My site is currently 90% asp, which has created a huge problem when tryign to find a free news/journal script to put on my site. Do you know any good free news scripts that allow you to do the normal stuff: post news, admin login, upload pics, user comments (optional), keep an archive of all the old stuff past X posts, ect?
I could in theory, write my own script but I do not have that kinda time on my hands either.
I have written a RSS News Fees application for my site, by I want to limit the number of news items to only 5 instead of the 10 that Reuters sends. Here is the main code:
View Replies View RelatedAs the client uploads the December news story, it replaces the November story and adds November to a dropdown menu on the news page.For example, all archived months stories can be accessed from the dropdown menu and the current month is visible on the page.
Hope this makes sense! Can anyone help, or point me in the way of some script I can download?

Everyday of my life the last year has started by searching through a lot websites in order to find the latest news, and then making a link to that news from my webpage. What I have always dreamt about is some kind of automation.
Is it possible to make a script in ASP that searches through a website and gathers info on title, URL and such, and then automatically inserting it into my website (via for instance a SQL database)?
I have made an ASP page that dynamically creates an XML page from articles stored in an Access Database. It works great and i was well pleased with myself.I was then sitting back admiring my own work when i suddenly thought.The page ends in .asp and not .xml.So i downloaded some free feed readers and news readers and they all found the feed with no problem and i thought i was going to be alright then it clicked - What if the "person" who wants to add my feed to their own site for example, has their site written in PHP?
I wrote a little PHP script that dynamically inserts feeds and sure enough, it will not accept a feed URL ending in .asp. It's (of course) fine if it ends in .xml So, (sorry for going on) Im wondering on your thoughts about this and what you would do? How LESS efective do you think an XML feed ending in .asp is?
i want to add this portion to my site.i want to display category of news depending on date.i want to display such news one month back from current date.

View Replies View RelatedThis is my scenario. On the left of the screen, I have a list of news items, which are updated by the user and inserted into a database, and then they are dynamically displayed on screen from the database.
Now what I want is that if a user clicks a hyperlink from the left of the screen on a news item, the relevant text is displayed on the right. What I did up till now was that if I point on a news Item to the left of the screen, I know which item in the recordset it is since I created a counter.

I am using asp to create a form where you can send the news article to a friend, and it actually sends the entire article. The problems the article contains <br>,<b>,<i> tags, and when I send the email it shows up like this Quote:
in the Holy Land: The Ideal and the Real. </b><br>
<br><br><br>
The lecture is co-sponsored by the Center for Middle Eastern Studies at
North Park University,
I discovered the replace function. Replace(body, "<br>", chr(09)). That got rid of all the <br> tags, but there are still <b>, <i> tags in there. Is there a way to do a multiple replace like Replace(body, "<br>",chr(09) & "<b>", Chr(09))? I tried it and it did not work. Is there a way to do that?
I have added a new field in my database for the news items, basically a boolean value (true or false) for the display or hide of a news article. I have simple added to my queries WHERE newsDisplay, and that does the job except now I have one query qhich is actually causing me a small problem, due to the query already having a where clause.
like below:
dbSelectQuery("SELECT * FROM tblNews WHERE newsID ORDER BY newsDate DESC")
So that leaves me a little puzzled as to going about this query which should solve the small issue, I was even thinking is there a way I can use an if operator. Something along the lines of if newsDisplay = true or checked then do something else. Someone must know. I just dont think you can actually use an if statement on a sql query? Any tips would be perfect . PS - The new field I have added is newsDisplay as a yes/no in an access database.
I'm trying to include file if ?news=news by this code but is not working. Code:

I have a news page on a web site that now needs to be seperated in to a number of 'views' (eg. so that each user sees a different set of articles). I would like to stay away from using 20 include files!
I know how to do this with php but this time I don't have the luxury of being in an environment I'm familiar with. I also need to do this without a database, and in the most economical way possible.
can anyone tell me if it is possible to use asp to connect to a news group, such as this?
