I originally had this in javascript. A countdown that would start at say, 200 and then when it got to 0 it would start over. But who ever visits that page will start at 200 and if they close the browser and go back to the page it starts at 200.
i want to create a countdown similar to the home shopping 80 widgets left,79,78,77.... and keeps going no matter who opens page revisits, whatever. Is this an ASP function? Or can this be done at all?
I'm creating a countdown timer to a dynamic date, it reads a date from a db and then counts down to that date. I need to know once the date has been reached how i then display a message stating that the users member ship is up.
I have been searching everywhere but can't find any information on how to do this. Hope someone can help. I am using ASP, SQL, VB, Javascript.
I have the date data in SQL like this 08/28/08 5:20PM I'm trying to create a countdown clock that would take the date and time from the SQL database. Then once it reaches that time it will redirect to another page. Is there anything out there with this example I can use? The time is counted from the server and not the client.
I need to make a countdown to the year 2004. I want it to have days, seconds, minutes, hours, etc.
The only problem is that my server is 3 hours faster than my time, and I need to adjust it in the script somehow, and also please give me the script for the actual countdown.
I'm trying to write a script to countdown the number of hours and minutes until tomorrow. So far, this is what I have:
Code: <% response.write(dateDiff("h",now(),date+1)) & " hours and " & dateDiff("m",Time(),date+1) & " Minutes " %> The code above correctly displays the hours until tomorrow. but it's not displaying the minutes correctly. It's displaying the total minutes until tomorrow. If there at 4 hours left until tomorrow it's saying "4 Hours and 240 minutes."
I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.
Function ShowXML(strXML,strStyleSheet) Set objXML = CreateObject("MSXML.DOMDocument") Set objXSL = CreateObject("MSXML.DOMDocument") objXML.load(Server.MapPath(strXML)) objXSL.load(Server.MapPath(strStyleSheet)) Response.Write objXML.transformNode(objXSL) Set objXML = Nothing Set objXSL = Nothing End Function %>
calling the function in an asp file <%Call ShowXML("http://msn.foxsports.com/feedout/syndicatedContent?categoryId=142","nhl/xsl/news/teamNews.xsl")%>
the errors 1. the http:// part 2. and the ? mark
the error message says that the path has been typed wrong.
I am using the now() function to be displayed on an email after a form submission has been sent. The problem is that the server is not in the same timezone as I am for the result. How do I adjust the hours on the now() to allow for this please ?
I know the basic difference between a subroutine and a function is a subroutine performs a task and a function performs a task and returns a value. The Call keyword is required when using parens with subs with more than 1 parameters. Parens around values passed are ByVal vs ByRef and is a waste of processing if passed ByRef for no reason. I am told there is no reason to ever use a subroutine as a function can be used even if it doesn't return a value. While this appears to be true, is there any reason why it's ever a bad idea to use a function, instead of a subroutine, that doesn't return a value? Are there memory, performance, etc. issues?
I am trying to locate information on how to call a sub within VBScript on an ASP page but I can't locate generic information. What I want to do is generate a page that will stay up but the information on it will change based on a series of drop down boxes. I need the first drop down box to call a second dropped down box based on the state that is chosen then city and so on.
I have a column in the table which contains 2 full names seperated by "&" (e.g: Joe Smith & Jeff Scott) I want to display only the first names of the whole record in an asp page. Is there an asp function using which i can do this?

I used to be quite an experienced ASP programmer but I haven't used it for a while
I’m trying to do something that I remember as very simple I'm trying to check that the value of a form text box is numerical using the isNaN function. The code I am using is:
<% quantity = Request.Form("number1")
if isNaN(quantity) = true then Response.Write "Your input was not a number" else Response.Write "Your input was a number" end if %>
var str = "A" 'convert to ascii num = asc(str) Response.Write num ' 65 shows up 'when I have a whole string str = "hello" str = mid(str, 1, 1) ' return 'h' num = asc(str)
'I get an error:
Invalid procedure call or argument:'asc'What can be done to fix this?
I've an array to store alphabets, in my code...in a random order. How can i use the Asc() function to get the equivalent Ascii of each alaphabaet of that array.... whenever i use ,

it displays 65, "NOOfElements" times (ascii of A)...on the other hand..i can't write

Depending on some situations, I or the user, need to execute a function (e.g., login, sending email, etc...) and then continue from the original place. How can I make one function to be available from any page from my site?
