone.Text + ": " + txtPhone.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblVehicleType.Text + ": " + ddlVehicleType.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblPickupDate.Text + ": " + txtStartDate.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + ddlTime.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + lblReturnDate.Text + ": " + txtEndDate.Text + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("<li>" + ddlTime2.SelectedValue + "</li>");
html.AppendLine("</ul>");
m.SendHTMLEmail(EmailFrom, EmailTo, EmailSubject, html.ToString());
//Response.Redirect("/contact-us/quote-form-submitted.aspx");
}
usrComment.Text = "SUBMIT IT NOW!!!!!";
}
}
else
{
usrComment.Visible = true;
usrComment.Text = "Please enter a Start date later than " + DateTime.Now;
}
}

I suggest you not to use any kind of custom function.
JquerUI-date picker have inbuilt functionality for comparing end date with start date.
Please try this

Browser detection

I need to separate IE and FF browsers from others
it's a pseudo-code :
If (CurrentBrowser == IE(6+) or FF(2+) )
{
...
}
else
{
...
}
in protected void Page_Load() event (think so)
if ((Request.Browser.Type == "IE") || (Request.Browser.Type == "FF"))
{
WebMsgBox.Show("1111");
}
no effects :-/ what is IE and FF types?

if (Request.Browser.Type.Contains("Firefox")) // replace with your check
{
...
}
else if (Request.Browser.Type.ToUpper().Contains("IE")) // replace with your check
{
if (Request.Browser.MajorVersion < 7)
{
DoSomething();
}
...
}
else { }

Here's a way you can request info about the browser being used, you can use this to do your if statement
System.Web.HttpBrowserCapabilities browser = Request.Browser;
string s = "Browser Capabilities\n"
+ "Type = " + browser.Type + "\n"
+ "Name = " + browser.Browser + "\n"
+ "Version = " + browser.Version + "\n"
+ "Major Version = " + browser.MajorVersion + "\n"
+ "Minor Version = " + browser.MinorVersion + "\n"
+ "Platform = " + browser.Platform + "\n"
+ "Is Beta = " + browser.Beta + "\n"
+ "Is Crawler = " + browser.Crawler + "\n"
+ "Is AOL = " + browser.AOL + "\n"
+ "Is Win16 = " + browser.Win16 + "\n"
+ "Is Win32 = " + browser.Win32 + "\n"
+ "Supports Frames = " + browser.Frames + "\n"
+ "Supports Tables = " + browser.Tables + "\n"
+ "Supports Cookies = " + browser.Cookies + "\n"
+ "Supports VBScript = " + browser.VBScript + "\n"
+ "Supports JavaScript = " +
browser.EcmaScriptVersion.ToString() + "\n"
+ "Supports Java Applets = " + browser.JavaApplets + "\n"
+ "Supports ActiveX Controls = " + browser.ActiveXControls
+ "\n";
MSDN Article

Try the below code
HttpRequest req = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request
string browserName = req.Browser.Browser;

private void BindDataBInfo()
{
System.Web.HttpBrowserCapabilities browser = Request.Browser;
Literal1.Text = "<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"3\" cellpadding=\"2\">";
foreach (string key in browser.Capabilities.Keys)
{
Literal1.Text += "<tr><td>" + key + "</td><td>" + browser[key] + "</tr>";
}
Literal1.Text += "</table>";
browser = null;
}

I would not advise hacking browser-specific things manually with JS. Either use a javascript library like "prototype" or "jquery", which will handle all the specific issues transparently.
Or use these libs to determine the browser type if you really must.
Also see Browser & version in prototype library?

For browser compatibility you can use this code. This method returns browser name and version :
private string GetBrowserNameWithVersion
{
var userAgent = Request.UserAgent;
var browserWithVersion = "";
if (userAgent.IndexOf("Edge") > -1)
{
//Edge
browserWithVersion = "Edge Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "Edge/" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("Chrome") > -1)
{
//Chrome
browserWithVersion = "Chrome Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "Chrome/" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("Safari") > -1)
{
//Safari
browserWithVersion = "Safari Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "Safari/" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("Firefox") > -1)
{
//Firefox
browserWithVersion = "Firefox Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "Firefox/" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("rv") > -1)
{
//IE11
browserWithVersion = "Internet Explorer Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "rv:" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("MSIE") > -1)
{
//IE6-10
browserWithVersion = "Internet Explorer Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "MSIE" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
else if (userAgent.IndexOf("Other") > -1)
{
//Other
browserWithVersion = "Other Browser Version : " + userAgent.Split(new string[] { "Other" }, StringSplitOptions.None)[1].Split('.')[0];
}
return browserWithVersion;
}

I tried and found the solution for the same
public static string GetBrowserDetails()
{
string BrowserDetails = HttpContext.Current.Request.Browser.Browser + " - " + HttpContext.Current.Request.Browser.Version + "; Operating System : " + HttpContext.Current.Request.Browser.Platform;
return BrowserDetails;
}
OUTPUT :
Chrome - 88.0; Operating System : WinNT

use from
Request.Browser
