The release notes for IIS 6.0 talks about ASP support for POSTs from clients that are using chunked Transfer-encoding.what this support means? It does not seem to be possible to use Request.BinaryRead, and Request.TotalBytes returns -1.
I have problems communicating with ASP pages so I am trying to help the developer of the page. The problem is with posting chunked data. According to HTTP 1.1 Content-Length header is missing so Request.TotalBytes is -1.
The only idea I have is that we should use Request.ReadBinary till end of the stream is reached?
Has anybody managed to get ASP working with chunked data properly?
When I get the following input stream of chunked data I ge Request.TotalBytes = -1 because there is not Content-Length.
The following will work because I hardcoded the correct length:
TotalBytes = 16 strBRequest = Request.BinaryRead(TotalBytes) I get: 16 bytes of data (see below)
However, if I don't know the length and try to use something > 16 li 100 then I get at error and the TotalBytes is set to 16 and th strBRequest is empty.
Does anybody know how to determine how to get around this. I am usin Transfer-Encoding: chunked because I do not know how much data is bein uploaded (could be very very large).
Is there a way to 'force' a submit on a form with out actually allowing the user to press a button ? For example...
step1: A from is filled out by a user, then they click the submit button.
step2: The form is 'post'ed to an ASP page which writes the values to a database. So far No problems. But..
step3: Now I want to 'post' these values again to another page without any user interaction.
My ideas were:
1) I know you can get the form values from Request.Form("myVar"), so I thought of making a 'dummy' form and setting the 'values' of the form variables to these Request.Form("myVar") valiables, but I don't know how to 'submit' them to another page again.
i have a series of .asp pages that i am dividing into model, view, control logic. my view collects a whole bunch of data and posts it to the controller. im wondering if there is a way to somehow "re-post" this same data to my model page.
in short, is .asp capable of taking data posted to a page and re-post that same data to another page?
I've been lurking and searching for a while and hope someday to contribute to the forums. My question though it may seem strange is this. Is it possible to run a compiled VB app on the client machine that is called from an asp app running on an intranet server? Intranet server pushes asp to client's web browser. Client clicks on a link that somehow runs the process on the client machine. I realize this is not what asp is meant to do but I do have some applications that could be integrated into the company intranet fairly easily if this is possible. A re-write in asp would be labor intensive. It is simple enough for me to setup standard folders on the clients that require these apps
I am developing an app that has a reporting function which displays the non-PDF reports. One of the users wishes to have the reports saved to his machine as PDFs.
The app can convert the reports, and save to the server with no problem (uses a component for this). The problem is, figuring out how to save the reports to the client.
The ideal approach would be to have the app save the reports to his desktop, like some of those stupid casino sites save their shortcut links.
However, I would settle for just just being able to force the "download" dialog to display, instead of opening Acrobat when the app attempts to send the report to the client.
im setting up a database email for my job and i still need a little help. Thx for those who helped me out for past touble...
Well, im now at the step of email deletion from the list and im using a simple script for that (cuz im new to programming).
After the customer received the email, i want him to be able to unsubscribe to my newsletter with a click on a link which lead to a delemail.asp page where the script is. Code:
I have a page which allows the user to open one of several spreadsheets by streaming the XLS to the client.
On my development site, everything appears to work fine. On the live site, it works fine for the vast majority of users, but not for my colleague & I.
When this page is called with the correct inputs, the standard Open/Save/Cancel/More Info dialog should appear. In the dialog, it gives the following details:
Filename: Gothenburg Sweden.xls File type: Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet From: Servername
Clicking on open, means that the file will be opened in the local copy of Excel; this works for most people, except one colleague and myself. In our case, after clicking on Open, we get the following error msg:
"Internet Explorer cannot open travel.asp?journey=1 from <servername> Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later."
I want to validate client entries into textbox,checkbox controls etc. can u do this with asp. Like, is there onchange and onclick and so on for these controls?
