I could really do with some guidance. I am currently hosting my website on a Windows Server, and use ASP pages for accessing MS Access database data and also CDONTS for forms to email.I was just wondering if I were to swap to Linux hosting, how easy or hard ( would it be to change these pages from ASP to PHP with the exact same functionality.
The following code gets me the day of the month which I use in a query to give me all employees' birthdays for this period. But I have a bug: day variable used in the query must give me todays date(19),it gives me 21 (2 more than I want)
I created a form to allow a visitor to add a new record to a database with the recordset object. Is there any conversion that needs to take place from the form input fields the user gives me to the recordset object? One of my form fields that I have is going to contain a money datatype in my SQL database and so far it's giving a 500 error.
My code in short looks like: strCurrentPrice=Request("currentPrice")
then upon adding to the database the code looks like: rsAddCards("currentPrice")=strCurrentPrice
I am calling a recordset from sql which happens to contain one column that is a datetime in the format: DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS. So when I call that column from the db, it displays in the same format within my page.
However, I would like to be able to display the datetime as part of my recordset, but in a more aesthetically pleasing format (i.e: Sunday 1st May 2000, 7.23PM)
I have tried using the formatdatetime() function along with my rs, but this causes syntax errors. I know this is probably dead simple, but I don't get it!
I keep getting a type mismatch 'cdbl' error on the line: cmd_AlloUpdateM2__incrdecr = cdbl(cmd_AlloUpdateM2__incrdecr)
What's weird is I use this in other sections of my code and it works fine...no error. I've checked and re-checked the code and can't find the why this is happening?
Anyone have any code handy to convert a binary number to decimal and a decimal to binary? I need server-side code to perform these calculations. For example, I'd like to be able to pass 129 to a function and it will return 10000001. Likewise, I'd like to pass 10000001 to a function and get 129. I can do this on paper, just not sure where to start on how to pass these numbers into a function to perform the calculation.
I am in UK using XP with date format set to dd/mm/yy. I am running an asp site from a server in USA, which is returning the date from a database field retrieved as objrec("todate") in US format mm/dd/yy. To rectify this so as not to confuse visitors to the site I am trying to get the date displayed as dd month yy , e.g. 25 January 04 by using the format function format(objrec("todate"), "d-mmmm-yy"). This returns me a VBScript runtime error "Type mismatch: 'format' " The data base field "todate" is stored in short date format, which should be OK shouldnt it?
My database is being converted from Access to MySQL. My question is how do I maintain the database once the switch has taken place? Are there freeware MySQL administration GUI's or something? I'm a little clueless here.
I currently am using a script which submits full state names to a payment processor. However, the payment processor only accepts 2 digit state names. Does anyone have a premade code for asp that converts state names into 2 digit ones. Code:
I'm currently working on a form that, upon submit, generates an RTF file. I've run into a little formatting issue. If you're typing in a text box, much like this one, and hit Enter to go down to a new line, nothing happens in the RTF coding. For me to have a text box Enter/Line translate into my RTF file, I need to replace it with /par . So, I know about the Replace() string function, but how can I make this work with a carriage return
I am basically looking to create / incorporate some form of Auto-PDF generator into a website I am developing, essentially so I can set a webpage which I want it to convert.exactly in the same way that it works when you go to a Webpage then in the Browser you hit Print > and select Adobe PDF printer.This then creates a PDF identical to the webpage you are viewing
I seem to be hitting brick walls with this as I found one option which did this, but this did not support CSS, so exported the page on the fly, but with no formatting whatsoever.I then looked into ASPPDF but this does not allow for this

I need to input into an Access database a string. My problem occurs when the string that I grab from an HTML form has a 'in it. I understand why it is doing it. However I do not understand how to fix it.
how do you grab a string from an ASP page such as: "Hello what's up" and place it into an database through ADO. The problem is the single quote. I know how to insert values into a database.
In an ASP page, I use the result (named y) of an external object (which has been called by server.createobject) This result, y, is an array of double (of size (n,1)). As it's not a variant, ASP send me an error (type incompatible) when I want to use it.
Is it possible to convert y in a variant type so that I can use it to make some computations in ASP ?
