I was reading up on ASP for a report and it talked about scripting languages. It also talked about using VBScript or Javascript as a scripting language? What exaclty is a scripting language and why do you have to use it?
View RepliesWe have a few English websites running on a single server and are in the process of adding a Spanish website to the same server. I am trying to determine how one would set the language for a particular website. For example, instead of ASP generating a date like "Monday, July 19, 2004" .

I've been fighting this for a couple of weeks:
My ASP/Access app'n uses UTF-8 data in mixed languages/scripts successfully. That is, it takes input, stores and retrieves stuff OK browser-wise. The app also writes an RTF file and downloads that to the client (for display by Word) fine, but ONLY English; Cyrillic and the CJK group gets the trash display - and it's not a font pblm, cuz the browser display is good.
I've tried a number of charset directives in the RTF-writer, including CP-1251, UTF-8, Unicode, etc. None works. I don't know whether I need an explicit code-set translator or not, and am working with ChilKat's Charset product without any improvement so far.
I am now creating a website which have 3 languages (English, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese). The server has installed English version Window 2000 (Server Version, Default Codepage is Traditional Chinese) and MSSQL 2000 (English). I have created a database which use the codepage "chinese_PRC".
However, when I created an testing asp pages ( 1 textbox and it will insert the content into the table), it cannot store the chars in correct coding. I would like to know whether asp or MSSQL has something wrong in my setting?
Just started learning ASP, seems like lots of people use VBScript to program with. Though, I have spent the last year learning Java. Just wondering if I can use this to program with? along with its API's ?
Also, is it worth while to learn VBScript ? Is it industry standard or needed? Im guessing it is from the way its the language used in most ASP books. Any insight would be great.
This is a first for me...so all help much appreciated.
I am trying to create a survey form which retrieves all its questions form
an ACCESS database.. (I know ACCESS isn't the best option, it just not my
call).
This database is to be multi lingual and my current survey is to be in THAI...
So in creating the survey, I copy the thai text into the ACCESS table from a
WORD document and all looks good. ACCESS seems to understand the THAI.
When I retrieve these Questions from the Database, loading them into a
recordset however, I get '????'s' in the output instead of the thai text .
I have set the charset of the HTML document as charset=TIS-620..
Can anyone tell me what i am missing? What needs to be done to display thai text in my ASP App?
I have an ASP page that I want to support multiple languages. If I set the
<%@ Language=VBScript CodePage=65001%>
and adds a
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
meta tag it seems to work OK. Now instead of setting the codepage in every
page I tried adding a global.asa (Session_onStart) file and add
session.codepage=65001 and also tried to add response.charset="utf-8" (I was
not allowed to set <%@ Language=VBScript CodePage=65001%> inside
global.asa). This does not seems to work though.
Is it possible to set a codepage in some event in a global.asa to make it
global for the entire application? Is it possible to add a directive in
global.asa that works like setting a <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=utf-8">. If this is possible I don't have to
recomplie my business logic that creates the html.
how ASP (not ASP.Net) to do the following things:
1) Get real-time information from other web site such as tracking via
Fed-Ex;
2) Real-time credit card charging via a payment gateway such as WorldPay;
3) How to support multiple languages.
Ive done quite a few sites now that involve different languages using different strategies and I would like to hear some different opinions on which is the most efficient.
The previous sites with languages that I have done have not been majorly big or would involve vast amounts of traffic so using included language file have been ok. I am about to do a site in 4 - 6 different languages that will have quite a lot of traffic. I have also used application variables in some cases but not sure if that is the best way.
So if anyone has any ideas on a better way and also one that is easy on server resources I'd love to hear them (and maybe a link to some code would be koool)..
I want to create some pages using .net, and have others using regular asp with vb. Just wondering? I know you can have Java within the same pages, but didn't know if using asp, and then wanted to do some .net things if the site would have problems.

View Replies View RelatedI've got a freebie hosting mirror of my production personal website
(sounds kinda grandiose, doesn't it?) at http://journeys.webhostme.com/.
At the production website I was using Scripting.FileSystemObject to get
the date that the file was last modified and to read/write a counter
text file for the number of hits that the whole site had. The freebie
has a kind of half-ass*d FileSystemObject, but it has no GetFile method.
Is there any way I can accomplish the same things without using the
FileSystemObject, or by using the crippled one?
This ASP script below is sitting on a Windows 2000 IIS Server Box and the
fldr was pointing to Bradford2 emp which was a Windows 2000 server and
worked great, now I changed the fldr to point to Bradford7 emp which is a

FolderExists(fldr) no longer works. The directory is there and all the
permissions are the same from Bradford2 to Bradford7.

' Folder Not Found

I have a form who's action is an ASP page used to verify the form data. If the data passes, it re-directs to a cgi script. Otherwise, it redirects back to the form page and shows the appropriate error messages. The problem, however, is that the data is lost once it goes thru the validation page. It doesn't get sent on to the cgi script, and it doesn't get sent back to the form page if the data validation fails.
What I need to know is how I can pass the values that were entered on to the cgi script or back to the form page after validation. Or, better yet, how to do the validation on the form page itself, and only proceeding to the cgi script (the form's action) if validation passes.

Does anyone know if the ASP scripting technology has a support lifecycle at
Microsoft? Is there any information on if/when ASP as an application platform
will no longer be supported by Microsoft? I have a customer that wants to

will still provide support (updates, security patches...) for the ASP
technology it is built on.
I use the RemoteScripting with the rsproxy.class within my asp pages.

View Replies View RelatedI have a Web application that uses Remote Scripting to provide dynamic data to a web page.I am testing the application in Internet Explorer 6 SP1 running on Windows XP Professional.
When I use the Microsoft JVM,the application works without any problems.However, as a result of future withdrawal of support of the Microsoft JVM as a result of the settlement with Sun, I need to ensure that the application works okay with the Sun Java plug-in for Internet Explorer.
This component is no longer available,and clicking on the OK button only reiterates this message. When I click on the Cancel button instead, the Remote Scripting functionality fails to work.Is it possible for Remote Scripting to be configured to work with an alternative JVM, such as the Sun Java Plug-In, or is it entirely dependent on the Microsoft version?
I have written this code in ASP
Dim oFSO
Dim oTempFolder
Set oFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oTempFolder = oFSO.GetSpecialFolder(TemporaryFolder)

Response.Write "<br>Temporary Folder Path is " & oTempFolder.Path
It hangs forever on the line

I've some problems with "Scripting.FileSystemObject" object. If I try to create a new text file with the function myfile.CreateTextFile I have two differents result:

This page, http://pjshimmer.tripod.com/movies3.html, contains info of my movie collection. I have the title and year in one table cell, as in Lord of the Rings (2001). I intend to put all the info in an Access database, but I would like to have separate fields for Title and Year.

1. Find open parenthesis "(" in field -Table-
2. select everything after "("
3. move the selection to the new field -Year-
I'm trying to use the Scripting.Dictionary. However the item I'm adding to the dictionary is an array. An example is

objD.item("Key1")(1) to objD.item("Key1")(5)

The server can't run the ASP file but writes HTTP internal server error (in danish). Is it possible, that the server does not support

In other cases the server gives me an ASP error report (line xx in file yy and so on). Here it only says HTTP 500 (not 404). Even if I call the ASP directly. Code:
I have a form where I want to be able to validate a field against a DB
*before* the form has been submitted.
After doing a bit of homework, it seems there are two general approaches:
1) Remote Scripting [using RSExecute/RSGetASPObject]
2) Using XMLHTTP/XMLDOM objects
I have no experience with either, so I though I'd see what my peers are
using.
