Below i've pasted a copy of some emails i have been gettin through my website.. clearly this looks like spam.. someone just filling in random fields..
could you lot just confirm that this is what it is.. i mean. i have tried the form to email system and it works fine..
apart from doing things such as validating the form entries as they fill them in, is there any way to avoid this..
I currently have a form that is being used to spam.
I have implemented checks in my PHP files before to check against spam - if anyone can let me know if this will work for ASP sending aswell and what the correct functions would be in VBScript - it would be much appercited.
The PHP Code is as follows:
$testdata = $fromaddress . $fromname;
if (eregi("
", $testdata) || eregi("
",$testdata))
{
echo "Spammer Attempt ignored.";
return;
}
What would be the equivalent function for "eregi" in VBScript and would this kind of processing work in ASP?
I wanna build an email/messaging system whereby all members of a portal can send messsages to each other (internally). An example of this application would be the system available in www.friendster.com whereby all friendster members can message each other. Each member has his/her own inbox, trash, sent messages and so on. Can anyone help me with this? I would be eternally grateful
Secondly, i need help with building a forum as well. So far i'm having difficulties getting one that is easily customisable.

View Replies View RelatedI have an asp page that collects data on referrals. The user inputs the
information and selects the rep to receive the referral. My data is being
saved to a backend database (SQL) and the user is receiving a confirmation
page after hitting the Submit button. Now, what I need is a way to have an
email sent to the rep that is selected in the drop down list on the asp form.
I have a SQL table containing the reps and corresponding email addresses.
Is it even possible to achieve what I am trying to do? I am trying to avoid
sending a blanket email to a single address and having someone filter them
from there.
I have been looking for some time now, for a web based email system like hotmail, where we can set it up on our LAN. Have found some but all are a bit expensive ,would like to find as free ASP script if possible.

View Replies View RelatedIm running a simple mail system program which emails newsletters to a database list of 3000+ users.
The program loops through a database containing the emails and sends them out using ASPEmail.
My question is, is there some way i can validate each email address so that if there are invalid characters e.g. the space in "blah @blah.com"
it will skip the record and continue the loop.
At the moment i have a working program however, whenever the program comes across an invalid email address it stops at that record and prevents the program from emailing any further.
I am having a problem formatting an email message which comes from a form.
I am currently having difficulty with the <br> tag which I am using for line spaces within my email. I am getting an expected statement error message which is pointing to the line which is underlined below. I can't think what is causing this.
The code for my processing page is below:-
1. I want users to type in their email address on a textfield, and after users press the "Submit" button. The info will automatically go to another person's email to receive a compliment, suggestion, etcetera.
2. Another is how to include the message written on a textarea of a form with the ASP code supplied below: Code:
how to write to check verification valid email thru nslookup or mx record or dns record. Is it possible to do that. Is there any tutorial from sitepoint, previously found it but i lost the link.

I've created a system DSN called 'accessDSN' for a MS Access DB.
I get an error when running the following.
Code :
<%
Set Con = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Con.Open "accessDSN"
sqlString = "INSERT INTO Products(product_name,product_price) values('Gift Basket',34.54)"
Con.Execute sqlString
Con.Close
%>
Error :
Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation must use an updateable query.
/asp/l52.asp, line 5
Since details like database server, login, database etc is stored inside the
DSN do I really need to specify the login while using DSN
My VB programs works without login id but not my ASP programs..
I want to stick with VB on this project. The only problem I have with this is that I might have a problem with printing. The POS system is designed on a small 10-15 computer networked system. They are all good systems so nonone say that it may be a little to intensive for the systems.
Now once the system runs through basic checks: change exchange, enough money to pay, and other smaller features then it has to print the invoice. Now we have a small Epson Thermol (prints like Lazer) printer. How would my VB application send that information to the printer?
Microsoft, in one of its "Help & Support" pages on ADO, says that a System DSN is three times faster than a File DSN. I find that a bit odd for the simple reason that won't it be faster for a script to access a file to get info about the database source than access the same info from the registry which will be the case if a System DSN is used
instead of a File DSN?
i used the following script but it won't send the email. any suggestions why?

MyCDO.To = "allstar@aol.com"
MyCDO.Subject = "collegebound info"

Just starting to play with scripts, and need a little guidance. I want to check to make sure that the email addresses users enter in a form are identical before it will allow them to submit. here's what i have:
the variable for the second email address is EmailFrom2
'validation
Dim validationOK
validationOK=true
If (Trim(EmailFrom)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("emailerror.htm?" & EmailFrom)
If (Trim(Name)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("nameerror.htm?")
If (Trim(CityState)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("citystateerror.htm?")
If (Trim(SchoolName)="") Then validationOK=false
If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("schoolnameerror.htm?")
here is the script i use:
Set myMail=server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
myMail.Subject="subject"
myMail.From="me"
myMail.To=request.form("email")
myMail.TextBody="hello"
myMail.Send
set myMail=nothing
this script sends emails to some addresses but not others--and its based on the email service it's sending to. for instance, hotmail email addresses get the email, but mail.com email addresses dont get the email. i have tried sending it to other email hosts, too, and still, some work, some don't. what is going on here?
I have been working on a simple eLeave System. I would like to get more advice of my db design. Basically, I have 2 tables here: user and leave_application. I will just put the relevant field needed for leave calculation.
user: date_employment, type, t_annual_entitled, t_annual_actual_taken, t_annual_balance
leave_application: date_leave_from, date_leave_to
There are 2 values under type, E - Executive and NE - Non-Executive.
Example
- If type = E, t_annual = 22
- If date_employment = 7 July 2005, t_workingdays = 187
- So, my formula for t_annual_entitled = (22 * 187) / 365
So, is my db design and my formula okay for this system? Any other better ways?
Created a basic ASP/ADO/Access 2000 Newsletter system using JMail.
Basically client has 300+ subscribers and wants to send 1 newsletter email
to them all every 1 - 2 months.
Missed my client's call to say it wasn't working, but having checked with my
ISP (FastHosts), they have some kind of embargo on the amount of emails that
can be sent every 10 seconds.

View Replies View RelatedI am currently working on a site that's hosted on IIS. I need to implement a user login system for multiple members. Basically I need to secure mulitple pages and each member would be directed to a different page once they log in.

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to create an online class booking system for a project, how can I sort out the classes so that when a user selects one it gives them the date of the next class, which would be the week afterfor example if I book a class for Thursday then I will be told that the next available class will be Thursday next week. Also if it was Thursday and I wanted to book a class on Monday then I would want it to book the next coming Monday.
The classes are changed every four months, therefore having to put these in a calendar would be extremely time consuming. Is there a calculation I can use in ASP to automate this on the basis of the above example?
