I dont suppose anybody knows of any asp code that can determine the format of a file i.e ASCII or Unicode , in the context of a function that will return a boolean value of true if the file is in ascii format and false otherwise or vice versa
View RepliesI have an ASP page which is pulling a date out of an SQL database and displaying it in a textbox. The database field format is smalldatetime and in the table the date looks like DD/MM/YYYY. However, when I pull it out and display it on the ASP page it appears as DD/MM/YY. I need the year to be YYYY. I have tried using the formatdatetime function to get this format but I still get the YY format.
How can I change it? I need it to remain in date format (rather than a text string) so that I can reinsert it later.
I am trying to create a form where the user chooses a country from a drop down menu and chooses a UK time (not necessarily current time) from another drop down menu then submits.

I am storing dates in an access db in uk format dd/mm/yy I wish to display these in this format, but in order return records BETWEEN two dates it needs to be in mm/dd/yy.

I am displaying some information from a database on an ASP page. I have a date field in the database but when this information is displayed on the ASP page the date format is MM/DD/YY.

I have a text area, similar to the one i am using to write this message, and i want to have the font toolbar like the one in Microsoft word as well as the one used here which allowes the user to select font styles, size, bullet points etc.
I am using web tandards so have several style sheets already so was wondering if i would have to go about it this way or would i use some sort of scripting language like Javascript. Not sure which way i am meant to use as this is the first time i have ever needed to creat such a feature.
It is switching between American and European date formats - this is causing problems on the page which use the Date function. Most of the time the page works ok but sometimes it seems to switch formats and this messes up the code on the page.
I have spoke with the people who look after the servers on which the site runs but do not know what is causing this. They have not made any changes to the date format of these machines. The website and the database are kept on different servers. Has anyone came across this problem.

View Replies View RelatedThis question has to do with MS file search but it is happening only with
..asp pages, so I though someone programming with .asp pages has experienced
the same situation.
I'm trying to find .asp pages with a certain table name (i.e.
"renewalInfo" )
When I ran the search I get no results. I know that I have that string in a
couple of pages. My file system search engine is working fine with other
file types, like Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
I tried typing the string outside the <% %> tags and when I do the search I
get the file results, so it seems like if the search engine in my file
system was not searching inside the <%%> tags. Code:
I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.
I'm trying to run the server.execute command inside a executed file. It doesn't work. Can anybody tell me why? I've searched all around and haven't found a reason. Could it be because it's not supose to work, or is the syntax diferent then in the first file?
It's something like this:
File 1
...
<%Server.Execute("File2.asp")%>
...
File 2
...
<%Server.Execute("file3.asp")%>
...
File 3
<HTML>
<body>
Hello!
</body>

Is this possible?

I have an asp page written entirely in jscript with a vbscript used as an include file which one variable on the page must access.
When the page runs, I run into jscript complilation errors when it tries to access the include file (since it is written in vbscript), and I can't figure out how to get the two to work together. How do you get both scripting languages to work on the same page?
if i got a file path as a variable say for Example:

File Name=file.txt
I would like to add a facility to my web page which allows users to upload basic files (word, excel, text, gif, jpg etc) to the server.
I know there's a facility to do this using HMTL forms, but I don't know how to handle the file on the server side.
What I think I need is an ASP file running some code to manipulate the filesystemobject, allowing me to receive the file and store it in the filesystem on the server. It would be nice to access some of the file properties too (name, type etc).
I've seen a few custom components online which allow you to do this, but I can't depend on installing them. I need to be able to script it myself.

There is a link in the asp page "Click to view Image file",On clicking on this link,The graphical image need to be stored(Preferably in the server machine) and has to be opened in a new browser window.
To explain in detail. On clicking of that link"Click to view Image file" a function is called which does the following
1)Save the image file(.gif file) on the server machine
Graph.ImagetoGif("Location to be saved",100,200);
2) Opens the image on a new browser window.
window.open('from location from where the image is to be retreived',100,some more properties) So i need the image file to be saved in the server and retreived from the server.
