When writing to a file, is there an equivalent to the HTML non-break space character? Using “ “ works okay if there are other characters on the line, but when you want several blank lines in a table, if you use “ “ these blank lines are ignored. Code:

I am creating a directory of suppliers.I have a form that collects data - business name, address1, address2, town, city, county, country, postcode.

My Business Name

When inserting multiple lines into a database asp removes the whitespace so:

This line of my guestbook (visual basic script) - response.write "message: " & Recordset ("message") & "<br><br>" displays access database field "message" in one line in web browser.

View Replies View RelatedI am working with an old line-feed printer text file. There are characters in the first position of each line that tell the printer what to do, i.e. print this line and advance paper, print and do not advance. when processing this text file for conversion to another text file I can't seem to work out the code for merging two lines. For example,
Type: Location: Quantity:
+ 123 London 45000
After processing the line should look like this:
Type: 123 Location: London Quantity: 45000
I understand the concept but have no idea how to actually merge the two lines with code.

View Replies View RelatedWe have an existing ASP app that is doing a very simple form submission to an Access db. So it opens a connection does a write and closes the connection.
The problem is that every other form submission is failing because of an "Unspecified Error" - according to our IIS web server log.
I have 2 things I'd like help with.
1) Writing to a log file:
I'd like to write to a log file (either the web servers or a different one) from the server side code within the ASP app. So, once the code opens the DB connect I would like to know it was a success. Once it writes, I want to see the string its trying to put in, etc...
How would I do this in our ASP/IIS environment?
2) Catch errors:
If I'm opening a db connection to this access db, how can I be sure the connection is a success? does a value get returned that would indicate success/failure? if so how do I capture it?
I'm speaking of some type of try-catch system.
is there another approach I should be taking to debug this problem?

I am trying to setup an ASP code to write a text file to the client side, not the server side, for the purpose where it will be email attachment.
The following code seems to only work on the server side and was wondering if there as an equivalent out there for the client side since I am trying to avoid potential interruptions on the server side:
Const TemporaryFolder = 2
Dim myFSO, WriteStuff, myAttachment, tfolder
Set myFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set tfolder = myFSO.GetSpecialFolder(TemporaryFolder)
if (right(tfolder,1) <> "") then
tfolder = tfolder & ""
end if
myAttachment = tfolder & "test.txt"
Set WriteStuff = myFSO.CreateTextFile(myAttachment, True)

View Replies View RelatedI need to be able to write results from a form picklist to a file. I know I
can append the output at the end of the file but is there a way to add the

I've created a form for users to fill in, and I want to be able to write the details of each form to a text file. Each file is named username.txt (eg. JohnSmith.txt or MikeStiletti.txt)
However, when the code below is processed i get a "Path not found" error. Now these files are on a web server and i am trying to write to my C drive. It would be great if I could create these files on the same web server too by just removing the "C:Surveys" on the bolded line. Code:
I have developed a windows 2000 based web-based
application which uses only HTML and JavaScript code for the
client side and C++ on server side .
Now i need to implement a feature to implement "writing the
log file" on the client machine for this application. As
JavaScript doesn't support client side file writing i think i need
to use ASP or similar language.
1. Is it possible to write on client machine using ASP??
2. If it is possible please thow some light on how to implement
this.
3. Will my code be stable if i embedd the ASP code into the exisiting HTML & JavaScript code?
Anyone know if this is possible? If so, on which page would the cookie be? .. On the page calling a function defined in the include file?
