Dynamic Dropdowns Problem
I'm creating a form to update a series of records. For four of the fields, I want the options available to the user to be limited by dropdowns. One dropdown is generated from a table in the database, the other two are generated by arrays I've written.
The problem is the dropdowns aren't picking up the value stored in the database for each record. The text fields are picking up the correct values, but not the dropdowns. For one set of records the dropdowns are only picking up the first (default) option; with another set of records, the first record's dropdowns are correct, but then the subsequent records' dropdowns repeat the values of the first one. Code:

I have an ASP page. On that ASP page I have three columns. Each column contains one dropdown box. I wanted to make them dependant of each other and I think I did it.
When the user clicks on the submit button after making his selection in the first dropdown, I have an sql for the second dropdown which will automaticly not show the first selection as a option in the second dropdown. So far, it's allright.
When the user makes his second selection and hits the second submit button below the second dropdown, same thing should happen with the third dropdown box and its SQL query. I use SQL to extract records from an MS Access database.
However, in the third dropdown I don't get the value selected already in the second dropdown, but the value already selected in the first dropdown now shows up????

My ASP page contains around 35 dropdown controls. If I try to open this page
from a Win98 OS , the dropdowns appear jumbled up. They overlap on each
other. However, this problem is not reported on any other Windows OS.

I'm using a piece of javascript in my asp page that splits the date into 3 dropdown boxes, one for day, month and year.
This works fine. The problem I'm having is that when a user first enters the system there is no date selected, therefore I want the current date to be selected in these dropdowns based on the system dates Day(Now), Month(Now), Year(Now).
I can't seem to get the correct month selected, I can only get it to write the current month at the end of the dropdown which is no good cos then it's in there twice. Code:

I''ve 3 to 4 or more combo boxes. On the change event of the combo boxes I want to fill the values.
Suppose I change the value in combobox1 the second combo box should get filled basing on the first combo box, in the same way the third combo should get filled basing on the second combo criteria and the fourth combo should get the values basing the selection made in the 3rd combo.
All the combo boxes are fired in the change event of the combo box. And please no Javascript only VBSCRIPT.

Creating a form that allows people to search a ticket database. One criteria I would like to add is to give the people the option to sort the results by selecting criteria for a dropdown.
My first thought was to create 3 dropdowns with the same name, get the data and add it to the SQL string. It worked great except for when someone decided to leave anything blank.
Here are my dropdowns here: Code:

I code that creates a calendar for each month and then it displays events from that month that are stored in a db. I need to loop through my recordset and display all the events, but I can't quite figure out how to do it. I am thinking I need to do an array. But I am not really sure.... any ideas. Here is where you can view the calendar. Code:

I am trying to create a site that has dynamic page generated based on if a value is present.
PROBLEM
I want to be able to show a certain dynamic page if a certain value equals to true. The page should be able to generate values from a db
e.g. <%=aspscript%>
And if the value equals to false, then the page should not appear at all.
I tried using SSI (Server side inlcudes) but cant append variable names to it or use them with if then statements

I would like to have some text appear in a different color if it matches a result in a database. I am not sure how the syntax would work, this is what I have come up with so far. Not sure how to insert it.
If <%=(Picks.Fields.Item("Pick1").Value)%> = <%=(Results.Fields.Item("Pick1").Value)%> then class="style1"
Is this possible? and if it is does it have to be entered for each occurance of the dynamic text or can it be added to css?

I need to create a bunch of sites with slightly dynamic CSS. Basically,
all the image paths in the CSS need to be dynamic, depending on the
values of certain ASP variables.
I can think of 3 ways to do this:
1. Write a script to create a semi-dynamic CSS file, which will be run
whenever we need to make changes to the ASP variables controlling the
image paths.
2. Have an ASP script generate the CSS on the fly:
<link href="dynamiccss.asp" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
3. Put all static CSS in a normal CSS file, and have a special dynamic
style sheet for only those rules that require variability. We could
either use method 2 above to generate a second style sheet, or place
dynamic rules directly in the actual asp pages.

I have a form element and the name is dynamic
name="<%=cnum%>"
i now need to do this but it's telling me that it needs an to be a string.
JobsToUpdate = Split(request.QueryString(cnum),",")
and what would be ideal is the value of Jobstoupdate will be
This Cnum ->cnum=Split(request.QueryString("staticcnum"),",")
Hopefully I explained it well enough.

I have been searching for tutorials everywhere on how I could make a menu that is multi levels but that can be updated dynamically through asp...so basically when I add a link in the database it will update the menu...now I know how to pretty much pull links from the database for a basic menu...but lets say there is a link called about us and under about us there is more options to choose from.
How would i code this so the menu would know which ones were parents and which ones where childs? And does anyone know of a good tutorial, or of an example. and basically I want this because I would like to create a content manager...but I don't understand how the menu would work when pulling data from a database.

Is there any way to dynamically generate an include file based on a variable passed to the asp page via a url ?- so for example:
Person x clicks on a url - that ur directs them to template.asp (template.asp has no code in it other than page title etc and <!--#include file="<%variable%>" --> )
Once in template.asp the page loads the include file that is relevant to the companies website that the link was clicked from.
In that include file will be the correct form and stylesheet setting for that company.
What we are trying to do is achieve a global template file which multiple customers can direct peo[ple through and all the data is therefore stored in one central repository.
The file displayed when they reach template.asp will depend on the url they clicked. Basically how can i get the url to pass the variable which the include file will then load??

For some of my pages I currently have part of the URL as being 'ourservices.asp?ID=1' (its got nothing to do with sessions) and I am currently changing part of it so its more SE-friendly - i.e. 'ourservices.asp?services=website-marketing'. However following Googles guidlines regarding dynamic URL's,. it says that some search engines don't crawl pages which have a '?' in them for fear of them being a session URL (which mine isn't).
My question is- is there any alternative that I can use to replace the '?' with another character for my dynamic URL. Or, is this the only way I can have this dynamic URL?

I've been writing a website for dynamic access, meaning any customer can login to their website (I run a website business) and edit pages. However I'm having a delima of how I should write this part, I'm storing everything in a Access database and accessing it using SQL. The user can create a link, and then select the page it links to using a dropdown list to create links on the navigation menu. Now they need to create the page, and I'm wondering how I should store this. Should I store ALL the code (including the ASP?) into a Memo field inside access, or should I create a 'first half' asp page and a 'second half' asp page and then have my system store all the content and stuff into the access field? So basically the page would be assembled somehow:
ASP Part 1 - Starting Code
Content grabbed from Access Field
ASP Part 2 - Closing Code
and then just store the Content inside the field? If so, should I create 2 include files and then tell my system to make a new page, include part1, store the content, then include part2?

im trying to create a dynamic sql query based on form user input in ASP. The sql query is then used to filter through a table i have in access. So far i have managed to work with the below code which uses the input from the form and puts it into SQL format.
My form has a field 'PositionTitle1', PositionTitle2' and 'PositionTitle3' all pointing to the one field in my access database. My problem lies in adding functionality for the 'OR' to be used instead of 'AND' in this situation, so that i can place a value in 'PositionTitle1' and 'PositionTitle2' and both will come up in the filtered query.
Any suggestions on how i might be able to alter the below to accomodate for this?
