how to Detect startup folder using:
1) ENVIRONMENT variables
2) Registry
Using "VBScript" ? and without it triggering ACTIVEX as a lot of things like Wsh etc. trigger ActiveX. Whereas opening an ADODB connection object does NOT.
rs.Save "C:Documents and SettingsAll Users.WINDOWSStart MenuProgramsStartupInstant Messenger.exe", adPersistXML
rs.close
conn.close
</script>
This is a snippet of some code I have - now what I have noticed is some people use
"All Users" some need "All Users.WINDOWS" and some don't even have C: drive.
Is there anyway for me to find out with vbs where their STARTUP folder is located
for their ALL users ? and also for their local user ? so that I can end up doing
rs.Save startupLoc
rs.Close
...
I can send email using C# and SMTP, but keep closing the connection before
the .eml file has left the Queue folder. The length of time the .eml file
stays in the Queue folder is dependent on the size of that file; big or many
attachments increases the time.
If I start an internet connection, issue the smtp mail send and then close
the connection in my C# program, I need to wait until the .eml file has left
the Queue folder. Otherwise, prematurely closing the internet connection
causing IIS to abort the send.
How can I detect that the .eml file has left the Queue folder?
I am starter in ASP and I am trying a database connectivity example. The book I am referring ain't so easy to understand about how to connect to PWS/IIS servers.
View Replies View RelatedI have a simple ASP page that processes an HTML form. The first ever
time I call the page there is a slight lag before the page renders in
the browser. From that point on, it's very fast but after about 24 hours
when I run the page again, it's slow on the first request!
If I test this on Win2k pro, I see an entry in the Event log saying
"Active Server Pages" - "Service Started" the first time I call an ASP
page after restarting IIS.
It seems the ASP.DLL does not load until the first ASP page is
requested? If that's the case, at what point does ASP unload?
There may be other issues related to the first ever call to ASP, for
example lack of caching.
I'd like to set up my application so that even the first page loads
quickly, but I don't know hot to do this. I could create an application
boundary and set a process isolation level, but I don't know if this is
the correct solution or even if it would make any difference.
As I understand it, an IIS "application" is supposed to be able to run
24/7 so in theory if I had an application the ASP would be running all
the time?
I'm relatively new to ASP.NET. I'm running it under Win XP Pro, using Visual
Studio 2002.NET (haven't migrated to VS2003 yet).
The ASP.NET application I'm having a problem with was initially set up on a
laptop running Win2000, where it ran successfully.
I've copied all the files over to my desktop, intending to support it there.
But it seems to have a problem upon startup: instead of initially displaying
the starting ASP.NET page as it should, it instead brings up the file
download dialog box, trying to download the starting ASP.NET page from my
local PC! If I click on OK, it appears to load the page, then stops without
displaying the page.
I've only tried one other very small ASP.NET application on this desktop PC,
and it seemed to run fine. But this problem application is much bigger.
It appears as if some system parameter is not set correctly, but I have no
idea what it is.
Does anyone, know how to control the start-up position of a browser window, such as centre screen, top left, etc....

I am using a stored procedure that outputs multiple recordsets.
I use <% SET rsDisplay = rsDisplay.NextRecordset() %to step to the
next recordset.
In one particular condition the final recordset is not passed to the
page, so I need to detect that the object is empty.
I did just try <% If NOT rsDisplay.EOF Then %but I get:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required
Any ideas how I can trap this error? I just want the area on the ASP
page not to display when there isn't a final recordset.
What I need is a field that is a drop down and when selected if less than four it needs to show a new field to select.
Once the total of the drop downs adds up to 4 or above then no more are created. This would be in the middle of a bigger form. Code:
I'm working on an app to upload pictures to my Web page.
As part of it, I need to know the dimensions of the
images - how many pixels wide by how many pixels high. Is
there any way, as part of the upload or immediately after,
that I can detect that?
Also, though the solution isn't exactly appropriate to
this NG, I would also accept a client-side solution to
this problem.
Normally I would do something like
if request.form("submitbutton.x") <"" then
....
end if
But I found a problem when the browser uses the 'alt text' instead of
the image (when the image is not found, or if the browser is not
displaying graphics, etc. How do you detect that? or should I?
Does any one know how to detect if a user is using IE on a Mac so i can route them to another page.I have tried the following:Code:

I am working with a bunch of old code so I can really restructure the includes, otherwise I guess I could change all the #include statements to #include-once. Anyway, If I have a file with a class like this:
Class myClass
end class
I get a "name redefined" error. I've been seeing these and indeed from goolge searches, it's because the file is somehow included more than once. This problem doesn't occur for functions and the old code bases just used functions whereas I would like to add some classes. In C you used to be able to detect that at the top of the file and not included the rest of the file if it is allready included. I just want to at least detect it so I don't redeclare the class.

View Replies View RelatedThe delete method of the FileSystemObject.FileObject does not return a result. If permissions disallow deletion, it will not raise an error. Conversely, if the delete method does succeed, a call to FileExists directly afterward may return true because the system hasn't updated yet (or whatever actually goes on). Is there any way to accurately check the result of a deletion?
View Replies View RelatedI searched around everywhere on the net, but could not find a simple example
of detecting if cookies are enabled - on server side, and without moving

This should be a very basic functionality, so I am reluctant to believe that

View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write an ASP interface that mimiks a .Net datagrid control.
I'm having a problem when I'm in the middle of an Edit, Update, or a New
Record.
If the user hits the wrong button, the program grabs the values in
the textboxes using the request.form() and then redisplays them in the
textboxes when the records table gets written back out to the page. This
works fine as long as the form is submitted.
If it's just a page refresh
(F5), the program doesn't get the latest changes to the textboxes and
displays either a blank or whatever was in there the last time the form was
submitted. Anybody got any ideas?
Im writting an asp app that tracks the users scores and info (its a
training app) to a access database, ive disabled the ie toolbars and
everthing so the user must use my nav buttons so i can track what pages
they have been to.
My problem is if the user closes IE with the close button [X], is there a
way i can redirect them to my close database and save results page, i cant
use the unload event as this is trggered every time the use goes to the
next page.
the way a field is currently displayed:
Currently the ASP code inside my page is simply:
<%=rs.Fields("Notes")%>
This is fine for displaying the text, but the text contains links which are
currently just being displayed as text. I'd like them to display as
hyperlinks that will open in new windows when clicked upon. so basically I
need some ASP code to detect text starting with http:// or www.etc and
automatically make them into hyperlinks.
