Counting Characters In A String
I have several isbn's that are eather 10 or 12 charcters long. I need
to insert a dot . after the fifth character if it is 10 long, and
after the 6th character if it is 12 long. How do I count through the
string and find out if it is 10 or 12 charaters long, then insert the
dot . after the first 5 if it's 10, or after the first 6 if it's 12?

How would you get the first two characters out of a string variable to make an asp:label respond a certain way. For example:
The string is "F112345678995" I would like to pull the "F1" out so that an asp label will respond "No match".
Is this as clear as mud?? If you need further clarification let me know. Also can you use a trim statement like in VB?

I know there is a way of stripping out special characters from a string however I need a way of stripping out "" marks from a string or what i really want is to replace all double ("") marks in a string with single ('') marks before inserting the string into a database. Is there a way of doing this in ASP?

In PHP I'd use the following line:
$parsedfilename = substr($parsedfilename, -4);
But I can't find the same way to do it in vbscript using ASP!
I simply want to strip the last four characters, but leave the rest of the string in tact! As the string could be any length, I don't know a start position.
Surely it's simple and I'm missing something?

I have this bit of code that stores the current web page address in a Session variable. I want to always remove the last four characters, such as E.asp, or G.asp, or I.asp.
I searched tutorials on string manipulation but all seem to take out a string in the middle of a string and replace it with something. I just want the last 4 characters removed.

I'm trying to strip out none alphanumeric characters (and a couple of punctuation marks) from a string before inserting into a database.
I've put in my code below, basically I thought I'd loop through each character in turn and pass it through a regular expression to check its validity. If it passes I'll add it to a global variable ('validString') if it fails I'll remove it.
But I can't get my Mid() function to accept 'i' as a value so it won't loop. Code:

I have these strings which are pulled from a database which contains both
english and chinese characters(big5).
e.g.
Fragrant Rice 10kg Green Dragon?
Broken Rice 10kg G.Elephant?
I want to split the string at the first occurance of the non ascii character so that i can get the english and chinese parts separated.

what is the maximum number of characters that a string variable can hold - i
initially thought it was 256, but after some testing it seems that it can
hold much more than that..

Code:
<%
sub number()
dim number
number = number + 1
Response.Write("Number = " & number)
number()
end sub
%>
This adds one the first time but when the script returns to this part of the script the value remains constant.

On access, I used the simple recordcount property, but on mySQL, all the counts turn to -1...here's my code for one of them:
[VBS]
set Count = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sqlSelect = "SELECT * FROM Articles WHERE Pending = 'No';"
Count.Open sqlSelect, Connect, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly
%>
We have <b><font color="red"><%=Minus(Count.RecordCount)%></font></b> articles!
<%Count.Close
set Count = Nothing

What is the best way to count how many times an image has been clicked?
I have an image gallery on a site and want to count how many times each
image has been clicked (clicking pulls up the full size image in a window)
so that I know which are popular and which are not.
I though about wimply adding an extra field to the database which serves up
the image details, and incrementing a number by 1 each time a user clicks it
just before the image is served up. What are the chances of this falling
over if two people were to click the same image at the same time?

I'm trying to count the number of occurances of a product as it is outputted from a database (the information has been split from the quantity so can't just use SQL)
I use - if RecordArray(0)="ProductName" then productoccurance=productoccurance+ProductQuantity
It counts some an not others or only a few. But the result is the same everytime. E.G, I have 10 occurances of product1 in the database the this script only ever counts 4. Any ideas as to what's wrong?

I need to display the count of days on the page where the start date is the result of the record set and the end date is the current date. So if the record set value was 3/04/2007 than the display on the page would be "3" ( with todays date: 3/07/2007 as the end date). I know I need to use datediff(d,???? ) you can see where I get lost.

I am trying to work out how to set up two counters on my site, one to track guest users and one to track registered users, like most forums show. There are loads of examples showing how to use the global.asa file to do a single active user count, but I can't find anything for my needs.
Has anyone come across such a script, or give me a clue how to write my own? All registered users are marked by a session variable called userLogged - which is true if they have logged in.

I am trying to count with time, like you can count with a date, but it's not working
In date I would do: DateValue(Now)+1
when I Do TimeValue(Now)+30, it does not display what the time would be 30 seconds later, but instead it shows me the time it is right now and sticks a weird date (1-1-1900) in front of it, what am I doing wrong?

I need to count the different values from within a database column. It's a "State" field so I'm trying to find out how many people from CA, from NY, from TX, etc.
I have no problem with the SQL to get the number, my problem is having this number displayed on the ASP page (it doesn't) ... I'm sure I'm missing something so I wanted to run it by here to see if someone could get me on the right path.
What I'm trying to do is list all the States on an ASP page and have a number beside each state representing the total for that state in the database. EG:
NY = 5
CA = 6
TX = 22
etc
Any ideas or suggestions on the best way to do this would be appreciated. I've tried some of the ASP "quick lessons" on the web but haven't really found anything that fits this situation.
