and what i want to do is compare the difference in seconds between the two.
But I'm struggling and the thought has crossed my mind that DateDiff only works with dates not times...
Code:
<%
Dim DateToCompareTo
DateToCompareTo = 4/10/2005 1:00:00 PM
%>
There are <%= DateDiff("s", Now(), DateToCompareTo) %> seconds left %>!
I'd like to find the time difference in seconds in my ASP-code, but can't find how to do this. In php you have the time() that give the seconds from 1.1.1970 (?) until now. Is there something like this in ASP too? I have found the DateDiff that one just gives days, right? I basicly want to have two variables, time1 and time2, and show the seconds between them.
I am developing a simple booking system where I had a booking date. The problem is I want to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced for certain room.
I have tried to use DateDiff but it seems doesn't work. Actually i just 1 to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced from the current date. I am wondering whether there is anything goes wrong in my datediff function. Code:
I need to get the number of seconds when subtracting two date/times. With the code I am using below I subtract the two date/times and end up with a total of days like "1.56".
Then when I multiply it to get the number of seconds I am not getting an accurate number. I should only have whole numbers of seconds with nothing past the decimal point. I would like to be able to subtract the two date/times and get the number of seconds without multiplying to get it. Is this possible? Does anyone have a better more accurate way to do this? Code:
I have 2 fields in a MySQL database. The fields contains calendaristic data. I want to generate a HTML report and make difference between theose date fields. Is there a function in ASP to accomplish this task (like : "=dateDiff(date1,date2)" where date1 and date2 are calendaristic dates)?
Is there a way to response.redirect to a url within 5 seconds or something, so its not right away? I was thinking meta refresh, but everywhere I go online it says that meta refreshes are not a good idea.
not returning the "seconds" portion of time. It writes the date and time - but only to the minute. The seconds are 00 each time. Ex. 1/29/2005 1:47:23 PM is what I want and 1/29/2005 1:47:00 PM is what I'm getting.This is the result I'm getting on two separate DB's on two different servers. I'm sure there's some glaring problem I'm overlooking because I sure can't see it.
I have a column in my Access db that stores a number which is supposed to be seconds. How can I convert the seconds to display mm:ss on my ASP page? For instance, if the number in the db is 300, I want it to display 5:00 on my page.
Now these are lengths of time, not current time (AM or PM), so I dont want it to display the AM or PM. I've tried format(rs("length"), "nn:ss") and that didnt work. Matter of fact Format(), FormatDateTime(), and FormatNumber() doesnt work on my page. I've been getting the 800a000d Type Mismatch error. What am I doing wrong? Code:
I'm trying to set up an asp script that redirects a user after a few seconds on a page- I cant use meta tags to redirect due to the page structure.does anyone have any similar scripts they could share?
What is the best way to do an ASP/sleep for 8 seconds (pause script for 8 seconds)? I have tried the following:
EndTime = Now() + (8 / (24 * 60* 60)) '8 seconds Do While Now() < EndTime 'Do nothing Loop
But unfortunately that keeps the CPU at 100% for that time. I need something that doesn't impact the CPU, as this delay will be in a while loop that will execute continuously for a few days.
I have a simple calendar scipt that ask for time of event input. While I like the time feature I do not like the fact that it displays with seconds included.
Ex. Displays HR:MIN:SEC 5:05:30 PM
Desired display 5:05 PM
How do I get rid of the display showing seconds? I have changed the database format, but this does not seem to effect the disply on the asp page.
I need to convert seconds into time since for a message board application.
"minutes ago, hours ago and days ago" etc.
I have capture the time of the original post and compared it to the time now getting seconds but having a little trouble working out the seconds into time. Have used calculations (/60 minute), (/3600 hour), and (/86400 hour) but the time remaining is bugging me.
The code to show how long it took the page to generate in seconds ?!?, if you get onto the main page of this site, www.tgplus.net and loom at the left had side, it tells you how long it took the page 2 generate.
Been playing with the function DateDiff, and with it it's easy to calculate the difference in years/months/days between two dates. However, if i wanted to calculate the difference in Years, Months, Days, Hours, Seconds (a la Ebay bids) how can I do this? Is it easy or complicated?
I have been looking around at various design solutions for uploading a file using ASP and have found that many sources have devised a much simpler plan using ASP.NET.
My question is this, I have a box running Win2k Advanced Server, with the .NET framework installed. WIll that enable me to run some of the new functions etc. decribed in ASP.net ??
So I need to write the difference between the biggest and the smallest number in database table. I know that I need to take MAX and MIN from table, but I just can't get it work.
Example:
Let's say max = 5 and min = 1, I need to have it like this: 5-1=4 (max-min=total)
is there anybody know to code the time difference in asp? i used timediff, it returned a date, it should return a time actually. i tried the command in mysql n it's fine. but it's error when i switched to ASP. i hv refered to alot references such as sql time manual n other sites. but stil fail to find ans.
I'm writing an ASP app that administers an ISA server remotely. The fact that it's an ISA server isn't my problem I believe. My question? What is the security difference between disabling anonymous access and using account X from the web client, versusallowing anonymous access but using account X as the account that runs the application?
When I configure my web application to allow anonymous access, but set the anonymous process to use account X, my ASP code works (the ASP code can administer my ISA Server). When I disable anonymous access, and I log into the web application using the same account X I mention above, I get an error 80070005 when my ASP code tries to connect to my ISA server to administer it. I would think the above two options would be equivalent, but they're not. What is the difference?
I understand how asp scripting works and how you put <% %> around your server script. However this is .asp . what is .aspx? is this the new version ASP.nET? I dont understand how it works when i create a new aspx project in vstudio.net and i create a aspx page in design view.
I add a button and then double click it to add code to that button. I dont see any html code around it? In an asp page the server side code is surrounded by html code. An aspx page almost looks like a normal vb application, why is there no html code around?
A few weeks ago I was told in this forum that ASP would be a great solution to a large web site. I purchased a book about ASP.Net but have also seen info on ASP. Can you please tell me what is the difference between the two?
I don't know computer programming at all. Dreamweaver MX is the program I use. Can ASP be done with a WYSIWYG program? I have set up databases in Access & built web sites with DW MX I am not sure how to tie the two together.
