I have built a small cms driven website using asp and access database. There is nothing special about it, it has about 5 tables each containing unique data.
I want to add a search field on all pages which will search the entire database and present the results.
I have been searching for hours now and cant find a script that suits my needs. Can anyone point me in the right direction or reccomend a script?
I would like to get asp code for searching database.I have data in Ms Access. I want to search by catagories. A dropdown list to choose to narrowdown search. If keyword found, create a hyperlink of the location so that easy to view.
I have an Access database that I created a query in. The query brings fields from related tables and prompts users to perform a search based on 3 criterias.
NOTE: the prompts can be bypassed by just leaving it blank and selecting OK. So in other words, the user does not need to fill in each prompt for the search to work, it just give them a more narrowed down search if they fill more in...
Now for the ASP part... I want to create an ASP page where the use selects from 3 drop downs. These drop downs are named the same as the field names in my query. How do I get this to work??
I have two ASP pages. One to make a booking and the other one to search for bookings in Access 2K db.
The booking number is text+numbers: BLAH1234. Here is the problem. The search does not work, no errors - it returns an empty page, with BLAH1234 (field is Text) but works with just 1234 (field is Number).
I need help to figure out how to be able to search for BLAH1234 . In other words how do I convert BLAH1234 into Test string or Number string? I am an amature so any critisism and pointers are welcome.
my entire website is driven by an Access database. I've successfully setup a search function - which works beautifully until I include an Access table where at least one of the searched fields is empty.
I have manually created a SQL query using UNION in my database: "searchSQL".
I assume I adjust my SQL statement on my ASP page to ignore blanks? Eg: "WHERE title<>"" and LIKE..." but I'm obvsiouly using incorrect syntax.
How do I say - "only if FIELD is NOT BLANK check if LIKE"; or should I be doing this within the Access SQL statement? Code:
how do you search all the tables in an access db with different field names? i would like to place a textfield and a dropdown of the different tables of the db. i cant figure it out. im using asp and dreamweaver.
I have a neat database running and im trying to place a search engine thro it. I have quite a few tables, BUT i can only get the query in one table. ie Code:
here's what i want to do. from an asp page, perform a search on a table in access. i have used sql code in the asp page itself, but i'd rather execute a query in access. i have success in running any query (basic SELECT, SELECT with conditions _other_ than LIKE, etc..) for some reason, when i execute the query below from the asp page, i get no results.
the search.asp page just has a text box in a form that submits the srchBOX field to the results.asp page.
here's the asp code from the results.asp page: Code:
I have been thinking about this wee problem for a while now, and usually I figure out what I need to do, but in this case I'm drawing a blank And the most annoying thing is that I don't think it should be that hard! I use this code to search a database: Code:
I have one page that has a few categories on it. When the person clicks on one of the categories it sends the querystring to the next page. That page takes the query string, searches the database and only replies with found results. Thats what I'm trying to setup, I think I'm very close.
I know the request.querystring is being sent properly and receieved properly, because I also have it's name displayed on the next page and that works fine. I know my connection to the database is okay, becasue if I just set it to display the entire database that will display fine.
It's when I try to use the Request.QueryString that was sent to search the database - it returns like it can never find anything. The page displays, no asp or coding errors - just no information.
The database Column I'm trying to have it search is called "Classification". I think that's all the info.. if I'm missing something you need to know let me know. Code:
Does any one know of any good asp database search scripts. What I'm looking for it to search the database on different criteria or phrases. Eg Kane 400 Boiler.
The user could put in kane 400 and it would pick it up, basically something that you don't have to put in the search how it appears in the database, I have worked on this and works fine if you put the exact phrase in, or one work but if i put in kane 400 it does not work. Also if I put % it lists the whole database, this database will hold 10000 > products so want it not to be to heavy etc.
