I'm trying to verify a request.form("blah") with a field (value) in a recordset taken from an Access Database. Basically what I'm trying to do is once this NUMBER is entered into the form object (textfield), check a database to see if this number has been used (i.e. in the database) and if so redirect them to an error page.
I thought this would be rtight, but doesn't seem to work
If rsTeddyCheck = Request.Form("PersonalID") then
response.redirect ("Error.asp")
Else
process.asp
End If
I have a form that inserts a student's course choices into an Access db. The student can choose from 4 options in a day. From a drop down box that is populated from the db. Each course has a field called count1, count2, count3 and count4 which are the class sizes for those sessions. When they choose a session, I have a bit of ASP that takes '1' away from the count.
However, I need to validate the form when it is submitted so that if course = 0 a message pops up to say the course in that session is full. At the moment, the drop down boxes are populated by SQL that says only show if count>0 but if a lot of students load the page at the same time they can all subscribe to it - so I am getting -4 in some sessions. I need to check whether the course in that option is full i.e. '0' when the form is validated and then for it to tell them that that particular session is full.
I am trying to pass a hidden field value on a form into another field on the form so that it can then be inserted in the database, to enable me then to reference that number at a later date.
(The hidden value (1 for example) would then automatically get passed to the other input field.)
The code for the text field that allows users to type an number into it for submission to the db is below, but what code do i need within the hidden field to populate this text field below so that users do not have to type the number in? Code:
The script is designed as a form validator which checks fields for various criteria and then sends a mail with the form contents. Since 40 different forms will be plugged into this script, there needed to be complete seperation between the two.
I've managed it so far by checking for required fields by putting the word 'required' into the name of the field. The script then sources out any fields which has this text and checks them to see if they are filled out.
The problem I've come across now is that I need to check for field length. My idea was to put the amount of characters needed into the name of the field in the form and then have the script check with a Reg Exp. However, Im not too sure of the regular expression needed to check for this.
Can someone suggest one? The one I have at the moment is [1-14] but say I had a field like this: <input type="text" name="passwordrequired12"> That would match bout for 1 and 12. Any ideas?
I have a form field that will contain an IP based on a TeamSpeak or Ventrilo IP. What I need to do, is check to make sure there are 4 groups of numbers in the form field. Or, check to see if the entry contains 3 periods. 1.2.3.4 <--- example there are 4 groups, and 3 periods.
Now of course, the IP can be as large as 4 groups of 3 numbers, so I can't check string length. how would I check this and validate it on my asp processing page?
I need to check a form to make sure the ID is between 8-15 characters and the password is between 8-10. I can create the form, but am not sure how I could check these lengths. i'm sure there is some simple code and also I do not know where I would put it.
I have a form that currently input data into an access db. The first thing that I would like to happen when the Submit button is clicked, is to check one column in the database to see if there are any duplicates before uploading any data. So my question is, how?
i'm making a forum, and previously i was submitting the form to an asp file, which would check for errors -- if there were errors, it would redirect back to the form with error messages to be displayed -- if it was error free, the message would be written to a txt file.
but then i wanted to put in a preview message page, and so error checking and passing values between the three pages is becoming tricky. so i'm at the point where i'm starting to use javascript to error-check, which works fine for making sure the input is good, but i don't know a good way to notify the user that there are errors with javascript. alert messages are unprofessional, and i can't just add text to the page using javascript.
i'd prefer to use only asp, and i'd prefer it if i didn't have to use an extra asp page JUST to error-check. as it is now i have these pages involved in adding a new subject:
post subject (has the form for the subject and message; the user can click either post message, which will directly write the message, or preview message, which will bring them to a page which displays the post as it would appear once written)
preview message (regardless of what the user clicks, it would come here first to do error checking, and depending on what the user clicked it would either redirect to the page which writes the subject, or display the message;
the problem is, if there are errors with the form, i need to point the user back to post subject without losing whatever info they have already entered. the only way i know how to do that is by submitting a form [i can't use a querystring because it won't maintain the message if the user entered multiple lines in the message])
add subject (this does the backend writing of the message, and is only accessed if the fields have made it through the error-checking)
any solutions in mind on how to pass the field values between these three pages?? or is there a better way i can do error checking??
i have a form for users to enter their name password and e-mail,i am currently using javascript to check that all details have been filled,
if(myForm.fname.value=='') { alert("Plz enter a first name") return false }
This works if the field is left blank however if the user enters numbers(1,2) or spaces i.e.(" ") how do i deal with these,i also need to check that the e-mail contains "@" and "."
