Does anyone know of a way to enumerate the local variable scope? The
reason I ask is that I have a function that dumps the contents of
response,request,server,etc... for debugging purposes. I'd like to also
display the local variables.
Basically, I have an asp application that uses a database connection,
and I want to declare (create) that connection in an include and use it
throughout the application in various functions. I've tried making the
connection object a public variable, a constant, making the functions
public, passing the connection object in byRef, byVal, etc... I just
can't get it to work. Is this not possible in classic ASP? Code:
I created a ADODB.Connection object in Session On_Start and tried to connect to the databse On_Start. It is giving errors. Can't have a connection opened only once in a whole applicatio like VB.
The Con variable is available for the whole session but the connection state is not available for the whole session. Do I need to open a connection everytime I want to access a database????
I have problem regarding cookies collection in response object. the senario is. I have created a cookie on signin page using:
Response.Cookies("username") = "userid"
If i print the value of cookie on this page then it shows me the correct value.
when i print the value of this cookie in another page using response.write request.cookies("username")
It doesnt print any value.
I have checked for every security problem in my internet browser but havent got any result. i am using internet explorer 6.
I am making a testing project to get my hands on ASP classic. I have a question about Global Scope Variables e.g in PHP we make a file where we define some values which are global, e.g site URL, site title etc, and then we can include that in any page to get that value.
I read Global.asa works very good in fact we dont need to include that in every page to use stuff within this file. I read some examples but they are mostly about functions in this file. Can anybody guide me please how to define variables in Global.asa to use them sitewise?
There are many web sites on the server - each has a virtual directory pointer to a common directory containing frequently used routines. Scripts run from the virtual directory appear to have no access to session (or application) variables. Is this expected behaviour? Or have I yet to track down a bug?
View Replies View RelatedI have a piece of vbscript that returns the user logged on to the machine. it is as follows:
<script language="vbscript">
Set WshNetwork = createObject("WScript.Network")
stringUser = (WshNetwork.userName) 'store username in variable stringUser
document.write("Username: " & stringUser) 'output value to web page
</script>
Now I need to use the value of stringUser on other pages of my asp application for database queries, form values etc. I have tried to call stringUser from inside <%..........%>, but it doesn't recognize the variable. Everytime I try to output the value from wthin asp code, it just appears as blank space. Any ideas?
This has been puzzling me for very long time and no where has
talked about the scope of a 'On Error Resume Next' statement.
When we program ASP(.NET) pages then we usually like to let
ASP(.NET) stop at errors and report back to us. However there
are parts of our scripts that we know an error will be thrown
and we encapsulate that area inbetween:
On Error Resume Next
Err.Clear
'Try block
If Err.Number Then
'Catch block
End If
On Error GoTo 0
This is similar to the infamous try {} catch(e) {} blocks in
Java/C++, etc.
If we forget the last line 'On Error GoTo 0' then our ASP(.NET)
scripts runs over all errors thrown and we find it hard to
find bugs. So the big question is, does 'On Error Resume Next'
go out of scope when it's written inside a block
(eg. Function)?
Function Function1()
On Error Resume Next
'Our code
End Function
When the Function1 call returns, does the outside calling scope
automatically stays as it was (On Error GoTo 0)?
How can I give a user-defined object session scope? From
http://www.microsoft.com/windows200...asp/iiwaobu.htm
I gather that it can be done, but there are no examples. Simply setting
Set Session("tag") = new MyClass
doesn't work.
Is there anyway I can get the information about a file on the local machine of a user that is reading pages from my web site? Scripting.FileSystemObject does not have permission to do this, and I want to check the size of a file before I try to get it uploaded.

I would like to evaluate some shopping cart software to use on my next project. I am new to asp and as yet my hosting does not support it. Before I go ahead and upgrade my hosting I wanted to see how the various packages work.
I am running XP Pro SP2 and have installed IIS. The folders seem to be where they should be and I have access to the settings through the Administrative Tools.
When I put a htm file in the wwwroot folder it loads fine if I type http://localhost but the asp files are either downloaded or opened in dreamweaver.
Do I need to do something special to enable asp files to open on my local machine??
I'm not a networking/IT guy, but I was put in charge of figuring out how to use ASP to tap into an Oracle db for my office. I am using a windows 2000 laptop, and I want to be able to run ASP code on my local desktop (without being plugged into a network).
I need a lot of help here. I know I have to turn my computer into a webserver, but I'm not certain what I need to do with the IIS. What do I need to do in general to make my computer a webserver? In addition, I will be using a local Oracle database. So I wasn't sure what I would need to do to make that db available for querying with ASP. What is the best way to make that connection?
Anyone who can point me to useful documentation.
I am running this code on my local IIS and everything works fine. The code detects the file I select using the INPUT TYPE=FILE. The problem is that when I move this code up to my host’s web server, it never works as in it never finds the file. It is the exact same code so why is it working on my local IIS but not on the web server? It is ASP code.
Code:
set fso = createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fso.FileExists (strValue) then
'File exists continue with code
Else
Response.Redirect("aspError.asp")
End if

I am trying to set up an internet page on our intranet that contains logoff/shutdown and restart buttons.This needs to work in a remote desktop situation which rules out various options.
Next stage is to call this .exe from a webpage...which I'm struggling with. My test code (to test a reboot) is below but doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help remembering this needs .exe needs to run on the local machine and not the server.
I have a computer running Windows XP home edition and i would like to have a local web server for testing my classic asp pages.

View Replies View RelatedI am wondering if their is a strategy or tool for syncing a local
database with a web-based database? Specifically I have an application
where orders are entered via a web form and the data emailed to my
client who processes the orders. I extract the order information and
update a local "order tracking" database. There are several order
processing steps.
I want to update a web database to reflect the status
of the order as it flows through the local tracking application. I will
send an email to the "orderer" at the major steps, but my client wants
to have a web-based report shows the status of all orders for a company
that has pending orders. In other words a company will enter multiple
orders and will be able to track the status of the orders by signing on
to the web site.
This status report gets its data from the
web-database.....which I must update from the local tracking database.

View Replies View RelatedI have been teaching myself ASP for several months now and seem to have a pretty good handle on it. All along, I have been uploading changed files directly to the website and refreshing to test.

I made a image upload a while ago, but too many people submits too large images (this is no problem, since ASP Upload won't upload too large images) but people gets frustrated when their images are not uploaded!I want to do so that you can't submit the form if the pictures are too large. I was thinking of doing a asp functions to check the file size and then pass the result to a javascript function, which will then alert the user and denie him to submit the images.I know how to do the javascript part, but I don't know how to check a local file's size with asp? I'd appreciate if someone could help me! Thanks.
