ASP Text Formatting

I am new here and need some help in formating text stream coming out of MySQL database. Following is the row I have in MySql database.....

"one - two
Three four
five"

My asp code reads this string as...

"one - tow Three four five"

For some reason I am losing all the carriage returns and line feed. Asp puts the whole string in one line. Is there any asp function that I can use to keep my original text formating that I have in the database? Code:

Text Formatting

I have been having problems with an ASP page that extracts a newsletter from an Access DB. The record in the database has the proper format, meaning that after a paragraph, you can see that the enter key was pressed twice.

Problem is that when the newsletter is shown on the internet, all of the paragraphs have been run together. I don't know why this is happening.

Formatting Text

I am currently using a combination of classic ASP and Access for coming up with a ride reports system for my cycling club - I have a control panel on the website which allows admin members to update the database via forms boxes (especially multi-line boxes)

However, the only problem I am having is that when in the control panel when I include text (with line spaces), and submit this to my Access database (in a Memo field), the output doesn't include any paragraphing or line spaces and it comes out in one unwieldy block of text. way that I can include paragraph formatting within this method?

MS Access/ASP Text Formatting

I made a website using ASP and MS Access in the back-end. One of the functions of the website is to post some news by using a web based form. Copy, paste, submit and voila! It works fine, However, Since it is mainly text that is pasted on the form, I would like to be able to keep the original formatting of the text and not to have it displayed, as is now, all together without spaces. Can anyone tell me how to achieve that wonderfull thing. Is it an Access problem or an ASP thing?

Formatting Of Text Inputed For Database

As i write this post i have a variety of options to format my post such as bold, changing font, font colour, font size, putting text into paragraphs etc.

I am able to then preview all of this by clicking on "Preview Post". When i click on "Submit New Thread", my post gets stored inside a database (fully intact with paragraphs.)

I would very much appreciate anyone that can point me to script (prefferably ASP and javascript) to be able to do all of this including storing all the text fully intact (paragraphs) inside an access 2000 database.

XML Formatting

I’m having an issue saving/reading an xml file.The source of this file is a the parameter of an object. Through the UI the user can change the value (xml string) of this parameter.

The problem is that the parameter needs the xml with > , < , and " instead of the > , < , " chars. However when I save it, the xml dom and even the fso save it with the actual xml chars. Other than a literal search, is there an easy way to convert the file to have the special chars?

Report Formatting

I have users typing in information into a text box. Sometimes this information can be lengthy and contain simple formatting such as spacess between lines and line numbering. For example:

1. List item number one

2. List item number two

I then have a report page that prints out this information. Unfortunately, the line spacing doesn't show up in the report. It's just all jumbled together. I'm just using <%= Notes %> to show the db field. Is there a way that I can show the formatting that was originally entered or do I need to use some kind of word processor like I am using to type this post?

Time Formatting In ASP

I'm developing in ASP/VBScript using DreamweaberMX, w/ an Access 2000 DB as the
data source. The source of the data is coming from a third party, which I get as
a CSV and import into the database, updating it weekly.

Since I have no control over how the data is collected, I'm not sure how to fix
this problem, but here it is.

This is a database of movies and among the many fields I import is one for the
movie's length, expressed in HH:MM:SS. This comes into the Access DB as a
Date/Time format, which means all the dates, displayed raw in the DB, look like
"12:09:52 AM". Through data formatting, however, displaying it to the client as
HH:MM:SS is no problem. (Display "12:36:00 AM" as military time (00:36:00) tells
me the movie is 0 hrs, 36 minutes, 0 seconds long. Follow?)

But in an update form, which we'll use to correct errors (and there always seem
to be errors in the running times of movies), I can't figure out how to display
it in the HH:MM:SS format in an INPUT field and have it submit without throwing
a data type mismatch error. It seems to want to display as "12:36:00 AM"

Converting the field to a text type is out of the question at this point, so I
know I need to do some type of string manipulation prior to update. However, I'm
lost ...

Any ideas?

E-mail Formatting?

When e-mailing invoices and estimates, is there any way to customize the
presentation of the e-mail beyond changing the message? Specifically,
I'd like to add some html so the receiver can click on a link to pay
online. As it is, I can type the URL in the message, but it appears only
as text to the reader, not a hotlink, which, unfortunately, is quite
vexing to some of my clients.

It would also be nice to add a company logo, etc. to the email body.

On this same subject, is it possible to send the entire invoice/estimate
as HTML rather than an attached PDF? I haven't seen these options
anywhere.

XML DOM And Saving Formatting?

I'm currently doing some work with ASP and XML DOM.

Is there any way when saving XML to get ASP to save it in a formatted way? Similar to PHP's formatOutput setting? At the moment my xml is being appended on line e.g

<test>1</test><test>2</test>
Is there a setting to get ASP to save XML like:

<test>1</test>
<test>2</test>

The XML document I'm working on is fairly large and its proving very difficult to read through the xml at the moment.

Date Formatting

I am trying to display dates in a spreadsheet, but the dates need to be in a
format that will allow them to be sorted in Excel. The datatype in the SQL
Server database is datetime. In this case, I need to display the date only,
not the time. But I don't want to change the datatype in the database
because the time is used in other places.

So what I am doing is pulling it out of the database, then modifying it in
ASP/VBScript by using the datevalue function. This results in values such as
3/31/2006, 4/3/2006, and 4/14/2006. The problem is, the ones with the
single digit date (4/3/2006 in the sample data I just listed) messes up
Excel's sorting capabilities. How can I force the dates to display in a
2-digit date format? It would probably be good to do the same for the month.

Formatting String?

I'm having a problem with the following:

I'm passing a query string from one script to the other via a hidden input.
Right now I'm just response.writing the query string out to make sure the
query is getting there.

The query string will display no problem if the query has no single quotes
( ' ) i.e. returns:
SELECT * from table WHERE int_field = 123 ORDER BY id

But when the query contains quotation marks to handle text it chokes, i.e.
returns:
SELECT * from table WHERE text_field =

when this should be:

SELECT * from table WHERE text_field = 'textvalue' ORDER BY id

I've tried various arguments with the REPLACE function, but can't get it to
work...

Running SQL2000.
