Basically each page has a checkbox for each item and they should be able to click the items they want to add and continue on, and at the end it creates a dynamic report to give to a customer. On the first page there are 9 check boxes. The access database table called "IMAP" has two columns: "id" (primary key) with values 1 thru 9 and a column "active" with the yes/no type. Code:
View RepliesI want to store a bunch of textstrings (about 500) returned from a database
query in a session array. I've googled all over the net, not to find any
working method.
Is there anybody who has the ultimative, definite working method as to how
you transfer a "local" array to a session array and later transfer the
session array to a "local" array.
how can i go about creating arrays in ASP and then storing them in session variables?
View Replies View RelatedI have two related tables in my database. One stores events and the other stores a list of key topics.
I have an interface set up where users can add / edit events.
In the add event page, I am querying the "key topics" table and returning them as options (array of checkboxes). The user makes their pick, and submits. All the data saves in the 'event" table, including the primary id of the "topics".
That part works great. The problem I am having is when the EDIT event page resolves, I am trying to "check" the options that were previously saved.
First thing I do (at the top of the page) is to query the events table to pull all of the data out. I use the 'events" table to do this.
For the checkboxes, I am once again looping through them in a query that uses the "key topics" table. So the boxes are displayed, but I can't seem to get the logic right to have the appropriate ones checked. here is my current code:
at the moment i am creating a shopping cart of sorts. Simply the user selects the check boxes of the items he wants and clicks submit. The items are dynamically created and they could select anything from 1 to 100 items..
so processing the form is clear not possible by hard coding. How could i read all the values from the POST into an array instead of processing each item at a time.
I have a html page with 20 checkboxes in it. I want to compare the value av the checkboxes ( when the user choose them) with an array which has 5 values.
My checkboxes have different values but same name....
It has to work like this that the user marks the checkboxe and sumbit the form. The result should sends as an email and my program has to compare the checkboxes values and the values in my array och write the result in the email that should be send away.
I have two arrays which are values for checkboxes and I need to compare them, The first array I created which is the checkbox values that were selected previously Code:
View Replies View RelatedHas anyone worked with Application variables in an array format? I need to create a list of 40 items using some sort of persistant array. I can do this with a DB, but in this case, it would not be efficient.
I did a few tests by trying to pass an array to an Application var, but can't seem to get it back.
<% Dim MyArray(39)
'populate the array
Application("myArray") = myArray
%>
then on another page, I tried
<%
Dim myArray(39)
myArray = Application("myArray")
'loop through the retrieved elements

I know coldfusion has this feature built in using the SessionTracker class... does ASP have something similar? If not... is there any way I can just iterate through all the session files on the server...?
I am using Session variables in my ASP application. I have tested the
application on a Win2k professional and it works fine. When the same web
app is installed on a win2k advanced server from the client browser when the
app is accessed the session variable returns null inspite of a value being
already set. I have checked the IIS enable session state settings. When i
use the server machine as client and access the app as localhost then the
session variable has correct value.
How can this be solved? What other settings if any, need to be changed to
get it work.
Do session variables carry over if you've left your site and come back?
My shopping cart uses PayPal/IPN to transact and then enter details of the transaction into my database. All of the data entry takes place after IPN has returned all of the data to my site.
A couple of the fields I need to populate are held in session variables throughout the application. When the customer clicks on the checkout button, and is sent over to PayPal's server to complete the transaction, will the session variables still be available to me upon returning to my site?
Is there a way to close a single session variable, once it's been created? I have an application that requires a several session variables to be created once a person enteres a certian section of my site. When they leave the variables are set to nothing, as they are no longer needed. I'd like to just close them out, but I will still need to keep the session open, so Session.Abandon will not work in this case.
View Replies View RelatedI recently reformatted my PC and reinstalled ISS onto Windows 2000.
Since I have done that, my local sites don't work as they used to.
By that I mean, if I have a login page, such as this: Code:
On my IIS 5.0 i have enable session state set to 20 minutes
ASP SCRIPT TIMEOUT set to 200 seconds.
On my asp pages i even coded in session.timeout = 60
When i check the value of one of my sessions on a page i
am being returned to main page.
i.e If session("basket") = "" then
go to mainpage.asp
When i check the session.timeout on the page this is set
to 60
If i wait around for a few minutes i.e 5 then i am taken
back to mainpage.asp...
The server is not given me the 20 minutes session state.
I cannot seem to get session variables to work on our test server.
The test server is running windows server 2000 with service pack 4, iis 5.0.2195.6620, and sql server 2000.
However, on our main server, NT 4.0 fully updated, they do work.
Could anyone enlighten me as to why session variables don't work on Windows Server 2000?
We have different types of logins for our accounts on our intranet. When a
person logs in, a Session variable is set to determine their level of
access. For sake of argument, say the two LoginTypes are Manager and
Employee.When I log in (as a Manager), I get a certain set of options on the
homepage. Then I return to the login page, after logging in as myself, and
log in as an Employee. For some reason, the page seems "cached" and the
manager options will still display. If I refresh this page, it will appear
the way it should. I *think* this only happens when I copy/paste a URL that
I was at as a Manager. I believe that if I click a link, it displays
properly.Is there a way to prevent this? I do a ton of copying/pasting
URLs.
I would like to declare a session variable.

