    <p>I got it to work but I have no idea as to how efficient it is. Is it better to stream from the file system than from the database in terms of connections, efficency, load etc. I could use some pointers on this!</p> <p>I'm using JW Player here, hence "swfobject.js" and "player.swf"</p> <p><em>httpHandler:</em></p> <pre><code>public class ViewFilm : IHttpHandler { public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) { try { // Check if id was given if (context.Request.QueryString["id"] != null) { string movId = context.Request.QueryString["id"]; // Connect to DB and get the item id using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ApplicationServices"].ConnectionString)) using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("GetItem", con)) { cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter sqlParam = cmd.Parameters.Add("@itemId", SqlDbType.Int); sqlParam.Value = movId; con.Open(); using (SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader()) { if (dr.HasRows) { dr.Read(); // Add HTTP header stuff: cache, content type and length context.Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.Public); context.Response.Cache.SetLastModified(DateTime.Now); context.Response.AppendHeader("Content-Type", "video/x-flv"); context.Response.AppendHeader("Content-Length", ((byte[])dr["data"]).Length.ToString()); context.Response.BinaryWrite((byte[])dr["data"]); } } } } } catch (Exception ex) { throw new Exception(ex.ToString()); } } public bool IsReusable { get { return false; } } } </code></pre> <p><em>javascript</em><br> The function adds a player to <code>&lt;div id="video1"&gt;</code> and can be called e.g when a user clicks a button. </p> <pre><code>&lt;script type='text/javascript' src='swfobject.js'&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"&gt; function vid() { var s1 = new SWFObject('player.swf', 'player1', '480', '270', '9'); s1.addParam('allowfullscreen', 'true'); s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess', 'always'); s1.addVariable('file', encodeURIComponent('ViewFilm.ashx?id=10')); s1.addVariable('type', 'video'); s1.write(document.getElementById("video1")); } &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COA few tips on your handler: 1. The `try ... catch` is currently only throwing away information and should be removed since allowing the error to propagate would provide more info. 2. The `using` statement should be used for your SqlConnection, SqlCommand, SqlDataReader instances which ensure everything is always disposed (closed) even if exceptions are thrown. 3. You're currently reading the entire file into memory, this won't scale; in order to scale you could use `SequentialAccess` on the command then repeatedly `GetBytes` from the reader to a buffer and `BinaryWrite` to the response.

    3. COUpdated on point one and two. Sequential access is still a mystery though.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