I have a form that has approximately 7 text fields and 1 checkbox. Generally when this form is submitted(to itself BTW) it works fine, however, when the checkbox is only field that has been modified/clicked the form doesn't always submit. When it does work, a Stored procedure is passed form variables and updates to the db are made. When it doesn't, its as if the form wasn't submitted, it reloads and resets the page, but the stored procedure isn't triggered.
How do you make a form field's value be determined based on the page URL?I've seen sites that you can change the URL like this (given "UserName" is the name of the field):
Then when I clicked to visit this page, when it loaded, the value of the UserName field would be preset to baseballdude_.I've tried doing this for one of my sites, but it doesn't work. Is there some way of enabling this?
I have a form that users fill in, thefirst field is a username, which must be unique.Currently only when I attempt the Insert into the DB does the restaint inform the user that it already exists.Is there any way i can check , let say onblur, if that username exists, so that they dont have to complete the whole form before being informed?
I have an asp page that has a form and only 1 field which is know as the ID field.
I only want users to enter an Integer value in the field. If they enter anything else it should come up with a pop up box error and not allow them to process the page.
I'm trying to make a simple Feedback Form using that CDONTS thing I read about (in that "How to use CDONTS" thread). Every works like it should until I try to step it up a little and get the information from a Form... Code:
I am trying to create an upload form field in asp. Below is my code. When I try and access the form I get the following error. Does any one know whats wrong with my code the error I get is
We have a shared hosting plan (Windows-based) with GoDaddy.com. GD.com has a "generic" form mailer script (gdform.asp) that allows us to set up a "Contact Us" page, which, when the user clicks "Submit" sends an email to us.
I am a complete newbie re asp, but looking at the code, it looks to me as if a error is generated if any of the fields are left blank--which is good. I don't want to be getting emails that don't contain messages, or that don't contain a return email address.
However, submitting a completely blank form results in me getting an email with blank response fields.
Can you take a look at this code and tell me if it should be allowing blank fields to be submitted? Are there any changes that can be made? Code:
I would like to make two field in a for required fields. Do you all know a simple way to accomplish this? I can post form and any asp if needed( page is getting really huge).
I have a form field on an ASP page and was wondering if I can require the number that is entered to begin with a 0 or a 2.If the number starts with anything else,the user is notified to update the number correctly(Your [FormField] must begin with a 0 or a 2, Please update your entry).
Is there an ASP equivalent to Javascript's '...focus.();' that returns focus to a form field? I want to accept input from a user on a form.This input is to be databased and also unique. I want to check the user's input against what already exists in the database. If the input already exists.
I want to generate a pop up dialog box ala javascript and then when it's acknowledged, return focus to the form field.
I'm using MS database editor.When the db is updated ("submit") I want to send an email to an addrss in one of the fields.The db update function works well.
I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to use an email-processing page for different forms.For example, having a feedback as well as a contact form page.When the user fills out the form I would like it to be processed on the next page,which will display all the completed fields as well as email them to the recipient.
I can do this with just one form,but what if I'd like to use the same form-processing script with a different page and then another without having to specify particular form fields.
This is done in CGI.I looked at Matt Wright's formmail script but I don't know if the same carries over to ASP.
I know that the order of from fields from a form post are somewhat random. But, what about fields that have the same name -
<input type="text" name="something" value=""> First Choice <input type="text" name="something" value=""> Second Choice <input type="text" name="something" value=""> Third Choice <input type="text" name="something" value=""> Fourth Choice
First = "bananna" Second = "orange" Third = "" Fourth = "apple"
Will the values, in the delimited list contained in Request.Form("something"), always be in the order they are in the form? That is - bananna, orange, , apple
I have a form where the user enters a customer name, then clicks the submit button which then adds it to a database. This works absolutely fine untill the name has an apostrophe in it.
eg when the name entered is O'Hanlon and its submitted, I get this error.....
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E14) Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''O'Hanlon'
I have a form F1, once submitted it goes into another form F2, I want the fields in F2 to be filled with the values the user filled out in F1. in php I would use the $_POST[] to get it, but I dont know nothing of asp
and from what I could find on the web, would this work?
and what if they accessed the page directly, rather than through a previous form, would it field appear blank? or do I have to have an if statement. also what if based on the F1 value I want to select (check) a checkbox/radiobutton or drop down menu in F2?
I have a asp form that has a dynamic drop-down box that a user selects a value from. Once the user makes a selection I use the onChange event to capture the selection and pass this value to a vbscript sub.
The sub then makes a adsi query using this value to retrieve additional information. This all works. I used a msgbox to display the retrieved value and it is correct. My problem is how do I update a field on the form with this retrieved value?