I have read couple of articles warning against the use of storing VB COM
objects (Apartment Threading) in Session Variables due to the fact that
these variables could go bad.My question is what's the workaround this?
I have also read about making ASP Stateless...I'm guessing that means
turning the session and application variables off and if you do that
then how do you pass information for a particular user from one page to
another?I'm confused about how to get an ASP site working without using
Application and Session variables as well as not storing VB COM objects
in Session Variables.
I have a session variable in a login page. Then I go to a form page where I
uses the ProfileID and the UserID. Then I go to a result page where I would
like to use the UserID as a filter, but I can't get the value is stored in it.
I'm loading a variable into the session variables that will be for checking to see if the user can access a certain area of the website. When the user logs out or gives and incorrect login password is it better to kill off all the variables using session.abandon or to set the session access variable to False?
I'm not really concerned about using the servers resources with this one variable, but I would like to keep the server as free as possible.
I've noticed that in my ASP application that session variables are not carried over from
one IE6 open browser window to another.
Can anyone tell me how IE can do this? It seems like it's a useful protection mechanism
that I can add to my application.
BTW, I'm looking for a way to determine if someone is moving cookies between computers.
How IE and/or ASP handles sessions might give me some insights (and I'm open to

I need to implement Session() variables to cache some frequently looked up
data. Because of the nature of the data, it is best held in the Session()
rather than the Application() object.Is there a limit to the how long the parameter name can be?
For example:
Session("HairColour") - the parameter name length her is 10 characters -
what's the max length (is there a max length)?
I ask because my code will generate these parameter names on the fly and I
don't want them to break anything
I have a question regarding ASP session variables.
My assumption was that a session variable has the same lifetime as the
session itself: as a consequence, given that closing the browser doesn't
terminate the session, the session variable is kept alive until the
session expires.But, surprisingly, I've found this to be true for the session variables
whose value is set in the global.asa file, but if the value is set in an
..asp script, it appears to be erased from the session object as soon as
the browser is closed although the session is still alive. Strange. Is
this a bug?What I'd need to know is: how I can make session variables whose value
is set in an .asp script persistent as long as the session is alive.
In my GLOBAL.ASA file I'm trying to create a session variable for reference
in the various webpages of my site....
Sub Session_OnStart
Session("LoggedOn")="Y"
End Sub
When referring to Session("LoggedOn") on my various ASP pages, it is coming
up as "".
I'm obviously misunderstanding how this works... Can anyone point me the
right direction?
Eventually I'll need to access a database and I'm assuming that if I need to
connect to that database, that I'll need to create the connection in the
Session_OnStart event and destroy the connection in the Session_OnEnd event
of the GLOBAL.ASA file.
I need to hold some session variables on an intermediate page for later use . My problem is I dont know Where to store the session command. Do I put it in the head of the page of the form I get the Variable from , do I put it into the response page (I am using The POST method) or Where ?
View Replies View RelatedOn the index page of my site the following code creates a unique user id in the form:

if session("userid") = "" then

This is checked in every page to make sure the user has an id with the following code:

I have just moved hosting companies to Brinkster.com but have been
having problems with my applications holding session.
They say they can't guarantee sessions and recomend another method of
storing persistant data.
I questioned them on why, only on their servers, my sessions are being
reset as often as they are. They said it must be a coding issue.
However, I have not had trouble before, with same applications on
different or local servers.
So my question is this, what can reset session data? Just a reset of
iis?
I'm having problems with carrying variables over from one page to another and then using them in if/then statements.

I'm not the best at explaining things so here's my code:
View Replies View RelatedI have a website written in asp that uses session variables. On

I have some pages in an asp site. Page one collects some data through a form and posts it to page two. Page two inserts the data into an access database and sets three of them as session variables. Page three is supposed to display those variables. My problem is that page three does not display any variables. All the variables are declared correctly and when i tried displaying them with page 2, they displayed properly but between page 2 and 3, they get lost.
View Replies View RelatedI have an web application framework that uses sessions to
maintain a userID and some other variables. If a userID
is not present in the session collection, it redirects the
user to a login page, assuming their session expired.
However, this has been happening seemingly at random on
some of our implementations. The configuration is
basically the same... IIS 5.0, Win2k, IE6, etc. Also,
this happens even when a user goes from screen to screen
so it isn't a timeout issue.
Is it client-side? Server-side? Is it due to some additional security features added
in updates to IE? I don't think we ever had this problem
in IE5.5, but I don't have a written history of that.
I’m experiencing a problem regarding Session Variables and/or Cookies.
I have developed a web site, part of which is the member’s area (I guess well known to everyone) using ASP code. The problem is that it is functioning perfect on the ISP who is hosting the site but it doesn’t on my local server in the office. In both the cases a Session Variable is set to true (lets named it “SESSecured” ) when a user is authenticated (programmatically using Access Database) and all the rest ASP pages are querying the variable in order to proceed or not. In my office server this variable is always empty each type a new ASP page is loaded. In fact any variable set in any previous stage is empty which made me to investigate further and to found that each ASP page is getting a new SESSION_ID! On the cookies matter, tried to use cookies instead of Session variables and found that no cookies can be created
