Displaying French Canadian Character Sets
I have an ASP page that displays data from a SQL database. It includes some Canadian names/address which contain the special accent characters...my ASP page doesn't display them properly. I have included the tag
<META HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
but they don't show up correctly...what else do I need?
Update: Turns out the source of our data gave us the old IBM codes, not the newer codes...for example, they gave us 144 instead of 201, and using the charset of 8859-1 won't allow 144 to be displayed. When replaced with 201, the character displays just fine.

I'm a little perplexed. <%@Codepage="65001" %> changes how IIS/ASP will handle interpreting query string variables - i.e. it will read the querystring as being utf-8 encoded.
However, I'm finding that it *doesn't* change how Response.Cookies or
Request.Cookies get read/written.
I've been testing with a little jscript asp page with the lines
if (String (Request.QueryString ("abc")) != "undefined")
Response.Cookies("abc") = Request.QueryString ("abc");
Response.Write (Request.QueryString ("abc"));
to take a value from the query string and pass it back out as a cookie. The test value I was using was r%c3%a9sume (resume with an accented e). When the code page is set to utf-8, it will properly interpret the urlencoded query as a utf-8 string. It will output the right bytes with Response.Write.
But watching the headers produced by the request, it comes out encoded in latin-1.
Set-Cookie: abc=r%E9sume; path=/
I checked the cookie rfc on w3c.org, and oddly it doesn't say much about how to encode/interpret cookie NAME=VALUEs. The only comment on character set in the spec is that a cookie *comment* has to be utf-8 encoded.
I couldn't find anything on the MSDN documentation that addressed cookie character sets either.

I used "Request.Params["sName"]" on the Page_Load event.
I could not read the French like "é" If the sName has French, ie. if I pass the url like "webFom1?sName='abé'", then the Request.Params["sName"]"will equal to "ab", the "é" get choped.,
What should I do?
I used System.text; and set Request.contentEncoding =encoding.default or
Request.contentEncoding =encoding.utf-7, none of them works.

i have a small project to develop an application that will need to run on a server.
Basic project principals:
1) Parse text from a web page written in English, to application.
2) Convert the text to French.
3) Parse the text back as a new web page, but in French.
I was thinking something like this:
(1)Parse as XML data --->(2) Use VB.net/sql to lookup and convert text ---->(3)Use ASP to create a new Page using the French Text.

i want to left join result sets together coming from two different databases based on a common field storenumber. They are separate databases as per management design.
Basically it should match rows based on the store number, those who don't have matches should display only the storenumber and no other info like: Code:
Store Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
1 x x x x
2 x x x x
3 <--No data in 3, just display storenumber
4 x x x x

What would be the most efficient way to check to see if a cookie matches a record in a DB table?
If the user's cookie matches a record in a table of executives, then I want to display a breadcrumb menu item just for that executive.
This does not have to be super-secure or anything, I just want to keep honest people honest.
If the information they submit in a cookie is also present in a table of executives, then I want them to see a comprehensive menu set. If they are not in the table, then I want them to see a reduced menu set.
How to go about comparing a cookie with multiple values or keys with a record in a table?

im a passing 3 fields from a form to use a search criteria against an access database table, i have set the fields a numeric values, what should i use to allow all records to be shown for a invidual value rather than a selected value.
Ie the form would pass
Location_id as 22
so the result page would see Request.form("Location_id")
sql would then see
where location_id = var1
var = 22
but i want to get the sql to say
where location_id >=0
what do i need to do

Before I created this thread, I've searched Google and used the search feature of this forum numerous times on how to do this, but couldn't find much.
Basically, I'm trying to pass multiple sets of values from the search form to the ASP into an SQL statement (Access Database).
I can only make it display different prices of a certain music type, eg all prices of rock. But it doesn't output all types of music for certain prices, eg viewing Classic and Rock records with prices of 8.99 and 10.99 only.
I've used the REPLACE command I've found and got around that problem of syntax with numeric/alpha data. Code:

I'm working on a project, trying to create an HR hiring intranet page. Basically, here is problem. I have a table in a database called "Title Access" that lists titles, and has software, email, and user rights associated with each title. For example, Network Administrator will get Office, Dreamweaver, be part of the IT and Admin groups.
Now, here is the issue: Whenever the user types in the name, pay rate, hire date, and title on the intranet page then clicks "submit", I want the database to create a new user in the "employee" table with that name, and populate the access rights in that table with the rights associated with the title. Thus, the "employee" table will now include "John Doe", and will have Office, Dreamweaver, IT, Admin checked off. Is there any way to do this????????????

I have taken over a website that was done in Frontpage and I am trying to move away from it. I am having problems with page 1 where I have a link that passes a single value to page 2 in the query string.
On page 2 I want to use that value in the query string to produce mulitple record sets. This actually works when using the fpblib.inc. Is there a way of doing this without having to use Frontpage coding.

I'm trying to set a session variable where two variables are seperated by a backslash:
Dim a
Dim b
a = Request.QueryString("Class")
b = Request.QueryString("Group")
Session("FTEClassGroup" & y) = a + "/" + b
I can't get this to work? I'm not sure, but is the backslash being seen as a string instead of the actual backslash character?

I'm having a problem finding/using an escape character with this ASP/JScript application I'm creating. Basically I have text sometimes that has apostrophes or double quotations in them, but they won't be INSERTED unless I manually take them out.
Ex: INSERT INTO tbl1 (vendor,reason) VALUES (81,"This is only a test, but there is an apostrophe and it's only going to make things worse.")
That apostrophe in "it's" is kiling everything. I've used the replace method to change it to " ' ", but that STILL doesn't work. I can't find MS SQL's ESCAPE CHARACTER. I've tried several directions of the backslash, but no luck.

The application should have a way of alerting the user if it does not recognize a character used by the website and give the user the ability to make adjustments to the unrecognized characters. The system should then remember the characters that have been adjusted by the user.
