however, this doesn't seem to work, as i get the following error message :
The include file '<%=fileToInclude%>' was not found.
it obviously is trying to find a file named <%=fileToInclude%> instead of seeing the variable my question is : is it possible to feed a variable into an include statement ?
if yes, how should i go about it ? if not, are there any alternatives ?
This doesn't work. There is nothing wrong with Session variables that I know of, both values are present when i write them to the page. Is it not possible to use vbscript within an include statement?
is there a way of having a file that's name is a variable (eg dependant on the user name) act like a include. i know that you cant define the file for an include asp tag using a variable and that reading the file using "Response.Write FSO.OpenTextFile(ppp, 1, False, False).readall" prints the file, and treating it like a html file.
how to assign a variable in a page then in a file that is included write a variable to an include virtual statement that's located in the 2nd included file? I've tried this but it doesn't work Code:
I got that right now but i want the variable, console to be placed along with news so when it selects from the db it selects from gcnnews or whatever variable it's on. How do I do that?
I'm trying to use a variable of retrieved via request from a form to select records.I'm pretty sure I am having a basic syntax error or something else basic. I retrieve the variable from a prevous form:
section_id = request("section_id")
I then retrieve some records and run the compare, if i use the actual value it works: if rsArticles("tbl_articles.section_id") = "1" then
however if I substitute the variable section_id which equals 1 , it fails the compare and moves on to the else:
if rsArticles("tbl_articles.section_id") = section_id then
if I call the section_id value elsewhere it shows that it is set to 1, so I know it's being passed, <%=section_id%> returns 1 . What am I missing?
I've been browsing this and a few other related newsgroups trying to get my head around this problem, and so far all the trails seem to go cold, without an acceptable solution being reached. I'm posting here because there seems to be a few MVP's knocking around, and if they dont know, then it's a safe bet nobody does.
I'm beginning to think that what I want to do is simply not possible - but i'll put it out there once more.
Here goes: I'm writing a content managaement system - and i'm making use of dynamic includes via the "read a text file" technique, and then substitiuting values into markers in the template. Code:
I'm trying to calculate the total time using values from database I run a select statement to find the timein column in my database.
Now how do i assign the result to a variable so that it can be used? There is only going to be one result because i'm checking it against an autonumber field. that is used as time 1. Code:
I have a page that calls itself using a form. The form has two select elements. In the sql statement I am attempting to match the values of the select element to populate a recordset.
The two fields in teh Access db are of type Text and of type Integer. What baffles me is that one sql statement works fine and the other returns nothing. I am having the issue matching on the bedrooms.
In the first statement I took out all other doo-doo and just matched bedrooms = request("bedrooms"). On the other one I used p.bedrooms but it keeps turning up empty. Code:
today a client asked me for an RSS feed on their website. I've never done it before. Bascially i've just spend a while on google and worming my way around the web but just cant seem to get my head around how the heck I make this thing work. I basically want to embed an rss feed on a website in a little section that will act like a news bar. Can anyone describe to me in the simplest possible terms how i do it. Thats an rss feed, as part of a website. Not a descktop application or anything, it needs to be embedded.Im thinking its the morning tierdness thats making me 'not get it'
I would like to create a RSS feed from my Access Database. I have an Access table for news which has the article title, date, and story in it. What I would like to do is pull the data from there into an xml file to create the RSS feed, so when users upload a news story it automatically updates in the xml file. Can this be done with asp? and where should I look for more information.
I have this statement which produces data from an RSS feed. The statement works well but I'm confused on how to format the {DC:DATE}.The date currently displays like this: 2006-05-22T08:57:00-04:00. I might like something else ie May 22, 2005 or maybe time.
where i can find a good explaination of RSS Feed and a example of it a working example of it. I searched google found some articles but it only tells me what RSS is an overview not in depth.
Firstly, I am not a programmer, so forgive my complete and utter ignorance of all things ASP related.I am trying to display an RSS feed on a website using some ASP which I found on this website - http://www.tele-pro.co.uk/scripts/rs...d_class_dl.htm I have downloaded the script and running it locally it works (kind of):-
However, when I put this page on my web server I get an error message:- http://www.ubsigroup.com/testing/
The ASP file is here:- http://www.ubsigroup.com/testing/rss...ed_class.1.txt
how to create the RSS for a static ASP site. I have used CMS before which has buitin feature of creating the RSS. I like to write own RSS for individual pages. The site in question is SIPLNET.COM
I could post the various bits of code that I've tried to use to get this to work... but it'd be kind of pointless as I haven't gotten very far with either of them (I've run across encoding problems, and problems where it works on the local machine, but not through ASP. I've tried using an XLT doc and without).