I'm currently working on an Intranet for one of our clients. I'm developing a user directory for them using a SQL Server database. My client has provided me with the information to connect to the server remotely via windows remote desktop connection. I would like to know how I go about getting Dreamweaver to connect to the database? Will I have to create a database locally and then publish the local database onto their server or, can I create the database on their server and using DW to connect to it?
This has happened before and it was due the connection string not being set in VB. My question is, when I try to reconnect can I use a different connection string on the client than I have on the server, I wonder because not all my connection strings are not equal.
Some of my database paths are in Access and the rest are in SQL. That means I have to retry several times before a scrip timeout occurs. If you have read this far then you are an idiot, but the rest of the database seems to work just fine. In fact I can pull all fields out with no problem. It is just that connection string that has resulted in causing my pages not to post.
I have created one ActiveX DLL in VB that has one public function ("GetClientCPUID") which will return a string of the CPUID. I want to use this to get the clients CPUID and retuern to webserver. I am new to using activeX in client side.
In Asp how can I send this ActiveX to client browser? (I will instruct my users to allow this activeX). Is there a way I will execute this activeX in clients PC and get the return value and return to the server for my processing? Please suggest the ways that I can do this.
Also suggest what are the situations that I should know before I proceed. I think there will might a issue when I upgrade the activeX and the client those are using the current one may face problem so I think I will need a way to uninstall the register the new one. Code:
I want to add clinet side javascript on the asp:dropdownlist's onchecked changed event how i do this does any one have any idea.i use the following method in vb.net code behind file
I have my asp pages stored in my server ,but when i try and call the asp pages in the clinet side it does not show a portion of the page,the same thing if i call from the server it shows me.
I know ASP isn't the best way to do this, but is it possible?
I've written an application in ASP that manipulates an MS SQL database. We'd like to have our application automatically backup the database at specific times. We'd also like to generate an email report once a day on the statics of our database.
Is this possible with ASP? How else could it be done, considering our application is all HTML/ASP?
I'd like to have two radio buttons, and the first one will be selected by default when the page loads. When it is selected, the two checkboxes below the second radio button should be invisible.
The only way to see the two checkboxes is when the second radio button is selected. If you select it and then go back to the first radio button, those checkboxes should disappear again.what should i do?
I need to know if, and how, it is possible to use ASP to download a file automatically from the web server to the client in a given path. Is that possible ? Ideally I want a page with a link that when pressed it will copy a certain file that exists on the web server down to the client.
1.what's the cons in using access 2003 with client/server apps?I know for starters that it crashes when traffic is big and that u have to repair and compress it every now and then. what do u think? 2.and also,should I write and execute my sql sentences in the asp page itself or use wsc for that? 3.what are the benefits of using xml besides xmlhttp and using it to retrieve info from other sites?I have heard that u can present your own data easier with it.
Is it possible using mailto: to create an email with everything except an attachment and then when a user clicks on send intercept that form and recreate the email on the server and add a file to it?
We want to create an Intranet page for our customers. which provides a variety of information. But we also want to be able to allow users to access applications on that PC by clicking a link on the page (ex. link: WRITE A LETTER - opens MS Word). All PC's are imaged the same way so the applications are always in the same location.
I'm sure this is a violation of MS security inherent in IE, IIS, or in Windows XP alone. Can someone offer an advice - as to (1) is this possible using an Intranet page; or (2) is there a development environment that it would be possible in?
I've an html form with some fields, I have to normally post them clicking a submit button to an asp page; this page have to programmatically repost these fields and other constants to another page
I do this beacuse I don't want the web user to see the costants which are the authentication values (username password)
I couldn't get my page to POST to my server I thought because I had run IIS lockdown and other hardening tools. Now I've rebuilt the whole server from scratch and have yet to disable anything. I still can't POST. GET has been working fine all along. Is there anything that needs to be done beyond setting the forms method to POST and using Request.Form(whatever), instead of Request.QueryString (whatever)? Is there something that I need to put in the ASP or client page header or something? I must be missing something. Maybe IIS 5 needs to be set up to use POST or something.
