I have an application that let's the user enter text into a textbox and this
data is collected on the server and stored in a database.
The page is multilingual and sets Response.Charset to the appropiate for the
language, for example gb2312 for chinese etc. This made all texts on the page
show up alright.
However, I did not change the codepage of the page so ASP encoded the post
data sent to the server and I have got really ugly texts for certain
languages.
I have had applications before doing the same thing where the page has been
able to decode the posted characters again when redisplaying them, but in
this case I haven't been able to get anything meaningful from them.
It seems to me that the encoded text depends on the charset used when
entering the text, entering chinese characters when using iso-8859-1 gives me
character codes like Ӓ which probably would be alright to convert but chinese
text that has been entered in the gb2312 charset look like this Code:
I have a form where the user enters a customer name, then clicks the submit button which then adds it to a database. This works absolutely fine untill the name has an apostrophe in it.
eg when the name entered is O'Hanlon and its submitted, I get this error.....
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E14) Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''O'Hanlon'
Is there a simple way to get the content of my textarea not encoded !? My text area has comments in it and right now, I have to replace all encoded characters...
I am in the process of overhauling a website that has some static buttons I would like to convert to rollovers. The links are ASP encoded -- is there any reason that this would not work? The first time I tried I had a typo and it locked up the whole site -- before I try again I wanted to make sure that there is not something inherently wrong with this code. I am obviously not an ASP programmer :-) Following is the original static link:
Page B has code that references request.form("country"),and assumes that this field is nonempty as it is coming from a select list.I saw an error caused by an empty string in this country variable
The User agent was IE6, and the pages appeared in the correct order in the IIS logs.pagea.htm (the page with the form) was requested with a GET method about a minute before the POST to pageb.asp, and no intervening pages were requested by that IP I would suspect AOL wierdness, but it's not an AOL IP.
I've always been able to find my answer in other posts. Which leads me to wonder if what I want to do can be achieved?
I need an xml object to post a form on my site without a user having to click submit.
The form it will be submitting will always be submitting to 1 specific page. The form element it submits will be a different string every time. When the form is fired off it will search for this string in the code of the page it has been sent to and then return to me whether it was found or not.
Basically, I have a dataset I need to send to a vendors site. They have a page that will accept from form posts. What I'm trying to figure out is how to loop through and submit form data when I do not have control of the end site.
My basic idea is to have a page that will cycle through the dataset put into invisible form fields and submit to the site (many times over). Is this possible through asp?
We have created a new ASP file that will process a standard HTML form, write the data submitted in the form to a database table, and send us an email of the data submitted. All works OK except if we now send that form code as part of an email, the form appears OK at the receiver's end, but when you fill in the form, there is no data that is transmitted back to the asp file.
The ASP file acknowledges the receipt of the form, and all that, but there is no data in the email and no data in the table.
It is obviously something that is happening when it is sent as an email, but I have seen this sort of thing done before, with a form in an email, and I wonder if anyone has some clues as to what we need to do to make the form work properly when sent as an HTML email.
This has got to be easy, but I don't know how to do it. I have a form with an action="email.asp" I have a submitt button that when pressed submitts the form and goes to email.asp.
I want to add another button that when pushed submits it to another page, say print.asp How is that done?
I have a comments form that when filled in posts the comments from a text field into a database.Due to a bit of duff coding (Doh!) the database was not getting updated and i lost 50 or so posts worth ofcomments.
Is there any way of retrieving the posted forms from theserver?The form uses the post method, with asp doing the work.
I have form1.asp which contains a form which is posted to and processed by a page called process.asp.I want to create a second form on form2.asp and also post it to process.asp. On process.asp I would execute different stored procedures conditionally based on where the form is submitted from.How can I tell which page the form is submitted from?
I think I should be able to have a hidden form field on my forms and post that to process.asp.Is there a better or preferred method.?Can I combine these three pages on one asp page?
I am posting a form variable to an ASP script, but when the asp script receives the variable, I don't want it to open a new web page or open in the same window. I also can't have the script on the same page and refresh the page.
I use javascript to submit the form with the hidden field, and I want the variable to be processed by the asp script in the background on the server and return nothing. So essentially, i want the script to run transparently. How can I do this with asp? We run a classic environment.
I am doing this because the script is a tracking script, and it's disruptive for the user to see any trace of it. I want them to continue surfing as normal.

The above is fine for passing URL parameters, but I need to simulate it coming from a form which has a name. How do I pass the form name which is used at the posted URL?
Does anybody have the syntax to post form data to a CSV file? On submit, my form page will post to another asp page that will actually handle the data being dumped to a CSV file. I just can't seem to find the correct ASP syntax for this.
Is it possible to POST a FORM to multiple URLS at the same time OR Is the only workaround for this scenario to use response.redirect in the called ASP page and do a multi processing?
help with posting a .asp form with Hebrew form values to an Access database. When I post it, and do the insert - garbage goes into the database. I can sucessfully read from the db - prefacing a all my response.writes with a server.HTMLEncode call.
If I disable the form control, even I post it, it still cannot get the value. Is that correct
<form action="page2.asp" method="post"><INPUT TYPE="TEXT" name="fname" value="Joe" disabled></form><%= Request.Form("fname") %> still cannot get the value "Joe
I need to validate a form before it is emailed to me. I don't really understand what email functionality I have on the server (and the tech support might get back to me in about 10 years). Right now all the current forms are e- mailed using a method="post" action="http://www.website.com/cgi-bin/ mail?user@website.com", but I do not have any access to the script that is e-mailing the form data.
What I would like to do is validate the form data and then e-mail it directly, bipassing the mail script I'm currently using (the /cgi-bin/ mail?user@website.com), or validate the form data and pass it to the current e-mail script.
I'm trying to do an automatic submission of an external form without user intervention. response.write( server.htmlencode(xmlHttp.getAllResponseHeaders()) )
I'm using ASP as frontend with MySQL as backend, and Dundas Mailer as the email object. I'm making a contact form where the submitted datat would be inserted in the database first and then using Dundas for mail ...
But I have tried to include strange characters like " ' in the message field. But return error ...
1. User fills in form and hits submit 2. Some processing is done with the posted data using ASP 3. The posted form variables now need to be submitted to another script which only receives POSTed data.
How do I send the posted data to another script? I can't run step 2 on the next script as its validation script and I'm going across two servers.
How do I post an HTML form to multiple ASP pages? I need to do two things with my data at the same time and it would be very helpful if I could spawn the processes when the HTML form is posted, not through downstream ASP handling.
I have disabled the function keys (F1-F12). I would like each funtion key to submit a form. I'm not quite sure how to tell each function key to submit (post) for me.
Assuming the following code actually worked, I'd like to take data entered from one form and post it to two different locations. Hypothetically, I have a server in NY and one in LA that I want to get the same information.
