I am using this connection string (DSNless) for the database driven website.
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:inetpubwwwrootdatabaseInventory.mdb"
where Dreamweaver could connect driver to testing server
but i get this message
"could not use ";file already in use"
what does that mean?
I am developing a website and it's going fine, but i've heard that you shouldn't have your database in the wwwroot, it should be outside/above that.
I've done this (i'm using Dreamweaver MX) so I moved the db, fixed my odbc/dsn, connection string etc, but when I upload now I get this error.
Microsoft JET Database Engineerror '80004005'
'C:Program FilesEnsimSiteDatawebpplianceconfdomainsInet pubwwwrootTesting_SiteDatabasesTesting_Website _DataSource.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides. /Testing_Site/default.asp, line 8
This is line 8: Recordset1.ActiveConnection = MM_TestingConnection_STRING
Is there something that I have missed. It was ok when it was in the wwwroot.

1. Connection strings need to be in global.asa file always?
2. How can we encrypt the connection string userid and passwd in global.asa?
Looking for a way to secure string. Have connect.asp page as an include file, but want to still use dsn-less connection and not have this in an asp page. Though about putting this in the global.asa file. Don't want to create a DSN and give IUSR_ rights to SQL DB.

In the context of Security, what are some best practices for
handling -storing, locating, retrieving- database OLEDB connection strings?
I have typically used a single include file and even considered stuffing the
string in a document (XML or otherwise) outside of the root directory. I
know of and have used methods to store connection strings in the registry of
the server. My thinking is the optimal solution involves some form of
encryption and locating the string outside of the site itself. Code:
In a string what is the character I should use to represent an enter?
View Replies View Relatedi am retrieving a record from the database, I am trying to place the value of the FULLNAME field in a textbox on a Form, the Problem is that it only displays half of the name leaving out the stuff that comes after a SPACE.
Example:
adors("fullname").value <--- Actual Value is John Smith
but it only displays John
Code:
<INPUT id=text1 readonly name=txtfullname value=<%=adors("fullname").value%>>
but if I try to just response.write it anywhere on the page then it displays the entire name.
I have 2 SQL strings:
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & "
ORDER BY editie desc
And
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID
ORDER BY editie desc
Now I want to combine those 2 to one string.
I have problems to set it up in working order.
My tryout:
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID &
" & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & "
ORDER BY editie desc
It shows al the records which are joined, only the second string " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & " is not working.
I found out a really nice way to keep things on the same page is for any processing page to add on a "?<something>=<something>"
and then just check to see what the something is equal to, and the number represents what you want the front page to show.
However, this <something> shows up on the url listing in a browser. Is there anyway to .. encode it so no one can see it? Like a encode/decode function?
I'm building a forum, and right now i'm creating the ability to edit posts. As part of this i want to add the usual "Edited by UserName on Date" line at the bottom, but am having problems doing so.

i am having a problem with comparing two strings. I am taking
in the parameter rs("Company") and if this is empty i want to put some
text in there. I am testing it with an empty Company field and comparing
it like so:
temp1=rs("Company")
temp2=StrComp(temp1,NULL)
I have also tried it with
temp2=StrComp(temp1,"")
but each time i get nothing returned. Is there some rule about comparing a
string with an empty string?
I have a search function on my site, and what happens at them moment is the user fills in a text box with their search string, and clicks submit. The search page takes their string, and splits it up where it sees " ".
All fairly simple, what I'd like is to allow the user to enter text in speechmarks, so the script would search for a couple of words together, as well as being able to search for every individual word...
Everyone confused yet?!
e.g If the user enters Dev Shed Forums , then the search would look for every occurance of the strings "Dev", "Shed" and "Forums"
What I want is for the user to be able to enter "Dev Shed" Forums, and the search will look for "Dev Shed" and "Forums"...

How do I "escape" any quotes, accidental carriage returns etc that are
contained within strPageTitle? Do I have to use a series of replace()
functions, or is there a cunning way that makes it OK?
(Using escape(strPageTitle) fills the box with % signs...)

View Replies View RelatedI am currently developing a registration application for the Boy Scouts. We have paper forms for those who choose not to use a computer to register. The paper forms have a box for each letter so that it is legible. how can i re-create the paper forms with ASP. For those who go online and register they need to print out the youths registration forms and I want them to look like the paper forms.
Now there are a few fields that are mutliple words so it would have to support spaces as well. Is there even a way to do this. I know it is going to be a pain for the good look it is going to be critical. I was thinking of using strings to simply seperate each letter and tell the script to simply repeat until. Is the right way?

Could somebody let me know what these mean? My guess is that the longer string is better, simply because it tests more thoroughly, but I could be mistaken.