I'm trying to use information that a user enters into an HTML form to search a database. For example, if a user clicks on a check box stating their interests are 'holidays' then this information needs to be used to search the database for entries that match, ie the entry has a category that states it is about holidays.
The entries in the database are linked to pictures that will then be loaded onto a website.
I'm having a problem with a simple search. I have a telephone directory where people can search by first or last name. This works great but when someone tries to search for a name with an ' in it you get an error.
I've created a search bar on my site to search a database with job information. I dont know what i am doing wrong, i just want what the user types in to display after pressing search. I thought all i would need is Code:
I am looking for an ASP script that let me to serach all database contents with only one textfield in search page. eg: I have a database with five columns for lessons: Mat, physics, geography, history and sport. Each field have numbers 1 thr 5. I want to search only those students have number eg:3. with entering the number in textfield in serach page. I have no problem in result page.
I would like my ASP-based site to have a search box to bring up a list of relevant pages according to user-defined search criteria.
Q: Do I need to have a d/b like SQL Server 7 at the back end to process and match the search string? Or can I do w/out a d/b somehow and run a search, and somehow still bring up the same results?
If a d/b isn't necc, pls. advise on webpages where I can find such ASP-search codes.... TQ!!
I have a page that uses the data from the previous pages form to search the data in the database and dispaly any matching results.
On doing so i get this error:
Error Type: Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A03F9) Expected 'Then' /IT/searchresults.asp, line 20, column 15 If Request.Form"(Typesearch") = "computer_name" Then
Code: Select * From groups Where groupName LIKE '%bli%' AND cusType LIKE 'CUST%' or
Code: Select * From groups Where InStr(groupName,'li')>0 AND InStr(cusType,'CUST')=1 Right now I'm using and Access database but plan to upsize to a MSSQL if that makes any difference. Are there any advantages or disadvantages to either technique?
I have been searching for a way to search a database based on keywords. All I can seem to find is google searches. All I want to search is my own database.The db contains inventory for a friends store. As list is long he would like to be able to search an item based on item name, supplier, or type.
Im looking for a means to allow the search criteria provided by a user to be checked against fields in more than one recordset table in a ms access database.
Is there a means within asp to check multiple tables at the same time using one set of criteria? So far the only solutions i've seen to this includes the usage of a list box which dictates which recordset is opened. I would like to avoid this.
I am looking for a asp script, that will do an OR search on keywords in two differant columns in an MySQL database. for example if someone searches for joe bloggs I want to bring back all records that have either of the words joe or bloggs in column one or column two.
I have found a script that does exactly what I want but it will only search one column of a database whereas i would want it to search two columns. http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/052799-1.shtml
how to modify this code or point me in the direction of some other code that will do the same job.
I want to move my only window shosted client to linux. The site they have access a Microsoft Access database with the below code but i can't get it to work under Linux.
I have an ASP page needs to access a remote MS Access2000 database, I got error "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'F:Collect.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. ".
The 'F:' is a mapped drive from remote machine where the access database loactes. If I copy the database back to local box, no problem.
I'm looking to make an online multiplayer game which will utilize Access Database... basically I require thousands of people writing and reading from the same database... I was wondering if this is possible for that... or is mdb file restricted to 1 person at a time...
If it is limited what would you suggest as the best way to control an interactive online environment? .txt files possibly?
Does anyone know where I can find a free simple script to create a search engine using Access Database backend and will allow the user to type in a word (not a using drop down list) and it will search the table.
I have a combo box in an ASP page, there are 7 lists total in the combo box, there is another text box on the page and a search button. I want the users to select an item from the combo box and type a keyword and click search.
The combo item and keyword will be used as an criteria to query a SQL database. I'm familiar with SQL connection and running queries but how do I take the criteria and pass on further.
i am doing a database search project. and i would like to know how do i get exact keyword searched from the database. for e.g. if the user enters keyword as "lan" to be searched it should return only records that contain exact keyword "lan" and should not return "plan" and other words like that.
