I have a machine ftp-ing a file into a directory where a script picks it up and does something to it. I dont want the script to process the file if the file is still being copied.the only way I can figure out to do this is to check the size of the file... then wait 'n second and check the size again. and if the size is exactly the same... then asume its all there. but this doesn't seem like the right way to do it. is there no easy way or simple property I can check to see if its done?
I've got a variable that can hold one or more words called strUserName. I want to display the complete value of that variable in a form field but I only get the first word
How can I retrieve the complete URL of the current page? (by using ASP, not Javascript!)
What I mean is this - I have a long URL something like: https://www.zzzzzz.com:8080/zzzz/zzz.asp?aaa=1&bbb=2#a1
I know I can read parts of URL through server variables, such as PATH_INFO, QUERY_STRING etc. and then concate the string variable, but that is not enough! I need to request the COMPLETE URL like I mentioned in the example.
I need a function that would retain a value like 112.50 as opposed to 112.5. It is needed for currency values and display. I tried using cSng, cCur, but they all seem to trunicate the zero.
I am to build a site onto an ASP server. Anyone here used Dreamweaver and is it just a simple matter of opening up a new ASP page in Dreamweaver and build the site like you would normally do with a HTML page and it will handle the ASP coding accordingly and you can just simply upload it onto an ASP server and it will work?
The site I am to build is basically just a standard html website, but my friend wants me to build it for an ASP server so he has asked me to make sure it is an asp site so I am presuming with the extension .asp
If I build it as a html site to begin with, will converting it to asp be hard. Could I just export my pages into asp or is there more to it?
Can a Html website be loaded and working on an asp server or host?
Is it possible to have a site mixed both html and asp, eg. the home page is html and when you click on shopping cart on the home page it goes to a hopping cart page thats .asp or do they all have to have the same extension.
i dont know if this should be a mysql question or a asp question...
i have a database that stores all the orders and each orders total. How can i make it so that i can add all the order totals together, to get a final total
We are planning to improve the present search (Product DB search). Is there any way on ASP script to make an auto complete text box, loaded with the product names (like in google suggest). I hear AJAX, can that be used with ASP scripts?
If I type the letter "A" it jumps to "AAA" in the list. If I type the letters "AB" it jumps to "BAB" as "B" was the last letter typed. Is there a way to have it accept "AB" as "AB" and jump to "ABA"?
I have problem with my page, but IIS only show "The page cannot be displayed". How to display complete error message ? I think I've read this sometimes ago here, but I can't find it.
Right Im close to finishing this nightmare of a website now! 2 things left to do. First is insert images. OK I have done this using Shadow Wizards 'ShadowUploader'. So the way it works on my page is that the user has to upload the file from there local hard drive into the server folder.
Then they browse for that file, hit ok, then submit the form. Can I restrict that browser window only to look in that Images folder on the server instead of being able to browse the whole computer?
I have a requirement to record in a database when a file is finished downloading to the end-user. Currently when a user clicks a download icon for a file it directs to an ASP page that records the "hit" into a database, then I use a response.redirect "filename.exe" to point the user to the download.
What I'm missing is knowing when the download is complete so I can update the database to show the file successfully completed its download. Is there a way to do this with ASP? A way to do this with an aftermarket component?
I have a simple asp form which writes to a csv. The code it's based on (from "ASP for Dummies") is:
Set peoplefile - _ filesys.OpenTextFile( _ "c:inetpubwwwrootgbgbpeople.txt",1)
The form is going live soon, and I'd like just a dash of due diligence in terms of security. I tried using a relative link to the gbpeople.txt file which didn't work. Is there a better way around this without reinventing?
I have to pass form data from my site to another organizations site using POST method... how exactly do I do that? Im familiar with how to do it within a single site/domain, and cant use querystring... I dont know where to begin.
Whenever I do a site that is mostly static but with some semi-dynamic sections, I've struggled to find a good site search solution without paying for a hosted search service.
I like the FSO-based search engines, but they fail to pick up on some of the dynamic part.
I was just creating a Google sitemap and it made me wonder: has anyone created or seen a script that uses the XML Google sitemap to power a search engine for your own site?
Seems like if you were keeping it updated for Google, why not use it for your own site?
can i directly mail to hotmail or yahoo acount with any asp.net code.
i have an example like above but i need smtp adress for hotmail, i tried it for smtp.mail.yahoo.com but it didnt work and "authentication required" error accured
I just took over maintaining an ASP codebase for sending out newsletters by mail, as well as basic subscriber maintenance.
Thing is working ok today, with ~200 subscribers, but there are plans on selling this 'solution' to clients with substantially higher demands; at least in the low 1000's..
Would you consider asp suitable for this purpose? Would be a definitive plus not having to use other technology, but i'm concerned about timeouts and whatnot while sending out such a batch of mail.
Guess it could be made workable with tons and tons of logging, and maybe generating a client redirect every X mails, to restart/keep the script going?
Or is it perhaps possible to fork off a new thread and do this as a real background task? I'm not too knowledgeable on ASP, and neither was the guy who wrote this system in the first place, unfortunately.
I am having problems e-mailing information gathered from a form. Origionally Flash sent all the info to an asp file that e-mailed the content to me. The problem is that the people running the server changed the server and I was informed that there is now no smtp mailer, or something like that. I don't think the server supports other languages, I think the guy said it was a domino? server running windows. I have tried writing simple html forms with php, but can't get anything to work.
I have over 6,000 subscribers to my newsletter and am considering using CDOSYS to send the newsletter to them.This would create a multipart(text and html)version to be sent to everyone.
Whilst the HTML is only 8kb I have the feeling that creating a page which loops over 6,000 times to produce all those emails is not very efficient.or is it?
I don't exactly want to run a test and mail to almost everyone and then it fail/timeout/hang the server.
I am currently designing a website using HTML and ASP. However as part of my website i will be collecting peoples email addresses and sending emails to them fairly regularly. Currently the E-Mail . address are being held in an access database after being inputted from the website.
if there is any way i can interface my website with Outlook or another E-Mail program to enable me to easily send the prewritten emails to the address list.
I'm thinking about how to implement a web based SMS mailing list. The web users can subscribe / unsubscribe to the mailing list via the site and then the mailing list is used to send out SMSs containing latest offers etc.
Implementing the mailing list will be relatively simple, but I have never dealt with SMS within a site before, and was wondering if there are any ways of sending SMSs using ASP Classic.
i have create mailing list system using dreamweaver. i'm using asp. the system should be able to print the recipient name and address. i want to print it in the label sticker. the problem is how to set it to print in specific location. the sticker have 3 columns and 8 rows.
I 've coded an asp webpage where a user could toggle a boolean value through a checkbox. When the checkbox was pressed, the page posted the toggle action to itself, a
connection.execute "UPDATE tableName SET fieldName=(Not fieldname) WHERE field_id=1
query was performed and the checkbox, after I had retrieved its new value through a recordset, changed its appearence(state). At first I used an MS Access DB and it worked fine.
After I had switched the hole application to work with MS-SQL, although I changed the above query to Code:
I have been looking everywhere, and can't find a complete function to create tables and columns in access .mdb from ASP, while adding columns that are missing in tables that already exist, can anyone post a link or the code to such function?
I want to know if there is a possibility of mailing the iis log files automatically,say on a daily basis. The problem i am facing now is that my web host is very busy and i need to send dozens of mails to remind him. Also tell me the security previlages needed to execute the script so that i can convey the same to my web host....
And last but not the least can we develop this script with windows nt workstation + iis 4 wihout smtp.
